"The Sarah Silverman Program" - Two gay characters

Any of you guys watching Sarah's show on Comedy Central? I think she's great but I've come to realize she's one of those black and white figures in popular culture, you either love her or hate her...there is no middle ground. One of the interesting things about the show is that he two male best friends are a gay couple. They are not your typical TV gay couple. If you get a chance to see one episode keep an eye out for the show called "Muffin Man" aka "The TAB episode". It's nice to see a "average" gay couple on TV

I really enjoyed her show, but

her appearance at the MTV awards was a real turn-off. Totally made me reconsider my opinion of her. Where her show made it seem that she was mocking jerks like her character, her shtick at MTV made it seem like she really was that kind of thoughtless, gross person.

We wrote about Sarah...

Tons when the show was airing first-run (it's in reruns now), and I also loved the two shlubby gay friends and the show overall. It got picked up for a second season after only one or two episodes, so it looks like we'll be seeing more and that CC is really behind the show. Sarah can be hit or miss with me in her standup but I think the show really works.
