Deal calls for Griffin to return as host of Bravo's "A-List Awards," a kudocast honoring those who've impacted beauty, food, fashion, design and pop culture. Also in 2009, Griffin will shoot two hourlong standup specs for the cabler.

In January, she'll start production on season five of "Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List." Skein has won the reality series Emmy the last two years.
