    Like everything else Chelsea has done since leaving E-it's terrible! I used to like her but now she just seems mad and it's hard to be funny when you're angry all the time. Her story of being a drug taking, future alcoholic slut is just not funny, between her and Amy Schumer I've had enough of this type of comedy.

    Its pretty simple. If you love Chelsea Handler you will love this show. IF you do not like her, then you will not like this show. I wish they would have kept the original title, but didn't. This show is Raunchy, Blunt, Witty, Sarcastic and a little Taboo. I love the chemistry of the characters. I having worked the bar scene have had co-workers similar to them, and enjoy the subject matter that comes up because of its real world similarity. i didn't think that Laura Prepon could pull off the sarcasm but as the episodes progress, she gets more and more comfortable in her alternate skin. i hope you enjoy this show as much as my partner and i do.

    I was one of those people in the beginning that got confused with Prepon playing Chelsea then Chelsea Handler playing Sloane. Like another reviewer brought up, it was like Chelsea Handler was talking to herself. Prepon isn't much younger than Handler either, only five years' difference, so I am not sure why there had to be an actress to play Handler that wasn't her. Maybe they should have gotten a 20 year old actress and that would have worked better. But, overall, it's confusing.I do like the character of Dee Dee, played by Lauren Lapkus. She is the best part of the show. Some of the other minor characters like Olivia, played by Ali Wong, are funnier than the main ones. That would be the reason to watch for me, if I could find out how to watch it. NBC used to have the shows on their website to view, but now there are only clips and I've missed at least 2 or 3 shows. So I don't watch it now, because it's on Wednesday and I tend to watch Modern Family and other ABC comedies on that night. I would have kept watching, but I am sort of blocked from watching it right now and it is sad, because I do think this show needs viewership.

    I just watched this dreck with my wife. I didn't laugh once. Not because I'm male, but because, like Chelsea Handler herself, this show is not funny. My wife didn't laugh either. We aren't prudes, but even the jokes were too obvious and crude for us. By contrast, *2 Broke Girls*, which is in the same genre and style, is witty and clever. The rest of the cast is pedestrian at best, with the sexual tension having jumped the shark in the first episode. Speaking of that, the clichéd sarcastic good-looking lead is very in-your-face. I feel most badly for Laura Prepon. We both really do like her. This is my choice for the first show to get canceled.
