The Chelsea Handler Show
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Chelsea Handler Show was a show on the E! television network, in which Chelsea Handler, created skits, mocked the entertainment industry, spoofed celebrities, television, the elderly, and herself. The show aired Friday nights at 10:30 EST.
The new mini-series was green lighted by E! early in 2006. The show premiered on April 21, 2006. The cable channel ordered eight episodes of the half-hour project that features Chelsea Handler, Tonight Show With Jay Leno correspondent and star of Oxygen's Girls Behaving Badly, in taped spoofs, film shorts and field remote pieces, all framed by stand-up segments of her performing before a studio audience. There is currently a petition to release this show on DVD, which can be found at the bottom of the page.
