Bill Maher: #Adulting

One of the very few voices of reason and genuine liberalism in modern times. Thank you for pushing back against the illiberal BS being propagated by hypersensitive wokesters and the complete insanity of Trump and the Republican Party. Carlin would be proud.

This is just all the worst parts of Real Time, repeating all the hacky jokes he has beat into the ground on a weekly basis. So why do I like this? Because Stockholm syndrome is a helluva thing...and for whatever reason I'm mentally stuck with Bill Maher as my comedic abuser at this point.

I like Bill and he obviously still draws a crowd. I've watched him since my teenage years and Politically Incorrect. With Real Time, I tend to watch the interviews and his panel. I almost always skip his intro monologue. I've always thought he should devote his show to more interview and more panel... I don't see Maher as a standup guy. Funny? Yes, he can be funny but his standup... it just doesn't do it for me.

Like some of the other reviews here, this special is Real Time monologue in long form. Everything he says here is what all the sensible people have been saying for years(including Maher on Real Time).

I am glad he touched on religion in this special. Bill has always been loud about how ridiculous religion is and I honestly think he should've ran with that for the majority of his career.

Worth a watch? This is a put on in the background and listen to. No need to plan an evening around it.

This show is more than just a comedy special. This show is so full of insight about what is going on around us. Bill is telling it like it is (and always does) and is explaining why so much of what we do is ridiculous and contradictory. It only takes a little bit of intelligence, a little bit of knowledge, a little bit of a sense of humour and some maturity to know this man is right on the money with his observations of politics, religion, race, gender and sex. (All things that you are not supposed to talk about in bars.) I say that this show is a must see!

As other reviewers mentioned, there are a number of moments where you'll think "I've heard this before on Real Time." However, there are enough interesting nuggets and good laughs that I would recommend it. Last 20-30 minutes are the strongest in the set.
