We don't have a history of stand up comedy where I live and my only contact with the genre were Seinfeld, Jay Leno and Sarah Silverman at Jay Leno :) I did research the net a bit because I thought Sarah was both funny and incredibly cute at the Jay Leno show and I've read an excerpt from this show, with the funniest jokes. I've also seen The Aristocrats, where they showed her doing a hilarious bit.
So maybe because of this, I expected a lot from this show. Unfortunately, I got only to the point of a slight smile. The good jokes I already knew from the net article and they were 5 or 6 at most. The rest was just race jokes, porn jokes, old people jokes and (I loathe this) some silly songs. I understand there is a history of Broadway musicals financed by Jews in Hollywood, but movies are movies and singing is singing. Keep them apart! This also applies to cartoons.
In conclusion, Sarah Silverman is terribly cute, but this show is not really worth it.
