Jay Johnston From the Sarah Silverman Program..

....is celebrating a birthday today (October 22). If you're not familiar with Jay Johnston, he was on one of the funniest sketch comedy shows ever. Mr Show.

And the show he's on now is the funniest show currently on TV - The Sarah Silverman Program. Jay plays Officer Jay. If you haven't seen it, they're into season three and it's on Thursday nights on Comedy Central. Are any of you fans of this show? If so, you're automatically my friend. If not, go rent the previous seasons and get watching.

My favorite line from the first season by Jay was when he said to Sarah's sister, "It's OK that you're mad at Sarah. She had the chance to honor your mother's memory but she ruined it....by showing a picture of a BM." This was on the famous Cookie Party episode where the opponents dug up Sarah's mother from the grave and were threatening to have sex with the bones. Yes. The show is that good.
