Everything I've seen her in, she tries way too hard to be funny and just fails miserably. The only reason she's famous is because she's good looking. (though that can be said for many)
Here's my signature. -

Ya pretty girls get by on effort alone. As long as they show up, look pretty and are at least 60% coherent they can sustain a career in comedy without having to be funny i.e. Aisha, Sarah Silverman, Whitney Cummings. The ugly chicks like Roseanne or Lisa Lampanelli actually have to be somewhat funny.

I agree 100%. She has never made me laugh once-not even smirk- and I have a good sense of humor and , as you said, she tries way too hard to be funny and seems to fish for compliments regarding her "humor". And , as we all know, people who try hard to be funny and are not naturals ultimately are not funny.
I first remember seeing her back when she replaced Hal Sparks( who was even more unfunny) on Talk Soup and she just bombed which ultimately led to the show's downfall and being pulled. John Henson was hilarious and just a natural and when he left The Soup I knew the show was gonna bomb.
She is quite an attractive woman (which is probably why most people think she is funny-many in our society equate attractiveness with funniness) and probably a nice person, but I have no idea why she gets cast as a "comedian" or thrown into these comedies as she is truly soooooo not funny-not even one iota of funny.
In any event, I wish her the best in her career in television and I am not trying to diss her, but that is just my opinion. But for those who think she's funny all the more power to you.
