Get a head start on tonight’s extra Jewish-ish TV lineup with this pilot Sarah Silverman made for NBC back in 2012 and posted today to Jash.
In the never-picked up “Susan 313,” Silverman plays Susan Farrow, a former musician who moves back to her apartment after the deterioration of her 10-year relationship. Interspersed between scenes of Susan trying to reintegrate into her building — and life as an independent single woman — she deconstructs the program in what appears to be a cross between a focus group and an AA meeting.
The show is racy for NBC but far tamer than Silverman’s regular fare, and ultimately, very, very watchable. Also, Jeff Goldblum has a cameo. Check it out.
