Season 1 Review: The show's just not as funny as Chelsea Handler is when she's playing Chelsea Handler. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Prepon manages to give Chelsea's raunchy lines and irritating actions--including the brush-off of that opening DUI--more zing and charm than the material merits. Read full review
