I am still mystified as to why we’re supposed to hate her for doing what we all want...like, y’all don’t want that cheeto’s head on a damn pike? I fuckin’ do.

Andy is a mean, misogynistic person and anyone who is friends with him-Kelly Ripa, AC, SJP-I suspect is also a mean person.

Andy Cohen contributes nothing to anything.

I’ve always liked her. And her bit about Martha Stewart and Barbara Walters is still one of my favorite things ever.

I didn’t know who Kathy Griffin was before this whole kerfuffle, and now I’m a fan.

I guess you haven’t gotten the Jezzie memo. We’re not supposed to like Kathy Griffin anymore.

Agreed. I’m also way pissed at Anderson Cooper about the way he constantly sucked up to Donald Trump during the campaign — it was like a horror movie. And the way he’s gone along with throwing Kathy Griffin under the bus is, well, I would have said, beneath him, but, after 2016, I’m no longer certain anything is…

So pissed that Cohen is doing CNNNYE. He’s such a bitch, and not in a fun Kathy Griffin way.

I don’t remember this much ire when President Obama was hanged in effigy nearly every week. These folks really hate them some Kathy. That is a strange hill to die on considering the terrible male comedians out there.

Kathy Griffin can do no wrong, in my book. She’s funny and observant as hell, and has worked her ass off forever.

Really, you’re still mad about that whole Trump thing?

No it’s not. PR flacks write 99 percent of the “statements” you read. I believe it is still an accurate representation of her sentiments and I support her completely.

Apropos of nothing apart from Gene Tierney being in the top five most striking actresses of all time, her and Vincent (and Cornel Wilde) in the previous year’s Leave Her To Heaven, where she was a femme fatale.

Judy Davis played older Judy Garland in Me and My Shadows (based on Lorna Luft’s memoir). She was sensational and got the Emmy Award for it. (Both the TV miniseries and especially the book are as close to definitive as it gets).

Didn’t Judy Davis do a Garland film taking place around that same time period?

#5 was my first thought. I do not particularly like Anne, but it’ll be hard for Renee to get the big doe-eyed judy Garland look that Anne could pull off while half asleep.

1. Wizard of Oz was 1939, so 30 years earlier (not twenty).

Renee will be great for the acting potion and just terrible for the singing..and it isn’t that she doesn’t sing well. But it’s JUDY. It’s like casting Florence Foster Jenkins to play Maria Callas. ( sorry Renee, you really do sing well, but.... its Judy.)

I hope it has a different tone than Feud and doesn’t try to milk Leigh’s life for campy drama and salacious Hollywood gossip. She struggled with serious mental illness and I want to see that dealt with compassion and nuance.

No, but I think it was an open secret that he was cheating on his last wife with her.
