Stoutor It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
olesyaniklebedeva This series is about tolerance ... Usually they say and in advance attribute to themselves as merit the normal human qualities - tolerance, understanding ... Some adequate people would laugh, call them tolerant. They consider themselves pofigists ...And then there is that very thin line of tolerance. Personally, I do not demand from you a universal love for people, I am completely satisfied with pofigism. When you do not care about the way I look, what kind of religion or sexual orientation. Do not you care if I do sports or smoke like a steam locomotive? In half? Excellent! Let's be friends, I do not care for you either, I do not know you and I do not have emotional affection for you.But when it comes to a particular sadly upset man, or about a group-community-nation-planet, I devote part of my life to meditations about them, even a few minutes, but that already means that it is important. Yes?
philfeeley Sorry to all you that like this, but this is unwatchable. If a male comedian took 10 minutes to describe how he masturbates, everyone would agree that it was and stupid. Well, that's what this show ends up being, and her interviews don't make up for it. If there's nothing left to be funny about but masturbation, then all comedians should quit now.
jancope ..is love, sweet love. it's the only thing that there's just too little of.Sarah starts a dialogue of thought provoking insight from issues that the media tends to only show one side of. Her honesty, vulnerability and open-mindedness are the perfect storm for what we need right now. Entertaining, insightful, and doesn't take itself too seriously. Maybe not for everyone, but this cat thoroughly enjoys every minute. Recommended.
Joseph Godfrey Coming from Episode One of 'Sarah Silverman's I Love You America' (Which I saw 4 days after its premier because I had no idea that it on.) I really didn't like the opening with the 'I Love You America' song, plus the show's theme song ... It was 5 minutes of wasted time in a 30 minutes episode. She could had just you-tubed the opening song like a promo and just got right to the show.I didn't like the monologue and it felt like the audience wasn't enjoying it either. I've seen her do really good monologue for SNL, but this simple "Hello audience" dragged on. I know that HULU is trying to be a TV format, but it's internet streaming entertainment; The close-ups of a nude man & woman would have been funny if it were on (say) Sunday morning NBC, but this is the internet. You aren't going to startle people that can google videos of poo-porn with 3 minutes of Scott's penis & Stella's boobs. You could probably fix the whole opening if Sarah could jibe about the week's events live, but I heard it's pre-recorded three days ahead time.I loved when Sarah went to Chalmette, Louisiana and met with the Standers family. It's exactly what should have been the focus of this half-hour show. It's an example of Southerners that New Yorkers, Californians, or most Yankees won't believe about the South - We're nice people who can get along with just about anybody. This was the conversation that Sarah promised for 'I Love You America' and it was funny, adorable, charming, and full of heart.I wish the entire show focused on Sarah's "field trips" and I wish it were an hour long. It's the sole reason I will continue to watch more. I know that this is mostly about talking with people that voted for Donald Trump. But what I'd rather see is Sarah showing the rest of the country who Southerners really are. I know the South as friendly and inviting, while I've listened to people on the West Coast passionately argue with me that Southerners are a bunch of ignorant bigots because "statistics don't lie". With everything Hollywood perpetuates about non-Northeners, it would be a welcome change.Megan Phelps-Roper, formerly of the Westboro Baptist Church, was the final 10 minutes of the episode. It's more of an update of where Megan is in her life. The media followed her & her family pretty closely for years up until her departure. I liked her as a guest, but it wasn't anything new/interesting for me. It seemed like a really short interview. Also the silliness afterwards with Sarah walking away from Megan to get in bed - came across as rude. I know she didn't mean to play it out like that. It was just a stunt to point back at a previous joke where she couldn't sleep without 'Law & Order' reruns. But yeah it didn't work out that way.All in all, I like Sarah Silverman. I like her going on field trips to meet conservatives, but I wish it were more about popping the liberal bubble. I remember an episode of 'The Daily Show' when they went to a southern town and had two gay men announce their engagement just to get a reaction out of a group of people ... Jon Stewart was shocked that people applauded them. I love when preconceived notions get an eye-opening experience and I think 'I Love You America' has a great opportunity to do this every week.
