That's got to be the all time douchiest lineup. i predict lots of patting themselves on the back for not liking Trump.

Religulous was great and probably the only reason I hope for any moments of humor in his show.

Sounds like a "fair and balanced" panel.

This was the second shitty show. Better than last week with a slap fight between the woman over compensating her blackness against the republican dude.

Pitbull ruined it. That has to be a fairly pressure packed spot. When you realize you are an entertainer only and you are up there with professional talkers. He looked drunk or high or both.

Maher is of course super pro-weed and I'm sure the temptation to get baked before going on is there, but Maher isn't high. Or if he is he knows his sweet spot.

Cringeworthy watching some people on there.

I was laughing my arse off at Pitbull jumping from funny to serious and back again. Trying to look like he gave a shite about anything

Overtime on YouTube was near unwatchable. Pit bull made a comment about all politicians being full of shite and Bill challenged it. Threw old references at him? Pit bull floundered. Then they started in on his support of charter schools. He was lost. Like me wading into a Calculus discussion with engineers and astronauts.

It was almost as bad as Mos Def debating Christopher Hitchens and Salman Rushdie about nuclear weaponry. That was the worst, with 2 of the top 5 most intelligent Bill Maher guests debating someone with an IQ clearly below room temperature. Mos Def was banned from the show due to it, and I have a feeling Pit Bull will be as well.

And here are the clips where Mos Def is totally annihilated by Hitchens:

Nuclear Weapons
Mos Def has to be explained what the Taliban is

Edit: Honestly, maybe aside from Snoop, rappers should stay off of Real Time. They always make fools of themselves and are incredibly misinformed of the issues.

Can have them on if they can hold their own. And it has to be changed day to day. Put a rapper on the day a police shooting or police man gets shot? Pull him. Or at least put him in the pre panel interview. Would be like rolling Toby Keith out there after a Sandy Hook or something. It would be a disaster.

That show has some high level debate at times. Ben Affleck (agree or not politically) is a pretty well spoken dude. He got turned into a fuming, stammering, hand wringing arse clown. It was painful and glorious. All at once.

Some people are smart enough to shut up. I recall one show where Dana Carvey got the center seat. He would have hid under the table if possible. I can't remember why? Either something happened and it got heated or two people were debating shite above everybody's head, and all he had was Church Lady.

I think I would just offer to freshen Hitchens drink in a debate.

I really wish he were alive for this election. He would have flipped his shite and been the most entertaining man in America. Would have for sure been brought on as a major analyst.
