Bill Maher has delayed returning to his HBO talk show during the ongoing strike by writers and actors, a decision that follows similar pauses over the weekend by “The Drew Barrymore Show,” “The Talk” and “The Jennifer Hudson Show.”

Maher last week said he would bring his show back into production, but on Monday said he’ll wait because talks are scheduled to begin between producers and writers on Wednesday.

I've hated him for platforming conservatives for years while offering the weakest counter-points to their sophistry. He thinks he's Jon Stewart, but lacks the discipline and hard work that goes into preparing for interviews with hostile guests.

Yeah I remember him having Rand Paul on and he didn't call him on any of his bullshit at all. That was when I stopped watching.
