Sarah Silverman’s show says give love a chance

Sarah Silverman is out to show that Americans can bridge their deep differences. But the comedian is as eager to make people laugh as to encourage them to see what they have in common. Speaking to a TV critics’ meeting Thursday, Silverman said that’s the goal for her fall Hulu series, “I Love You, America.” Silverman said the show is intended to be the opposite of an echo chamber, instead making connections with what she called “unlike-minded people.” The show is intended to be smart and moving, but also silly and “aggressively dumb,” Silverman said, calling that her favourite kind of comedy.
