Oops, wrong number.

A receptionist for Horizon Health Sales & Development, a company in Lewisville TX, has been getting hundreds of phone calls the last few days. Apparently Sarah Silverman Fans have been incorrectly dialing the number from her billboard promoting the MTV Movie Awards. The number is 1-877-SARAH-07. Not 1-800! Bless her heart. If she didn't know who Sarah Silverman was before this, she does now! So if you want a good time, call Sarah - but dial 1-877 first. :)

Jimmy Kimmel Live

Sorry that I had the date wrong for Sarah's appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live. It was the 16th, not the 15th. Here is video of her appearance on the show:

"A Huge Eyesore"

Sarah Silverman is on the front page of today's San Francisco Chronicle. Apparently the brightness of a billboard containing her picture is annoying many passing drivers causing many complaints in the SF area. Safety hazard or anti-semitism? ;)

Fired!

When actress Annabelle Gurwitch was fired from a play by Woody Allen, she wondered how she would cope with being downsized by a cultural icon. Turning to friends in show business she was assured she was not alone so she decided to write & produce a film about being fired in the biz. Fired! features interviews with a who’s-who of top-rated comedians and actors, including Tim Allen, Sarah Silverman, David Cross, Illeana Douglas, Bob Odenkirk, Andy Dick, Fred Willard and more.

Sarah Silverman will host this year's MTV Awards!!!

Sarah Silverman is set to host this year's MTV Movie Awards!

Sarah jokes about it saying ''Ever since I was a little girl, before it [MTV] even started in 1980 I said, 'Someday, I want there to be an all-music channel that gives out awards for movies. And I want to host that show."

The show will air live June 3 from the Gibson Amphitheatre in Los Angeles.

How is Sarah preparing for her new gig?

''I'm getting ready,'' she said. ''I'm exercising every day and I do 10 push-ups, I do eight sit-ups and then I rinse off. ... I want to go just a little bit too far. I'm training for this the way what's-her-face trained for 'T2.'''

Saturday Night Live Documentary

NBC has ordered up another documentary on the history of “Saturday Night Live,” this time focusing on the show's up-and-down ride through the 1990s.

“Saturday Night Live in the '90s: Pop Culture Nation” is the third in a series of films about the late-night institution by director-producer Kenneth Bowser. The previous two, focusing on the show's early years and the tribulations of the 1980s, aired in 2005.

As with the past two docs, “Pop Culture Nation” will be filled with interviews from cast members and writers, including Chris Rock, Mike Myers, Tina Fey and Will Ferrell. It will also feature two little-used players who have since gone on to much wider fame: Sarah Silverman and David Koechner.

“Saturday Night Live in the '90s” is scheduled to air May 6 on NBC.

Click here for a transcript of one of Sarah's hilarious SNL "Weekend Update" deliveries from the early 90's. (Youtube took down the video of it)
