Margaret Cho coming up on Craig Ferguson tonight
she's really taken a step towards the edge the last few years

very entertaining, btw

worth a look-see

wonder if she'll rein it in, compared to her interview with Greg Fitzsimmons, during which she revealed some rather unusual, I guess you could say, personal habits

1. I like her politics, but I never thought she was funny. More power to those who do, though.

2. ironically, she's funniest to me when she becomes her mom,
Edited on Mon Jul-20-09 11:57 PM by Gabi Hayes
because of her railing against all sorts of stereotypes

she's on and off funny for me, too, standup wise. she had a half hour special on Comedy Central that was very very funny, a few years ago. it was intercut with bizarre, pseudo-biographical inserts, which made the show

when she's untethered, though, and talking about herself, I promise you'll be very entertained;

PICK UP THE PHONE
ONLY GAYS SCREEN CALLS
IF YOU DON'T PICK UP THE PHONE THEN YOU ARE GAY....
YOU ARE GAY

(margaret doing her mom routine)

it was hysterical.

9. I had to turn off her stand up special
just TMI--- too graphic for me. I realize I was not her target audience. I just don't need to hear about rectums and er, her personal habits. I don't think it's funny. (I'd have turned it off earlier if she was a guy). I was sitting with my teenage son in the room and both of us felt very awkward. I like her as an actress in comedies.

8. she has a new show on Lifetime. now I get it....
http://www.margaretcho.com/content/2009/07/12/drop-dead-diva-premieres-tonight-on-lifetime/

''Drop Dead Diva
tells the story of a shallow model-in-training who dies in a sudden accident only to find her soul resurfacing in the body of a brilliant, plus-size and recently deceased attorney.
Television newcomer and stage actress Brooke Elliott (Wicked, Taboo) stars as lawyer Jane Bingum, and Margaret plays her gal Friday, Terri.'''

too bad Cho isn't the star

10. I thought the same thing. she should have been the "star"
The girl who is, is great, but Cho deserved more than being the sidekick
