Keep Kathy Griffin in line by suggesting a joke
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Controversial comedian Kathy Griffin is a coming to the Fox on July 11. She notoriously joked about her 2007 Emmy award and offended many people in the process.
Let’s help her in her visit to St. Louis.
High Schools? Toasted Ravioli? What’s off limits in Arch City? Suggest a one-line joke about St. Louis for an upcoming issue of Bird’s Eye View, seen on Sunday in the Community section. We’ll print our favorites — if they don’t cross the line.



Welcome to the media circus. I'm Charles Williams, online entertainment editor and operator of this ride.
Honestly, I think Kathy Griffin is a one-line joke. She’s offensive, ignorant, and really not even funny.
Kathy’s humor is an acquired taste, for sure. Her irreverent send-ups of celebrities and politicians seldom fail to crack me up. As far as what’s off-limits, well, by pointing it out to her, she’s sure to go right there. For me, I’d love to hear her take on Missouri’s own Brad Pitt!
She should go into a turret’s like explicative of, “What high school did you go to?” But just keep doing it over and over and totally random times in the show
I totally agree with MommaBear. Saw her live in LA once, and many times on TV and Cable. She rides on the back of others and has become exactly what she makes fun of. . .a hollywood phony, a serial plastic surgery patient and a complete obnoxious, unintelligent, riduculously shallow and galactically un-funny “celebrity”. St. Louis and the Post Dispatch should quit trying to kiss her backside, maybe if we stop now she will cancel or at least never come back.
OK, here’s the infamous Tina Turner joke from last fall, as Hurricane Ike slammed into Houston: “Go Away, Ike - Tina ain’t here!”
Kathy is HILARIOUS!! I love her take on the celebrity of herself and others. The Emmy Award joke was the best award speech that I can remember. If you do believe in God, we are taught that He created us in His image. People have senses of humor, so I am betting that if there is a God, he thought that the Emmy joke was funny as well. Lighten up people!!
Q) What is the difference between the St Louis Rams and the Taliban
A) The Taliban has a running game
so, bluzfan-how’s the weather where you live? The nurses being good to you? are you taking all your meds?
If you don’t like her then don’t watch or comment. Seriously folks. I think she’s hilarious. I agree with the Brad Pitt thing. I loved the episode when she came here last season. Very funny!
I saw Kathy at here sold out show at The Fox a couple years ago and she was hillarious.
