On March 16, 2016, Handler announced on Twitter that each episode would be released at 12:01 a.m. U.S. Pacific Time (3:01 a.m. U.S. Eastern and 8:01 a.m. UTC) on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday mornings, three times a week, including holiday periods where episodes would be "banked" for release or reduced to airing two per week. On that same day, Handler submitted a hand-written memo to herself concerning the new show and the memo said "PREMIERES MAY 11TH". She announced that she and Netflix would unveil the name of the show on her Twitter chat.

Regarding the title of the show, Handler said that "We thought long and hard about the title for my ....Netflix show, and there was a whole team at Netflix who worked on it; we hired a digital department and some small children who work in various countries to help roll this show out, and after two to three long hours, we came up with the name ‘Chelsea. It is named after herself.

The show will not be live but will be filmed in front of a live audience. Handler explained why: "It has to be fed into 190 countries, which prohibits us from going live on Netflix, so we’re going to tape and then they will stream and feed it into every other country and territory that they’re in and then it will come on about probably 12 hours after we tape it."

She expressed that she wants this show to be different from the typical late-night format saying, "I don’t want it to be like a talk show every night where I come out singing and dancing every night."

Reception

Chelsea has received mixed to negative reviews from critics at launch. On Rotten Tomatoes the first series holds a 27% approval rating with an average rating of 4.5 out of 10 based on 11 reviews. The site's critic consensus claims: "Chelsea comes up short in its attempts to innovate the conventional talk show format -- and even worse, it frequently fails to be smart or funny." The first season has a score of 50 out of 100 on Metacritic, indicating "mixed or average reviews". The Decider said the show is "riddled with execution problems," and that it needs to decide if it wants to be "timely or evergreen."
