Is Real Time with Bill Maher new tonight, July 19?

Should fans expect to see a new episode of Real Time with Bill Maher tonight?

Another week of the summer is in the books. For a lot of late night fans, the best way to close out the week is with Real Time with BIll Maher.

However, that has been a bit of a challenge the past few weeks. Real Time, like several other late night shows, has been taking time off since the July 4 holiday. But things did get back to regular scheduled programming this week.

Shows like The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Late Night with Seth Meyers, and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon returned from extended breaks. The same could not be said for Last Week Tonight with John Oliver which remains on vacation.

This week especially feels like one that could use a dose of Real Time. President Donald Trump’s controversial tweets, escalating tensions with Iran, and the lead up to the next Democratic presidential debate are all stories dominating the headlines.

Unfortunately, Real Time with Bill Maher remains on hiatus. There will not be a new episode of the show tonight, July 19. Fans will have to wait until Aug. 2 to see Bill Maher return.

If you still want some political humor to end your week with, then Last Night On has you covered. Check out these links to recent stories from the site:

• Stephen Colbert on Trump’s ‘send her back’ excuse
• Seth Meyers takes a closer look at Republican defense of Trump
• Late night reacts to Trump’s racist tweets

Real Time with Bill Maher will be off for another week after tonight. You can always check in with Bill Maher on Twitter (@BillMaher) for his quick reaction to the news. Keep checking in with Last Night On for everything from Real Time and the rest of late night.
