Sarah Sherman, the SNL cast member also known as Sarah Squirm, has locked in a premiere date for her debut comedy special, HBO’s Sarah Squirm: Live + In the Flesh. Her new hour, directed by Cody Critcheloe, debuts Friday, December 12 at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT on HBO and will also be available to stream on HBO Max.
In Live + In the Flesh, Sherman rips off the straitjacket after four seasons (and counting) on Saturday Night Live, unleashing a festering and hilarious hour of bodily fluids, open-wound confessionals, and jokes that will leave scars on your soul.
