The Cut

Two shows are wrapping up their seasons tonight: The first, Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List, gets my vote as the funniest and possibly most interesting “celebreality” show since season one of The Osbournes. Unlike other star-studded reality shows (cough, Bobby and Whitney, Chaotic, The Anna Nicole Smith Show), Kathy Griffin actually brings something to the table. She seems refreshingly honest, and we actually get some sort of insight as to the obstacles she faces, both in her career and her personal life. We see what fuels her, and at the very least, we get a good number of laughs along the way, courtesy of her generally scathing remarks. If you haven’t caught this brief season, check it out tonight at 10 PM on Bravo. Definitely one of the surprises of the summer. Oh, and I put the picture up of “Melanie” because she’s my friend.

Another surprise of the summer has been The Cut and how completely derivative it is. You might not know it, but this show has actually been around for a few months now, and tonight, CBS moves it yet again (5th time) to a new time slot for the big finale. It’s a shame, really. This show actually had a fantastic cast with colorful, energetic, and crazy characters. Alas, too bad Tommy was more rigid than Julie Chen playing freeze tag. For those interested to see who wins the big prize, tune in at 8 PM on CBS. J. Lo and Naomi Campbell will be making cameos, and we know they always lead to good things…

    I’ll say this much .. was not much of a Kathy fan before the show. Now I LOVE THIS WOMAN! She’s real. She’s honest. She pulls no punchs. Has no delusions of granduer. Fights for everything she’s accomplished and even when she’s not well received, refuses to give up! Whether she realizes it or not, she’s actually becoming a role model!!

    And as for Bravo … if she’s willing, sign her up for season 2 already!!!!

    I agree… I have always loved Kathy Griffin and this show seems to really capture not only how cool she is, but how much bullshit goes on in Hollywood.
    Buy her DVD!!!! It’s hillarious! Help her pay for that A-List house!

    I love D-list and can’t believe that there were so few episodes. I totally want to hang out with Kathy.

    Thank you for complimenting the casting on The Cut.

    I’ve always liked the cast. One of the most diverse of any reality show. Lots of hot guys of all different stripes. Go Wes. Go Felix. Go Chris!

    Kathy Griffin stole my partner’s cigarettes in a DC bar.

    We should ahve a contest to see who can predict how many hudreds of thousands of dollars worth of Hilfinger merchandise/money he had to give J Lo to appear in this thing. THe woman probably ahs a lifetime supply of bad Hilfiger jeans.

    What a great window into Hollywood the show was last night. What is cool about D-List is Kathy showing what she is without make-up…it underscores how everyone seems to be falling apart in La La Land..and how much energy goes into maintaining your “image”. I also liked the bar scene where she ran into the guy from Nsync..it’s like everyone’s on the D-List.
