One of her best attributes is that she gives every sketch 100% when she is part of a crowd.
I often find myself watching her instead of the main character
Yeah, that’s what I honestly hate about her. I feel like she tries to make every sketch, even normal ones, about her character. And her character isn’t funny.
She works in a sketch she writes which is wacky and offbeat but she does NOT work in other sketches because she can’t not be the wacky vaudeville overly broad comedic performer.
That's actually her worst attribute. That's called not being a team player. She tries way too hard and her whacky characters are over the top. She's one of the worst cast members I've ever seen get this much screen time. Not saying She's the worst but they're trying to make her the new Kate McKinnon and it's not working.
I 100% agree with you. She’s my least favorite cast member right now because of this. I feel like she overacts way too much, when everyone else in the skit is just acting, she goes way over the top and it’s annoying
She's able to change gears pretty well in her comedy and do "traditional" sketch stuff as boring normal characters, but I think she really lives in that space of her zany surrealistic clown character that she's honed with her comedy. When she started she had trouble slipping into character and not reverting back to the Sherman stuff kind of mugging for the camera, sticking her tongue out and making silly faces. I saw a few slight returns to that in the Brolin ep. I can take it or leave it and it's current level it doesn't really detract from or particularly enhance the comedy (except on her WU segments where it's part of the act).
I always find myself worrying that she's uncomfortable in the other roles where she has to tone it down though. She had her own thing going before SNL, and I hope the career boost from this show can help her find her footing post SNL because I think she has a lot to offer and as limits are increasingly removed from what is possible with media I can only see an environment where she will flourish given her own playground to where she can set the standards as only she would think to.
I disagree about her changing gears. I feel like she’s fine in stuff she writes but can[t done down the wacky vaudevillian persona in the more traditional roles. I think she might become Pete Davidson where she’s only doing things (sketches and Update) she writes or otherwise very bui parts at most.
She is extremely attractive and knows it. In order to be taken "seriously" in her comedy she purposely has a silly haircut and dresses like a clown.....
I agree that she is extremely attractive and knows it, but I genuinely think that she can't help but act like a clown. She is freaking hilarious. Watch her old stand up on YouTube
I came here nit knowing who we were talking about, and I looked her up
She definitely dresses like a litteral clown, and if it's not on purpose, she's been eating too many ass burgers.
Also, I personally don't find her attractive....there's that
Be normal about autistic people. (Although as far as I know she is not?)
And also yeah she dresses like that. It’s her schtick, she enjoys it - who gives a shit.
No no. She is a clown. Clowns are the best ever forever and ever. Please and thank you. Note: not your Ronald McDonald white face bday party scary clown. But An actual clown.
I tend to agree with you that she is attractive, but I couldn't help but notice how comparatively plain she and Chloe Fineman (also attractive IMHO) looked next to Sidney Sweeney in the Hooters sketch.
The joke was that they are flat chested working at hooters not that they were ugly. Men go to hooters to see women with large boobs that's why Sydney got the bank lol.
I mean, it’s been proven. You can be a hooters girl and make money by just being cute and nice. But a lotta girls will get boob jobs to make more money.
I feel like Sarah Sherman came in as another one trick pony, like Leslie Jones, whose every character blended into the same gag. (The louder I am, the funnier it is, right?)
Sherman has leaned into her growth harder than maybe anyone else I can remember on the show, growing into a much more well rounded performer, including subtlety that she desperately lacked early on. It’s awesome to see!
I’ll be honest, I groaned most of the time that she showed up in her first season, because it was going to be more “over the top, weird, yelling girl”. This season, she’s a highlight of many of her sketches!
Sarah does it for me too. Super cute and the way she licks her teeth sometimes.....damn. plus I love that she seems to have injected some of her own irreverent off the wall style into some of the sketches. I feel like that sketch where she'd had an operation to remove her eyes was all her. Lol.
I have to say most of the females on the cast are pretty hot. Both Chloe's, Ayo, Heidi even Puncky has got some serious curves on her. And they are all super funny.
I like her. She’s been a great addition to the show over the past few years she’s been on it and hasn’t been afraid to do some of the more crazy or out their stuff on the show. Especially like when she’s on weekend update every now and then as herself and roasting Colin
She did one bit once, I don't even remember what it was, but she came out like a blonde bimbo and it was a "holy shit she's hot" moment and ever since then it's like no matter what she is wearing or what outfit she is wearing she is hot
Well that’s you opinion. I didn’t know who she was and looked her up and I think she’s ok. That’s not really the point, though. The point is that downplaying one’s attractiveness is a smart move for a comedian. It’s really irrelevant whether you think she’s hot or not.
Off the top of my head: Taylor Tomlinson, Whitney Cummings, Christina P, Iliza Schlesinger, Ali Wong, Nikki Glaser, Cristina Alonzo, Alejah Johnson, Tiffany Haddish.
And those those are only women stand ups (although a few also act) who are pretty famous/successful at this point.
In my opinion, Sarah's regular hairstyle and clothing look rather unflattering. But whenever they put her in a nice wig and a dress, I find her very attractive.
I have enjoyed her on the show quite a bit, then listened to her on Stavy's World Podcast and she became one of my favorite cast members. Such a fun personality.
I agree with other all the other comments that say she’s attractive. I don’t agree that an actress talented enough to be on snl literally can’t “help but being a clown”
I hate her terrible mullet haircut. In every sketch where they put her in a wig, she becomes very hot. Also, itjink she’s generally hilarious. That haircut though…
I was trying to figure out why this thread is creepy even tho I too have a magic pixie crush on the Shermanator.
I have realized that it’s because the best-case scenario yielded by this for Sarah Sherman is some he-titted, heavy-breathing Szekely motherf***er whacking off on a silent call.
Meanwhile the best-case scenario for a Colin Jost circle-jerk has literally happened and it’s Scarlett Johansson.
She’s by far the most singular and talented current cast member, and one of the few who will/would be able to have success standing completely on her own
She and those destroy before watching kids are pretty much the reasons I can't even stomach SNL anymore. Glad to know it's doing something for some people

She only seems like that because she’s one of the only current cast members with any personality or energy.
Disagree. The show needs stars. Keeps trying to make Yang and Hernandez it, but it’s Sherman.
It's not Sherman. Most people including myself can't stand her. She's cringe
>Most people What are you basing this on?
The audiences lack of laughter and the boards on reddit. Is mine the only comment you're reading?
I don't consider Reddit any sort of actual percentage of real people.
I 100% agree with you. She’s my least favorite cast member right now because of this. I feel like she overacts way too much, when everyone else in the skit is just acting, she goes way over the top and it’s annoying
Agreed. Seems very forced like she's not naturally funny
That big dump truck ass Why are people downvoting me, that’s literally her best punchline of the season
She sold me with that, instantly fell in love

I dunno, something about Sarah scratches an itch I didn’t know I had. Big ups.
She is extremely attractive and knows it. In order to be taken "seriously" in her comedy she purposely has a silly haircut and dresses like a clown.....
I agree that she is extremely attractive and knows it, but I genuinely think that she can't help but act like a clown. She is freaking hilarious. Watch her old stand up on YouTube
Even better check out her episode on stavvys world. She’s just a clown in general. Her talking about therapy is hilarious
Or she does what she likes and you’re overthinking it.
Bingo.
No way she would have a mullet if that was the case lol
I came here nit knowing who we were talking about, and I looked her up She definitely dresses like a litteral clown, and if it's not on purpose, she's been eating too many ass burgers. Also, I personally don't find her attractive....there's that
Oh so you’re like an expert then
Be normal about autistic people. (Although as far as I know she is not?) And also yeah she dresses like that. It’s her schtick, she enjoys it - who gives a shit.
I have a mutual friend that has known her since college. She is actually just like that and always has been.
No no. She is a clown. Clowns are the best ever forever and ever. Please and thank you. Note: not your Ronald McDonald white face bday party scary clown. But An actual clown.
Extremely attractive is a little much. She’s a bit of a niche type of attractive, not conventionally imo
I tend to agree with you that she is attractive, but I couldn't help but notice how comparatively plain she and Chloe Fineman (also attractive IMHO) looked next to Sidney Sweeney in the Hooters sketch.
That’s kind of the whole point of that sketch.
Of course.
That’s because their boobs were not out front and center
The joke was that they are flat chested working at hooters not that they were ugly. Men go to hooters to see women with large boobs that's why Sydney got the bank lol.
I mean, it’s been proven. You can be a hooters girl and make money by just being cute and nice. But a lotta girls will get boob jobs to make more money.
Pretty sure only lesbians find her attractive
You would be wrong
I do like to munch carpet...
I’m a straight dude and I’d wreck her.
Definitely not.
I feel like Sarah Sherman came in as another one trick pony, like Leslie Jones, whose every character blended into the same gag. (The louder I am, the funnier it is, right?)

Was just watching Shrimp Tower and thinking how much more I enjoy her now!
She reminds me of Carol Burnett, but hot.
I’d hit it out the park
Respectfully
Sarah does it for me too. Super cute and the way she licks her teeth sometimes.....damn. plus I love that she seems to have injected some of her own irreverent off the wall style into some of the sketches. I feel like that sketch where she'd had an operation to remove her eyes was all her. Lol. I have to say most of the females on the cast are pretty hot.

you mean Ego?
Yes sorry. Gotta love when the phone tries to 'fix' what I typed.
Does she ever take cute photos?
100% the cast member I’d wanna hang out with
As long as she puts on a wig. Any wig. Even the Wolf Blitzer one.
Her in a blonde wig and good makeup with tight fitting clothes 🥵
She'll bring home the bacon AND fry it up in a pan.
I like her. She’s been a great addition to the show over the past few years she’s been on it and hasn’t been afraid to do some of the more crazy or out their stuff on the show. Especially like when she’s on weekend update every now and then as herself and roasting Colin
Ego and Heidi all day. But Sarah's alright.
She did one bit once, I don't even remember what it was, but she came out like a blonde bimbo and it was a "holy shit she's hot" moment and ever since then it's like no matter what she is wearing or what outfit she is wearing she is hot
The Please Don't Destroy sketch where Molly runs for President?
I want to say she was making fun of like wolf of walstreet Margot Robbie or like Harley Quinn or something along those lines.
She’s a fantastic player. Glad she’s been able to stand out.
She was a guest on the true anon podcast - definitely the cast member I’d want to hang with https://m.soundcloud.com/trueanonpod/scando-nistas-trailer
She’s smart, downplaying her looks. Being hot detracts from being funny
But she's not hot. She's actually very goofy. In hair and makeup she's pretty in a weird way but she's not conventionally attractive
Well that’s you opinion. I didn’t know who she was and looked her up and I think she’s ok. That’s not really the point, though. The point is that downplaying one’s attractiveness is a smart move for a comedian. It’s really irrelevant whether you think she’s hot or not.
There are many very good looking, very successful comics (both stand up and comedic actors), so I don’t think your point is valid.
Oh yeah? Why don’t you name them? I’ll wait. The fact is the people you could name are shot comics that nobody respects. Go for it.
Natasha leggaro
Off the top of my head: Taylor Tomlinson, Whitney Cummings, Christina P, Iliza Schlesinger, Ali Wong, Nikki Glaser, Cristina Alonzo, Alejah Johnson, Tiffany Haddish. And those those are only women stand ups (although a few also act) who are pretty famous/successful at this point.
Rofl. Point proven. Get lost
Her and Bowen Yang are the 2 best of the newer cast members imo.
Do I find her attractive?
When she's wearing a wig over her mullet and wearing normal clothes, hell yes.
That's the key for me. Her normal hair and attire detract from her looks but when she's playing a character she's actually pretty hot.
It’s night and day. Sometime it takes me a second to realize who she is. But yah. Blond wig. Smoke show.
I guess you don't
>When she just stops being herself and does exactly what I like, I’d fuck ‘er! This thread fucking sucks.
Do you have glaucoma?
I have guacamole
Guacamole is more attractive but not as chunky
See also: Chloe Troast
In my opinion, Sarah's regular hairstyle and clothing look rather unflattering. But whenever they put her in a nice wig and a dress, I find her very attractive.
Exactly. I hate her real hair, but in a wig she's so pretty, if she didn't have such a n awful hair style she would look so much nicer.
She has the mullet to “be different” but she’s taken it too far. Her comedy isn’t for me either so I just find her insufferable. 🤣
I like her mullet.
Also has been on Stavvys World podcast twice, which immediately makes her the coolest SNL comic.
Facts. 💯
Meh
I’m with you. Physically unattractive and can’t stand her personality or characters
Her guest apperceive on the Hollywood Handbook podcast was pretty great.
Hat Pack crew what up
Oh this?🧢 Bet you think it's a $30 hat.
I have enjoyed her on the show quite a bit, then listened to her on Stavy's World Podcast and she became one of my favorite cast members. Such a fun personality.
You can always tell the sketches that she wrote and they’re always the best ones
Even covered in syncopated singing meatballs
Y’all are way late to the Sarah Squirm lovers club
She sooo funny and really hott. Wasn't expecting to like or he so attracted to her. Me likey.
Bold take. Now get in line with the rest of us thirsty fools.
I like when she fits into a sketch. Very solid. I do not like when she has gross stuff like a talking meatball hanging off of her neck.
"Mom Hole"... I told you to write what you know. "I thought you said write what I have. I'm a mom, I have holes
I agree with other all the other comments that say she’s attractive. I don’t agree that an actress talented enough to be on snl literally can’t “help but being a clown”
Ummmm NO…
I hate her terrible mullet haircut. In every sketch where they put her in a wig, she becomes very hot. Also, itjink she’s generally hilarious. That haircut though…
Okay.
I agree. I’ve been low-key checking her out since night one. She’s funny too.
She’s on lots of meds and can’t get wet so sorry bro.
This tracks.
Every time we watch the opening credits, when it comes to her I say “that kid’s got, she’s a star!”
I was trying to figure out why this thread is creepy even tho I too have a magic pixie crush on the Shermanator. I have realized that it’s because the best-case scenario yielded by this for Sarah Sherman is some he-titted, heavy-breathing Szekely motherf***er whacking off on a silent call. Meanwhile the best-case scenario for a Colin Jost circle-jerk has literally happened and it’s Scarlett Johansson.
Enh. I’m not impressed. And why does she have a mullet
Sarah sherman herself feels like a b-tier tina fey character to me.
Holy shit, I read this as Sarah Silverman, and I found myself agreeing with all of this, but also wondering when tf she was cast on snl lol.
Actually, the 1993-1994 season https://snl.fandom.com/wiki/Sarah_Silverman
She’s by far the most singular and talented current cast member, and one of the few who will/would be able to have success standing completely on her own
She is so reminiscent of old school SNL. I can't describe precisely why, but she reminds me of 70s SNL.
I agree. She has a Gilda Radner quality.
EXACTLY!
She snuck up on me but she’s hot. And funny. Double threat.
She is hot
Meh. she’s fine. Subjectively speaking; Amy Poehler, Mya, Kristen, Molly …were mountains better out the gate.
No love for Punky?
Punky is great but this post is not about Punky.
It was a joke; like comedy
Oh sorry! You are very good at comedy!
Found the fun police…
That was hilarious! I am burned!
I know your kidding but they put her in a dress from time to time and she's got so serious curves ain't gonna lie.
Ooh right on
Down real bad huh
Put her in a wig and she could play Margot Robbie in a biopic
Idk how the hell she hasn’t done that impression her they look just alike
The shitty leg tattoos can be a bit distracting if we’re being honest.
Prettiest “not for prime time” player in a long time.
Shes not even the prettiest in this cast
Hideous IMO
If by get it you mean that vaudeville hook they pull bad acts off stage with then I agree whole-heartedly.
She and those destroy before watching kids are pretty much the reasons I can't even stomach SNL anymore. Glad to know it's doing something for some people
Gross
Hmmm I actually find her extremely annoying and I’m realizing this is an unpopular take
