Bill Maher: Live from Oklahoma

Just a repackaging of some of his almost funny 'comedy" routines, I used to be a fan but his best days are a long way behind him. He just doesn't seem to put any effort into his act.

Mostly Trump this, Trump that. Old stuff, not funny nor imaginative. You could feel the crowd was just enjoying being present at such an eminent (I guess) show, not really enjoying the "jokes". You could also see that it was clear to Maher that he wasn't getting through (no surprise there though). he was sweating something awful.

Bill Maher is a phenomenal talent and I've been a fan for a long time. This performance was not up to Maher standards. His jokes didn't "flow" like they normally do when Bill is at the top of his game, and the delivery was just subpar. Also a lot of the material was just unoriginal and overly predictable. "Trump sucks, Trump's a dictator, Trump's crazy, Republicans are crazy, blah blah blah". I know the anti-trump thing is his schtick these days so maybe I shouldn't be surprised, but was just hoping he would tackle some new material for a major new standup special.

I will spell it out... pa-the-tic..... old, desperate divorcee/grandpa trying to earn a buck making fun of religion and politics he doesn't understand. Can't afford a tailor, in the closet, probably why he's on his 5th wife and 14th grandchild. Only people who are amused by you are hillbillies and satanists....

I remember when he had some insight into society with his "making women nod" observations, that took a little bravery. Now he's become the mouth piece of corporate leftism, zero self reflection, half the things he says would apply to himself if he had any sense of self awareness. He makes some empty criticisms of left wing safe spaces, but doesn't really delve into why they exist. He like most of these comics no longer understands that humor comes from insight into unacknowledged societal truths, and at this point there is no insight to be had, its all superficial. So really, what you are watching here is an 1 hour political rally, it isn't stand up, and If you've seen the humorless opening stand up of late night tv these days, or even Mahers own show, this is completely redundant, not just lame, but stale.
