Chelsea Handler Changes Netflix
Entertainment Weekly
“It’s just hard to go from seeing elephants living their lives in the wild and not being bothered by humans, to seeing them put in a bunker every night and then being forced to take assholes like us on rides.”

I've never been a fan of comedians or comedy shows. I've never liked late-night talk shows. But Chelsea Handler changed all of that.

"My tendency to make up stories and lie compulsively for the sake of my own amusement takes up a good portion of my day and provides me with a peace of mind not easily attainable in this economic climate."

After the ever-so-successful "Uganda Be Kidding Me" on Netflix, along with the newly added episodes of "Chelsea Does," on racism, marriage, Silicon Valley and drugs, Chelsea Handler will be re-entering the Netflix realm -- this time, in a unique way. Every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday night, her new 30-minute talk show episodes will become available for streaming.

“I’m a ridiculous person. If you take anything any comedian says seriously, then you’re stupid."

Premiering May 11, Chelsea's talk show will show three nights a week from there on. But "talk show" doesn't do the new show justice. According to Entertainment Weekly, Handler said, “You’ll be traveling around the world and learning new things all courtesy of Netflix. Treat this as an opportunity to get the college education you forgot to get."

So, why this recently rash decision to jump from E! to Netflix? The celebrities she had to work with? (*cough* Justin Bieber) The content she was dealing with? Handler told ET, "It's the difference between playing with kids on a playground and being in a really well-respected college."

Streaming to 186 countries, she wants to keep it real and intriguing to all. By writing a letter to herself, and posting it on social media, she revealed comical (of course) details of her show.

She writes to herself, "Sign up with Netflix." Previously, Handler joked about needing to learn how to stream and continues that joke to this day.

Her dream guest list consists of "Michelle Obama" and "The Pope" and "Arnold Schwarzenegger."

With some motivation and sass, she writes, "You wanted a new show, you got it. You wanted to be on Netflix, you are. You wanted to spread your wings, now fly bitch." How can you not love her?

So, tune into Netflix on May 11, or May 12, or any day, anytime, to watch Chelsea Handler's talk show -- which remains unnamed to the public -- to get your much-needed dose of sexually ambiguous, graciously hilarious and mildly vulgar humor.

“Laugh loudly, laugh often, and most important, laugh at yourself.”

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
