    Colossally unfunny. Silverman has so much potential, but none of it is realized in this turd of a show.

    1. She's racist -"Wow, are you god's black friend?", "Oh wow god is black, are you like going to steal the moon or something?" 2. Her jokes are immature and non-funny **One guy farts**, **Another guy farts**, **Sarah Silverman "farts"** "....I pooped my pants" Wow, Comedy Central has really fallen far since Chappelle's show got cancelled, first Mind of Mencia, and now this...

    Pretty funny program ... much funnier than the ads for it suggested.

    very offensive and very funny. Just saw the first episode and would imagine they will sharpen characters a bit more. Can't wait to see more!

    Brilliant. Although much of the show involves 5th grade jokes, Silerman weaves them in a smart fashion. Jay Jonston is great in the pilot...

    This show has the potential to be great. Way better than Comedy Central deserves. They should bring back Stella and pair the two. God, I hate the naked trucker. Also, I hate T-bone. The Sarah Silverman Program is a really sweet way to go to hell.

    Funny. Very funny. I wasn't a particular fan of Sarah Silverman's before but this was smart and ridiculous. And, it made me laugh. Can't ask for more.

    Silverman is that annoying, pedantic little girl in high school who everyone pretends to like out of fear or lack of understanding. This show makes your skin crawl and Silverman is every bit as sticky and schticky as she has been. The only saving graces are Sarah's laid back, less than metro gay neighbors who make you think "I know a guy just like that."

    More painful to watch than Mind of Mencia and equal in awfulness to the Naked T-Bone show. Comedy Central keeps getting worse and worse after Chappelle left them for a quiet life in Ohio.

  1. Where her movie overstayed its welcome, the quick-shot format of TV works beautifully. The result is haphazard, amoral, ridiculous, wildly offensive...and, you know, totally hilarious.

    The Sarah Silverman Program is a welcome outlet for Silverman’s brand of outlandishness, blessedly stingy with its desire to breach mores, and much more concerned with decorating its late-night comedy turf so that it can welcome any kind of unexpected laugh: shock, parody, irony, insult humor or absurdity.

    The pilot... iis actually the least funny of the three episodes I saw; in the other two, "Sarah" and the other characters are much better developed and the stories hang together better. Still, it's an acquired tastelessness.
