The ratings never lie.

No matter how high she climbs, Kathy Griffin keeps getting knocked right back down to the bottom of the D-list!

The sixth season finale of My Life On The D-List on Bravo only drew 781,000 viewers to the channel, while 945,000 viewers tuned in to the 5th season finale of the show.

Uh oh!

Could this mean the end of the D-List for good????

Are U still watching the show?

    7. 7

      I'm still watching. Although I watch the episodes on YouTube. I love Kathy!



    8. 8

      Her show wasn't as good this year as it has been in the past….a bit too raunchy and with guests like Paris Hilton, well there go your ratings!!!



    9. 9

      mmm….WHATTT????



    10. 10

      Hey perez? Do you have more pictures of celebrity children? I would like some more please :)



    11. 11

      Like all reality shows it has become to easy for the people watching, to see though the act



    12. 12

      the show wasn't that funny this season. it was way too staged…and was just about her meeting and gushing over has-been celebs. the show was good when it was just about her everyday life.



    13. 13

      i always watch it on demand not when it actually airs.. I LOVE KATHY GRIFFIN!



    14. 14

      The finale was awesome. I mean getting a star on the palm springs walk of fame is kind of lame and totally d-list… not to mention guest stars like suzanne sommers, barry manilow and carol channing aren't that interesting, but it was still a great episode and i'm def watching next season. i smell emmy #3



    15. 15

      No, she's too vile. She can be funny but she cusses to much.



    16. 16

      Nope never gave it a thought.



    17. 17

      i friken love her show!!!
      i hope she gets another emmy
      he rshow was fabulous
      and its kinda weird that she had less viewers this season than last, when this season was FULL with STARS lol

      i love her shes soooooooooooo funny and her shows is so real

      bring kathy back lol



    18. 18

      I adore Kathy and watch or DVR every week.



    19. 19

      damm no !!! i can bearly stand her face in a picture, i wouldnt be able to watch it on tv with sound !



    20. 20

      i really liked her show when it first came on, now it has so jumped the shark. all these celebrities she sucks up to is BORING!



    21. 21

      What's below d-list?



    22. 22

      Re: Dirty old man – J…you dick… put westerfield back up



    23. 23

      I LOVE Kathy Griffin, and never missed an episode of earlier seasons, but I forget to watch this season because I never turn in to Bravo any more and see promos for her show.

      The reason for this? All Bravo is showing these days is GARBAGE like 'Real Housewives' and 'Miami Social' -I never tune in to that crap… so I miss my beloved Kathy.

      Blame BRAVO, not Kathy!



    24. 24

      yep, and i love it!



    25. 25

      This guy rocks!



    26. 26

      Not watching as much as it's all scenes are set up now. Loved the show when it was about her daily life and struggles. Wish she'd go back to the original format! Still love her.



    27. 27

      I have this show on TiVo season pass so she's getting a Nielsen point from me!



    28. 28

      Her ratings dropped after it was announced you were going to be on the show.



    29. 29

      She used to make fun of stars, and had her own set of friends. now all she does is hang out with celebs, and kiss their asses. It isn't the same show.



    30. 30

      i watch the re runs in the day… i love her… shes so funny

    31. buck says – reply to this


      31

      she is just another whacko liberal from the un-christian far left that can easily be replaced.



    32. 32

      The first couple seasons of the show I was in love and watched faithfully. It was funny, fresh, on point. Now it just isn't the same. SHE is not the same.



    33. 33

      I am not watching her anymore she is really getting on my nerves.



    34. 34

      I was until she started to come off as pathetic, not edgy. That whole show in Miami, her bit about trying to buy a house with an insulting low ball bid was beyond trying to be funny. She's turned into a circus act bordering on train wreck. She is losing her chops, big time.
      I also don't like that she emabarrasses her mother to get laughs. NOT COOL AT ALL! She, Joan Rivers and Melissa Rivers can be put in the category of uncouth, whiney, and paranoid. And it's just so hard to make myself tune into that week after week. I feel terrible after watching an episode now. Before it was dishing on A list celebs. Now it's just really pathetic attempts to garner attention. REALLY, REALLY, pathetic attempts. Even her friends look mortified. The bit with Suzanne Somers was debasing for the both of them. I'm done. Grow up Kathy.



    35. 35

      Re: Canadiana717 – agreed…….. She and the Millionare Matchmaker lady have the same crazy eyes and blue eyeshadow. Strange, but maybe the have the same person do their botox.



    36. 36

      yesssss



    37. 37

      She's Hilarious!
      Hope Theres a new season



    38. 38

      When KG and the Perezsite were both scheduled to be on Larry King, who got bumped? I guess that puts you on the DD list - same size as your flabby manboobs.



    39. 39

      It's too staged. The earlier seasons seemed very real - now, everything seems fake. Not fun to watch.



    40. 40

      Gosh. Hate it for her. No, really.

      We should BE so lucky to be rid of that bitch, but I doubt it'll happen…



    41. 41

      IM TIRED OF THIS DISGUSTING RED ATTETNION WHORE.



    42. 42

      I love that show!



    43. 43

      I don't have Bravo so i have to watch the show on youtube.com. But I am defiintely still watching!!! This woman is hilarious!!



    44. 44

      I thought this season was great, but a lot of it does seem to staged now. Before it was about her life, and now it's intentional guests on each show to what—boost ratings? I watch the show religiously, but I DVR it because I am never home when it airs, and the ratings don't count that. hell, i dont have a nielson box, so even if i did watch live, they wouldn't know!



    45. 45

      I watched this season, but didn't really care for the format…it seemed more like "Kathy & Friends" than how its been in past seasons. She is still funny, but I don't know…it just sorta seemed like she was relying too much on Mom and visiting her questionable "A List" celebrity friends….I actually think her day to day life was much more funny than hanging out with Paris Hilton…



    46. 46

      I still watch it and love me some KATHY



    47. 47

      I love Kathy.I am a strt police officer in toronto , handsome , with a high gay ceiling , and wont embezzel her money….. if the shows goes , she has the world at her feet, including me



    48. 48

      haha iv never heard of that show :L :]



    49. 49

      she tries way 2 hard to be funny



    50. 50

      I dont think she's on the d-list…shes on the a c+-list. People know her, they think she's funny. She has a running show and celeb friends. I really dont think she's d-list anymore…you on the other hand Perez, arent even on the list.



    51. 51

      this season was WAY too staged. there was nothing unplanned about it and that was what made the show funny before, the spontaneous moments.



    52. 52

      .. and blue eye shadow is disguuusting!



    53. 53

      Pereuza, tv is trash! Stop advicing people to watch tv!!!!



    54. 54

      I LOVE this show and am just so amazed at those ratings. And Gossip Girl gets more?? That says something about the Tv audience that isn't too savory. Biggest issue I have had with teh D-List is they only do something like 7 episodes a year. Man, that's hardly worth it.
      This may be more of a BRAVO issue than a Kathy issue…isn't BRAVO losing a lot of its viewers (ie Project Runway) and shows?? Move D-List to another channel and 'watch what happens.'



    55. 55

      SHE IS THE BEST COMMEDIAN!

      KATHY GRIFFIN = LOVE

      CANT WAIT FOR HER BOOK!!!!!!



    56. 56

      I love Kathy and watched every episode! It was better last season, but still worth watching.



    57. 57

      Love her! And yes, still watch her. That's why I can say I am not as fond of this season's theme.
      =
      Going to see her live in San Francisco too.



    58. 58

      Kathy Griffin is funny but not in huge doses. I can take a few minutes of her when she's on something like Larry King and then I have to watch something else. I can't imagine watching an entire show of hers.



    59. 59

      I LOVE KATHY GRIFFIN!

      BUT THERE WAS 2 MUCH CELEBS, IT SHOULD OF JUST BEEN ABOUT KATHY'!

      ITS 2 STAGED, THEY DONT NEED TO MAKE HER MEET ALL THESE CELEBS THEY SHOULD JUST FOLLOW HER AROUND HER SCHEDULE..YA KNOW,

    60. minka says – reply to this


      60

      She always seems to be trying too hard to be edgy and make people laugh. Kind of grating.



    61. 61

      LOVE LOVE LOVE Kathy Griffin (Norma Gay)! However, her show was a bit up and down entertainment wise this season. The Gloria Estefan / Rosie O'Donnell episode was especially disappointing. Still a huge fan, though!



    62. 62

      She sucks!



    63. 63

      I enjoyed the Kathy Griffin that made fun of celebrities, and wasn't a TOOL of celebwhores like Paris Hilton. Kathy miscalculated that hanging with Paris was going to endear her to ANYONE. The general public HATES Paris Hilton, and anyone seen cozying up to her gets dirty with that hate……sorry Kathy, BIG miscalculation.



    64. 64

      HHAHAHAHA
      the bitch isnt even funny anywayz……

    65. @v@ says – reply to this


      65

      Baah, people just move on after a while. She's had a lot of exposure lately, so if I were her, I'd eventually take that higher profile and go on the road with a great routine, pack some houses for a bit and let media miss me while I work on some kicking new material and re-invent myself. Kathy's comedic observations are unique. No one sees the world quite like Ms. Griffin. She and Roseanne should do a double bill and play bigger rooms.



    66. 66

      I have watched this show from day 1…but this season sucks, I have only watched one show and bailed



    67. 67

      She's a very funny person, obviously. But immediately this season we could tell that the show was going to be highly-manufactured with the artifice of contrived "encounters".

      The Paris Hilton episode was exceptionally weak. It wasn't even funny. It wasn't clever.

      The only segment this season of any genuine "interest" was the peek into Suzanne Somers' house and life. Maybe because it seemed most on-track with what a reality show ought to be doing.

      The other episodes this season (unlike other seasons) seemed more like elaborate skits. Do a sketch comedy show and not a reality show if that's what they want to do.

      The whole Better Midler, Gloria Estefan, etc stuff would have been fine if it were …The Mike Douglas Show.



    68. 68

      never watched her show but damn she is one ugly chick



    69. 69

      Who is Kathy Griffin?



    70. 70

      She's the bomb!!



    71. 71

      i LOVE Kathy Griffin her show is hysterical and is the best show on that crappy bravo station



    72. 72

      Re: PalmSprings – I love your picture



    73. 73

      still watching it, still loving it!



    74. 74

      That would be a big fat NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. She's as stupid as you are and so unfunny.



    75. 75

      It's the annoying voice!



    76. 76

      i LOVE that show!! i watched!



    77. 77

      I watch all the time, and I am a 51 year old married white woman. I think she's hella funny. And I have to say, I was really proud of her on the show when she did the whole Norma Gay think, it was really first class of her to take those kids to Sacramento for that rally on Prop 8. She seemed to do it more for good reasons, not just for the show, or the ratings. It really brought a tear to my eye when she had them watch the Documentary on Matthew Shepherd. Way to go Kathy



    78. 78

      I love Kathy Griffin!

      I watched the last episode!!

      Kathy Griffin Rocks!!



    79. 79

      I WATCH, LOVE AND SUPPORT THE SHOW.



    80. 80

      No do watch this show. Why would I waste my time on this fame whore.



    81. 81

      I still am! But yeah.. on youtube.. sorry the internet is just better.. But I'm still a HUGE fan of the show and Kathy! =D



    82. 82

      OMG as one of Kathy's many Gays I have to say LOVE her!! Always watch the show, I liked how this season she had on lots of different celebs like Bette, Rosie, and Paris… Kathy is soooo funny, Bravo would be nothing without her…



    83. 83

      Oh, hell yes I am watching. Funniest show on TV. Moreover, I thought this was her best season ever. Great guests. Funny. Even touching. I want more, more, MORE of KGriff on BRAVO!



    84. 84

      I love Kathy, and I've always loved her show, but this past season REALLY sucked. I was very bored with it. It was so staged this year!

    85. Jason says – reply to this


      85

      Her show is by far my favorite on TV!!! She's definitely still got it!



    86. 86

      i love that show



    87. 87

      this season was a little too much, but I still adore Kathy!

      "The sixth season finale of My Life On The D-List on Bravo only drew 781,000 viewers to the channel, while 945,000 viewers tuned in to the 5th season finale of the show." Uhm Perez, there ISN'T a SIXTH season of My Life On The D-List.

    89. Low says – reply to this


      89

      Fisrt year I'm not watching… it's not the same this year. It's a different format almost.. not as good.



    90. 90

      Season 6 is already over? I thought Season 5 just finished a couple weeks ago? With the Palm Springs Star? … Idk, I don't have Bravo so I have to wait until the episodes are posted on youtube… lame.



    91. 91

      Perhaps more of us would tune in if the network actually broadcasts the show when they say they will! I cannot tell you how many times I have attempted to watch Kathy Griffin "D List" and instead switched the channel to Bravo, only to be watching "New York Prep", or whatever that piece of shit show is called. I would watch Kathy all the time, if the network actually broadcast it when they are supposed to! Someone in programming is a fucking idiot over at Bravo!



    92. 92

      Never started watching, why would I now? No loss.



    93. 93

      She is the most annoying person I have ever seen! I seriously cannot stand her.. you know how you have one celeb you just hate… well she is mine!!!

    94. Kdel says – reply to this


      94

      I actually love Bravo and most of their shows and I used to love Kathy and never missed her show. I no longer watch her because I wasn't about to tune in to hear her bash conservatives. If you know that almost half of the United States voted for a conservative, why would you go out of your way to alienate so many people. Liberals tend to think all conservatives are hillbillys which is so not the case. I am a city girl who enjoyed Kathy's humor until she started bashing us. I also agree that the show has become very staged.



    95. 95

      love the show, love Kathy! I'll watch anything she does. She's hilarious!



    96. 96

      shes kind of annoying…her "bit" is a little outdated, in my opinion….whatever!!!



    97. 97

      Love The Show hope they dont cancel



    98. 98

      Nooo! I looooove Kathy Griffin! Ill admit her show wansnt as funny as it usually is this season, but I hope it doesnt get cancelled!



    99. 99

      "Are U still watching the show?"
      I didn't watch it to begin with.



    100. 100

      Love her but I agree about too much staging. She's also more vocal politically which I hate, even though I agree with her issues. It always seems like an abuse of the stage we've given to a celebrity, when they use it to start lecturing to us.
