“No Vegas, no giant club dates, Kathy Griffin’s taken all those,” Joan Rivers kvetched in her documentary, A Piece of Work.

Though the show will move from weekly programming to making special appearances for fashionable times of year like awards season, we’re confident that Griffin will do a terrific job filling Rivers’ tasteful shoes.
