Ok, I'll bite...I saw it and I really liked it...and I already know that it was stated that much of it is scripted, but I think it's scripted well cause its comes off pretty entertaining lol

I like it too but i dont know if the midget is a gimmick just for the show or is she really part of the "team".

But i like Cho, so i will continue to watch.

I watched it last night and thought it was pretty funny. I always thought Cho was a bit underrated... I liked her sitcom show back in either the late 80's or early 90's.

when is it on and what station?

I missed the debut last week and every time my stupid TV listing said it was being repeated, it actually wasn't! Grrr... But I did catch last night's show and found it to be really enjoyable. I like that she admits it's a scripted reality series...unlike all the other "reality" shows that pretend to be 100% real (I'm talking about you, "THE HILLS"

). I've seen her live shows and she is so freaking funny. I like that her parents are on the show. I think they're going to be the break-out stars!

As for Margaret's assistant...I am almost positive she was hired for the show. She's hilarious! I loved her as Lamb Chop!!!!

I love this show! But then again I love Margaret Cho. She's one of those people I absolutly would LOVE to meet. And while some of her show is scripted, I think a lot of it really does come from the heart. Like in this past episode where she was talking about not feeling pretty growing up.

There was a long article in our commuter paper about Margaret Cho yesterday. She was raped as a teenager and struggled with weight and self-image issues for years. She has tattooed most of her body - both arms above the elbows, stomach, back; she said that her tattoos remind her that she's beautiful and that no-one will ever harm her again.

I saw the "mother-daughter beauty pageant" episode and liked it. She has a lot of good jokes, and heart.

KinmokuPrincess · 08-31-2008, 03:12 PM

I really do like the show, she is funny and I think she is genuinely a nice person! I really liked how the pageant ended with everyone being a winner, but before it got too sappy, she cracked the joke about her's and her assistants'(?) tiara were the only ones with real diamonds lol

I just realize that Alec Mapa was in that episode!!! I LOVED him on Half & Half, and I hope he gets more airtime on Ugly Betty!
