And meeeeeeeeeeeeh...
I just got bored. At first I wasn't sure why. I mean Lewis Black does similar topics, and he made my face hurt from laughing. Also, I'm of like mind for the topics. Nothing w as offending me, or even challenging me. Then it hit me. Bill Maher wasn't acting like a comedian.
This is what I took from his show. Bill Maher felt like a good college professor. He did not add politics and religion to his comedy routine; he added humor to his politics and religion class.
Anyway, snooze.
