Oh god no!

Sarah Silverman is just plain terrible. Just awful.
 
2011-11-22 09:15:14 PM
Yeah, everyone here hates her but I like her. She's cute, offensive, funny. If it weren't for that Jew thing she'd be perfect.
 
2011-11-22 09:24:13 PM
I'd hit that so hard her mother would feel guilty.

I think Sarah is great, but there is no way she can use her full potential on network TV. HBO would have been much better.

Working title: "Whitney"

She's one disfigurement away from being unfunny.

cman: Sarah Silverman is just plain terrible. Just awful.


She was a horrible choice to play Andre's sister on "The League".

Also:

A friend of mine really like her, but he doesn't like Jim Norton. What is his f*cking problem?

I dig Jim sometimes, but I think the difference is that Jim sometimes just likes to be ultra blue just to shock. I think (most of the time) Sarah has an underlying subtext that makes whatever joke, though offensive on the surface, hit home beyond the shock.

Like a rubber crutch she's funny.

Oh I don't know, I thought she was cute here.

I can't stand that farking woman. She grates on my last nerve.

I like Sara Silverman, and think this is a horrible idea. There's no way she can be successful on network TV.

The_Sponge: She was a horrible choice to play Andre's sister on "The League".

See, I completely disagree. I think she was perfect in the League last week, and think that is the perfect use for her. Her strength is not leading/central character. Certainly not leading/central character on farking network television.

Darkest of all timelines.

I miss her show on comedy central, but the best parts were everybody else.
 
2011-11-22 11:05:23 PM
Hey, it's on NBC. No one's going to see it anyway.
 
2011-11-22 11:05:40 PM
Speaking of Jim Norton. I met him at SDCC just walking around. Super cool guy and very nice.

/and yes, we BOTH miss Tough Crowd.
 
2011-11-22 11:07:44 PM
Which will be cancelled after 8 mind-numbing episodes....
 
2011-11-22 11:08:03 PM
Good Christ. She cannot act to save her life. Go watch her in "School of Rock." Horrible. And she is marginally funny at her best. What the hell is with NBC? Whitney is bad enough when it comes to barely attractive, hardly funny abrasive bad actresses.
 
2011-11-22 11:08:56 PM
"The show will star Silverman as a woman readjusting to being single after a decade spent in a relationship."

At least they've come up with a completely new idea. Gotta give 'em props for that.

(Sarah should be utterly ashamed of herself. She'd have more integrity as an actual whore rather than letting NBC fark her in ass for some hipster cred. I blame Whitney "I'm Funny Because I... Look At My Tits!!" Cummings for this.)
 
2011-11-22 11:11:21 PM
This is exactly the type of sitcom she'd make fun of in her act. What a farking whore.

Is it possible to agree more than 100%? Because I do.

AdolfOliverPanties: Whitney is bad enough when it comes to barely attractive, hardly funny abrasive bad actresses

Whitney is in a class by herself in that field. I don't know how she got a show. She must have taken intense blow job classes from her mom, Chelsea Handler to get any work at all.

I agree with you, I thought she worked in that part. And Jeff Goldblum as Ruxin's dad was farking *perfect*.

So does this mean that the other Sarah Silverman comedy show went under? Because that was positively awful. I watched two episodes:

1) I thought I had AIDS, but then it turned out I didn't! LOL!
2) I thought I was a lesbian, but then it turned out I wasn't! LOL!

I've seen her be funny - I thought her "Sell the Vatican, Feed the World" bit was hilarious. But the sitcom as a form of entertainment is basically dead. The sitcom died, then the meta-joke where you make a bad sitcom on purpose died, then the lol-so-ironic-amirite resurgence of the sitcom with an edgy lead died. It's dead. Let it stay dead.

Well, I hate Jim Norton. To be fair my only exposure to him is from that godawful Colin Quinn show.
 
2011-11-22 11:25:12 PM
Nothing personal against her, and I even agree with a lot of what she says. But the cute-girl-talking-raunchy schtick is tired and played out. Hope she can break out of that routine with this series and find something new.

/wanna see how raunchy comedy can work? I bring you, Bob Saget (yes, really.)

The network is currently developing a number of other new comedy projects as well, including a show starring Sean Hayes and a sitcom from Jack Black.

See, this is the one you should be really scared of. They're going to throw Jack into a domestic sitcom with a 30 year old hot blonde and a couple of smart-mouthed kids and he's going to spend the next 12 years making a lot of funny faces and somehow always coming through in the end, and people will eat it up because his hair will be unkempt.

That dude was made to be a bad sitcom dad. If he's ready to take a boring job for a steady paycheck, look the hell out.

I saw some stand-up he did that was pretty good. But yeah, that show was the worst.
 
2011-11-22 11:30:55 PM
I hate the fact that I find her so incredibly farkable.

But she is the woman I have wanted to marry all my life, even before I knew her.

Matt Damon IS a comedy pilot.

No one took the bait? Has everyone blocked you, Mugato?

You mean the greatest show in the past 15 years?

That show was pure brilliance.

I would have, but I couldn't find a "That's anti-semitic" animated gif.

And so is this what they're going to replace "Community" with?

Rob_the_Irish_Bastard: I hate the fact that I find her so incredibly farkable.

I also feel great shame for finding her totally farkable and totally not funny

MrEricSir: Bob Saget (yes, really.)

yeah, 1990 called and said "you know, wow, the dude from Full House is a totally dirty comic!"

Sure, but back then we didn't have YouTube.

I wonder if hes contractually barred from doing another video show like that... I'd love to see him guest host Tosh.0 or even have his own show like that or something.

And good God did Seth Rogen suck as Dirty Randy.

Be sure to watch his "Monster Rain" comedy special....it might change your mind.

Then how come I saw it too?

Anti-Semitic trolling works only in the politics thread, but it was a nice try.

I'd like to see him DIAF.

Her best role was the intro scene to The Way of the Gun.
 
2011-11-23 07:22:39 AM
I thought she had a good 'annoying biatch with rich daddy issues' bit in Peep Show or whatever that was called.
