On the February 15th episode of the NBC comedy ARE YOU THERE CHELSEA? entitled 'How to Succeed in Business Without Really Crying", actor Nat Faxon guest stars. On the episode, Chelsea (Laura Prepon) learns that their customer Tim Kornick (Faxon) is a marketing executive, she starts dating him to help get Olivia (Ali Wong) an interview at his firm. Much to Chelsea's dismay, however, Tim is intensely sentimental and cries at the drop of a hat. As Olivia's interview process slowly progresses, Chelsea must figure out how to shake off Tim without insulting him or sabotaging Olivia's chances for her dream job. Lauren Lapkus, Jake McDorman and Mark Povinelli also star. The episode airs Wednesday, February 15th at 8:30 pm/ET.

Inspired by the best-selling books from actress/comedian Chelsea Handler, "Are You There, Chelsea?" follows the exploits of the 20-something Chelsea (Laura Prepon, "That ‘70s Show"), an opinionated and unapologetic young woman who lives life to the fullest as a cocktail waitress, friend, daughter, sister and sexually dynamic "advanced drinker."

Chelsea's life revolves around her work at Jerry's Ultimate Sports Bar in New Jersey, where she is surrounded by an eclectic group of friends and co-workers, including: Rick (Jake McDorman, "Greek"), the handsome bartender; Olivia (Ali Wong, "Breaking In"), a fellow cocktail waitress and Chelsea's best friend since childhood; and, Todd (Mark Povinelli, "Water for Elephants"), the bar back who is always ready with a quick comeback. Chelsea and Olivia have recently moved in with Dee Dee (Lauren Lapkus, "The Middle"), a sweet and somewhat sheltered young woman who could be considered the polar opposite of Chelsea. And then there's Chelsea's dad, Melvin (Lenny Clarke, "Rescue Me"), a man with a big personality and a big heart... and all too often - a big mouth.

Chelsea Handler ("Chelsea Lately") has a recurring role as Chelsea's born-again Christian sister, Sloane, a married, conservative, new mom who has little in common with her carefree sister.
