What makes you think he shot it there?

That doesn't say he shot it there

Holy shit he's wearing a suit.

I thought you were jokingly referring to the red curtain and was trying to figure out how having red hair/being a generally red person would make a big shade of red "him wearing a suit" until I saw it in another comment.

Hope it's better than the last few. His stand up peaked around 07-08 imo.

I really loved them all until Oh My God, which I still thought was a good special. His last one was a huge step down though.

Yeah, when comics are hungry and ignored they put out the best material. As soon as they make it they stop trying as hard.

If it turns out being really good it should get up to 3 responses here saying it was ok.

i think theyre all good except the last one. WAY too many impressions and reliance on silly voices.

It was different but still hysterical. Maybe not his best but it was still good. The part where he did the woman answering the door made me laugh hard. Chewed up is my favorite

I laughed at some of it and it wasn't terrible, but it reminded me way more of generic stand-up comedy than the usual Louis

Cuckamania is running wild.

He's lost a lot of weight, can't even see him

He's starting to look like Bill Burr. Does he have the aids?

Louis really hit a plateau. He doesn't have anywhere near the buzz he used to, and he released a special, a different CD, and a new season of his show last year. The numbers don't lie:

Louis C.K.: Shameless (2007 TV Special) 8.7 Votes: 5,026 (HBO)

Louis C.K.: Chewed Up (2008 TV Special) - 8.6 - Votes: 6,306 (Showtime)

Louis C.K.: Hilarious (2010 TV Special) - 8.6 - Votes: 5,557 (Epix)

Louis C.K.: Live at the Beacon Theater (2011 Video) - 8.4 Votes: 5,241 (LouisCK.com)

Louis C.K. Oh My God (2013 TV Special) 8.4 Votes: 5,194 (HBO)

Louis C.K.: Live at the Comedy Store (2015 TV Special) 7.8 Votes: 1,440 (LouisCK.com)

He's just shitting out material at this point. His last special was just garbage.

He was busier than ever last year and nobody was talking about him.

Lots of people used to like Opie.

As big as your imagination

because popularity means quality, right? we all know Transformers are the best movies and Lil Wayne has the best music

thats not what I fucking said.

The drawback of success. Mainstream fans move on to whatever they think the next cool/hip thing is and cast you aside.
