Fran and Salman at the same table was a real treat!

brilliant

Exactly the word I used.

Just this morning, I sent the following text to a friend:

"Rick, go to HBO GO and watch the latest Real Time with Bill Maher. Go right to the 46:30 point and watch from there. Brilliant!"

you could have just texted him the youtube link instead of setting him a homework assignment!

I didn't see it on YouTube until after sending that to him. But I take your point...

Billy Crystal is always such a good guest.

I enjoyed Russell Brand also.

super entertaining episode this week. i love seeing bill lose complete control of the show.

watch overtime too. overall this is probably the most memorable real time since batman.

The Mooch is electric.

While the Mooch is somewhat entertaining, I'd prefer not to see him return. He rarely ever gives an honest answer and adopts many of the same tactics that made Kellyanne Conway interviews unbearable.

He was unbearable

+1

I've never seen a clearer example of a serious and non-serious person

Listening to that corrupt and pompous piece of **** is unbearable. I'm not talking about the Mooch either.

New rule this week about the wall was awesome

I've gotten sick of seeing so much Frum on MSNBC in the past year, but even I felt a little bad for him here. Maher was disgraceful.

please explain how Maher was disgraceful. he was right to shut down that initial line of questioning. and I say this as someone who likes frum and thinks the mooch is a clown.

you saw that he lost control of the panel, resulting in all sorts of crosstalk that never got clarified. It was almost like watching a bad cnn panel. Mooch is contemptible, but Maher shouldn't be giving "respect" to mooch's "courage" to show up if he's just gonna let mooch bull****, sidestep questions (such as the overtime one about the us's standing in the world), and go on about frum having anger issues.

i see, thanks. i mostly disagree.

firstly, i agree that he shouldn't lose control of the panel, because people shouting over each other is pretty much never good television. when this happens i wish he would just give a much sterner 'HEY GUYS SHUT THE **** UP THIS IS MY SHOW'.

regarding the other stuff you wrote, i'm sure bill's response to that would be 'sunlight is the best disinfectant'. he always thanks republicans for coming on the show regardless of what they say. i think his job is to get people like the mooch on the show, and then moderate a discussion, not to interrogate them incessantly. it's not like if he asks for a third time if a pussy grabber is a good role model for kids, then scaramucci and all the viewers are going to have a revelation and realise they've been wrong for 3 years. he's struggling to get guests as it is, going all jeremy paxman isn't going to help.

He should thank to DJT for winning the presidency. Now he has show material to talk about.
