Comedian Kathy Griffin confirmed recent reports via her Twitter page on Saturday that the Bravo Network has not renewed her weekly prime time talk show, KATHY, for a third season. "Sad but tru. Appreciate your kind words, PH," she posted in response to a tweet from Perez Hilton about the show's cancellation.

The two-time Emmy award winner hosted her show every Thursday, and was joined by a throng of celebrities to discuss everything pop culture from the latest celebrity scandals to Kathy's new favorite television obsession to her most recent celebrity run in.

She was often joined by her mother, Maggie, and assistant, Tiffany, as well as a panel of friends, co-workers and 'normal people' dishing on the weeks headlines.

Griffin has had an impressive 14 original comedy specials on Bravo since 2005 and won two Emmy's for the network's "Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D List." Her stand up specials "Kathy Griffin: Tired Hooker (December 2011), "Kathy Griffin: Straight to Hell" (November 2008) and "Kathy Griffin: She'll Cut a Bitch" (April 2009) were nominated for an Emmy in the category Outstanding Variety, Music or Comedy Special. Four of her comedy albums have been nominated for Grammy's and she received rave reviews on Broadway for her one woman show "Kathy Griffin Wants a Tony."

She is the recipient of the 'GLAAD Vanguard Award,' received the Trevor Project's 'Lifetime Achievement Award' and 'Ally for Equality Award' from the Human Rights Campaign.
