    This is actually great representation for comedians who have never told a funny joke.

  2. There goes the prestige for that award. Bill Maher is about as funny as a school bus accident.

    No real comedian would step foot in the KC right now, meanwhile Maher’s been sleeping on the doorstep for weeks.

    Bill Maher is the kind of comedian we need now. One that unites us all. In our hatred of him.

    Bill Maher is qualified as a comedian like Donald Trump is qualified as a president.

    Are they really?

  6. I used to watch him years ago because he was controversial, but I don’t think he is that funny or influential to receive this award. Steven Colbert or Bill Burr would be better suited for this award IMHO.

  7. Strap some magnets to Samuel Clemens in his grave. He is now a perpetual clean energy generator based on how much he is spinning.

    Also Rob Schneider gonna have to wait his turn after Greg Gutfield next year.

    The Kennedy Center just needed another wrecking ball now didn’t it.

    He wasn’t even invited to the Riyadh Comedy Festival because he’s so bad at his business.

  10. I’ve done standup for more than 10 years. I’ve heard other comics refer to a litany of “hacks” as their initial inspiration to do standup. From the blue collar guys, to Jeff Dunham, to fucking Gallagher. Never, once, has any comic Ive met even said a positive thing about Maher. And comics like comics. Why on earth would you give an award to the least funny person to ever hold a mic?

    „See, conservatives, they drive the car like *this*, but liberals, they drive the car like *this*….“ –every Bill Maher joke

    The Maher show has but two people that laugh at his jokes. The one guy who’s paid to „Woo“, and Bill himself.

    How can someone who isnt and never has been funny get a comedy award?

    If Bill Maher had even a quarter of the intelligence and integrity of someone like Jon Stewart this comment section and his reputation would still be in tact.

    But the man just keeps spiraling, or just showing who he really always was like Elon or something?

    He can’t get anyone on his show anymore because he’s alienated everyone worthwhile.

    Well it wouldn’t be a Trump era award without the recipient crying until they got it. The pro war stuff really worked. I wonder when and where the ceremony will be with Kennedy Center being „closed for remodeling“.
