I like her standup, but have absolutely no interest in watching a camera follow her around. Or anyone else, for that matter.

She was on LOVELINE last night(Sunday) filling in for Adam. She was tons of fun and frankly Dr. Drew and Kathy sounded great together.

I would say if Adam leaves LOVELINE she'd make a hell of a replacement to co-host with Dr. Drew. Plus it would be nice to have a regular female to give advice.

I feel the same way. I dont want to see her homelife and her going to parties and trying to fit in. I want to see her standup.

Someone said she was going to be guesting on Days of Our Lives soon.

If you just hate reality shows, I guess you've got a point. But it kind of gives you insight on where she gets her material, and since she focuses on her "D-list" status in her act lots of the focus is on that, how she manages her career not being an A-lister. It's pretty cool because some of her interviewed bits and commentary is hilarious.

She was on Jimmy Kimmel's show last night and said that her DVD ranking on Amazon went from like 16,000th to 16th after this show aired. Thanks for mentioning the Loveline appearance Giantrobo, downloading it now off usenet.

Good points. Plus, the simple fact that she knows she's not an A-lister and embraces this fact while making it work for her is cool.

Man I wish you could see it Robo!
Spoiler:
She did this one interview portion where she's discussing her problems with weight and dieting (her husband is currently on a diet) and how much she loves breads and fried foods and she goes "As a matter of fact I can hardly focus on what you're saying right now because all I'm thinking about is how I want to break open that tin of Pillsbury cinnamon rolls in the freezer...see Nicole Kidman doesn't have to go through this!"
Of course, her take was more extensive and the delivery in her hilarious style.

I'm sure you'll get to catch it when it comes on dvd.

Episode tonight was really funny. Definitely a "D-List" moment when she was outside the Staples Center asking random people where the red carpet was.
