Love, us.

By the way — did you see Kathy Griffin with Anderson Cooper on CNN last night?  That was some quality material — from when she asked Anderson which member of the administration he’d most like to waterboard to outright asking for his home address.

However, there was one moment that made my jaw drop. Although, actually, it really shouldn’t at this point.  I was distracted and drunk at the time, but at one point Kathy said something about the fact that she’s not watching her figure. To which Anderson said (just to fuck with us — make no mistake), “Don’t worry, I’m not watching your figure either.”

Oh, Andy.  Join the community!  Dive on in, the water’s fine!

Take a look at the final moments of Anderson and Kathy’s telecast here.

Five things to be happy about in respect to this year’s Emmy nominations.

1. Everybody Loves Raymond isn’t on television anymore, so it can’t win anything. Hooray!
2. Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List got nominated.
3. Lots of fun surprises in the supporting categories including Jenna Fisher, Michael Emerson (Ben from Lost), Rainn Wilson and Masi Oka.
4. Battlestar did get some directing and writing nominations.
5. Guest star nominations for Laurie Metcalf and Sir Ian McKellan.

Five things to not be happy about in respect to this year’s Emmy nominations.

1. There’s at least one entry in pretty much every category that is going to fill me with dread. That is, there are four nominees I wouldn’t mind winning and then one stinker. I’m looking at you, Boston Legal.
2. Two and a Half Men continues to fill up the comedy categories.
3. I swear to God that Patricia Arquette has sold her soul to the devil for all these Emmy nominations.
4. No Veronica Mars.
5. No Dexter.

If you’ve never met me, I hope your mental image involves a pompadour.

• I guess Mark Burnett will never give up. He’s working on some sort of martial arts reality show.
• A spoiler chat with E-Kristin including a bit about Lost and Harold Perrineau.
• Joey Fatone will host a copycat version of the Wayne Brady lyric-remembering contest.
• Rock and roll on TV this week includes Morrissey (hey! pompadours!) and Explosions in the Sky.
• Messy Peregrym from Heroes (shapeshifter Candice) will be the new lead on the CW’s Reaper.

• Finally, Kathy Griffin does what we all want to do: profess our love for Anderson Cooper.

So, yeah. How’s it going?

Good, good.

Me? Not much, you know. Steady as she goes. Did you hear we got fifth place in the Weblog awards? You did get my e-mail, right?

Oh. Sorry for bringing it up again. But thanks for voting.

Yeah, there hasn’t been much on TV lately. Reruns, you know. Even Top Chef was a rerun last night!

But everything’s coming back in January. In the meantime, though, you can watch stuff on YouTube if you get bored. I just found out that you can watch Kathy Griffin’s old comedy special, Hot Cup of Talk over there.

Yeah, it’s her. She just has a completely different face.

Kathy Griffin’s reality show, My Life on the D-List, has been renewed for a third season.

Apparently, the show will feature more goofy one-liners from her drunk-ass parents, but will not mention her messy divorce.
