Sarah Silverman, An E-Type, And A Few Jokes We Can't Make Here

Interested in seeing some rolling shots of a remarkably decent E-Type, some product placement for the new Acura RLX, and a conversation between comedians? What if we threw in some offensive content?

Jerry Seinfeld’s series Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee features an E-Type Series 2 and comedienne Sarah Silverman. Ms. Silverman offers some, ah, fascinating opinions on the Catholic Church and various sexual topics. If you think she’s funny, you will probably think she is funny in this. If you don’t, this won’t change your mind.

Regardless, it’s a nice chance to see some very well-done shots of a well-restored Jag, including wide-angle interior scenes. The Acura RLX also makes a pre-planned appearance in the show. I’m not sure that’s a good idea; although the RLX is quite sleek when compared to, say, the Lexus LS460, after looking at the Jag it’s a bit of a fright.

    I like Jerry's little Internet show, he had some older comics on there for the aging demographic of this site who prefer Laurel and Hardy ;-) It beats duck call dynasty or whatever crap people who pay for cable watch.

    Most irritating car show ever. Not funny. The coffee angle is stupid. Silverman just gets a chuckle because she sounds like she has sucked helium, and her humor is awkward.

      I see Silverman's humor as leaving nothing untouched. I'm a devout Catholic, but her observations of my people through her relationship with Kimmel is hilariously spot on. Magic flying Jesus? Her take on her own family is a riot...again, no boundaries... Sure, there are awkward moments.

    The show's really spotty, and Sarah Silverman is definitely an acquired taste. However, before writing it off completely, it is worth going to Crackle and watching the ones from the first season with Larry David; Mel Brooks and Carl Reiner; and Michael Richards. As to the Acura sponsorship, it is way off target, but at least Seinfeld makes fun of them for it.

    That car is such a pig, I mean Silverman.
