Sarah Silverman is one of the funniest people alive. I'm patiently awaiting for the DVD to come in the mail. In my waiting, I bought the OST on iTunes - it's absolutely hilarious. It has some of the songs from the movie ("I Love You More" is great and "Porn Stars" is growing on me) and includes a lot of the stand up from the film also - very hilarious stand up. After the movie bit, there are a few "unreleased" songs. The first is "Everybody Sings", which most Silverman fans will probably recognize. In the song she talks about black people, chinese people, and mexican people and how all these ethnicities sing. Rather funny, especially the ending with her talking. After that, we have "Nobody's Perfect", in which Sarah makes fun of Abraham Lincoln, Mother Teresa, Gandhi, and George W. Carver. Too funny, especially the Gandhi (sp?) part. The next song is "Phoebe's Song", which just sounds like Sarah messing around in the recording studio, but it's funny (in a juvenile sense of the word). Then there's the Christmas classic, "Give the Jew Girl Toys".

Overall, if you're a Silverman fan, this is perfect for you.

Let's face it, you either get her or you don't. It is obvious to me that Sarah is up there with Lenny Bruce or George Carlin when it comes to comic genius. My one complaint, aside from the fact that her beauty sometimes distracts from the performance, is that she doesn't have nearly enough material out there. That is the only chink in her armor.

If you have seen anything by Sarah and you have liked it you will like this. It's not everyone's bag. If you like American Idol and mainstream garbage you won't like it and you will be offended. If you are open minded you will get a kick.

Sarah Silverman is mad funny!!! Her songs get stuck in your Fn' head. You'll be walking down the street going "your gonna die soon, your gonna die soon", and stuff. Plus she is really really hot! She is halarious, but some of her jokes aren't funny, but only like two or three. I don't know why she always talks about diarreia, but that shhh still cracks me up! I was never really a SS fan until I saw this movie! Now I can't wait for Season Two of The Sarah Silverman Program on Comedy Central!!! I'ma watch every Fn episode! and I hope Season One cums out on DVD soon! Go Sarah Silverman! You Fn Rock!!!

While I am far more of a music man when it comes to what I listen to in the car and on my stereo at home there are always the days where I'm in the mood for a little stand up comedy. And Miss Sarah Silverman is hillarious! Granted, she is not for the faint of heart or the easily offended. It takes a lot to offend me and I enjoy her humor (although there may be one or two too many "doodie" jokes) a lot. The album is a pairing of studio humor songs with some live stand-up thrown in alongside. Overall the whole thing comes together and gives you a wonderfully irreverant look at the world we live in. And, come on, isn't that exactly what so many of us need in this age of overly rampant political correctness? We need to learn how to laugh at irreverence and (expecially in Sarah's case) the ridiculousness of some of our darker traits. She embraces racism, stereotypes, religious intolerance, homophobia, and the self-centered nature of Hollywood in a way that shows how hollow and empty those view points are. You find yourself laughing out loud and saying, "How could anyone really think like that?" So, it's not only incredibly funny humor but there's also a touch (while it's hidden very well) of social commentary in there with all the doodie jokes too. I loved it.

When Sarah Silverman delivers her standup, she is very funny. Only problem is, this CD features 15 titles, only seven of them are standup comedy. The rest is stupid songs, which are supposed to be funny, and some lines in some songs actually are. But if you're like me and hate singing in comedy CDs, beware.

If you want to see someone devalue VIRTUALLY everything you held in esteem, buy this sordid, valueless, non-comedic diatribe. If you want to watch her demean ML King, and Jesus Christ, among others, buy this sordid, valueless, non-comedic diatribe. A disgusting individual among an increasing crop of disgusting individuals PRESUMING to have something to reveal that might make her a few dollars.

She makes Lenny Bruce seem like an icon of anti-bigotry. Dice Clay to be a language teacher.

In America, this individual has the unfettered right to free expression, but she seems to "esteem" nothing more elevated than her own depravity.

Is that the level to which normal Americans want to sink?

Buy it if you think she has something to say. Anything you would feel remiss to avoid - like a toenail fungus - and help support her ambition to be the most despised figure in American "comedy".

I did not buy this video. For some reason, it was shown on cable TV.

I could barely watch - and decided after she expressed the opinion that Christ's crucifixion deserved a repris - not to.

And I'm non-religious!
