I dont find her funny at all.

I bet she got that show because of Kimmel

What does Kimmel have to do with it?

She's been dating Kimmel for a few years.

She is terrible. A real comic can do more than make racial and ethnic slurs, which seems to be the meat of Silverman's routine. Or at least all I've seen of her, since I can rarely stand to watch more than a few seconds of her crap.

As far as female comics go, Wanda Sykes cracks me up.

I just don't agree, at all. As far as I'm concerned Sarah Silverman is far and away the funniest female comic of my lifetime (though I am also a big fan of Lisa Lampainelli, and Wanda Sykes isn't too bad). I like her completely deadpan delivery, and she has a level of fearlessness that I have never seen rivaled by any other female comic.

Almost all her stuff has been done before...just probably not by a female comic.
