I never understand why the second segment interviewee doesn't get to be a part of the panel the full show if they can afford to stick around. I'd prefer that to bringing someone out midshow completely disrupting the flow of the discussion for a minute.

because they're not always as politically literate as the other panelists, plus they're sometimes hawking books/albums/whatever so a specific allotted time for that makes sense in those cases. who knows 4 real tho.

agreed. I don't remember it always being like that, but it's really obnoxious. I used to love the panel discussions (I skip the monologue/new rules), but now it feels so rushed through.

This episode was kinda boring.

I wish they were able to get more conservatives on the show. That always makes it so much more entertaining.

I agree, but I think Maher has been sick of them tbh when on the panel. I think in the last episode or the one before he mentioned how he can't have a logical/rationale discussion with them over them denying facts and living in a "bubble"

I was impressed with John Legend. I had no idea he was so up on his politics, that was awesome to see.

& ugh, I have such a thing for Chris Hayes.

i love chris hayes too...but was he drunk? he laughed a little too hard at that modem joke
neonxstardust 16th-Sep-2012 05:58 pm (UTC)
Ha! I think he was just a bit giddy. He had a weird reaction the first time Bill swore, and then was all giggly when he realised they were on HBO. It's probably down to Real Time having a different vibe to the shows he's usually on.
juicybrisket 16th-Sep-2012 06:04 pm (UTC)
im sure he is sleep deprived too b/c isnt he a new dad?

anyway he is adorbs
neonxstardust 16th-Sep-2012 07:03 pm (UTC)
That could be it too. Or maybe he was a little buzzed, losing it over modem jokes seems like something he'd do after a few drinks haha
juicybrisket 16th-Sep-2012 07:34 pm (UTC)
hahaha thats true!

There wouldn't be gaffe seekers if the right wasn't so prone to say ridiculous shit.

Good show this week! I died @ the Mitt Romney joke w/ the modem sound.
