History Series / TheSarahSilvermanProgram

* CryingWolf: Season 2, Episode 10, ''Patriot Act''. Sarah attacks and accuses many bearded folks of being OsamaBinLaden. Obviously, they're not. Laura grows tired of it, and demands that Sarah just control herself, no matter what she thinks she sees. Later, while riding her [[http://thevinylvillage.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/us-games-24-inch-hopper-pe-bouncing-ball.jpg green sit-and-bounce,]] [[spoiler:Sarah actually ''does'' cross paths with Bin Laden, who is getting ready for a round of tennis.]]

* FrivolousLawsuit: Sarah sues HomeAlone. Not the makers of it, the movie itself. The judge points out that you can't sue a movie, which is an amorphous concept. She ends up winning the case anyways.

Silverman played a sometimes-[[JerkWithAHeartOfGold sweet]] sometimes-{{jerkass}} but [[AdamWesting always oblivious version]] of [[AsHimself herself]], similar to her persona from her [[{{sitcomic}} stand-up routine]]. She is unemployed and supported by her sister, a nurse (Laura Silverman), who is dating a cop (Jay). She has two gay neighbors, Brian and Steve, or "gaybors" as her Nana calls them.

* ActingForTwo: The young actress who plays Sarah's daughter in "Not Without My Daughter" is the same actress who plays the child version of Sarah in the {{Pilot}} and other episodes.

* [[HitlersTimeTravelExemptionAct Hitler's Time Travel Exemption Act]]: [[spoiler: Averted. Dougie kills a certain [[AdolfHitler Austrian art student]] and saves Sarah's life, incidentally preventing the Holocaust too.]] She admonishes him for messing with history, but lets him off easy considering all the good he did.

* BlackLikeMe: Parodied. The plot of an entire episode involves Sarah getting into an argument over whether it's harder to be black or Jewish. Sarah spends the rest of the episode in Al Jolson-style {{blackface}}. When people react with disgust and outrage at the blackface, she mistakes this as actual racism towards black people, because of course her disguise is [[PaperThinDisguise flawless]], so it couldn't possibly be that. It's later revealed that the black man she got into the argument with spent the same amount of time in a false hooked nose, a yarmulke, glued-on side curls and a T-shirt that read "I <3 MONEY!" in [[TheBackwardsR faux-Hebrew text]]. Just like Sarah, he mistakes any hatred he gets for his costume as people hating on Jews.

* TheDanza: Applies to most of the cast, first and last (but not middle) name for the title character and her sister.

* RealLifeRelative: Sarah Silverman and Laura Silverman. it's not a coincidence.
** Although in real life, Laura is Sarah's ''older'' sister.

* ScrewedByTheNetwork: Despite its immediate and continual success, networks rarely showed reruns of the episodes for very long, and after every season ended, all episodes and ads and discussion of the show would be dropped for ''months'' at a time. Fans were in a constant state of not knowing whether or not the show had been cancelled yet. After a third season, the show's episodes were quickly pulled away again ... only with a quiet message saying the show has been cancelled.

* CondescendingCompassion: Sarah with Fred Blorth.
