Sarah Silverman Show AXED

[snot]

If they had any brains they'd be ginning up spin-offs like the "The Brian Posehn and Steve Agee Show" (Sarah's freckled neighbors).

1. She's not funny

[snot]

3. Oh yeah she is; she's BRILLIANT funny!

[sakabatou]

4. Not in my opinion.

11. Neil Young plays a brilliant one note solo in Cinnamon Girl but it's still just one note

Over and over over and over and over and over. And he only did it in that ONE song.

Sarah plays the same note over and over in EVERY song, thereby diminishing the brilliance down to a pain in the ass level. She's the Sarah Palin of stand-up.

[Winston Wolf]

9. Agreed.

She was never funny in anything she has ever done. The only time I didn't absolutely loathe her presence on the television was her brief performance in School of Rock, where she played the only role she can play - an obnoxious bitch with a shitty sense of humor.

10. She's not only not funny, she's anti-funny.

[seabeyond]

12. i was going to agree she isnt funny, but i am agreeing with you more, lol . nt

[Ikonoklast]

23. She can actually suck the funny out of room.

If people are laughing when she walks in, they immediately stop doing so.


She's the black hole of humor, relentlessy destroying every bit of it within her event horizon.

17. She's someone I want to find funny, but she just isn't. ...

I don't know if it is the material or the delivery or what.

2. I'm going to miss that crazy, wacky TV Wonderland

[semillama]

5. Best TV gay couple of all time. Hands down.

[Orsino]

16. Yep.

"Dude, I'd be gay for you if you were a first-level thief with a charisma of one." :rofl: :applause:

Silverman herself is pretty funny, but is a one-off joke in this show. The rest of the cast is really good.

[EOTE]

6. One of the funniest shows on television.

It never got the support it deserved. After a long, drawn-out fight, they give the show a third season and put it on at midnight?!? Then they wonder why it didn't get a bigger audience? How about giving the show more than just one full season and allowing it to find its audience?

I look forward to seeing what she does next, she's one of the funniest comedians out there.

[Gidney N Cloyd]

7. Very polarizing show.

[Odin2005]

8. That sucks! I think she's great.

[Mojambo]

13. Very good show, and I'm not even that big a fan of her.

Excellent talent doing something different and quirky.

So of course it had to go so TOTAL shit like "How I Met Your Mother" can continue on.

[MiddleFingerMom]

14. I don't believe I've ever seen the Sarah Silverman show...

.
...so I don't know whether THAT was funny or not, but
what I have seen of her makes me laugh. A LOT.
.
She's hilarious -- and pretty edgy. Maybe some folks don't
like edgy.

Uh-oh.

15. Sarah, Sarah, Sarah....

[MiddleFingerMom]

19. OK, admittedly, some of her humor IS...

Oh, like none of you thought, "Damn... wish I'da thunka that one!!!"

18. A guilty pleasure.

I'll miss it.

[Unfortunately]

20. Spinoffs

I agree. I've seen Brian Posehn live and he's a genius. He is long overdue and well deserving of his own show.

Plus, I agree with the others: She's not funny, has no talent, and is so repulsively anti-funny she makes me change the channel when I see her commercials. With that said, when she's not being an ignorant assclown, she's rather a sweet girl, as seen on her radio and talk show interviews.

[azmouse]

21. Good. One less unfunny show on tv.

[blue_onyx]

22. Good

I don't find her the least bit funny.

[PassingFair]

24. We agree again!

The only thing I've seen her in where I didn't
"click" the remote to remove her was her role
as a stalker in a couple of "Monk" episodes.

She made a believable stalker.

[blue_onyx]

26. I guess it's bound to happen occasionally

:hi:

[JitterbugPerfume]

25. she is annoying

good riddance
