Save time with this "special", just go to the last 10 minutes, it's the only interesting part.
I had only seen Sarah Silverman on TV sketches and most of them were funny, but if this is her standup quality, then she should improve A LOT or just write for someone else.

This is what I've been waiting for; the moment when tries to do her own material rather than stealing other comedian's work. It's been well documented how she has repeatedly ripped off other people's routines and passed it off as her own work.Not today folks! That's right! What you got to see was all that she was, a thief and a hack who, when tries to be a comedian of her own material, falls flat on butt.The truth is out, and while she is blaming trolls for all the negative comments and one-star ratings, many of them (most if not all) come from her own followers. She was horrible and unwatchable. Many reported lasting only 5-10 minutes into her nightmare special before turning it off.

With female stand-ups falling like flies these days (the tenuous careers of Griffin and Schumer or just plain dropping dead like Joan Rivers) Sara Silverman steps up to try and fill the void. Instead of staunching she instead exacerbates with the same below the waist gross humor that Amy Schumer's last special spewed to the detriment of her career. Playing in what looks like a small community theatre to an audience of well wishers she gets brief blocks of polite laughter from a crowd that never really gets raucous with the material or her dead pan delivery. Showing little energy and working off of a pad on a stool her timing is poor her projection slurred at times. By the halfway mark she is running on fumes as the repetitive vaginal, anal, rape and cum jokes no longer shock and the energy level, low from the outset, begins to creep. The audience enthusiasm never rises much from the outset as the laughter and applause never builds but stays so uniform that you get the feeling at times of sitcom canned laughter to bulk up Silverman's anemic performance.Once a decent sit-com supporting actress Silverman is no A list stand-up comedian. The cutesy little girl routine in her 20s has grown old and stale now that she is in her mid 40s and there is a reason she played in a band box, her following is few. Still, she came out swinging like the ill fated Goodyear Blimp Schumer did in her Leather Special with "edgy" humor such as her sister crapping herself or where her boyfriend puts his hand after giving her digital anal stimulation. Given her fecal obsession Sara must be quite pleased with this fine mess of a comedy special, it's pretty crappy.

I have loved much of Sarah's work in the past, but her newest special disappointed me. It deserves a 5 out of 10 because it was funny and witty about 50% of the time. The other 50% was a mixture of political talking points and misinformed scientific facts. I did laugh out loud a few times but the majority of jokes were poorly written, especially by her standards. I think I counted around 5 complex joke premises, all of which were very well executed, but the rest fell flat.
