3. Especially appreciated tonight, thank you.

The students awesome, yes.. .

[Rhiannon12866]

4. Thanks - and I agree! Tonight's was an exceptional show.

And, given all the recent news, we really needed it.

5. Maher's always been my Fri night "emotional comfort animal" to use his own words

(such a funny joke right out of the gate! So without HBO right now, wonderful that you post Fri nights.

[Rhiannon12866]

6. I know! That made me laugh, too - his very first line!

And I realize that not everyone stays up as late as I do, or even has TV or cable, let alone HBO - so I started posting the late night comedians when the news got so depressing that I figured we really needed the humor. And I've been a fan of Bill Maher since "Politically Incorrect," but lately he's really been stepping up to the plate and I think tonight's show was exceptional.

Thanks, Rhiannon12866.

Great clips. Last night's show was exceptionally good, thanks to the guests - except for the equivocating Amy Chua, who made me angry.

[Rhiannon12866]

9. I agree, great panel and those kids made it exceptional!

And I agree with you on Amy Chua, she was kind of a letdown...

8. Thanks Rhiannon!

Excellent show! Those teens were so impressive! It's gives me hope for the future. I am amazed by how informed, intelligent and well spoken they are.

[Rhiannon12866]

10. I have to agree, they made this an exceptional show

And I thought that Bill Maher handled the whole thing just right - he doesn't always. And I keep hearing that the commitment and activism of these kids is finally the thing that's going to make a difference this time, and after what I've seen of them on Bill's show and others, I'm actually beginning to believe it!
