With how fucked up the Late Night Comedy genre has been lately, is it completely clear that Bill Maher is at the top of the pack right now? Is he basically a lock for Top Four of All Time at this point? Hint: Conan sucks and the shit around him has always been a bunch of bullshit for gullible millennial redditors.
>>
>>214996538
Well, when everyone but him is doing the same dumb act, then he wins by default, no? And is Conan even in the late night game?
>>
He has been since Craig Ferguson quit.
>>
Nobody watches this pack
People stopped watching when Jay Leno left
>>
>>214996538
Bill is stale and predictable but yes that makes him miles above the rest
>>
He is knocking it out of the park with Real Time.
>>
I hope someone shoots this faggot in the face and it’s recorded for posterity.

There’s the catchphrase.
Do “shaping the conversation”next, that’s my favorite

Bill Maher has never been funny. How does any of this pass for comedy in the first place? It's just predictable political observations.

Used to be the "safe choice" for /tv/ but has absolutely nothing to contribute beyond a nasal voice

So phony even the normies call him out on it, can't even fulfill the basics of a talk show host

Passive aggressive, once in a while does a mildly amusing skit, carried hard by le short Mexican sidekick

Mealy-mouthed "centrist" who won't practice what he preaches, particularly when it comes to Israel

Everyone forgets he exists, for a reason

Mother of all tryhards, thinks he's a lot funnier than he actually is

He has been on an incredible winning streak with Real Time.

It’s a shill thread, it happens every Friday when a new episode of whatever bullshit this guy does comes out. Removing the poster count was a massive mistake.
>>
>>214996787
My dad watches him every week, but he did say that his stand up wasn’t great and my mom said that during the show he got booed a few times and said “and I thought you were the people who liked me!”

All in all he’s not terrible, he’s just another Zionist that was smart enough to call out some of the lefts and libs bullshit before it became chic
>>
Nobody actually watches Bill Maher right?

Isn't he on 1 night a week or something like that?

I watch club random only because it's fascinating how autistic he is.

He's good if you like listening to comedians talk about writing.
Also decent for interviewing people in politics or science guests, which most don't care for, and only really Stewart and Maher(just politics tho) did it well.

>>214996857
You have to be able to comfortably afford HBO to watch Real Time with Bill Maher.
>>
>>214996587
The fact he's never changed his stances on his politics makes him based. He's the only liberal voice I'm aware of who has any party self-awareness. He calls out the far left trans shit all the time. Him calling out Negro DeGrasse Tyson on biological males in women's sports was the best thing to come out of late night host in the last 10 years.
>>
>>214996760
Conan's strength is playing off and magnifying his guests.

“Incredible winning streak” added to the catchphrase list

NBC lost a lot of good will when they swapped Leno back in for Conan for no real reason. That's when they really lost the cultural status of "The Tonight Show"

>Jimmy Kimmel fan
Thanks, that’s the first time I’ve laughed today
>>
>>214996807
Makes sense.
The only one of these late night comedians who was actually funny was Craig Ferguson.
>>
>>214996760
Oliver's show is technically a comedy, but I don't think his audience is watching for the laughs. His deep dives are (mostly) well researched and informative. His antics are just a nice little way of giving HBO's money to anyone he wants.
>>
>>214996954
But ironically, if I could comfortably afford HBO, there's a million other things I'd watch before I watched Bill Maher
I don't believe that anyone is actually watching or listening to this guy
>>
>>214997132
Give me an example of one of his deep dives. From what I've seen they always rely on assumptions about politics.
"Oh you don't think that racial equity initiatives are important? You must be a dumb meanie!"

This country is a freak show from top to bottom, left to right. Virtually no media of any kind is worth consuming, let alone comedy, let alone political comedy.

A lot of the right want to paint it like you just did, but the show covers a bunch of topics political and not. The one on sports betting was great, they just did a takedown of Netanyahu on the recent episode.

The problem with this type of thing, is it's four times longer than it needs to be in order to associate the wrong side politicians with the story. Adding so much "entertainment" into what is ostensibly educational content is a way of generating consensus. The story is basically that there was an accident at a plant and the ceo tried to save face but because his industry is bad and he is a Trump supporter he is bad and let's find all these reasons why him suing us for libel didn't make sense. Oh, by the way Donald Trump has also sued for libel. But the amount of nonsense they throw in really does seem to be designed to make you not think deeply about the information they just presented to you. You're supposed to accept it as fact, without evidence, and move on to the next assertion.
>>
>>214996538
It's not really a good comparison because nobody watches any of these fake losers anyway, but the networks ran out of USAID money, and HBO as a premium cable service is insulated anyhow. So none of this reflects merit.

Conan's strength was that he genuinely loved the zanier Letterman on the 80's, and he had the writing talent in New York to back up that vision.
As Conan got older he never became a bitter old fart like Letterman did, but he did get so old he stopped loving kooky shit and so he became incredibly boring.

why do cringe 'white' muricans still put so much emphasis on their antiquated heritage as if it matters?

To the lowest common denominator. The people that watch this shit and his “contemporaries” are literal 65 IQ assholes that slam their brakes in the passing lane at those slightest chance of rain.

Idc what anyone says on this retarded website, fake or not, his takes are actually acceptable.
>>
>>215003295
Still no comment about cowardice argument, I guess Maher is 100% correct on that point then, as you are unable to stop frothing at the mouth to make even the lightest of counterargument, because of the aforementioned bootyblasting you've suffered.

i mean we were launching cruise missiles
but the other poster failed to omit a comment he made about al-qaeda (i cant be assed to look it up) where he called them brave, which at the time was the edgiest thing anyone could've ever said so he was cancelled for that. poor taste doesn't even describe it, but i wouldn't exactly call it "milquetoast" considering the climate of the time
>>
>>215006263
he's cable, not using public airwaves to spew his shit. I'd be pissed if he was doing his FOX News bit on public airwaves too.

the topic was about late night 'comedy'
>>
Honestly, it is almost insane to see Bill Maher dominating the Late Night Comedy genre with Real Time so much.
>>
>>214996538

His final "New Rule" segments are usually pretty good and usually make good points. That said, they are likely not written by him, and he just presents them.

I generally like that he gives both sides shit, as someone should.

However, I've tried watching his interview podcast and generally disagree with him more there, since that is the real him coming out. Especially because he is always high. It's usually his opinions on non political things I dislike... But he is quite a bit older than I am, thus I understand he is just another old man who doesn't get some more modern things.

Unlike the other late night shows, he isn't just a propaganda arm for the Establishment and he will call out bullshit when he sees it.
He rails on wokeism all the time (not enough of the time) and Democrats (not as much as he should). His pushback on COVID was brilliant.

The only time it's worth watching Bill Maher is when he has a young girl on his podcast. It's hilarious because he's so deluded he genuinely thinks he has a chance to smash, despite the fact he looks like an elderly exotic bird

I am fascinated by his podcast. I cannot stomach listening to it all the time but Ill play an episode every now and then because he's so ridiculous. He talks over his guests constantly, always brings up the fact that he "hangs out" with much younger people, he's always so proud of himself. But then he gets mad if someone does an impression of him. The clip of Maher threatening to leave JRE if he played the clip of Kyle Dunnigan's impression is hilarious.
