Trivia:

ABC cancelled the show even though its ratings were strong, and in some markets it was beating out "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" (1992). Host Bill Maher has been quoted as saying it was because the politically conservative Walt Disney Corp., which owned ABC, didn't like his criticisms of the government of President George W. Bush. more

Quotes:

Bill Maher: [the quote that some say got the show canceled] We have been the cowards lobbing cruise missiles from 2,000 miles away. That's cowardly. Staying in the airplane when it hits the building, say what you want about it, it's not cowardly. more

This was some of the best TV ever, 16 December 2004
Author: Janai P Canada (Sidadressage) from New York City

For anyone who might disagree, This show was great! Bill maher is one of the funniest, brightest people around. They keep taking his shows off the air and it sucks! I liked it when John Taylor from Duran Duran was on. It was great when Arianna Huffington was on and the people that disagreed with him badly. He would make people back down when they would say something stupid. In my opinion he is one of the most HONEST talk shop people. It's too bad that more talk shows can't take a lesson from Bill. I just wish that they'd come out with this show on DVD like Carson. It's just as good! Better actually. JPC
