Her new special "Straight to Hell" airs tonight on Bravo.
Anyone else watching?
I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.

Posted: 11/29/07 at 4:36pmI will TIVO it - I don't want to see it yet as I am seeing her live this Saturday night, and would hate to watch the special and then not be surprised on Saturday should she repeat the material.

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

I was in the audience, too. But this will be the first time I'm HEARING it, since the sound system was so god-awful. Yay.

Posted: 11/29/07 at 4:53pmWe were luckier on the floor, but I thought it was sh*tty for you guys in the balcony, especially after she was told she had to keep going whether or not the sound was fixed.

Posted: 11/29/07 at 5:00pmYeah, it stunk, but I got a refund, so the sting wore off a bit. And Kathy made a hysterical apology on her website, so that helped.

I've heard that once her material is aired on TV, she cuts it from her show.

Posted: 11/29/07 at 10:23pmI love Kathy, but this show was not as funny as d-listed.
The only review of a show that matters is your own.

Posted: 11/29/07 at 11:07pmThat was amazing. I laughed uncontrollably the whole time.
I have NEVER met Cheyenne Jackson. I have never hung out with him in his dressing room, he did not tweet me, he never bought me a beverage, and he mostly certainly didn't tickle me. . .that is all.

Posted: 11/29/07 at 11:33pmIt hasn't aired on the West Coast yet, but I'll be tuning in. It's nice to have something good on when everything else is a rerun.
#17re: New Kathy Griffin special!
Posted: 11/30/07 at 12:14amIt has aired twice here in Denver already. (Back to back). it was ok. Not as good, in my opinion, as some of her earlier shows. And it seems she was bleeped even more during this show. But her Paris Hilton story and Barbara Walters "inappropriate" line had me on the floor.

This was almost identical to her performance at SUNY Purchase earlier this year, so there weren't as many surprises for me.
I would agree that her older routines are funnier - this one was pretty hilarious, though. I love when she makes fun of Dr. Phil

Well it has been announced that the Jacksons are going out on a reunion tour.
That's all I'm gonna say.

Posted: 11/30/07 at 1:16amI thought it was pretty funny. There were quite a few laugh out load moments for me as I was trying not to since my mom was asleep in the other room.
