Chelsea Handler/Fred Armisen/Mario Batali

Netflix and Chelsea, great partnership...

Vapid self-portrayal masked as documentary

I wanted it to be good. It's actually horrible.

Chelsea Does

This is not a documentary. To be fair, I&apos;m not easily entertained or pleased, I want the stuff I&apos;m spending my time on to provide some kind of cerebral and/or sensory stimulation, to surprise me with refreshing perspectives.

Chelsea talks a lot but she doesn&apos;t say much. From the things I&apos;ve seen so far, it&apos;s MAINLY about her getting herself high from being &quot;blunt&quot; and &quot;provocative&quot;. The problem is that provocation without real content or any message is just as thought-provoking as your teenage rebel son&apos;s rude remarks on your cooking skills. You just know he wants to be an ass.

I seriously didn&apos;t see what she could teach me or anyone else. What&apos;s the aim of this &quot;documentary&quot; series? &quot;The college education you never had&quot;, wrote another reviewer. Well, that may be true, since some people work hard to get actual education.

So, in case you haven&apos;t watched this yet, I give you a brief impression of what to anticipate by summarizing Episode 3: Haha, she makes her interview partners say that Jews and Blacks are cheap liars! Wow, it&apos;s so confronting, so provocative, especially she is Jewish herself. How ironic and self-deprecating! Haha, she questions the use of a hookah, IN FRONT OF a waiter with Egyptian roots. Savage. We got a badass over here! Haha, she just said that no one in the entire world is attracted to Asian men and she feels sorry for them! WOW, girl&apos;s got guts, she&apos;s so outspoken, and so so brave!

Critical commentary on the compulsive political correctness in our &quot;Western&quot; societies as well as the wounds that racism brings to those who are affected, is bitterly needed. Chelsea Does it Wrong because Chelsea wants it to be about Chelsea. Too bad that Chelsea is not only incapable of capturing any valuable observations but clearly doesn&apos;t know the difference between smart, provocative investigation and saying offensive things for the sake of being offensive. (But at least she said it!!! Right?)

Let&apos;s take look on another failed episode. A potentially interesting plot (&apos;cause the older I get, the more I&apos;m revolted by the thought of me being married) was handled in the most shallow way. Not saying that she can&apos;t bring her personal stories into this. But. The subject &quot;Marriage&quot; is not covered well if it consists of her delivering derogatory comments as a guest in a Las Vegas Wedding (oh wow, how daring) or her ex-boyfriend sharing uneventful memories after their break-up, what, 20 years ago? Seriously?

Chelsea likes blunt, uncensored honesty, right? (As she keeps stating this over and over.) She is a 42-year old woman with a too-cool-for- school-attitude and the wisdom of a Youtube beauty vlogger.

In the funny and personal documentary Chelsea Does: Marriage, Chelsea Handler examines modern romantic relationships by interviewing experts, kids, an ex-boyfriend and even her own family members.
