A lot of advertisers pulled their ad spots, and Disney/ABC received so much heat over it, they cancelled him. He then moved over to the old Dennis Miller spot on HBO.

Personally, I enjoy the HBO show (Real Time) a lot more than Politically Incorrect when both on ABC/Comedy Central. In 30 minutes he barely had a chance to get into issues because there was a lot of fighting or talking over one another.
no shit, this format is SO much better

and god bless the NEW RULES portion of the show, that has to be the #1 thing that makes me laugh consistanly week after week
