9 p.m. Friday, Showtime (no commercials) and History (many commercials) are airing “Drunk Stoned Brilliant Dead: The Story of the National Lampoon,” which opened in cinemas less than four months ago and at that time received 89% positive reviews from “top critics” surveyed by Rotten Tomatoes.
Liz Mair is a hot GOP operative who has been working feverishly since last summer to prevent Donald Trump from securing the Republican nomination for president. The roundtable guests on tonight’s “Real Time With Bill Maher” are Mair, Fla. Rep. Alan Grayson, and author Jon Meacham. “Bordertown” producer Seth MacFarlane is the mid-show interview guest. Texas Rep. Michael McCaul is the top-of-show interview guest.
