Is this show trying to be funny?

I tried to watch but every time the audience laughs I don't.

How the heck is this funny?

Before the program was ever aired I vowed never to watch it.
The commercials annoyed the crap out of me.  That actress grates on my nerves.

Has it been cancelled yet?

I actually brought up the subject of this show in the Two Broke Girls thread.
 
I tried to watch it a couple of times, but the whole show seems to be about nothing but her & her boyfriend making sarcastic comments at each other & her trashy girlfriends with all the same old cliché social/lovelife issues that you see on every other lame-ass sitcom that comes down the pike nowadays.
 
Very one dimensional.
 
Maybe the characters will actually develop & become interesting enough to last a few seasons, but I kinda doubt it.
 
I wonder if that "Chelsea something or other" show will be more of the same crap?
 
I'm happy to see Laura Prepon working again, but I get the feeling that this thing will be a big flop too.
 
Now if Danny Masterson & Wilmer Valderrama would just get cast in something.

Two sarcastic a-holes (who obviously love themselves more than they could possibly love each other) sitting around making lame wisecracks.  Yeah, that makes a good sitcom...NOT.  To this day, I still have trouble figuring out which one is supposed to be the female and which one the male.

Replace the W in "Whitney" with an S, and you'll know what the show is called in my house!

I've tried to watch this show three or four times. I averaged around a minute per try. Not surprising this show is tanking in the ratings.
 
I just saw a funny article about Chelsea Handler doing a guest stint on Whitney, which said "Not even Chelsea Handler could save Whitney from ratings murk!!!"
 
Like that's a big surprise.
 
I'll go out on a limb here and predict that Handler's new sitcom will follow Whitney into the dumper in short order.
Hundreds of threads killed.

Detest Chelsea Handler and her protege Whitney.  Whitney has many obnoxious habits, but her worst is that she doesn't seem to have a volume control on her mouth; to me, it seems like she can't speak without yelling.
 
As for Chelsea, man, I don't think I could say a single nice thing about her. She is mean, really mean.  And I DO get her supposed jokes (why do so many people say that you don't understand someone's humor if you don't like them?).  I literally could write pages about how awful a person and comedian she is.  Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!
Heeeeere kitty, kitty, kitty...
