Celebrity Comedians
Bill Maher
After countless appearances on "The Tonight Show", "The Late Show with David Letterman," three HBO specials, sitcoms, movies and many comics' tours of the United States, Bill Maher found - or more accurately, created - his perfect forum with ABC's "Politically Incorrect." Critics touted the show as: "The coolest show on cable" (Esquire Magazine) and the "Best talk show on television" (TV Guide). The winner of two 1995 Cable Ace Awards for best talk show and best entertainment host, Bill Maher ingeniously mediated a hilarious and provacative half hour of spontaneous opinionizing. The casting/booking process brought together such unlikely parings as Jerry Seinfeld and Ed Rollins, Governor Lowell Weicher and Howie Mandel, and Harvey Fierstein and G. Gordon Liddy. Maher now continues his roll as the star and creator of HBO's "Real Time with Bill Maher."
