Latest in HBO Real Time With Bill Maher

As the star of Judge Judy, Judy Sheindlin presides over the No. 1 show on all of daytime television (23 seasons, 10 million daily viewers, two Emmys) and historically she’s steered clear of political endorsements or partisan stances that might alienate any segment of her vast audience. That personal precedent went out…

Bill Maher is a famously outspoken fan of marijuana (and champion for its legalization) and he’s also notorious for his audacity (or, some would even say, his fearlessness) when it’s comes to skewering the powerful or calling out the corrupt. But on Friday night’s episode, the host of HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher …

Impeachment wouldn’t be a peachy experience for anyone not even Bill Maher who conceded on Friday night that he isn’t as keen on the endgame tactic now that it more topical and less theoretical.  “I feel like I’m the dog that caught the car,” the host of HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher said after months of…

James Corden last night delivered a pitch-perfect and well-deserved take-down of Bill Maher’s absurd call to bring back fat shaming in this country. “Thanks for that Bill,” Corden said before putting the HBO host in his place. "Fat shaming is just bullying, and bullying only makes the problem worse.” On last Friday’s R…

Bill Maher served up a super-sized portion of steamed snark on Friday night as he weighed in on the American obesity crisis by equating overeating to racism and littering as a behavior that should be admonished in public ways. “In August, 53 Americans died from mass shootings,” the host of Real Time with Bill…

It’s the salutatorian season right now and Donald J. Trump is still in the White House, factors which make this weekend the ideal comedy window for early electoral college puns. And that is precisely what Bill Maher commenced not long after tonight’s edition of Real Time with Bill Maher got underway on HBO. With…

UPDATE, with video Bill Maher has a plan for getting Donald Trump out of the White House – actually, a couple plans: Democrats, impeach. Melania, walk out. After calling on Democrats to “either do something” about what they’re calling a Constitutional crisis “or stop talking about it” – i.e., impeach or cut bait…

While right-wingers usually take the worst punishment in a typical one-hour episode of HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher, tonight it was noted progressive George Clooney’s turn in the barrel. Maher and guests SE Cupp and Andrew Sullivan all criticized the star for calling for a boycott of the Beverly Hills and Bel-Air…

Update, with video added Bill Maher figures there’s at least one beneficiary of Jussie Smollett’s alleged hoax attack: Fox News. “Fox News will dine out on this,” Maher said during the panel discussion on tonight’s Real Time with Bill Maher. Earlier in the show, during the opening monologue, Maher said, “Of course Fox…

UPDATED with video. Bill Maher closed a fairly by-the-book episode of HBO’s Real Time with an inspired anti-P.C. monologue linking leftist criticism of 2020 Democratic presidential candidates with attacks on this year’s Oscar Best Picture nominees for various sociopolitical reasons. “This time, let’s not eat our own,&#8221…

Update, with video… Jack Kingston can’t seem to find a friendly spot since getting the boot from CNN. First the Trump surrogate was rebuked by Ari Melber on MSNBC for calling Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as "a 29-year-old coffee barista," and tonight on HBO’s Real Time With Bill Maher he seemed to have been called a…

Early on in Friday’s Real Time With Bill Maher on HBO, Maher, who has gotten in hot water before for those I’m-cool-enough-to-joke-about-racial-stereotypes moments, might have had another one tonight. During Real Time‘s one-on-one interview segment at the start of tonight’s show, Maher was interviewing Republican…
