Reception
Erika Gonzalez of Rocky Mountain News praised Handler's performance, noting that some of her best bits came from awkward interview segments, such as revealing too much during a massage session with Gary Coleman and passing out while interviewing Mad TV's Michael McDonald. Jeff Rusnak, a Sun Sentinel comedy columnist, called the show "wickedly uninhibited" and remarked that it seemed better suited for HBO than basic cable, citing an episode where Handler bared a breast and later ran over a stuffed dog and a baby doll during a driving competition with an octogenarian and a blind man.
