Kathy Griffin Gets A Weekly Talk Show On Bravo

At TCAs they announced that Bravo is giving Kathy Griffin her own weekly talk show named, Kathy. Her talk show will feature everything pop culture. According to the network, she’ll rant on “the week’s biggest headlines and tabloid gossip as well as feature stand-up routines, celebrity interviews and taped segments.”

Her show would take the talk show count to two on Bravo. I love Kathy very much, but two talk shows on one cable network is excessive, don’t you think? I’m sure she’ll do just fine, but I’m curious to see how ratings go given they’re saturating the airwaves with Miss Andy five nights a week. Time will tell…until then I’ll “just tip it!”
