The show will air simultaneously on Comedy Central, MTV, VH1, Spike, BET, Nick at Nite, MTV2, CMT, TV Land, Centric, Logo, MTVU and VH1 Classic, among others. The Daily Show's national ads will remain the same across the simulcast.

The network made the announcement this morning, as Noah met with reporters to debut his new Daily Show set. 

This will be the second time in a month that Viacom has utilized its cable networks for a simulcast.
