Consider How Great Kathy Griffin Is

If your'e an avid Kathy Griffin fan, such as I, you've probably seen her show My Life on the D-List. This past week on the show she went to the small town of Tracy, California to record her comedy album For Your Consideration. And in true Griffin style the only reason of doing this is to try and get a Grammy to go along with her Emmy win.

So yesterday I listened to the album which was just released last week (yes, there's been a ton of awesome releases this week- Katy Perry and Coldplay), and was pretty happy with what I heard. As always, there's just the right amount of language to elevate Kathy's amusingly absurd celebrity run-ins. But I found the jokes to be just funny, not hilarious, but I think that's just because I've seen all her specials (twice) on TV and, obviously, because it's recorded you lose her goofy gestures and expressions which always add to the comedy. But overall, it's not to shabby, and I'd be willingly listen to it again.
