CNN has announced it is adding a replay of Real Time with Bill Maher to its weekend lineup.
The show — which originally airs on Friday evenings on HBO — will begin airing on CNN on Saturdays at 8:00 PM ET on March 23rd.
“The addition of Real Time With Bill Maher to CNN’s weekend primetime lineup marks the start of a commitment and investment into topical entertainment programming that we’re bringing to the weekends,” said Amy Entelis, CNN Executive Vice President of Talent, CNN Originals and Creative Development for CNN Worldwide.
“We’ve seen that audiences enjoy Bill’s perspective and approach to news and information, and we’re looking forward to the show now being on CNN.”
Real Time with Bill Maher is in its 22nd season. The “Overtime” segment of the show had previously been shown on CNN on Friday evenings at 11:30 PM ET. That will end with the entire hour-long show receiving an encore presentation on Saturdays in primetime.
