T-minus 43 minutes to the double-length, double-strength season finale of @SHO_TheCircus. In the 7 years we’ve been on air, our hourlong Election Week specials (2016, 2018, 2020) have been among the very best eps that our unrivaled team of real-time political docu-assassins has produced. Tonight’s 2022 midterm incarnation is no exception, and in some ways it may be our most ambitious, audacious, amazing season-ender yet. I don’t want to spoil too much, but I will note THREE unusual elements in our S7 finale: (a) pictured 👆👆👆, a game-changing, award-worthy performance, in a roundtable set at @raysbarnyc, by the legendary hound (and 🍩 whore) @kumatheroux … accompanied by a perfectly serviceable turn by her dad @justintheroux; (b) a positive Covid test in the early innings of last week by one of our cohosts, who later rallied to make a heroic, Kirk Gibson-like return to the field (if he does say so himself 😂) in the bottom of the ninth, with Roger Angell-worthy results; and (c) arguably the greatest cold open in #TheCircus history. After the finale has aired on the East *and* West coasts, I will post the open here … but not until then (no matter how much you beg, you impatient fiends). So if you’re dying to see the open asap—and the rest of this remarkable ep, RIPTIDES—be sure to dial in @showtime at 8pm ET/PT. And, oh, btw, if you do, prepare yourself for something so unexpected and so extraordinary of late that you might wind up feeling a bit weepy: an honest, real-deal, no-bullshit sense of hope about the state and fate of American democracy. 🎪🛫🛬🚆🚘🎥📺🇺🇸

Took a break from social media while I recovered/reset after the end of @sho_thecircus S7 … and the Covid bout that came with it. But now, like the Costanzas, I’M BACK, BABY, I’M BACK … making my return to IG alongside that magnificent bastard @birbigs, who turned up at 30 Rock today [SWIPE LEFT] for @morningjoe to talk about his sidesplitting/heartbreaking/soul-stirring work of staggering genius “The Old Man & The Pool,” which you can (must!) see at the Vivian Beaumont Theater at @lincolncenter thru Jan 15. Be there or be square, kids! 👴🏻🏊🏻♂️🎱🎭🃏

A month ago this stiff (@jordanklepper) invited me to be special guest at fhe kickoff perf of @shitshowshow in Gowanus, Brooklyn. How much fun was it? Fun enough that I went back last night for the second @shitshowshow performance — with a crew from @sho_thecircus to make mischief for Sunday’s all-new episode of #TheCircus. 🎪🃏🎥📺🇺🇸

She’s on the cover of the @NYTmag. She’s got @repkevinmccarthy by the balls. She could be Donald Trump’s 2024 running mate — or run for president herself. No doubt @repmtg is batshit crazy, but she’s also the face/future of the GOP … which is why she’s the focus of tonight’s @SHO_TheCircus, at 8pm ET/PT, only on @Showtime. 🎪📺🎥🇺🇸
Honored to have @sho_thecircus included in this stellar group of nominees. Many thanks for the lovely bouquet @criticschoice. 🎪🎥📺💐
On tonight’s hourlong S7 finale of @SHO_TheCircus, @mmckinnon & @jennifer.palmieri barnstorm the country w @emarvelous & @timodcpics to cover a midterm election that many predicted would bring a red wave but instead ended up being all about “Riptides.” (What was I doing? Oy, you’ll see.) At 8pm on @Showtime. 🎪🎥📺🇺🇸

It’s time to ask the question: Do we even have representative govt/majority rule any more? Matthew Dowd thinks not. To hear why, have a listen to last week’s #HHW, with Dowd and my @sho_thecircus cohost @jennifer.palmieri — link in bio. 🔥🌊🎙🎧
With Election Day near, @jordanklepper is everywhere: hosting a new @thedailyshow special, which debuts Tues night on @comedycentral; on stage in NY with a live comedy thingy called SHITSHOW; and even with us guest hosting @sho_thecircus! Catch it tonight at 8pm on @showtime.
