For millions of viewers, Jon Stewart is the face of The Daily Show. He wasn't the first host, and he hasn't been the only one behind the desk over the past few years, but that doesn't really matter: for over 15 years, Stewart has been one of the most recognizable faces in both comedy and news...but as they say, all good things must come to an end.

When Jon Stewart announced that he would be stepping down from The Daily Show earlier this year, it came as a complete surprise.

There were rumblings that his hiatus during the summer of 2014 was hinting at an inevitable exit, but most fans had no idea that Stewart's storied career at The Daily Show would be coming to an end.

Fast forward several months, and Stewart's run is almost over.

That being said, Comedy Central's not about to let Stewart go without some ceremony - but how to you celebrate nearly 2,000 episodes of a television show? A montage? A 'best-of' compilation?

How about a streaming marathon of every episode Stewart's ever hosted?

It sounds ridiculous, but it's true: Comedy Central is streaming every episode of Stewart's 16-year-run with a 42-day streaming marathon called "The Month of Zen." Every single episode, starting with his 1999 debut, will be available on Comedy Central's official site - just make sure to get some popcorn ready before you sit down and start binge-watching.

What's even better is that the marathon has already started, so you can jump in now and see what 15+ years of newscasting can do to a man (or, if you want something that's a bit faster-paced, you can check out this timelapse of Stewart's run).

To be honest, it's amazing to see just how much the show has changed in 15 years...and while it's sad that Stewart's run is almost over - at least Comedy Central is making sure he's going out with style.

If you want to check out the stream for yourself, just head on over to Comedy Central's official site.
