Get ready for weekly doses of Sarah Silverman, coming to you soon via Hulu.
The digital network has announced plans for a 10-episode season of I Love You, America, a politically-focused talk / variety show, with new episodes airing weekly. It’ll be produced by Funny or Die.
Deadline explains how I Love You, America will be different from Silverman’s past projects, like light sketch series The Sarah Silverman Program.
From inciting treason to telling poop jokes, Sarah Silverman often has been a lightning rod for heated online debate. While she has been open about her political convictions and, like many of her colleagues, has spoken out against President Donald Trump and his policies, the new program is designed to be balanced, with her looking to connect with people who may not agree with her personal opinions through honesty, humor, genuine interest in others, and not taking herself too seriously.
This is Silverman’s first show since her Comedy Central series, but she’s been on TV plenty recently, in a recurring role on Masters of Sex; and, of course, she’s got a new special coming to Netflix soon.
