Plot Synopsis

CHELSEA DOES is is a four part docu-series featuring Chelsea Handler exploring four topics of personal and universal fascination: marriage, racism, Silicon Valley, and drugs. The episodes include:

"Chelsea Does Marriage": In this funny and personal documentary, Chelsea Handler examines modern romantic relationships by interviewing experts, kids, an ex-boyfriend and even her own family members. The film also features appearances by Jason Biggs, Jenny Mollen, Colin Cowie and former Ashley Madison CEO Noel Biderman, among others.

"Chelsea Does Racism": Handler explores a serious, hot-button topic the only way she knows how: by being outspoken and unwaveringly honest. Highlights include a roundtable discussion with experts from the NAACP, the Anti-Defamation League and other civil rights organizations; a sit-down conversation with Rev. Al Sharpton; a trip to a South Carolina plantation; and Handler's eye-opening journey to Israel where she has an intimate conversation with former president, Shimon Peres.

"Chelsea Does Silicon Valley": Is technology making us better or worse? What are the consequences of Internet shaming? How does Netflix work? In this doc, Handler, a self-proclaimed technophobe, seeks answers to all of these questions. Netflix CEO Reed Hastings, Khloe Kardashian, Jon Ronson, and other notables help her adapt to a tech-savvy world.

"Chelsea Does Drugs": Handler embarks on several long, strange trips in this documentary, from Willie Nelson's tour bus all the way to Peru, where she takes the hallucinogenic drug ayahuasca. Whether she's dining on a marijuana-infused meal or mixing alcohol and Ambien (under a neurologist's supervision), Handler's sharp sense of humor is matched by her repeated willingness to "go there" on camera.
