The 'Real Time' host made a case for ending the cruise ship industry Friday night in an unusually quiet show with no live studio audience due to the virus.

host Bill Maher made a case for ending the cruise ship industry Friday night during an unusually quiet show with no live studio audience due to coronavirus spread concerns.

"If you hate all the things good liberals are supposed to hate -- environmental destruction, exploited labor, greed, gluttony and disease -- then you need to join me in calling for an end to cruise ships," Maher said Friday, as members of his production crew clapped and laughed in order to fill in for his lack of a studio audience.

The longtime HBO host also responded to Trump's Friday tweet just prior to the program:"At my request, effective midnight tonight, Carnival, Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, and MSC have all agreed to suspend outbound cruises for thirty days. It is a great and important industry – it will be kept that way!"

He’s right, cruise ships are trash.... literally a floating trash bin

Parking those petrie dishes seems like a reasonable thing to do that hasn't been done why? Everybody else is contributing.

Because only the rich, like Maher, can have nice things.

NO!!!

can’t stand him but on this he’s not wrong.

billmaher has lost it recently. His perspectives and his jokes are falling more and more flat. He’s a shell of his former self and it’s kinda sad to see it happening. I hope it’s just a phase.

The only one who thinks that Bill Maher is smart and funny is Bill Maher himself.

Maybe we really just need to end shows with live audiences...
