Is this show scripted or completely natural?


I've only seen one episode and wasn't sure.

It's either loosely scripted like Curb Your Enthusiasm with actors playing versions of themselves, or it's a real look into her life and everything is natural and not acted.

Which is it? Thanks!

It's a 'reality show.' Essentially, it's not scripted but situations are set up and everyone's aware they're being filmed so they're trying to be entertaining.

Its scripted in that she sets up these things partly because she cares and partly because shes making a show;

And some are acting...apparently she and one of her assistants are secretly dating and have been for a couple years

Sadly, these past few seasons have been scripted to the max. They try to set up situations that are very typical comedy routines.

I miss the earlier seasons when things seemed a more random and hilarious. Not digging Kathy with all these guest stars.

Kathy. I believe on Howard Stern. was saying how it is hard to do the show now because a christmas for her now is going to Cher's house.
