HBO’s long-standing show “Real Time with Bill Maher,” (hosted by Bill Maher) survived the strike and despite a late start last fall, it continues to air new episodes nearly every week. And while they might not be every week, those new episodes will continue for a long time, as HBO has already extended the show’s run through 2026.
But you probably already know about the renewal, which means you’re here because you’re wondering – is “Real Time with Bill Maher” new tonight? We have an answer for you, don't worry.
And the answer is: No. “Real Time With Bill Maher” is taking the week off. Instead, HBO is showing a repeat of last week’s March 29 episode. But the break won’t be long — the show will be back on April 12.
The March 29 episode of “Real Time” featured a one-on-one interview with Jonathan Haidt, social psychologist at the NYU Stern School of Business and author of “The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness.”
Meanwhile, the panel discussion featured CNN’s Fareed Zakaria, author of “Age of Revolutions: Progress and Backlash from 1600 to the Present,” and Dr. Mark T. Esper, former U.S. Secretary of Defense under President Trump and author of the memoir “A Sacred Oath: Memoirs of a Secretary of Defense During Extraordinary Times.”
So if you missed it, now you have a better idea of whether you’d like to catch up.
The executive producers of “Real Time With Bill Maher” are Bill Maher, Sheila Griffiths, Marc Gurvitz, Dean Johnsen, Billy Martin; co-executive producer, Chris Kelly; producer, Matt Wood; director, Paul Casey.
