Sarah Silverman: PostMortem

I generally enjoy Sara Silverman's comedy, i find it smart and creative, she is a great storyteller. This specific piece is very honest and a very well narrated story about her personal journey with her parents, at some points it gets sad and depressing, but she is a mature comic that teaches us that you can always find a silver lining on every situation.

Maybe the problem is that this material is the kind you expect to hear on a comedy special, and you start watching thinking about a great time with a witty comic, but after a few minutes you realise that it is quite dense, not very funny. It does not mean it is a bad special, i would just suggest to be aware that this is not the kind of show you want to watch if you want a big laugh.

Sarah Silverman fans will like it. If you have lost a parent you'll like it. Sarah kills it. This special should be 10/10 across the board. She always keeps it real and so naturally funny. Obviously she has a past of being in stand up up comedy, if you're a comedy nerd you know that. She's always been funny and watching her delivery and intellectual delivery she always will be in my top fav comics. I like the ones that will bush boundaries but Also be themselves like through and through. I can't lie I lost touch a bit with the stupid post she put out about the Israel Palestine situation but she fixed it and I low key get her perspective at the the time as a full on American women of Jewish heritage but whatever she makes me cackle and have always loved her comedy and she stays funny,

I watched about half of her show so far due to limitations of my own but so far I love it Silverman is someone who I really didn't think was that funny and I'm talking about you know 30 years ago OK when I go back and look at her stuff even 20 years ago I find that she actually is quite funny quite good at what she does unique in her delivery and reading these negative comments about her Flips me out. Who are you people? I'm glad you don't like Sarah Silverman put your red hats on and go away.

So now I write to fulfill a technicality on this site I love Sarah and believe that her humor and delivery are funny and funnier each time her humor is intelligent maybe some of you that so clearly dislike her should just crawl off and away from the rest of us with the lack of females in comedy and late night etc we need her voice now more than ever.

Sarah absolutely jerks you from cute family story to heartfelt, sentimental memories, to deep, dark gallows humor, then randomly hits each note like a bop-it. As someone with a fairly comparable age and story of loss, it hit like a brick, then made me cackle in the darkest of ways. A memorable laugh/cry for sure.

I'm sure it's a miss for some, but I am just personally an absolute bullseye of a target audience on this one. It is pure catharsis. It will challenge what you find funny and you'll probably think it's weird that a stand up comic is making you cry, be it for sympathy or empathy. Enjoy!!

This is so unfunny and ordinary - I say things like this in casual conversations with friends, and we just smile slightly.

This is considered stand-up material?

And worth putting on a streaming platform?

It's unfunny, bland, weak, bad, boring, bland.

There's really nothing more to say, so I'll just copy this again to reach the required character count.
