Let's just declare today Kathy Griffin day

Tonight on Bravo, Kathy Griffin's new special Everybody Can Suck It premieres (9:00 p.m. ET). And right after that, it's time for a new season of My Life on the D-List.. But wait, there's more! All day, Bravo's running a D-List marathon. If you watch this much Kathy Griffin in one day, you will turn into a giant red-headed ball of snark.

What's more, you can watch all of Everybody Can Suck It on the Bravo site if you get bored today. And there are even bonus clips, with titles like "Military Rules" and "Ambien Blackout." Sounds promising. I just hope something like this happens again:

Griffin recently answered a couple of burning questions in an interview with the Chicago Sun-Times:

Are you losing sleep over Paris going to prison?
I'm actually worried in a very opposite way. What if Paris becomes the bad girl in prison? What if she goes on a crazy stabbing rampage or she's the one that the other prisoners are afraid of in the shower. It is a hard time because Paris and I are such close friends. I'm still trying to organize an intervention. I said, "Paris, I'm looking out for you in the way that Bill O'Reilly is looking out for all of our best interests." I care. It's my crime.

Let's talk about the new season of "D-List." You have to cope with your father's death.
I call that episode "A Very Special Blossom." This season is very funny, but I also deal with the fact that after my divorce my dad passed away. It was really difficult, but I'm glad the show got to show how special my dad was. Luckily, he's still in it for a bit this season. The show is also seriously funny this season. I host the gay porn awards and perform in a prison. I go on a D-List date with Nick Carter from the Backstreet Boys. He did pay for dinner. Oh, I also go to a chili cook-off. I'm not kidding. This season is action-packed.

I think that's the first time I've chuckled at a Paris Hilton joke in ... well, ever.

    Not a reply, but no comment box!

    I wish I could see her show about living on the D List!  But they don't show it in Germany.  I liked her since her stand-up comedy on HBO, and the on Suddenly Susan... I think she would be very funny on The View if they hire her!

    Fake hair and all

    Oh, I’m prepared to declare this Kathy Griffin Week, that’s how much I love her stand up.

     

    Her dropping trou at the end of Strong Black Woman was hilarious.  Thx for the pic.

     

    But Kathy – for the love of all that is holy, please please don’t join the View!!!

    And apparently she's

    And apparently she's co-hosting The View for most of the rest of the week! I agree though, I couldn't see her co-hosting permanently though. Barbara Walters won't even invite her to her dinner parties, so I don't know how she would like this idea!

    Can't wait....

    I can't wait to watch the new season beginning tonight.  I'm also looking forward to picking up the first season of her show on DVD next Tuesday.

    Love KG!!

    Love Kathy Griffin, and so glad she's back. D-List is the only reality show worth watching.

    So sorry to hear about Kathy's dad. I always loved when her parents made an appearance on the show, mostly to sit around and drink! Brought back memories of my Scotch-Irish upbringing, when family get-togethers consisted basically of everyone getting sloppy drunk!

    Welcome back, Kathy, and condolences on your dad. He seemed awesome!

    Fav Comedienne

    Her stories about Rosie, Amfar, Sharon, and the power lesbians is THE funniest thing ever. I laugh every time.

    I love her parents for making wine in a box cool again.

    Kathy Griffin

    Love her!  Loved the show last night!  She is even getting better. 

    I would love to know what happened to her marriage.  When she was asked about it, and broke down, I was surprised.  Comedians especially tend to blow over the emotional stuff, at least in public.  "Yeah, fuck it, we're divorced, whatever." 

    I'm going to paraphrase. (badly) But did she say something like, "It was my illusion that he loved me."?  Just curious.  I'll watch it again, I'm sure.

    Much as I love her I'm still pissed at The View.  I deleted it from my Tivo season passes and didn't even watch Susie Orman when she co- hosted.  I'll get over it, but for now, I pass.

    I love you all!

    She says he stole from her

    I remember reading on her website not long after the divorce about this.  Kathy says that the reason she and Matt separated the first time and finally divorced was because she discovered that Matt had procured an ATM card linked to her personal accounts and over time, stole $72,000 from her.  After she learned that, the obvious trust issues overwhelmed any reconciliation attempts, and the divorce was finalized.  She spoke about it on Larry King, and Matt's representation denied the allegations.  They are no longer speaking. 

    Also, Kathy, like Phyllis Diller, has been very honest about the amount of plastic surgery she has undergone.  She has talked about it in her act.  In one episode of her show, she even has botox shots on camera.
