Kathy Griffin: A Funny Thing At Walter Reed
<snip>
Put together without pretense, false piety or self-congratulation, Griffin's visit to Walter Reed is a captivating little slice of television, and of life. "They need a laugh," Griffin said of the soldiers before embarking for the hospital, and the felicitous and salutary result is Mission Accomplished -- this time for real.

Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List: The season finale (one hour) airs tonight at 10 on Bravo.

I have no idea if people like Kathy Griffin. However, I saw pieces of her visit to Walter Reed

last night. It is worth a watch.

2. I love her
Thanks for the heads up. I keep missing this show but will try to remember to watch it. I usually wait for a marathon and watch her whole season at once. She is so funny, although I don't think this year was as good as last year.

4. Thanks for the reminder! I really like her.
I watched her on Anderson Cooper last night promoting her final show and they were both really funny. Her show has been fun to watch, too.

8. Once despised Kathy Griffin, but . . .
that was on that wretched sitcom she was on.

Things change, though.

Have tickets to her September 5 show in Atlanta. Wouldn't miss it for anything - this is my 3rd Griffin show, and the last 2 were as different and fresh as if each were originals. And hysterical.

I think she has a kind heart. A visit to Walter Reed confirms that to me.
