Handler's affection for Bravo was clear from the moment they started working together. She praised her co-star in a 2007 interview with ET. "The worst part of doing the show is that I have to work five days a week, which I'm not accustomed to. I'm a stand-up comedian, so I usually would work twice a week and it's for like, an hour. The best part is that Chuy and I get to spend every day together," she shared."I love him!"

Rest in Peace, Chuy. You were the best part of Chelsea Lately.
