After Lately

After Lately is a Mockumentary - a "behind the scenes" of the popular show "Chelsea Lately" on the E! Network.

The good: It's not a Kardashian show, a major plus, and it is true original programming - there is no plot to it, and it never stops making you laugh.

Another good thing the show has going for it: it's actually funny. It's not trying so hard to make you laugh at it - it's like second nature to the cast of this program, and they do it perfectly.

The show has been on for 3 seasons, and I am waiting for a fourth season to show up.

The bad: Too many people pass this show up. While it has no plot, that doesn't even remotely hurt it at all. It's a show that is what it is, and does well at being just that.

If you haven't seen this show, please give it a viewing. The first and second seasons are on iTunes, and it will be money well spent.

10/10

I am a huge fan of Chelsea Handler and her show "Chelsea Lately". Her sarcastic sense of humor always has me bursting with laughter. Her new show "After Lately" has even more sarcasm and shines more on her employee's. The show may seem like a huge "The Office" rip-off but it's not trying for that awkwardness comedy. Their blunt with their jokes and they're pretty funny.

The show has no plot and that, for an odd reason, turns people away. This show is a breath of fresh air from all the Kardashian shows popping up one after the other. I am a fan of the Kardasians but their shows get really annoying airing one after the other. That and Sex and the City which should have never been put on the network. Comedy is comedy and if you like to laugh watch it. For a bunch of unexperienced actors, besides Sarah Colonna, they're pretty believable with their sarcastic attitude. I like the show and hope it receives the better reviews it deserves.

I gotta say, I love this show. It was a little slow coming out of the gate, but I have been watching every one and I think it's awesome. I'm a Chelsea Handler fan, but I don't like watch Chelsea Lately every day... but I love that this kind of show exists at E! And I've never seen a show that blurs the lines of reality quite this way, which is interesting -- not everyone is a great actor, but the fact that they are real people playing themselves is fun enough to make up for it.

It's not for everyone, but it makes me laugh... and it reminds me of Larry Sanders Show, just meaner and more real. I have fun watching these people because they sound like real people, like ridiculous conversations I have with my friends, and it feels natural, like people talking, like in The Office.

I guess if you don't like these people, or if you just want more Chelsea Lately, this show won't be your cup of tea... but it works for me and I've been telling my friends about it. I hope it keeps going, it's way better than the other crap E! runs. I only watch E! for The Soup and Chelsea Lately... and now After Lately. Keep up the good work.

This show makes me laugh so hard. I have never seen anything capture the rawness and comedy of real life situations as After Lately does. I have to admit that I had no idea who Chelsea was or that this show was based on real people. Since Seinfeld went off the air, I haven't liked a lot of what I saw on TV. With most of the crap that's on T.V. I find that the acting is lacking and the jokes are, as Kramer would say, "soooooo played". After lately has a fresh and quick wit about it. I love the genuine, realistic, yet hilarious dialogue and interactions between the cast. Intelligent people with a sliver of a sense of humour will love this show.

I'm also a big fan of Chelsea Handler. I wasn't expecting more Chelsea Lately, but I was expecting something funny. It's really not. There are 8 or more writers plus Chelsea & Chuy writing for Chelsea Lately to write a 2 minute monologue and create (not write jokes, just create) topics for discussion to last for 15 minutes. These people aren't that funny. Their attempts at humor are benign. Racial hyperbole abounds. As Chelsea said in one of the promo's for the show '...it's about people who really have no business being on TV.' Sadly, I agree Chelsea. I've looked forward to this show for months and now I'd almost rather watch the news. Chelsea Handler needs to stick to making fun of celebrities and keep the cameras away from her comedian wannabe's except for the occasional round table appearance. I think many fans were expecting to see more of Chelsea Handler, but she's rarely on camera in After Lately. A big thumbs down from a big fan.
