108. Meh. He's a stand up comedian. He has a little panel show once a week.

Oct 2025

I usually watch the show. I don't love Bill Maher . I see some posters saying he has a fan club here - I'm not a member of any bill maher fan club. . I mean is it okay if I watch the show??? .... is it allowed ???? ... will people be mad at me??? Am I the enemy??? I don't think I've ever started a thread about him, but I have posted in them.

Meh.... he's just a stand up comic. Not that big a deal .
