• Isla Fisher And Sarah Silverman: Cat Fight! [VIDEO]

  From the old Trio show Pilot Season, which also starred Andy Dick and David Cross. Pilot Season is being brought back as webisodes by My Damn Channel, which is airing the first two episodes today. Silverman and Fisher are very funny here being catty with each other, with Isla calling Sarah's arms "apelike."  More than just being funny, though, it's Isla Fisher and Sarah Silverman together. And now that Isla's converted to Judaism for hubby Sascha Baron Cohen, Isla Fisher and Sarah Silverman together is, for the Jews, a very holy thing. Vengeful Old Testament God, just look at these pictures of them... Read More...

• Sedaris is Back, Bitches!

  Listen, we love the ladies of comedy.  If you hadn’t noticed, we’ve had raunchy Sarah Silverman and Palin-perfect Tina Fey on the brain lately.  At a time of economic distress and political upheaval (read: oh shit we have no money and don’t understand why), these two women have soothed us with their acerbic one-liners and their dirty judgy jokes.  Their election comedy has really eased the hearts and minds of the American people.  But despite that . . . something has been missing.  We’ve been longing for the perfect combo of Silverman’s vulgar antics and Fey’s knowing wit.  Who could fill that void? Amy Sedaris, that’s who!   She’s been away from the blinding glare of the spotlight for a while; so we’ve included a picture of her boobs above, in case you forgot what they looked like.  Apparently, Sedaris and her breasts will be returning to television soon! More details and naughty Sedaris pics after the jump . . . Read More...

• Obama for your Grandmamma

  The Great Schlep from The Great Schlep on Vimeo.   Sarah Silverman is everywhere. What with tonight’s premiere of Season 2B of The Sarah Silverman Program, her recent kissy-face exploits with Jimmy Kimmel, and the above educational video “The Great Schlep,” it seems like we can’t get away from Sarah.  Her mix of pseudo-innocence and nasty girl humor creeps up on us in our sleep.  We find ourselves giggling and sighing “Oh Sarah, you’re too much” in the middle of the night.  True story. In case you haven’t seen it yet, her latest viral video, “The Great Schlep,” produced by the Jewish Council for Education and Research, asks young Jews to persuade their grandparents to vote for Barack Obama.  She says bubbies and Nanas should vote Obama because: “Barack Obama’s foreign policy is much more stabilizing than John McCain’s.  He’s much better for Israel.  He wants to protect social security.  His brisket is beyond.  It’s . . . beyond.  He’s circum super . . .  circum super-sized” All of which is true.

• Jimmy + Sarah 4eva

  OMG, you guys, word on the street is Jimmy Kimmel and Sarah Silverman are back together!  And they ain’t shy about it either. Sarah and Jimmy have been out, playing grabass all over town: . . . they attended pal Howard Stern's Oct. 3 wedding at New York City's Le Cirque restaurant, where Kimmel was spotted wrapping his arms around Silverman's waist and playfully grabbing her backside in plain view of photographers. Love it!  Hopefully with these two getting some, we’ll get a little more of this . . . Read More...

• Video Weekend: Eight Great Standup Comics

  One of the things TV does really well is to sponsor great comedy, and send it straight to your home. After all, not every town has its own comedy club -- and even if there is a local Chuckle Hut in your community, you usually have to sit through one or two lame, ancient or belligerent routines for every good one. TV, on the other hand, is full of comedians working at their best -- on Comedy Central, on HBO and on every late-night talk show, not to mention Comic Relief and Last Comic Standing. We've selected footage from eight of the funniest comedians ever, performing at various times over the past 25 years. And we can pretty much guarantee that they'll make you laugh -- although the two-drink minimum is at your own discretion. Read More...

• Sarah Silverman, Norm MacDonald Sign Up for New "Match Game"

  Some actual big-name stars have signed on as panelists for TBS' remake of Match Game, the campy '60s-to-'70s game show in which contestants had to guess how celebrities would fill in the blanks of a sentence. In addition to Sarah Silverman and Norm MacDonald, the pilot episode will include Rashida Jones, Kids in the Hall's Scott Thompson, Bob Einstein (also known as Super Dave Osborne) and Reno 911!'s Niecy Nash. The original Match Game helped make household names of such "personalities" as Brett Somers, Charles Nelson Reilly, Nipsey Russell and Fannie Flagg. No doubt these modern celebs will be encouraged to continue in their tradition of answering with salty double-entendres -- especially since the show is being produced by Robert Smigel, best known for creating Saturday Night Live's "TV Funhouse" and Triumph, the Insult Comic Dog. After the jump, a racy episode from 1974: Read More...
