(2,574 posts)That last line of the monologue actually caused me a forced spit take. And Louis Anderson was just lovely.

(203,019 posts)I particularly like "I Don't Know It For a Fact..." and I agree that Louie Anderson was great - another old friend of Bill's and it was a much nicer reunion than the one he had with Geraldo.

(203,019 posts)Though I'm kinda bummed out that neither of my video OPs from tonight showed up on the Latest videos/Home Page and I know that DUers look for them there. I remember Skinner saying in AtA that it's "a glitch" but it seems to happen a lot.

(63,221 posts)Good show, but Geraldo is such a raging idiot! God, I just wanted to smack him and I am sure Bill did too. Everyone else was great though. I really wish Bill would have taken Geraldo to task more harshly.

(203,019 posts)I have noticed that he hasn't had RWers on the panel lately, how long has it taken for them to notice that they're not popular with the audience? And it's too bad that Bill couldn't get through to Geraldo, but then apparently his wife can't stand Trump, either - what does it take for some people?? At least he was reunited with his other old friend Louie Anderson. That was a really nice part of the show - that and "I Don't Know It For a Fact..."

(63,221 posts)Those were definitely the highlights of the show! Just wish he would leave the right wingers off. It would be ok if he attacked them more, but he doesn't go after them enough and that's what bothers me.
Rhiannon12866
(203,019 posts)Which is not popular with his audience, which I've noticed has become increasingly vocal. There are a few he's had on more than once that are offensive enough that make the show tough to watch for me. At least Geraldo came and went - and I'm guessing that after that performance he won't be invited back.

(203,019 posts)It sure helps me to see the humor every night - and I know that not everyone gets Bill Maher, or stays up late enough to see the late night guys, so it helps me to watch and pass them along.
