Hulu Axes Silverman’s ‘I Love You America’

[additional-authors]
January 9, 2019
Sarah Silverman is the creator of “I Love You, America.”

Hulu has no more love for “I Love You America.” The streaming service has canceled Sarah Silverman’s variety-talk series after one 21-episode season.

“Well, Hulu canceled ‘I LOVE YOU AMERICA’ and we’re all pretty damn heartbroken. … So in traditional twitter funeral style, I’ll be RTing the love,” Silverman tweeted the news.

The comedian co-produced the series with Adam McKay, Amy Zvi and Gavin Purcell, for Funny or Die, which released a statement in reaction.

“We are so proud of ‘I Love You, America’ and congratulate Sarah, the producers and the entire team for engaging thoughtful conversation and showcasing such diverse points of view every week,” it read. “Whether it was connecting with firemen in Mineola, Texas, over ‘pooping their pants’ stories, or going on a blind date with a conservative lobbyist in D.C., Sarah’s commitment was boundless and there is nothing more to say.”
