Real Time with Bill Maher is taking a break this week, with no new episode airing this Friday Oct. 10 on HBO or Saturday Oct. 11 on CNN.
HBO will be airing the movie War for the Planet of the Apes during Maher’s usual 10om time slot, while CNN is moving a new episode of The Whole Story with Anderson Cooper to Maher’s 8 p.m. Saturday slot.
Premiering in February 2003, Real Time evolved from Maher’s earlier series Politically Incorrect, which ran for nine seasons. The move to HBO gave Maher more creative freedom and a loyal Friday-night audience for his signature mix of topical monologue, one-on-one interviews, roundtable debates, and the “New Rules” segment that closes each episode.
Now in its 22nd year, Real Time is HBO’s longest-running current series and the third-longest overall, behind Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel (which ended in 2023 after 29 seasons) and Inside the NFL (31 seasons from 1977–2008). The show has earned twelve Emmy nominations and spawned two books based on Maher’s “New Rules,” which debuted in the very first episode.
Maher and team are scheduled to return with a new episode next Friday, Oct. 17.

No one gives a fuck about that Drumpf licking bunghole! Maher has been circling the drain for years, because he exposed himself as humorless toxic narcissist who demands everyone kiss his ass because he claims to be the smartest man around! The less mentioned of that ignorant loser, the better!
I do. U can go watch reruns of Howdy Doody!
Howdy Doody would be a more entertaining choice than that whinny little bitch who thinks he’s the smartest person in the room, when, in reality, he’s just an obnoxious dumbass who revolts everyone that comes in contact with Bunghole Bill Maher!
So…tell us how you really feel.
Thank you for asking!
Yo

Bill Maher is not ok! He’s Bill Maher, the whiniest entitled little bitchboy in Hollywood!

single episode as a matter of fact I DVR it so I can catch every nuance!
You need a new outlook on life, if you follow that ignorant narcissist and whiny little bitch!
