Bill Maher has ALL Democrats on tonight's show!

Cross-posted from the TV Chat Forum:



I'm not much of a Maher fan, but his normal m.o. is to book one Dem pundit or politician on the show, and surround that person with loud, angry conservatives.

Kara Swisher is suspect to me too, given her too-oft defenses of Musk and the reply she gave to Nicole Wallace when asked about the Paramount+ CBS merger and destruction of news-- and other similar trends. Her reply was "so what?" (meaning, I guess, it needed to happen and would work itself out). But, it was so cavalier, I could have reached through my IPhone and throttled her.

sometimes he's still funny, and sometimes I learn stuff. I just hold my nose and try not to throw up when he spews propaganda and has moronic guests.

As we all know, he had dinner at the White House with Trump. I'm kind of ambivalent about that. However the worst part of it was he had to mention that he had dinner with Trump EVERY SHOW for about the next year.

I gave up on him years ago. I can't think of any reason to tune in now.

People that still like him and watch him can keep on liking him and watching him. I have no issue with them. I'm just not one of them anymore.

To each his own.

That's a common occurrence on Friday nights. Most of the late show hosts take Friday nights off.

... but HBO renews him every year, so I guess he's doing OK.
