back his show, 'Real Time with Bill Maher,' while the
Writers Guild of America (WGA) remains on strike.
At the time, he said that “writers have important issues
that I sympathize with, and hope they are addressed
to their satisfaction, but they are not the only
people with issues, problems and concerns.”.
His decision was met with widespread criticism.
But on Sept. 18, Maher took to X to say that recent developments have caused him to change his mind, CNN reports.
My decision to return to work was made when it seemed nothing was happening and there was no end in sight to this strike, Bill Maher, via X.
Now that both sides have agreed to go
back to the negotiating table I’m going to delay the return of 'Real Time,' for now,
and hope they can finally get this done, Bill Maher, via X.
Other shows that have reversed their decisions about resuming production include 'The Drew Barrymore Show,'.
