Jun 25, 2011You find yourself wetting your eyes either from the honestly bitter truth-full moments or from the hilarious funny situations and lines. Louie is smart intelligent and so sincere- I agree with those critics who say it's the best thing on TV these days, It's a perfect 10 with me. Whether you are in Manhatten or in Tel Aviv- the show succeeds to touch

Jul 5, 2011The dark humor in Louie is pure and uncompromising. Nothing is sacred for the self-deprecating comedian as he attacks everything from the habits of people around him to those of his own family.
Some of the plots seem a bit stretched to meet the punchline but overall Louie brings a refreshing change to comedy TV shows. -
Oct 19, 2011Real humor, Real life sketches, done by a REAL ass comic! Louie CK your the man!!!! Seriously funny sh*t! Out of all the crap you have to choose from on TV. Give this show one watch and you will be addicted.

Sep 2, 2011This year is even better than the first and Louie C.K. is exploring new boundaries in dream scene comedy and visceral life experiences. I can't praise this show enough for anyone who has a love of sophisticated or gutter humor. Funny is funny and this man can bring it in many levels.

Oct 21, 2011This show is filled with lowbrow humor which manages not to speak down to us. Paradoxically, it is sublimely moving and thought-provoking. Whether or not Louie's world resembles your world, it resembles our unpredictable, imperfect world. As Louie says in a seminal episode: "Life isn't something you possess, it's something you take part in."

Jul 19, 2011Louie is incredibly well put together. Obviously one of the funniest guys on the planet is able to introduce a new type of "depressing" comedy that a lot of people can relate to. He is able to find humor in tough times which are depicted in the show. Very Funny and not "dumbed-down" for their audience!
-
Oct 12, 2011This show is ridiculously funny, very rarely does a show come along that fits my odd sense of humour and enjoyment of inappropriate fowl language. I didn't know Louis CK until this show, rushed out and got his stand up shows, which are even funnier. A comic genius!
-
Jul 4, 2011Louie is nuts but everything he does is entertaining. Comedy is hard and we can all see that it's usually just copy this copy that, not Louie. Great job.

Oct 20, 2011This show is just great. Its hilarious, yet incredibly awkward at the same time, and i love it. Louie is flat-out hilarious. I love this show, can't wait for season 3
-
Aug 9, 2011Louie isn't bad, but it's mostly not particularly funny and spends a fair amount of time being depressing. If you like Louis CK you'll like this, if you don't think he is great then it's going to be hard going.
-
Jul 14, 2011Louie is like no other show on television. Even though it may sound simular to seinfield, it couldnt be more different. Theres tons of hilarious scenarios and characters to keep you entertained for ever
-
Jun 27, 2011Outrageous, sexiligous, and in your face hilarity without shame over any subject. Louis c.k. as a father is F*ckn outrageous and funny as hell. a new vein of humor for me at least.
-
Jun 30, 2011Louie is a dementedly hilarious show and there's nothing quite like it. Not everyone will love it like I do but if you give into the hype you--most likely--won't be disappointed.
-
Aug 14, 2011At times, uneven (and admittedly, typically lacking in cohesion), but an overall entertaining and very honest mixture of comedy and poignancy. It's also by far one of the greatest looking shows on TV right now.
-
Jul 2, 2011Louie is amazingly dark, witty, uncomfortable and hilarious this season! There is absolutely nothing like it anywhere on TV right now, its a MUST see!
-
Sep 1, 2011This show is told through non-linear sketches revolving around a sad, divorced man. The honest skits are based off of the life of Louis C.K. Between scenes, the show is puntuated by hilarious stand up.

Sep 11, 2011Just brilliant. In it's simplest terms; he says what you thought for a millisecond in your quietest moments and expands upon it until you realise quite how ridiculous you are.
-
Aug 25, 2011Season Two is even better than Season One. I love the reoccurring characters, mainly Pamela, as her relationship with Louie has so much tension, it adds to the hilariousness. I also like how Louis C.K. isn't the only funny guy on the show, he hangs out with a bunch of his comedian friends and they also get to shine on Louie

Oct 11, 2011Louie with all its dark and sometime grotesque humor still manages to make me laugh. The sad thing is most of the situations in the show can come pretty close to real life experiences. Keep it up C.K. 10/10
-
Dec 1, 2011Funniest show on TV. It actually has some odd wisdom about it in terms of parenting and relationships. Standup segments are always hilarious and push boundaries in a refreshing and intelligent way.
-
Jan 28, 2012Honest, sincere and hilarious are the three words I would use to describe this show. It's oddly slow pace musical numbers of-put some viewers, but it serves its purpose to the showing. It lets you see the world through C.K's eyes, and the modern world through his eyes is hilarious.
-
Feb 14, 2014I was not anywhere near a fan of season 1, but in season 2, Louie has come into its own. It is comedic without a doubt, but even more than that, it covers many, many human issues and is really about life in general, rather than providing laughs. Louie is a triumph of television.
-
Aug 5, 2013The second season of Louie is even better than the first and builds on the original with great form. It really hits its stride as a comedy-drama and Louie's character is better defined here. I also love the editing.
-
Jan 28, 2013Every aspect of this show is just hilarious. The fact that he recasts some members with different roles, introduces new family members, and bits of his stand up are just a few examples. Louis C.K. takes complete advantage of his artistic freedom and delivers every episode.
-
May 2, 2014This is hands down, the best comedy on television. Surpasses the heights of the first season. "Country Drive", "Come on, God" and "Duckling" are three of the best episodes of televison I have ever seen
-
Jul 11, 2014The second season falls off a bit compared to the first season. The problem on the show is that it sometimes are just simple cliches
-
Oct 29, 2017Dating, working, friendship, the mixed bag of wonderfulness and tedium that is raising kids--all of these things clearly take up a huge amount of real estate in Louis C.K.'s mind.Louie is smart, cinematic, and bitterly honest, constantly dancing between revelatory moments and hysterical bursts of humor that are both surprising and touching
-
Mar 7, 2022the gratuitous use of the en word divorced me from an otherwise impressive series abou he later stages of adulthood.i's a prey honest show hat holds no bas but it being autobiographical exposes c.k own questionable beliefs. he is an outstanding comedian but his comedy is not essensial enough for me to git my teeth through slurs(that don't even have proper context within the script.).

The show is a trampoline that sags clear down to the ground, the better to catapult you off into the air. [18 Jul 2011, p.35]
-
Clearly this show is not for the easily offended. Not everyone will appreciate this kind of humor, but anyone who values smart, provocative comedy that's about truth telling will be intrigued.

what else can I do but yap excitedly and try to get you to watch one of the best shows on TV right now? The first four episodes of the new season will not disappoint fans.
