REAL TIMEBill Maher's Back, on HBO 9/16

On September 16, Bill Maher will return from  hiatus with his ninth season of
REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER only on HBO.

Real Time gives Maher a soapbox on which he offers his unique POV on contemporarypolitical, economic and social issues.

Maher's acerbic wit helps him strike to the truth of things.

The roundtable guests for the premiere are political strategist Rich Galen, commentator Keith Olbermann and political analyst Jennifer Donahue; journalist Dexter Filkins and comedian-actor Louis C.K. will be the interview guests.

Maher's slant is decidedly liberal, but if he catches a liberal doing something reprehensible or stupid they can expect no quarter from Maher. It's apparent he thinks stupid sits on both sides of the aisle. When deserved, he gives credit to whomever deserves it—Except maybe Palin or Bachman.

On my personal BS meter, he comes off as cocksure, and egotistic and discusses his own sex life a bit more that I like. Sometimes I find his views one-sided and sophomoric. But he's still hilarious. Even my 82 year old mother watches him.
