Ellen,
My son is blind.
This game is mean-spirited and hurtful to those of us that live with blindness every moment of every day of our lives.
It is not funny.
Ellen I just love being able to wake up & watch your show & laugh first thing in the morning, You get me started off to a great start of a long day. Thankyou for all the laughs. I love your show
Hey Ellen! Please not so much joking about drinking (alcohol) and being drunk! I work with alcoholics, and believe me, their lives and their relationships are ruined by their drinking habits and addiction. Use your bully pulpit to promote fun, but don't emphasize drinking as a fun thing. I don't mean that you should abstain, just don't joke about it so much. Thanks...I love everything else.

Hi Ellen, maybe you will have hardtime to undertstand my email, because i' m nnot really good in english, I have been in United Stated almost 2 years, I started watch your about almost 1 year since i live together with my boyfriend. We just moved from San Diego, CA to Seattle,WA. Now I'm almost 7 month pregnant and i'm not working, and my boyfriend has to get surgery next week on his shoulder, so now he can't work, and he can't working for a while after surgery. So right now I'm so stress about finance and everything about my pregnant, most of time in my days i'm not happy, but EVERYTIME I WATCH YOUR SHOW I FEEL RELIEF AND I CAN JUST FORGET EVERYTHING, I'm happy everytime i watch you show.
I wish i can watch your show everyday even on weekend.

Ellen, I haven't laughed so hard in a long time!!My husband and I watched musical chairs we hurrahed.WHAT A HOOT!!! Happy Birthday and God Bless
Ellen, Thank you for daily bringing joy into my life and many many others. I am 53, a happy bartender and the very proud mother of a soldier that spent 15 months in Baghdad.Even though he has been back on U.S.soil for a year now the worries of a mother continue. With all he went through,the concern of PTSD are a constant concern because he lost 4 very close friends.This subject I have not heard on your show and this is such a huuge concern of ALL military families, especially mom's, God bless you and yours, our military and most of all our new president!!!! Free, white and WAY over 21, Obama IS the one! Thanks for helping me smile while my son was gone and now with him home. Thanks for the laughter!

Oh my Gosh Ellen I have always loved your show and been a big fan but that blindfolded musical chairs was the BEST.
My husband Dennis and I were rolling off the sofa laughing at "Home Girl" Karen Funis, yes we have known Karen (and Mike) for years and LOVE that you have invited her back!
Thanks for all the fun, funny and heart warming things you entertain us with.

Ellen I have a great idea. Why don't you let me come and we in the contest with Karen. I need a break. I've ran a Day care for 41 years 12 hours a day 5 days a week. So how about it?
Ellen thanks for the laughter. You truly are one amazing person. You make me forget the sadness in my life. Keep doing what you do. My 7 year old who doesnt speak and is developmentally delayed, but she knows how to start your show on the DVR. Its amazing to watch her, watch you. It gives me hope that she is going to be okay.
