This came from a conversation I had earlier today and I just wanna get some feedback.
Who's funnier- Kathy Griffin or Sarah Silverman?
And also- Did you enjoy the show Arrested Development?

I can't vote. I love both of them. I'd say Kathy in her prime was way funnier ...but times have changed and so has style of humor and right now Sarah Silverman sort has that edge. Kathy shocked us... Sarah keeps shocking us. One might argue that you couldn't have Sarah without Kathy because Sarah's brand might not work if Kathy hadn't prepared us for it.
I mean, Lenny Bruce paved the way for the likes of George Carlin and Bob Sagett (sp?) and the like.
I find both Kathy and Sarah attractive in their respective primes although one of them is past that point. They are strong and bold woman and likely woman I would date in RL.

Sarah Silverman is way funnier and Arrested Development was the best comedy on television for a short time.

I love Arrested.
Kathy Griffin is annoying.
Sarah Silverman is hilarious and I have a huge crush on her.

She is, The Sarah Silverman show. It's weird and funny. It's like the person(s) that made Pee Wee's play house did this one. It's kind of odd like that.
By the way, Sarah hands down. Kathy Griffin is annoying as hell.
Arrested development was great.
I just watched
"The Ex" with Jason Bateman, Zack Braff, Amanda Peet, Charles Groden and a bunch of SNL cast members. It was funny. I recommend it.

Kathy Griffin I find to be a horribly unfunny stand-up comic.
Sarah Silverman is a sometimes brilliant comedian. Her schtick is so thin, and her jokes are so samey, that I can't watch long stretches of her work and appreciate it.
When my friends would describe episodes of Arrested Development to me, I would chuckle slightly and say "That's funny." When I would watch it, I would sit there not laughing.
