SEASON PREMIERE: Bill Maher continues his Friday night run of topical TV, as one of the executive producers of this gritty news series, now back for Season 2. Shane Smith is host and reporter, and begins this second season with a personal visit to Afghanistan, in which he gets up close and personal, inspecting the number and condition of Russian aircraft bought by the U.S. for the Afghans to use once the Americans pull out. Except that, according to this report, the Afghans can’t repair most of these aircraft, can’t fly them at night, and other key issues that make the purchase of these helicopters a very iffy question.
