Loving bill maher again

I think he has his hits and misses, basically. Monologue will sometimes have some really good stuff. The writing on the show isn't bad and the mid-show bit is usually the most consistently funny.

New rules is OK, and the final bit alternates between something a bit overdone and or repetitive or something pretty sharp.

His personality? I guess there is sort of a smarmy douche angle you could go for... if you take him too seriously. But I don't, I think he just lets it fly, is shooting the shit... that coupled with the irreverence and the sometimes insightful commentary make it a show I've consistently come back to for years.

Could someone younger/fresher perhaps do a better rendition of this sort of show than Bill does? Probably -- but nobody does. Bill gets a big a thumbs up from me for being his own thing all these years.
Younger? Bill is well read, funny, highly educated, and has a great knowledge of history thee things that are almost impossible to find in anyone.

Why did you start loving him "again"? Is it because he started calling off the Left? You didn't like him when he called out the Right? That pill a little too tough to swallow? You sound like part of the problem in present day
I like people who call out idiots on both sides.

Living rent free in that tiny head of yours brings me much joy.
That’s a pretty sickening thought, even though it’s false. You’re not fooling anyone by volunteering. I pity someone as old and foolish as you because there’s not much time for redemption. Repent, son. I will pray again for you.

Maher invites smart people with opposing views from his own onto his show to disagree with him. Yes he calls both sides out but he does not just do that. He provides the opportunity on his own show to be called out and it has happened often where he gets the short end of the stick in a conversation. He is smart and has a quick wit and can be scathing in his reviews of topics and people but he also can state things in a manner that acknowledges the counterpoint. Not to.mention that he is a liberal through and through but is willing to engage the other side and truly go after the empower topics within his own party that have no clothes.

The left loves and lives by the tyranny of the mob and want him cancelled because he dares to state the obvious. The very things the democrats should be listening to they instead are allowing their insane people the do things like go after Bill Maher. The majority should tell these children to stfu and sit down. The rot has gone deep. Look at this board and you can visibly see it.
 
I don't always agree with some of his takes but I still laugh when the jokes hit a little too close to home if they're funny. If you're whiny full on commie leftist you won't like him, or if you're a member of the MAGA cult you're not a fan, but the rest of us can still laugh at a transgender Trump joke.

Come to think of it, Maher is indeed one of those guys that sort of vacillates between the ends of the love/hate spectrum. Some of it's probably just marketing sophistry, but I think it mostly suggests that he is in fact doing something right.
