Bill Maher has delayed returning to his HBO talk show during the ongoing strike by writers and actors, a decision that follows similar pauses over the weekend by “The Drew Barrymore Show,” “The Talk” and “The Jennifer Hudson Show.”

Maher last week said he would bring his show back into production, but on Monday said he’ll wait because talks are scheduled to begin between producers and writers on Wednesday.

He's definitely a douche. And that's probably too kind of a term (shit stain is more accurate). To put it simply, it wouldn't surprise me if tomorrow the same allegations being thrown at Russell Brand were thrown at Bill Maher.

And even if they were false, it just goes to show how little I think of his quality as a person that that wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.
