"REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER" TO COVER REPUBLICAN AND DEMOCRATIC CONVENTIONS IN FOUR LIVE HALF-HOUR SPECIAL EDITIONS JULY 20, 21, 27 AND 28

REAL TIME Also Presents Its Regular Hour-Long Show On Friday Of Both Weeks

LOS ANGELES, June 15, 2016 - REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER intensifies its election coverage next month with special shows during the Republican and Democratic conventions. Four live half-hour editions of the show will be presented from Los Angeles, reporting on the Republican convention on Wednesday, July 20 and Thursday, July 21, and the Democratic convention on Wednesday, July 27 and Thursday, July 28 at 11:00 p.m. (live ET/tape-delayed PT) each night. Maher will be giving a rapid response to that evening's events, and each show will also feature three in-studio panel guests. REAL TIME's regularly scheduled programming will continue to air on Friday of both weeks at 10:00 p.m. (live ET/tape-delayed PT). Additional information to be announced as it is confirmed.

Now in its 14th season, REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER features his unique perspective on contemporary issues, and includes an opening monologue, roundtable discussions with panelists, and interviews with guests. The show has already been renewed for a 15th season of 35 editions, scheduled for 2017.

Politico has hailed Maher as "a pugnacious debater and a healthy corrective to the claptrap of cable news," while Variety noted, "There may not be a more eclectic guest list on all of television."

Maher headlined his first special on the network in 1989 and has starred in ten solo specials to date, including the hour-long presentations "Bill Maher: Live from D.C.," "Bill Maher... But I'm Not Wrong," "The Decider" and "I'm Swiss" (both nominated for an Emmy(R) in the Outstanding Variety, Music or Comedy Special category), "Victory Begins at Home," "Be More Cynical," "The Golden Goose Special" and "Stuff That Struck Me Funny," and two half-hour stand-up specials, plus the specials "30 Seconds Over Washington" and "Comic Relief VI(TM)." Maher is also an executive producer of the innovative news magazine show "VICE," currently in its fourth season.

The executive producers of REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER are Bill Maher, Scott Carter, Sheila Griffiths, Brad Grey, Marc Gurvitz, Dean E. Johnsen and Billy Martin; co- executive producer, Chris Kelly; producer, Matt Wood; director, Paul Casey.
