"It's the most prestigious dog show in the country. We love dogs, and we're having a blast out here"
About this Quote
Calling it "the most prestigious dog show in the country" does two jobs at once. It flatters the institution (and by extension the audience watching, the sponsors, the handlers who have spent a fortune chasing ribbons) while giving Rivers credibility as someone stationed at the cultural Super Bowl of purebreds. Then she flips the energy with "We love dogs", a disarming pivot from hierarchy to affection. It tells viewers: Yes, this is fancy, but you dont need to speak the language of bloodlines to belong here. The subtext is inclusivity as branding.
The last clause, "we're having a blast out here", is classic live-event TV: a little breathless, a little communal, and strategically contagious. Rivers isnt just reporting the atmosphere; she is manufacturing it, inviting you to feel like youre part of a cheerful crowd rather than a distant spectator of niche obsession. Coming from a media personality tied to red carpets and entertainment coverage, the line also smuggles in a wink: even prestige can be approached like a party, especially when the stars are dogs.
