I Love You, America

I Love You, America was slated to be a series with Sarah Silverman meeting & talking with people that don't agree with her. Basically the far right as Sarah is extremely far left. There are only a few episodes where Sarah talks to un-like-minded people, the first 2 and then episode 17. Out of all of the pandering, condescending, abasing & hypocricy, the one with Bill Burr is the one worth watching. If you've been lead to believe as I was that there would be genuine conversations with conservative individuals please inform HULU for a refund. We were lied to.

I really enjoyed the first season of the show. She brought together 2 opposing parties, and had them discuss. Then came season 2 where she starts advertising her opinions, and belittling others. Still holding a little to bringing parties together, but her bullying dominated the show and makes it unwatchable. I know some like sitting around and making fun of other people, but I dont find that entertaining.

First of all, I think Sarah's standup is great. Always have. This show however is disappointing and weird.

There's an agenda to a lot of it. It feels like the material is meant to teach me lessons and correct my behavior. The last thing I would want or expect from Sarah is to tell me how to be politically correct. Ugh.

Also when she interacts with her guests she's got this exaggerated way of responding to them that feels like sarcasm at first and then you realize she's not kidding. Ugh. Weird.

Having said that, there is definitely some good material in these shows that makes me laugh.

Terrific pilot episode everyone else seems to be expecting something run-of-the-mill and spoon fed where Sarah Silverman has always been one of the most unorthodox comedians with some of the most unorthodox TV show formulas if you could call them formulas . I found the Intro musical to be slow and annoying for the first 20 seconds but then funnier as the skit plays out and you begin to realize what she's actually trying to speak to. I thought the interview was great and I thought her visiting the family was great and also I even like the fake show host because it's pretty clear that there's a degree of truth to the things she says about late-night hosts.

Far left Sarah has thoughtful intelligent conversations with far right without being condescending. Very funny at times, very serious at times. Not your usual Sarah Silverman stuff. Check out at least one episode.
