Aggy's thoughts:
The satirical Sarah Silverman honours us with her first performance in Britain. Don't get over excited now - but this is adult content.

Pure Genius! intelligent, subtle, amazingly brilliant actress and stand up, sexy and cute! I like her!
If you dont get this humour you should seek therapy , honestly!
She is too uncomfortable to watch and I just don't think she's funny. She never makes me laugh and I don't think she gets a point across. I really think a lot of people don't get it, personally I don't want to get it. Nervous laughter isn't good. The audience are not sure a lot of the time. At the Amnesty Ball she is playing to an audience that probably have a better understanding but I can just imagine this kind of material going out to a much wider audience, many will be laughing for completely the wrong reasons.
Hated this when I saw it in 2006. She's grown on me in that time. Think her timing is good, it's just that her content cuts really close to the bone. Found it a lot funnier on repeat.
Oh Hartley, you are too harsh. I think the nervous jitteriness of the timing IS the humour here
her timing is not good, audience laugh nervously.
she's american trying to do clever humour.
maybe it is , maybe you have to be american middle class to understand it.
This woman is seriously funny! There is more here

this woman is a thin racist! seriously, she is very funny even as she plays hard and fast with political correctness
distinctly odd
