Chelsea Lately Season 3 Episode 42 Willa Ford, Chris Hardwick, Natasha Leggero, Andrew Daly

  • February 5, 2009

Chelsea Lately season 3 episode 42 features a star-studded lineup of guests including singer turned reality TV star Willa Ford, TV personality Chris Hardwick, comedian Natasha Leggero, and actor Andrew Daly. The episode kicks off with host Chelsea Handler diving straight into the latest celebrity gossip, from Lindsay Lohan's legal troubles to the latest Hollywood hookups.

As always, Handler's opening monologue is infused with her signature sharp wit and acerbic commentary. She takes aim at everyone from Kim Kardashian to Kanye West, leaving no celebrity unscathed. After a few minutes of rapid-fire jokes and punchlines, Handler brings out her first guest of the night.

Willa Ford, who rose to fame in the early 2000s with hits like "I Wanna Be Bad," sits down with Handler to discuss her recent foray into reality TV as a contestant on Dancing With the Stars. The two women bond over their shared love of dancing, with Handler joking that she would love to see Ford do the cha-cha in a thong. Ford takes it all in good humor, and the conversation soon turns to her music career and upcoming projects.

Next up is Chris Hardwick, host of the popular AMC talk show Talking Dead. Handler and Hardwick waste no time in diving into the world of zombies and dissecting the latest episodes of The Walking Dead. Hardwick's enthusiasm and encyclopedic knowledge of all things geeky is contagious, and Handler can't help but get caught up in his enthusiasm.

The third guest of the night is comedian Natasha Leggero, who brings her trademark irreverence and biting wit to the show. The conversation quickly steers towards the taboo topic of comedy and political correctness, with Leggero arguing that comedians should be free to tell any joke they want, no matter how offensive it may seem to some people. Handler, ever the contrarian, argues that there are limits to what can be joked about in today's hyper-sensitive culture.

Last but not least, actor and improviser Andrew Daly rounds out the guest lineup. Daly, who is known for his work on shows like Eastbound & Down and Review, charms Handler with his dry wit and deadpan delivery. The two engage in a hilarious back-and-forth about the perils of social media and the importance of staying off the grid.

Throughout the episode, Handler keeps the laughs coming with her irreverent jokes and teasing banter with the guests. Her quick wit and fearless approach to comedy make for a refreshing and entertaining half-hour of late-night TV. By the end of the episode, viewers will find themselves wishing they could hang out with Handler and her guests in real life – or at least tune in for the next episode of Chelsea Lately.
