Sarah Sherman Sets Debut Comedy Special at HBO (EXCLUSIVE)

Titled after her vulgar alter ego, “Sarah Squirm: Live + In the Flesh” will premiere on the cable network and HBO Max in December.

In the special, the “Saturday Night Live” star “rips off the straitjacket, unleashing a festering hour of bodily fluids, open-wound confessionals, and jokes that will leave skid marks on your soul,” per HBO.

Take it from Sherman, who cautions: “Word to the wise – don’t watch while eating.”

On Saturday, Sherman will kickstart her fifth season on “SNL,” where she’s known for her offbeat sketches and “Weekend Update” appearances. In 2023, she appeared in Adam Sandler’s “You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah,” and she’s set to star in the upcoming Sandler-produced Netflix movie “Roommates.” She opened for Sandler at Madison Square Garden earlier this month, and she’s known for her popular live show “Helltrap Nightmare.”

SNL’s Sarah Sherman Lands First HBO Special, Out This December

The Saturday Night Live star’s debut hour, Sarah Squirm: Live + In The Flesh, will premiere on HBO and HBO Max this December. An exact date has not yet been announced. The special is being executive produced by Sherman’s SNL boss Lorne Michaels through Broadway Video, alongside Josh Safdie’s Central Pictures, Rotten Science, and Sherman collaborator Jack Bensinger.

As we’ve reported, Sherman, who often performs under her “Sarah Squirm” moniker, taped the special earlier this month at The Bell House in Brooklyn. She has been touring the show over the last two years.

HBO describes the hour as a mix of “bodily fluids, open-wound confessionals, and jokes that will leave skid marks on your soul.” Nina Rosenstein, HBO’s EVP of Late Night & Specials, called the special “like plugging directly into a live wire.”
