Even though I generally agree with him, his show is absolutely unbearable. That he tries to label this as comedy is laughable in and of itself. Bill Maher tries to force humor and it is too bad to watch. He also tries to come off as genuine and intelligent which he is neither, yet he seems to fool his viewers.
... View MoreBill Maher wishes he could sh.it out John Oliver's di.ck. He is a terrible representative of progressive values. He's unbearable and annoying. gratz on not winning the 90s you old f.uck, either keep up and do something or quit. You're unoriginal and redundant. I'm required to write a fifth line but unlike me you'll just end up short.

Hearing your story, going to college for 8 years and constantly watching your show. It continues to be refreshing.The hysteria the hysteria. Gun violence and terrorism can be triggered by a text message from a big fish upstairs who got an email. Hysteria is manufactured and timed. But not on this show. Serious issues get a block. But so does everything else. Smart people also get a chance to explain themselves in paragraphs, usually without being yelled at by an @Orielly character.Mainstream media spews the same footage in loops -or from such a distance that it doesn't matter unless something horrendous happens. When I turn on this show I laugh and then engage in the political thought process. Can't wait for reruns on VICE.P.S. This show, is what political discourse should look like, probably what it used to look like.
... View MoreOne of the best reasons to watch HBO, is "Real Time with Bill Maher" a 60-minute program that is no holds barred and pulls no punches back. Comedian Bill Maher is your host starting the show off with stand-up jokes, then his program becomes real as he and selected guest talk about real issues in the world from political, social, entertainment, and environmental you name it. Unlike other news host Maher always comments on issues with a unique and bitchy comic twist, which being on a network like HBO lets him do that, making him much better from when he hosted "Politically Incorrect" on ABC. Even though Maher is a liberal democrat a fact that he doesn't hide he always includes a priceless panel of pairings of liberals, moderates, and even always at least one republican or conservative guest each week so that way you get to hear both sides of the story on the most hot-button political issues in discussion format. So don't miss it when it runs on HBO on Fridays at 11PM, check your listing though like most HBO series this is a program that starts each season at a different month. Watch you'll be sorry if you don't.
