Politically Incorrect is one of television's most
provocative and funny shows, placing Maher at the
center of a wildly diverse panel of four from the
worlds of politics, media, literature, and entertainment.
Through heated debates ingeniously instigated by Maher,
guests discuss various opinions about
the hottest issues of the day.
Each evening, Maher brings together an unlikely quartet
of guests - from senators to drag queens, actors to rock
stars, authors to activists - to discuss the day's burning
issues, such as "Is the National Enquirer always right?,"
"Can a person be justifiably fired for being too beautiful?,"
and "Is Clinton the Democrats' Reagan?"
Called the "Best Talk Show on Television" by TV Guide,
"Politically Incorrect" is the winner of four Cable Ace
Awards for Best Entertainment Host and Best Talk Show
and has been nominated for nine Emmy Awards.
