BURBANK, Calif. — June 14, 2007 — The laughs and humiliations never stop when it comes to comedienne Kathy Griffin and her chronicles on Bravo's "My Life on the D-List"—except in this week's upcoming episode in which Griffin deals with the death of her father, (Tuesday, June 19 at 10 p.m. ET/PT).

Griffin must balance her work commitments against her family responsibilities and her extremely strong love for her father: "It's here, that moment I've been just dreading my whole life is here," said Griffin.
