Title: Hey, watch me. I'm over here. Look, look.
Product review: Well, I guess we need humor to soften or make sense of life's hard parts. But shock-value comics can easily slip into vulgarity, and who wants to catch themselves laughing at vulgarity? My common reactions to this DVD were "did she really say that?!?", not "gee, that was funny". I do like her amusement at life's incongruities and wish she could do more of that and less orifice humor.Silverman seems to have little sense of comic timing; she just seems to stumble across punch lines or almost forgets to recite them. Her continual playing with her hair was an annoyance and borderline unprofessional. The pretaped segments and music videos were lame and obvious padding/filler.Root-canal comics often back themselves into a one-dimensional outhouse of their own building. Use of the f-word automatically tends to crowd out the subtle gradations between reality and what-should-be from which most humor springs.
