Kathy Griffin's Insightful and Hilarious Take on the Royal Wedding will feature her humorous look at Prince William and Kate Middleton's nuptials. It will air Friday, April 29 — the day of the ceremony — at 8/7c."I'm thrilled at the opportunity to take TV Guide Network to a level of high class ... or down to the gutter; I haven't decided which," Griffin said. "Either way, as a longtime royal watcher — and let's be honest, I'm referring to Prince Harry's adorable arse — I'm eminently qualified to cover the wedding of the year, and not just because I once saw Helen Mirren at In-N-Out Burger. If I can survive having Brooke Shields as my maid of honor (go ahead and Google that one, I'll wait) then I'm fully prepared for that cozy little chapel of love called Westminster Abbey. And by Westminster Abbey I mean a TV studio full of judgment."
