Brian Steinberg Senior TV Editor Some innovators try to devise a gadget that changes the world. Others hope to solve a global social ill. Sarah Sherman is eager to bring fake vomit on “Saturday Night Live” into the modern age.
The comic has gained notice on the long-running NBC late-night series for bizarre humor that blends gross-out jokes with a taste for the absurd. She’s been working with colleagues for months on new technology that would make the act of pretending to throw up onstage a lot easier — and more comfortable. For years, “SNL” cast members have relied on a tube tucked alongside their arm and usually inside a jacket sleeve that spews out liquid approximating vomit or blood.
At just the right moment, the actor holds an arm close to the mouth, and the “vomit rig” does the rest. Dan Aykroyd used such a get-up in 1978 when playing Julia Child, who cut her hand open, and Jay Mohr did much the same in 1994 while playing a nauseated rookie cop. Sherman and her cohorts have fresh ideas in 2023.
“It’s an advanced vomit rig that’s handsfree, kind of like Bluetooth style,” says the comedian, now in her third season. She and fellow cast member Mikey Day wrote a sketch that would make use of it, but it was cut after a dress rehearsal. “Just know that we have some of the most brilliant minds in special effects working around the clock to develop live gags,” she says.
“I’m trying every day to make great things.” Below, Sherman discusses how she brings her distinctive humor to “SNL” and reveals behindthe-scenes details about signature sketches. Variety: Where does your sense of humor come from? Sarah Sherman: I just like outrageous things. I come from a loud, Jewish, outrageous family.
