Netflix’s Chelsea won’t continue past the end of 2017, host Chelsea Handler announced Wednesday via social media.
In a lengthy Twitter post, Handler attributed the talk show’s cancellation to her desire to “devote as much time as I can to becoming a more knowledgeable and engaged citizen and to focus on projects that have significance to me. My goal is to be better informed, raise my voice, and participate in a more meaningful way.”
The comedienne adds that she will continue to produce documentaries with Netflix, and that her eponymous series will continue to stream weekly through December.
Chelsea premiered in May 2016 and was renewed for a second season 10 weeks later. Though designed in a thrice-weekly, half-hour format, Season 2 made the switch to once-weekly, hour-long episodes.
The article recites the tweet and adds a little background on the show. What was your reason for posting the article?
You know that if a show gets canceled it gets canceled, right? Doing a different project that hopefully isn't as ass does not undo that your show got canceled.
The show is not being renewed for a new season. That is literally the definition of a show getting canceled. Doing another show doesn't mean the other show wasn't canceled. I'll give you an idiot proof example. Megyn Kelly's show gets canceled but she starts being an anchor on the same network. Is her show canceled or not? You got this
No, I don’t know what you mean. Are there other shows like hers on Netflix? I don’t know that either. I pirate everything because the MSM is always lying to us and I can’t condone giving them my lunch money.
I feel its not specifically late night but current events in general that don't do well on Netflix. I wanna binge a series when I finally get around to it, not feel obligated to watch it within a specific time frame. If I wanted that I"d stick with regular TV.
Idk who you're thinking of but Chelsea Handler had a show on E! (I think) called Chelsea Lately that was basically just a talk show but she also wrote a few books about how much sex she had when she was younger. She's unmarried and has no kids. Not sure why she's famous
Oh and SmurfPrivilege posts below that she actually fucked the President of E! to get her show lol
"devote as much time as I can to becoming a more knowledgeable and engaged citizen and to focus on projects that have significance to me. My goal is to be better informed, raise my voice, and participate in a more meaningful way"
Were people this against Jon Stewart back in the day too? Because I remember him being received pretty well generally (for some odd reason). Yet Oliver, who is literally indistinguishable from Stewart, gets all this shit that Stewart never did.
the only difference in smugness is one is british and one’s from jersey
like i said, the difference for me is he’s been burnt out on jokes at this point but hasn’t just given up and switched to straight pundit/journalism pieces, which is obviously what he wants to do. he just talks about a problem and falls back on the same shitty “jokes” that got old after the second time (addressing the audience by some random name, pretending to get worked up over some stipid bullshit, painfully stretched but creative similes)
like toward the end, Jon Stewart would pretty much just point out fallacies, do the same three accents, and occasionally raise awareness of some overlooked issue, and correspondents like Samantha Bee and whatshisname also stopped being funny (idk if her show’s any good and i don’t wanna know).
but before... idk, 2012 or so, if you go back you’ll see some effort and an energy that doesn’t seem forced (the man could mug), with usually good monologues/“reports” with entertaining, sometimes Brutananadilewskiesque turns of phrase; actually creative insults; and even funny correspondent segments. and their hypocrisy supercuts were also really snappy.
PLUS, Stewart’s team had a 1-4 days to do the show and a CC budget. Oliver’s got a week minimum and an HBO budget.
lmfao that was his whole schtick. "DAE George Bush" was the original "DAE Trump." Its overuse back in the mid 2000s is why people are so sick of it now that the same tactic is being used in the mid 2010s. And I can put the blame almost solely on Stewart for its overuse.
I thought Chelsea Lately was one of the best things on TV so I watched one episode of Chelsea but it was just her complaining the whole episode about having accidentally seen a penis and how horrible it is to go through your day as a woman and might have to accidentally see one. WTF happened? Still not as funny as Amy Schumer.
chelsea handler quite literally fucked the CEO of E! to get a show. That's gumption you rarely see in today's hollywood and I haven't seen her tweet #metoo once. She's a-okay in my book.
I remember when she first became a contributor on E! when I was a little kid. Before she had a show she was the clown in the corner that would say retarded things and make the other comedians look good.

Looks like she is making another show for Netflix, doesn't sound like she got cancelled.

Quitting a show to immediately start working on another one for the same streaming service is not what i would call cancelled.

again, I find the two indistinguishable. I don't see how you can find one likable and the other unlikable.
Personally, I find them both meh.

You shut your whore mouth.
Oliver's never done shit for 9/11 Responders or dogged the Man for not doing enough for them.
