Jon Stewart took over “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” Friday, emerging from an onstage manhole to cameo during the late-night host’s monologue riff. Wearing a headlamp and face-covering, Stewart’s appearance riffed on a news story about “urban scavengers” that are exploring the underground sewers of New York City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“It’s awesome down there. It’s quiet. There’s no Citi Bikes. As the people of Brooklyn know, the rents are slightly cheaper down there,” Stewart told Kimmel. “The only downside is, down in the sewers, (Rudy) Giuliani is still mayor.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kimmel, who brought his late-night show to Brooklyn for the week, had been discussing local outlets’ coverage of a pattern of masked suspects with headlamps and crowbars being caught by surveillance cameras exiting manholes across the boroughs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I was going to go back down there. I’ve got Mets tickets for tonight,” Stewart continued, before drawing a groan from the audience of locals. “They’ve been playing in the sewer all year.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n
