The overrun holds for what was the 1:30 a.m. (Eastern) repeat, though my DVR
guide has that at 37 minutes.
I continue to watch several days late, usually through my cable co's On-Demand
service. I just finished the last new show of 2018, which ran about 4 minutes
longer than they usually do On-Demand. I'll keep an eye on this as I
eventually get around to tonight's show.
FWIW, TDS on the CC website often runs full episodes as "Extended." As far as
I remember, that's been due to an extended interview that was cut for the
broadcast edition.

According to the program guide on the DVR, as of Monday's show, TDS is now
officially 36 minutes long.

This is a segment of their Between The Scenes feature they've had on Facebook
now for about six months. It pops up in my Facebook feed as a sponsored post
regularly, but much more when the show is on
break.https://www.facebook.com/BetweenTheScenes/
It looks like something went sideways with the Michael Costa shoot at the
shutdown rally in Washington, D.C., and they just used a shortened version of
that in the first act, then used a Between The Scenes to fill the space.

You're right. I've just been back to double check, and they clearly ditched
whatever they actually recorded for the second act and used that segment
instead. Looking back at deleted shows from my DVR, other recent episodes have
run to 39 mins including UK ads (Legally, we can't have as many as ad breaks as
US audiences. TDS has one commercial break in the half hour, usually between
Act 1 and Act 2. Other parts are edited together. Even the Moment of Zen
follows directly from the interview segment).

TDS has been running long since several weeks ago, to the point that I have my
DVR recording 15 minutes past the scheduled end time every night. On Comedy
Central's website, Thursday's show (including commercials) runs 36 minutes;
it's labeled "extended," which applies to the interview segment. Three acts +
Moment of Zen, as usual. What you're calling an "extra segment" was what we saw
as Act 2. (This is the second time a "Trevor talks to the audience" segment
bumped whatever they'd had planned for Act 2.) If you saw four acts, you got
more than we did.

In the UK, we get episodes of The Daily Show a day and bit late. They air in at
about 1am in the morning, the day after they air in the US. So this morning, I
watched Thursday's episode which I recorded last night.
Anyway, this particular episode ran long, because it included what was
basically an extra segment. It looks like Noah was just talking to the audience
between acts while they reset for the guest segment. Cameras were moving around
and were in picture in places - you could even read the words on the
teleprompter for that upcoming segment.
But Noah was relating, with humour, but pretty sincerely, how he'd rethought
his views on disabled actors having read a Tweet online. This following all the
discussion about Bryan Cranston playing a wheelchair bound character in the new
movie, The Upside.
Obviously, someone somewhere decided to keep this all in the show - or at least
the version the UK got. My DVR said the whole thing ran 39 minutes, but it pads
programmes - especially when there are no other recording clashes. So I was
just curious whether this version went out in the US too.
