A late night Political Programmes that airs on HBO. The show generally follows a rather simple pattern. It opens with Maher performing some kind of humorous monologue on different topics for around ten minutes. This is followed by him interviewing an individual for ten to fifteen minutes. The show gets into deeper political commentary when he moves onto the panel. The panel is composed of (normally) three individuals: one of these individuals is a liberal, one a conservative, and the other is a wildcard (generally an entertainer of some sorts, but increasingly people who don't fall into the political spectrum, such as reporters or people involved in international politics).

  • Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane had at least appeared twice on the show to discuss his atheism and support for gay rights, and also, more notably, to discuss with Bill Maher the controversy with Sarah Palin regarding the episode "Extra Large Medium", which featured Ellen the Down's Syndrome girl. In "Brian Writes a Bestseller", the success of Brian Griffin's Wish It, Want It, Do It. gets him a book tour that includes a stop as guest on the show. Other guests for that week's episode include Arianna Huffington and Dana Gould. On the show, it is revealed that Gould had not read Griffin's book, Huffington calls it a waste of money, Maher points out all the flaws, and Brian gets so nervous that he admits the book is crap, and ends up urinating on the seat. For that, Maher sends Brian out with a newspaper, calling him a bad dog.

The panel will discuss certain issues that are brought up by Maher, with Maher leading the discussion. Sometimes Maher will bring on a fourth guest halfway through who is almost always an entertainer promoting a new project of theirs. The show ends with a five or so minute segment called New Rules, where Maher effectively monologues on issues, with a picture and text caption to describe the issue. The final segment of New Rules generally leads into a longer and more serious statement on the issue (or any other issue that is related).
