I thought Whitney Cummings was excellent, but...


without a live studio and live laughter, stand up monologues just seem so vacant. I felt bad for her.

She was hilarious but I bet many people probably couldn't get into it because of how awkward it felt to watch it.

Anyways, best of luck to her over these next couple of days. She's hilarious, she should do just fine.

without a live studio and live laughter,

I missed the first few minutes of her first show so I don't know if this is a sort of homage to the original LLS with Tom Snyder. Not having a live studio audience requires a lot of skill and I think Whitney pulled it off.

Thursday night was hilarious when she actually used the laugh box/button during her opening chat with Bridget.

ah, good to hear! I haven't watched Thursday's episode yet. I'll give it a gander when I get home.

Whitney's like a virus. I start off hating her and then she really wins me over, and it resets every time. Anyhow, I loved her stint. Her and that sidekick were pretty funny. It's a shame they didn't get an audience. I would definitely watch her show if she had one.

She's easily the best guest host so far, she was great. I wish she was the one taking over the show.

She was good, but why did they film the shows last week that way?? Without the usual LLS set, couches, audience, etc... It kind of took away the 'fun' and added more a serious 'daytime talk show" sort of tone to it.

Sean Hayes kicked the show up a notch though last night. Both guests were quite funny and I liked him more than I thought I would.

I don't know... did you watch Adam Palley's guest stint last week? It was the most horrid yet hysterical job at the position. It was like watching children jump out of the twin towers over and over for an hour but with funny shirts on.

I'm sure they're not using the set cause it's being refurbished for the new show. I personally loved Drew Carey's stint. I'd love to see him host his own show.

Are all you posters who adore her women, because it's obvious she hates men?

You're an idiot.

What a well thought-out and erudite response.

Thank you very much, my good sir. You don't need a long rebuttal when someone says something stupid, a short and direct response will do.
