Bill Maher has got to lose the smugness. That ain't sexy, that ain't cool. He's like the David Letterman of slasher news as in he's good but he is so fookin' smug.
There's too much Hollywood in Bill Maher for my taste and I really don't have much use for endless atheism as I get it, dude. It's so cool, man. Your attitude is like, well, half the people in England but it's hip, really.
There's a strong sense of playing to the crowd in his set and that's Fox News. His material is accurate but he's still using the same technique in mugging for the camera and playing to the stuff that seems poll-driven it's so predictable.
Unless Maher grows some balls, I see him on a strong fade.
Abby Martin is almost tragic as she initiated the Slasher Queen model ... but ... she's not funny. In conversation she's witty and charming and you will definitely want to take her home. She says no but you see right through her, don't you.
Martin is deadly in the depth to which she will probe a topic but her purpose is hard-edge investigative journalism and there is no room for comedy in that. To some arguable extent she is right as entertaining goes up to what is eating Maher just now. If you get too focused on the entertainment and the ratings, the depth of the incision in your content is reduced by it.
However, comedy is one excellent delivery vehicle. John Oliver is right onto this as his topics are deadly as well but the delivery via comedy takes them out to an exceptional audience. It really is exceptional, tho, as they're smart, motivated, and open to listening. You want those ones.
Note 1: Exceptional like awesome is a word that once meant something.
Note 2: See right through her above is a reference to "Jeanny" and perhaps that's obvious but it concerns me it's not.
