anyone who paid that much to see a comedy act is probably a douche anyway

Probably didn't think a bunch of Britishes would get most of her references.

40 mins is OK if it's a comedy club and there's 2 or 3 other acts there as well. It's not if you are the feature act and the venue is a theatre, with prices to match.

My guess is she was badly advised (or not advised at all). The UK comedy scene is a hell of a bearpit at the best of times. To assume they are more laid-back audiences is about as wrong as you can get.

Pretty sure staring at tits while someone makes "edgy" gags is a universal thing.

Sarah Silverman is very open about her lifelong battle with clinical depression, crediting her current freedom from attacks of despair to her use of prescription Zoloft, which she says was urged by her mother and aunt, both psychologists.

Silverman is a teetotaller.

you gave her lifelong depression

didn't she get back with kimmel? that's punishment enough for 10 lifetimes.

Former host of The Man Show? More like current host of the Oh, Maaaan That's Terrible show.

She was on JRoss show, and 8-10cats...

Likeable, yeah. Once she got in a stride of sorts, she was funny. But I get the impression she's not a 'died-in-the-wool' professional comedian type, which is fine. JRoss was 'feeding' her possible comedy spur lines and she was batting them away. "Madonna and Guy splitting? I have nothing to say about that..." GOOD!

Mark G, Tuesday, 21 October 2008 08:16 (fifteen years ago) link

You mean she's just doing this for a while until she gets some proper acting jobs?

Ich Ber ein Binliner (Tom D.), Tuesday, 21 October 2008 09:02 (fifteen years ago) link

Well, I meant as in not a 'honed to the nth degree professional' like yr Monkhouse/JRivers types.

Mark G, Tuesday, 21 October 2008 09:09 (fifteen years ago) link

Well that's hardly unusual, is it? Her appearance in last year's (or was it the year before?) Secret Policeman's Ball seems to have been airbrushed out of history, which is just as well for her sake.

I hear that's how the shepherd passed away.

"news is dicks."

anyone else watching her show this season? i think my favorite thing was a week or two ago when jay and laura spent all of their time alone dancing wildly.

LOUT of ICHOR (GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ), Friday, 24 October 2008 09:15 (fifteen years ago) link

the only thing i like about the show is that it's set in valley village -- i always pass the valley village station on the orange line on the way to my bf's place in sherman oaks, and it makes me smile.

thandie newman (get bent), Friday, 24 October 2008 09:25 (fifteen years ago) link

and sherman oaks makes me think of it's garry shandling's show!

I would just like to pop onto this thread to express my disappointment with her twitter quips.

that is all.

richie aprile (rockapads), Friday, 26 March 2010 00:09 (fourteen years ago) link

i'd rather look at her than listen to her.
that is all i have to say on the matter x

For some reason assumedly having to do with Google's algorithm, if you do a gis of me, several of the pictures are things I posted on this thread. The internet loves a hot chick.

I wonder if there is a way Morbius can fit his hatred for QT into every thread on the board.

Seriously, I'm almost starting to admire his level of dedication to this cause. Almost.

he's always been a bit of an anti-climb Max (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Thursday, 1 April 2010 02:49 (fourteen years ago) link

someday I'm gonna meet Quentin T. and I'm gonna say "I know this guy who totally hates you, you gotta have a character called 'Morbius' in your next movie & you gotta make the movie suck even worse than usual" and he's totally gonna say "I will do it because you are cool" and when the movie comes out we will totally have a thread about it

gonna be a great day

Twink Will Ferrell (J0hn D.), Thursday, 1 April 2010 03:16 (fourteen years ago) link

can you also tell QT to make the character a yankees fan?

Nicely played sir.

I like his earlier, funny movies; maybe he should make one with Sarah Silverman

Is Comedy Central trying to kill her show now? It's on at midnight with maybe one re-run on Sunday night.

Even before The Sarah Silverman Program came back from the interminable break between seasons two and three, the writing was on the wall: Comedy Central reportedly balked at the show’s expense (and the cast’s supposed desire for more money), and only through a partnership with the Logo network was the show’s third season funded. When it finally returned in early February, Comedy Central moved it to the late-night graveyard a month later, airing after Colbert and without the usual regimen of reruns the network gives its original programming.

So the message couldn’t have been clearer: This is it for The Sarah Silverman Program.

They really seem to be going out with a bang, turning up the weirdness levels and hitting you with non-stop jokes. Thursdays at midnight, I'll definitely be there....
