Kathy Griffin just now on CNN: |
|
Edited on Thu Jan-01-09 01:07 AM by JackBeck
She was being heckled by someone in Times Square and her response?
"Screw you! I'm working here, buddy. You know I don't go to your job and knock the dicks out of your mouth!"
Happy 2009, DU!

4. Yup. As they were breaking for a commercial. |
|
We've been playing over and over for the last 10 minutes.

8. And I thought her request for a pap smear from Sanjay Gupta was hilarious. |
|
There were many memorable moments this evening during Kathy and Anderson's Time Square report.
I'm pretty sure they will go viral within the next few days.

31. I was laughing till I was crying |
|
One thing's for sure, there'll be a hell of a lot more people tuned in next year to see what she'll do next.
It's New Year's Eve, not brain surgery. After 2008, I'd rather laugh.
I thought it was cute that she and Anderson Cooper danced together at midnight. Plus, he got in a few zingers, too.

6. I wish they'd put Suddenly Susan out on DVD |
|
Or start showing in syndication again. Kathy grew up wanting to be the wise-cracking "Rhoda" sidekick to "Mary" in an office sitcom, and it actually happened. Suddenly Susan's a poor man's Mary Tyler Moore, but it's still the most successful knock off of it there's ever been.

Bravo is all about Kathy tonight. Good for her!

And the bitchy retorts to her from the CNN correspondents were the best.

normal sidekick would be just fine (Erica Hill).

She'll likely be back again next year, so maybe you should plan on watching something else.

24. That leaves the following: |
|
Fox noise (NOT) MSNBC (prison lockups) - NOT ABC/NBC/CBS - Kiddie bands, except for Dick Clark (poor man is barely alive).
ESPN - Chris Berman going back, back, back, its a new year. NOT.
The Weather Channel - Jim Cantore, in a big storm. NOT
Wolf Blitzer is better than the ditz named Kathy Griffin!
Jeebus!!

We watched Wanted, and then when that was over we watched my daughter play her Tales of Symphonia game. :party:
The only teevee stuff we watched was the ball drop in NY and the countdown here in Dallas. :P

27. OK. Glad someone enjoyed her. |
|
We kept having to mute her until Anderson started talking.
Oh well. I thought there might have been more excitement this year with a new President, but there was nothing of interest on which is why CNN ended up on.
We watched a movie and then a comedian on HBO until CNN, because there was nothing of interest on this year, unlike years in the past.
I guess I gotta find a venue where she might actually be amusing and worth watching.
