Poll question: Sarah Silverman is...
I think she's hilarious, and when she hits the racial hot-buttons, I think she is mocking racism. But a couple people have told me they think her act if offensive. So what do you think about her?

1. Like Neve Campbell, but quite not as cute
Neve is an amazing hottie, there can be only one.

I haven't heard enough of her work outside of Crank Yankers to judge.

3. The finest stand up comic working today...
since Shandling and Sahl won't do it, Pryor can't do it anymore, and Bruce is dead. She is really good.

Ever since she was first on SNL, I though she was very hot.

6. I'm not impressed with her performance on Quinn's show
and that f***ing whiny voice of hers. :o

7. Decent actress, TERRIBLE comedian...
I'll give her credit: she was good on the Larry Sanders Show (of course, the program had such quality writing that it might not have required much from her).

But the Lenny Bruce of the 21st century?

Now, I've listened to some audio-recordings of Bruce, and trust me...the guy had wit. He possessed craft, and deftly savaged our cultural mores like a wolverine.

Silverman, on the other hand, has the demeanor of a sorority girl. She bellows out these meandering rants that are supposed to offend me, but I really just feel embarrased for her. The silence from the audience certainly didn't stem from shock.

George Carlin, who hasn't been up to snuff in the past 7 years (but still wonderful, nonetheless) has more talent in his goatee than Silverman does in her entire body.

12. I think she's the same as Colin Quinn except different
Different as in all she is good for is sucking my big fat German c*ck. Because she seem's like she's good at sucking Satans so she can get on the cultural/intelectual train wreck of a television show that is "Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn." (Humming the Bill Hicks joke)
"Suckin' Satans pecker, SUCK IT!"
"Come on Sarah, it's just your dignity."
"Suck it just like Colin does:evilgrin:"


I'm in a bad mood can you tell:)

13. I've never seen her Quinn's show
But I've seen her on Conan. And she was funny on there.

Cheer up, dude! :)

Damn, why did you have to mention Malloy? I miss that bastard.

17. She was funny as a kid.
She and my daughter were high school friends. They appeared in school productions of "Sweet Charity" and "Bye Bye Birdie".

I thought she was funny as hell. Haven't seen any of her recent work.

One morning, after a sleep-over, she was in the kitchen with Miz t.
"Hen ovaries for breakfast. Cool!"
She cracked me up.
(pun intended)
