Both of Bob's posts came through to me... Worth noting is that the sitcom, crappy ratings that it has, is outdrawing Chelsea Lately. So there's a decent chance some people watching the sitcom aren't familiar with the talk show or the books.

Mark Jeffries, to Joe Hass: Outside of the fact that it's not funny, they don't even bother trying to keep with the premise. Since the show is supposedly based on Handler's books about her earlier years before she became a standup and Prepon is supposed to be playing her at that age, it seems to me that the show should be set in the 90s. However, there are so many contemporary references in episodes that it seems to be set in an alternate universe where Handler doesn't have a late-night talk show on E! Are they assuming that the audience has never read any of Handler's books? The commenter to this page, and her goilfriend, didn't, tho judging from their employer they might not have enough time for reading: http://www.michigandaily.com/arts/are-you-there-chelsea-tv-review -- BOB -- TV or Not TV ....
