Emmy winner Sarah Silverman‘s second original Netflix comedy special, the newly titled PostMortem, is set to premiere globally on the service on May 20.
Coming on the heels of Sarah Silverman: Speck of Dust (2017), also for Netflix, Silverman’s new hour sees her find comedy in the darkest corners of life, following the recent death of both of her parents.
