12:00 Welcome to 2016! Thanks, Anderson and Kathy. www.womensvoicesforchange.org sends you wishes for a safe, healthy, and productive year. We look forward to spending next December 31st with you.
11:58 The crowd listening to Jessie J sing Imagine is very peaceful. Amazing to see so many people so well behaved.
11:33 So happy to be watching this silly show and spending time alone with The Husband! Never bored. CNN journalist, Randy, in Memphis has been kicked out of a bar in Memphis…hard to do. The crowd is waiting for an 80 pound Gibson guitar to drop as the New Year begins. We learn that Anderson used to work as a model for Ralph Lauren…and Kathy is surprised that he had not mentioned this earlier in the broadcast. The New Orleans CNN team seem to have been over served at this point.
11:15 Death Cage match between Sharon Osborne and Sharon Stone is the current topic. Anderson wonders if Kathy goes out aevery night in order to meet all the celebrities she knows…Kathy replies, ” I know a moment”.
11:05 Kathy makes sure that viewers know that Anderson usually mentions that he went to Yale in the first fifteen minutes of the show…tick tock. She quizzes him about the cost of a postage stamp and a dozen eggs…He doesn’t know and she knows that he doesn’t.( As a matter of fact, I don’t know how much a dozen eggs cost). The best comedy team ever. Kathy points out many times that she has been doing the work for this show all year long and it is apparent.
10:45 Love Kathy’s self promotion. She should be the mentor for all women who really really want to grab the brass ring. She spends the year touring with solo performances. Amazing stamina. Go See Kathy Griffin Live!!! She says that Ryan Seacrest has a new fragrance called, Demon. The CNN anchor, Randy Kay, is still drinking through the Memphis pub crawl..now consuming a “Skittle” and “Call a Cab” 190 grain rum and other things…Kathy urges women in the audience to tune in to new Life Time show about women who kill their husbands….
10:24 Kathy surprises Anderson with video where he was dancing at Madonna concert. Poor Anderson… dancing not his talent.
The Husband and I are spending New Year’s Eve watching Anderson Griffin and Kathy Griffin welcome 2016. We are in bed, dressed for bed and not for other people. There is a bottle of rose’ champagne chilled and waiting for the count down.
It is 8 pm. The pre-show is on now. Kathy and Anderson are in a hotel room and clearly Anderson is going to have a very tough time managing this woman. So far she has defamed Oprah and Gail King, Caitlyn Jenner and her arch enemy Ryan Seacrest. Going to be quite a night!
Ovarian cancer is not common, but it can be lethal. If you think that you may be at elevated risk to develop ovarian cancer, bring these factors to the attention of your personal physician.
You’ll leave a screening of "Plastic Planet" with a new understanding of the dilemma we face: plastic, the very substance that over the 20th century, significantly changed how we live, has taken us over.

Very fun commentary Pat! I am picturing you in your pjs (flannel? Frilly?) with the husb and rose’. Happy new year to you both!!!
Lots of sexual innuendo…triple XXX games. Olympian announces that he hopes to get New Year’s kiss from his boyfriend and Kathy proclaims that she is becoming pansexual…Olympian said, “coming…cool”. Kids had better be in bed by now!
Poppy is handing out slices of pizza in exchange for names for her unborn baby. Kathy is still concerned that the baby is “crowning”.
Kathy is afraid of girl squads and thinks that Taylor Swift wants to kill her. Several tweets have arrived according to Kathy from female singers who want to kill her…
Kathy just completed a monologue about “hall pass”. Never knew what this was. The Husband told me my hall pass is “death”. Nice guy.
Kathy’s motto is “what you see is more than what you get”. Love this.
Randy Kaye CNN correspondent in Memphis still bar hopping. More Southern women with those familiar accents. There is a drink created called the Diver that she has now. Now she has added alcohol to the specially created barbecue sauce. More references to Randy and pot smoking in Colorado.
Video of Kathy Griffin totally naked in an ice bucket challenge. Poor Anderson.
Poppy Harlow is pregnant and working. Kathy doesn’t believe that Poppy is her real name. Then Kathy wants to know if Poppy is in labor. As an obstetrician, I think it is terrific that Poppy is working.
Rio de Janeiro count down continues as people head to the water to place flowers in the water. Happy New Year Rio! Lots of PDA and fireworks there!
Hershey Pa celebrating New Year’s Eve by raising a 300 pound steel sculpture of a Hershey’s Kiss. Kathy will be performing at the arts center in Hershey in February. She is thrilled at the plug for the performance. Kathy still wearing only underwear.
Times Square Marriott Marquis getting much attention from this show.
Lots of security around Times Square with thousands of people and warm weather. Ryan Seacrest continues to be an ongoing theme. OMG! Kathy just wearing bra and panties with tights and boots! Anderson mortified. Kathy Griffin is one hot over fifty woman!!!
Rio de Janeiro just getting ready to begin their countdown. We learned that the color of the underwear worn on New Year’s Eve in Brazil expresses the wishes of the wearer: red for passion, white for peace, and yellow for money. A brief discussion of Kathy’s underwear revealed that hers were lacy if she were wearing any.
