Real Time with Bill Maher Season 19

Was Real Time with Bill Maher cancelled or renewed for season 19? When does it start on ABC? Who will be returning for the new season? In this post, we have summarized everything we know so far about the next season.

What Is Real Time with Bill Maher About?

Real Time with Bill Maher is a talk show that airs weekly on HBO, hosted by comedian and political satirist Bill Maher. Much like his previous series Politically Incorrect on Comedy Central and later ABC, Real Time features a panel of guests who discuss current events in politics and the media. Unlike the previous show, guests are usually better versed in the subject matter: more experts such as journalists, professors, and politicians participate in the panel, and fewer actors and celebrities are included.

Real Time is a weekly hour-long program with a studio audience, airing live on Friday nights at 10:00 pm ET. It originates from Studio 33 (“The Bob Barker Studio”) at CBS Television City in Los Angeles. In addition, a 10- to 15-minute “Overtime” segment quickly follows the show on YouTube (Live Streams), which answers questions posted by viewers through HBO’s online website for the show. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Real Time with Bill Maher has moved from Studio 33 to being taped from Bill’s home in Hollywood with guests now appearing remotely rather than in person starting with the April 3 2020 episode.

For the uninitiated, Maher offers his unique perspective on contemporary issues during an opening monologue, roundtable discussions with panelists, and interviews with guests. Maher headlined his first special on the network in 1989 and has starred in 11 HBO solo specials to date.

The executive producers include Bill Maher, Sheila Griffiths, Marc Gurvitz, Dean Johnsen and Billy Martin. Co-executive producer is Chris Kelly, with producer Matt Wood; director Paul Casey.

The political talk show is available on HBO and streams on HBO Max. It also offers a replay at 12:30 AM following its debut.

The show’s eighteenth season premiered on January 19, 2020.

REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER will resume with a new episode on FRIDAY, MAY 28 (10:00-11:00 p.m. ET/7:00-8:00 p.m. PT). Allowing Maher to offer his unique perspective on contemporary issues, the show includes an opening monologue, roundtable discussions with panelists and interviews with guests.
