Re: Louis C.K.

I put him at #2 in my generation of comics behind Patton Oswalt. I echo what JFoots said about the show not always being "funny," but it's very compelling. Sometimes, the tension in the show is so real as to be discomforting. There's a lot of rage in this guy,

I was listening to him tonight and I thought the same thing.

Agreed. His standup and show are great. Sometimes my stomach hurts from laughing so hard, and sometimes it just hurts from the tension. Either way, he's one talented guy.

My "favorite" kind of rotates. I definitely think Louie and Patton are up there. Bill Burr is also one of my favorites, his new special is on Netflix and it was great.

I have not seen the show but love his stand up routines. He is hilarious.

Re: Louis C.K.

The question is, did you watch the unaired last episode of Lucky Louis?
