As today is Friday, we can only hope there will be all new Real Time on tonight. So, will Bill Maher be back on HBO this evening? We have the info here.

It’s Friday! Or, as fans of Bill Maher know it, it’s Real Time day. Hopefully, Maher will be back on TV tonight to give us an all new episode of Real Time. So is tonight’s show going to be new, or is Maher taking the week off?

I hate to say it, but there’s bad news. Maher is taking this week off, meaning there is no new episode of the show on tonight. It’s going to be much more boring tonight but the fact of the matter is some weeks the show needs to go on a brief hiatus.

No, this isn’t the end of the season. So the good news here is that the show will resume with new episodes next week, starting on June 1. There are still many episodes of Season 16 left to go, and with the show being renewed to 2020, it also helps to know Maher isn’t going anywhere!

When Real Time airs on June 1, Maher will be accompanied by some special guests. None other than Bernie Sanders himself will be dropping by the show. Charlamagne the God, Paul Begala, Bret Stephens, and Natasha Bertrand are all also confirmed to appear.

Every weekend is kicked off the right way when we have new Real Time to tune into. After some rather tumultuous weeks, it helps to unwind with a laugh before the weekend. Watch Real Time with Bill Maher when it airs Fridays at 10 p.m. EST on HBO.
