HBO RENEWS HIT SERIES REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER, FOR THIRD SEASON, WITH NEW SHOWS TO DEBUT BEGINNING FEB. 18
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 13, 2005 - HBO has renewed REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER
for a third season, it was announced today by Carolyn Strauss,
president, HBO Entertainment. The 23-episode season kicks off FRIDAY,
FEB. 18 (11:00 p.m.-midnight ET/PT); the series will go on hiatus in
May after the first 12 episodes, with the remaining 11 shows to debut
beginning Aug. 19, wrapping the season Nov. 4.
"Throughout the recent presidential campaign, REAL TIME WITH BILL
MAHER showed once again why Maher is regarded one of the most
provocative and insightful voices on the comedy scene," observed
Strauss. "We look forward to another season of his distinctive,
fearless commentary."
Allowing Maher to offer his unique perspective on contemporary issues,
REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER includes an opening monologue, roundtable
discussions with panelists, and interviews with in-studio and
satellite guests. The series' 23-episode second season wrapped last
November.
Maher was the creator and host of "Politically Incorrect," which was
produced by HBO Downtown Productions and debuted on Comedy Central in
1993. The series moved to ABC in 1997, where Brad Grey Television
joined HBO Downtown Productions as producers, and ended its run in
2002.
Maher's other HBO credits include four hour-long specials - "Victory
Begins at Home," "Be More Cynical," "The Golden Goose Special" and
"Stuff That Struck Me Funny" -- plus "30 Seconds Over Washington," two
half-hour stand-up specials, and "Comic Relief VI(tm)." He is the
author of the books "When You Ride Alone You Ride with Bin Laden:
What the Government Should Be Telling Us to Help Fight the War on
Terrorism," "Does Anybody Have a Problem with That? Politically
Incorrect's Greatest Hits" and "True Story."
REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER is produced by HBO in association with Brad
Grey Television. The executive producers are Bill Maher, Scott
Carter, Brad Grey, Marc Gurvitz and Sheila Griffiths.
