First of all, I have a pledge to make to all of you. I’m going to try and never say “Owwwww!” again. Seriously. As I watched this episode, I cringed every time I yelled that, and I feel like a frat guy in a bar who screams “Wassup!” or “Show me the Money!” I Promise to work on that. I’m not afraid to work on our relationship.

It was great when you talked about going to Jackson and seeing nothing but a cow and four donkeys. You were so totally talking about my sister-in-law and her kids. They live in Jackson! I laughed my a$$ off! I wish we would have known you were going to Jackson. We could have given you their address and you could have gone and humiliated them in person for us!

That sounds sad, but spending an hour watching you brings so much happiness [gay] to my day that i wouldn't miss it.

I loved this episode! Not all of Michigan is like Jackson though. If you ever get the chance, please, please, please come to Mount Pleasant!! If you did a show at Soaring Eagle Casino here, I'm sure you wouldn't have any problems selling tickets. You are so funny, I don't get what it is with people and how come you aren't off the D-list by now! A lot of the times I'm sitting there watching the show, and we think a lot alike. My humor is similar to yours, a lot of people don't get me either. They just give me these really stupid looks like I'm the dumb one, but I beg to differ. lol Keep up the great work!

Kathy is amazing and although she acts as if her friendliness to the fans is simply because she's D-list, I think it's because she secretly loves being adored...or she wants people to create more word-of-mouth buzz about her. Either way I'd pay double what those tickets were going for to see her show! And although she's already done a tour of "the red states" feel free to come back to Virginia any time!

So far... Love season three. I have already heard about you hosting the GayVN awards and heard you were great. The gays love to gossip. Looking forward to seeing you in Austin, TX. I'm sure you'll do great. Tickets were selling fast so a group of us were quick to act and bought a set together. Hopefully we'll be close enough to enjoy your presence.

I just finished watching the episode while you were in Michigan. I live in Michigan and truly think you may want to reconsider having me as your personal tour promoter for the state of Michigan. You could not have picked two shittier cities than Jackson (only known for it’s fucking state prison and the escapees) and Benton Harbor, also known as Benton Harlem. Both cities are so economically depressed and the people are rednecks and hillbillies. Of course that helps in the making fun of the town. I think there are probably only about 10 gay people in those two communities combined. I live in Kalamazoo and we have an awesome theatre here called the State Theatre. I am certain that I could book you two SOLD OUT shows there filled with enough gay people to make Vegas divas scream!! My partner and I love you and your show and know that Gays, straights and everyone in between love you in Michigan!!

Kathy,
I'm not going to lie... I didn't used to watch your show because as you probably know you can often come off as pretentious, which is far from the truth... well maybe not, but I think you're fabulous. You give me hope that I should continue to be as crude as possible, because like yourself, I think think pussy, bodily function, and Mo's are hilarious. If I were to dye my hair red and have a larger gay posse it would appear that we were seperated at birth. Also, as far as the obnoxious noises go... you and I both know they will not stop... nor should you try to. Mucho love,

P.S. If you date Sanjaya you should bitch slap yourself...Mario Lopez... body of a gay, but a straighty... who could ask for anything more

Just a note: Not all "michigan people" are as boring as they were diplayed in the show! :o) You should have come to Detroit not Jackson or Benton Harbor. BTW- Next time you do a show in Michigan.. Royal Oak and Ferndale (both small cities outside of Detroit) are full of "your people". I'm a HUGE fan and would have loved to attend the show however i had NO idea about it. It was not advertised well; perhaps thats why the small turn out! Keep up the GREAT work and Vagina Talk- us "true" fans LOVE it!!!

I also liked her ex-husband, they seemed to be a loving couple. Did he get the dogs? Kathy's new male assistant is great addition. I think him waiting tables, wearing the advertisement sign really show's his commitment and loyalty to Kath I'm sure Kath made sure he was nice to look at too. Way to go Kathy.

Oh, Kathy. I watched your attempt to raise money from the gem dealers at the Tucson Westin La Paloma on your show tonight.

I've had personal experience working with them for ten years and that is one tough, self-congratulatory crowd. My complaint is that I wanted to see your show in Tucson in July as a birthday present and find out that tickets start at $170 bones!!! Although population has hit one million in Tucson, few of us have that much money to spend on a night out that doesn't include dinner, a movie, a limo and maybe a little sum'in, sum'in. And I can get the sum'in, sum'in for free! Please rethink your ticket prices so your fans can actually attend your show. I wouldn't pay that much (or any money really) to see Madonna OR Clay Aikin, OR even Barry Manilow. Try to keep it real girl.

Ms. Griffin,
I have much empathy for you, I too desperately need to bitch slap consensus reality...
I will be the most famous person on the planet sooner than later, and if you wish you can play a pivotal role. You can do for me what Nick Carter was supposed to do for you - "Is Kathy Griffin the Mary Magdelene of The Second Coming?" You're a redhead like she was - Can you say, "cross-promotion"?
Prophecy states that a sword comes out of my mouth, that I speak like a dragon - you ARE my female equivalent.

Kathy, you have to come to the right places in Michigan. Just as Chicago is not like some other places in Illinois, there are differences between regions here. Really, I love you, but when you started talking about cornfields in Michigan, I had to turn you off last night. We have lots of them, but I have never lived really near one. You can talk smack about us, I guess (that's what you do) but do not misunderstand or misinterpret us. That is harder to forgive. (I recommend certain areas in SE Michigan and mid-Michigan, near colleges and universities.) You should probably stay very far away from western Michigan.

Thanks for being so unique and level headed!! Keep up the awesome work. Oh yeah, and if you ever are looking to see some of South Dakota give us a call and we can show you around!

Being from Michigan myself (and now living in lovely Jersey), I have to admit that I was a bit confused as to why you would go to Jackson and Benton Harbor to find your people. No knock on those areas, but why not go to Ann Arbor, East Lansing, or the Detroit area where you have a better chance of finding more people who know who you are and think you're hilarious?Trust me. I'm your Michigan girl - use me!

Nice to see the new season. But why did you cancel your Springfield MA show? Ticketmaster scammed me out of $7! I know Springfield is kind of awful but jeez, you went to Michigan... At least consider booking Northampton, Margaret Cho performs there and you guys *must* have similar demos...

Kathy,
I am late to your show and your comedy but enjoy it immensely. I live in Chicago and saw you one of the nights you were at the Shubert, er Lasalle Bank theatre. My partner and I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. We loved the bit about telling your mom about the lesbian cruise. Glad you included it on the Suck It special.
As for the show, I can appreciate Jessica's laid-back dry sense of humor; but Tiffany and Tom come off as dead weight some times. Why didn't you hire gay?! Couldn't you just imagine some of the comment "the gays" would have made about the trip to Michigan?!
I was sorry to hear about your father's passing and divorce from Matt. They brought fun to the show and, I'm sure, your life too.
Best wishes and we can't wait to watch the rest of the season!

Sorry you had a rough time in Michigan. You see, we're in economically hard times and we don't have a lot to laugh about right now. I own a dog boutique which I will probably have to close because I can't pay my bills and I'm pretty bummed that you didn't stop in and buy something. Anyway, I'll move to California and look you up. Next time to jokes on "Yoopers" "Fudgies" and "Trolls".

Hi Kathy! Love the show, so glad you're back for a 3rd season...
Have a huge favor to ask of you. One of my closest friends' birthday party is June 15th, in Denver, CO (and OMG! You're performing there! and he scheduled his party BEFORE he knew you'd be there). He's fabulously gay and we must now snub some of his "a-list" friends for ditching his birthday party to go to your show. What would be the best is if you could possibly make his party before your show so that we can rub it in his "a-list" friends that we are apart of the "d-list." Think you can make this happen? If you can, shoot me an email and i'll give you details...hell, even if you can't, shoot me an email anyway, and we'll still rub in their face!!!

Maybe I don't "get it" I mean I still think she's funny sometimes things just go too far. I hope she has some empathy for those kids and their parents.

Kathy, I couldn't wait for season 3 to begin and am not disapointed. It's great. New blood with Tom and Kimberly is good, now that Jessica has her on celebrityhood to manage. But,
Tom quite eerily reminds me of your ex. He has a lot of the same affect and demeannor at times. Its freaky. I hope you aren't in a "needing to have a jerk in your life kind of thing." Tom really seems like a nice guy, except for the fact that he is straight, but your ex did too. I was so sad about the betrayal you mentioned that happened with the ex. You deserve an Alist boyfriend for sure!!!

Hi Kathy,
You are seriously one of the funniest people alive. I rarely LOL even though I use that term in a lot of my email's but I noticed a strange sound coming out of my mouth and what do you know, I was LOLing..... I didn't get to see the whole episode last night, because I was catching up on Season 2. I just got TiVo so now I won't miss an episode. I was sorry to hear about you and Matt and initially I thought it was you that was the one who instigated the breakup. When they played the montage of you both together I see it was you who was always affectionate with him and how broken up you were about the whole breakup. Anyway girl, I am looking forward to more chuckles this season.

I've been a huge fan of yours for years! I love the show! Although, as someone who has lived in Michigan for her entire life, I was a little disappointed about how Michigan was portrayed in the last episode. I've always lived in Metro Detroit and I know that places outside of the D can be a little strange for city-people (me included), but how come you didn't mention that you SOLD OUT in Dearborn, MI?!?! I tried to get tickets and I couldn't because it was sold out!

Now lets get down to business here. Puhlease Jackson and Benton Harbor? I live in Michigan and even I wouldnt bother. A Chili-cookoff? Kathy u are way better than that. Thats a Emo Phillips gig. U have to admit they talk the same speed and clarity. Now the free tickets. What can I say? Oh yeah make them pay. U are more than worth it. And if people cant see that? Well it sucks to be them. Ok, Nick Carter, awesome diss. Except I would have dropped trou and had him kiss that cheek.
And as far as wanting to meet with Liza Minelli. U know as well as I do, just being in the same room is puttin u in danger of having to go to rehab.
CARNAGIE HALL GIRL. U made it there .. U know u can make it everywhere. It may not mean much, but I'm proud of you.

Kathy, I love your show and think you are hilarious! I watch your show all the time! You're so cool! This is probably a dumb question, but are you really an Athiest? I heard you say that and it was hard to belive because you also had said that your parents are very Catholic... I am a Christian, but I still don't mind most "Jesus" jokes. To me, they are funny because you think of Jesus as perfect and thinking of him as otherwise is just plain funny (like thinking of Clay Aiken as a STRAIT redneck). If you think about it they really aren't that offensive because you should show respect for others' opinions. I have a friend that's an Athiest, and we get along pretty well - we just avoid the subject of religion if we can. I try to explain things to her about God and my religion and she's come to understand the beliefs but still reamains an Athiest. (I was just wondering about the subject.)
Best wishes for you, and your mom and dad.
I pray for you...(A bit cheesy, but true.)

I know you came to Detroit a couple of years ago, I don't know how your experience was, but Detroit is a great place to do your comedy. I go and see you all the time. Lots of gays in the metro. Please come to Detroit on your next tour. Thanks!!!

Hey Kathy, I know you are going to get into the whole Paris jail thing and I have this to say, Rumors were they sent her home because she wouldn't eat or drink for fear that the guards would photo her on the john. I say it's because she doesn't know how to wipe herself!!! I mean as a child she had nannys do it and then she had bidets and the no panties air dry!
Love the show. Tell it like it is!

I've watched last season's episodes over and over and they're funny everytime.
Anyway, I just saw her on Tyra Banks show and I want Kathy to know that she can work that runway!! OMG, she totally worked it - I don't care if Tyra taught you or not, you got it!
And why wasn't I walking by Carnegie Hall when she was hanging outside? Damnit, I was! but right before the show began.

I have an idea for you to make money. How about an exercise CD where you motivate people to exercise (kind of) and tell jokes and stories. I think listening to you tell jokes while walking or exercising would really make the time go by. Jackie from Workout would be too boring to listen to because she's too serious. You could yell at everybody and everything.

So Kathy, my mom loved it (and was a litle horrified) when you decided to go to Jackson - as that is where she grew up some 50 years ago. Back then Jackson, MI, was a happening place; she was the book keeper for a headshop that her boyfriend Lonnie owned. Her first response to hearing you say that you were going to Jackson: "Oh shit! Kathy Griffin, people in Jackson don't even know what a gay is." So thanks for making her day... or rather week - she has called all of her sisters to tell them that you were in Jackson and she dug out her old address book so I am pretty sure she is calling everyone she ever met to tell them also. Come to Mobile, AL, or Pensacola, FL, you'll find a lot more liberals and gays here (oddly enough)!!

God bless you, I was having a crappy day yesterday, and by the end of the episode, I was laughing my butt off (and you are just as funny on your blog). I was annoyed by all the rude people you had to put up with at that charity function. Do the people who book you not get what you are all about???
You totally deserve love from the crowds. You ROCK.

Well, i saw her charity event tonight for Sick children and I personally was appalled. Funny as you can be, this took you off the D list and put you on the F list. Granted you had some concern for the fact that there were sick children in the audienc (dying children at that) you still went with the P jokes in a straight crowd with dying children THEn even though donated 10g still complained cause you didnt get anything out of it. What you should have gotten out of it was some self appreciation and the comments at the end I was just appalled and finally changed the channel. You team isnt going to get you off the D list only you can do that by changing your thoughts just slightly. YES your funny and hilarious and I have seen you do some great stuff. But what i saw tongith was just appalling.

Your already an A-lister in our eyes, come on!! My dad, doesn't know any of the people that I'm fans of and today I brought you up in conversation and he's like "yah, that Kathy Griffin is hilarious" and my dad is not hip. By the way, your hair looks so much better now that Matt isn't doing it. It wasn't bad before, but it does look a lot better now. The straighter the better on you!! HA HA HA!! I'm not one of your gays, I'm very married with children. But, please come to Seattle and do a live show soon, were way more open in the Puget Sound.

Don't bunch all of us Michiganders together!! Detroiters are not like Benton Harbor peeps...Jackson, even though it's close to Ann Arbor, yeah, it's a bit farmy...so, not making excuses for them, I just felt Michigan got bad play there as a whole.
I still love you, though! Please come back to Detroit soon, I'm sure we can make you feel better about Michigan without having to give away tickets.
p.s. Personally, I think "Welcome to the Chili-Cookoff MotherF***ers!" is the perfect way to start off an event.

Come clean Kathy. The day before the Jackson, MI show you had a SOLD OUT show in a suburb outside Detroit. I know, I was there. It had been sold out (or darn close) for a long time too. About a month later, you played another gig in Dearborn (borders Detroit) that also sold out and was sold out (or darn close) for a long time too. Instead of Jackson, you should have played Ann Arbor. Instead of Benton Harbor you should have played Grand Rapids. Both of those shows would have easily sold out. Playing Jackson and Benton Harbor in Michigan is like playing Long Beach and Ogdensburg in New York and then complaining that you can't sell tickets in New York. And those people didn't "beg" for you to come over, your webmaster begged fans for someone to be able to host you prior to the show in Jackson. I still love you Kathy, and I'll see you next time you're near Detroit, but that episode was far from honest.

Kathy, I really do love you. However, must you curse in front of the adorable children? It's perfectly normal (I'm not 100% sure if that's the right word), but, come on, at least try not to curse in front of them. Yes, I also believe that children at times can be selfish, but they're just children, you know. If you could be a bit nicer, the parents will love you even more, right? Especially those parents with "disposable incomes," if you know what I mean....

Kathy, you are very funny and your show is creative, unusual and very entertaining. I think that we all feel like we are on someone's D list so it is easy to relate to you. I do have a complaint, though. For the first two shows of the season you seem to think that only "the gays" are your take-to-the-bank fanbase. I think you are really discounting the loyality and following of your straight girl fans. We may not be as fabulous as the gays, but we GET YOU and buy tickets, too. The straight guys are really your wild card so if you could please say "the gays AND the straight girls" I think you'd be more accurate. You've got more people in your corner than you think. Thanks, Adrienne

Listen up Kathy, you wanna talk D-list? I'm coming to you live from WORCESTER, MA. I go to BY FAR the SMALLEST college EVER, but we are SUCH a good time. I think that you, Tom, Tiff and Jessica (of course!) should plan a lil trip to visit us at Worcester State College. I guarantee you will have never performed for a smaller crowd in your life. Our venue seats MAX 200 people. However, the kicker here (bear with me) is that our entire budget for comedians (per year) is $13,000 (this is for seven comedians per year).
Anyways, Kath, nothing would make my senior year better than to see you perform at good ole WSC.
Let me know.

Only one request: watch it with the Catholic stuff, okay? I mean, I hate asking you to be politically correct, and I LOVE the impressions you do of your mom, but there's a lot of misconceptions out there, and maybe things aren't the same nowadays than they were when you were younger. I don't feel any Catholic "guilt", for example. Catholics love to laugh even when getting made fun of, but some of the stuff isn't really ringing true.
Love ya!! I really hope you get nominated for another Emmy. Oooh, and I also thought it was so funny that you pretended to fall out of the limo in London. Wow. :)
