Louis C.K.
Anybody else on here a Louis C.K. fan? If you haven't heard of him I highly recommend you check him out on Youtube or somewhere else. He's my favorite comedian right now. The guy is absolutely hilarious.

It might be the funniest show on TV. It is certainly the most realistically funny show I've seen in a long time (unlike something like Curb or Arrested Development). Each episode is a brilliant short film.

I have only seen his stand up stuff but would like to start watching the show. It is on FX, right?

Yes, it is on FX. If anyone isn't watching it, they are missing out.

I'm not sure funny is the right word I'd use. Some things are funny but it's not a sit-com. I do agree that every episode is like a short film.

Love his stand up. Also thought the one season of Lucky Louie on HBO was great.

Lucky Louie had more jokes top-to-bottom than the current show, but the current show is comedic high art. Not as many laugh-out-loud moments, but the jokes pack a wallop.

I saw him in Chicago recently -- he's great.

Re: Louis C.K.
He's my generation's version of George Carlin. He's the best comedian out there right now.
