EMMY(R) AWARD WINNER KATHY GRIFFIN TAKES ON TELEVISION'S BIGGEST NIGHT FOR TV GUIDE NETWORK

"Kathy Griffin's Emmys Aftermath" Premieres on Monday, September 19 at 8:00 PM ET/PT

LOS ANGELES (Monday, August 29, 2011) - Two-time Emmy(R) Award-winning comedienne Kathy Griffin returns to TV Guide Network with a special one-hour bash, "Kathy Griffin's Emmys Aftermath," which will premiere on Monday, September 19 at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT. Griffin, who is Emmy-nominated this year, gathers her hand-selected group of TV smart alecks to talk winners, losers, red carpet faux pas and all the off-camera happenings at the after parties from the 2011 Primetime Emmy Awards.

Griffin said, "Shhh...don't tell anyone from TV Guide Network, but I swear I am going to say whatever I want the day after the Emmys. I will have gone to all the parties and been kicked out of at least two. My feet are going to hurt and I will have either won or lost another Emmy. If I were you, I would tune-in because I will be naming names...and remember, Emmys are more than people."

Kathy Griffin recently hosted "Kathy Griffin's Insightful and Hilarious Take on the Royal Wedding" on TV Guide Network, which was one of the network's most buzzed about specials of 2011.
