I always love this show, but for some reason Bill was getting on my nerves tonight. He was a little too strident with the anti-PC stuff and a little bit of a know it all with the last guest from NYU. Usually I really like him but he was just kind of obnoxious tonight.

Thanks again!

I'm not sure if he was aggravated with The Mooch - or just this week in general.

I added the Stormy Daniels interview - found it on Raw Story so I hope it lasts. They posted a story about it being "off color," so that may be why it wasn't included on the official site.

she would have gone more in depth about Trump (not the gory stuff, just what she thought of him), but it seemed kind of short. Anyway, thanks again!

Maybe that's why it was omitted from the official site - but I agree with you, was hoping for some more serious questions. Unlike most of these, we really didn't learn anything new.

but this one was not one of his best. Some times it's the interviewers fault, sometimes the guest. I put it on Bill for this one not being spectacular.

Really bothered me when he asked her what strip club in Ohio, she appeard to not like the question either. Why give that club any kind of publicity?

It was completely irrelevant. I really wished he would have asked her more in-depth questions about Trump, but he really just blew that interview and frankly, I thought he was disrespectful.

Disappointing that there was no Overtime segment on such a big news week, but that seems to happen when Bill has to leave after the show for an appearance.

On edit: I added the Stormy Daniels interview - found it on Raw Story so I hope it lasts. They posted a story about it being "off color," so that may be why it wasn't included on the official site.

He had trouble shutting him down long enough to bring out his mid show guest. I wondered why we're seeing him again now, turns out he's promoting a book.
