Comedy Central
renews Silverman show

Comedy Central's brand-new show The Sarah Silverman Program will be back for another season. The news comes after its second episode, which aired Thursday. The original series, which airs from 10:30 to 11 p.m., debuted to good numbers for the network, drawing 1.8 million total viewers. That figure made the show's debut the best for a Comedy Central original since the premiere of the animated series Drawn Together (2.2 million viewers) in 2004. (Reuters)
