Nah, I think the bit was about how he feels like he's almost getting to that point.

amazing. most of the commenters seem to get it though.
I am starting to get really disappointed by posts on this blog that read pieces of culture with no analysis, sense of irony, or recognition or satire, let alone any context in which to place this particular piece of this comedians work.
ty and otm.

stoked for S2 - the bits described sound great. Hope he can keep it together, or maybe get some trustworthy help at some point, 'cause it seems like making 6 hours of actually-funny/compelling TV every year on your own is a bit much.

this was great!like not one of the funniest eps but, it's just so beautifully put together & the score's so great and his character is so compelling in its visible uncertainty. so glad it's back on.
― devoted to boats (schlump), Friday, 24 June 2011 20:17 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah. It was weird, it wasn't that funny, but the neighbor was amazing. The line about "don't let your sister die because you're awkward with strangers".
― dan selzer, Friday, 24 June 2011 20:41 (thirteen years ago) link
That makes it sound like I didn't like it. I did, I just think some episodes are hilarious and some are more...impressionistic or something.
― dan selzer, Friday, 24 June 2011 20:42 (thirteen years ago) link
I love the casting of this show. The woman who played his sister was like the least televisiony looking person on a sitcom ever.
― Darin, Friday, 24 June 2011 21:44 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah absolutely. it was the neighbour exchanges i was thinking of; not necessarily just because they're obviously stylistically different but just being so charged and evocative. i read an interview where he talked about the direction, about trying some new lenses this year, and there's something about him being tightly in focus and everyone else being slightly off that totally fits.
― devoted to boats (schlump), Friday, 24 June 2011 21:45 (thirteen years ago) link
i loved that she had the CK voice of being able to say, 'but kind of carry on, right?'
― devoted to boats (schlump), Friday, 24 June 2011 21:46 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah the no-makeup, calling CK dude, the sister was cast perfectly.
That bit at the beginning about not letting his daughter drown was hilarious.
Weirdly, the bit about families divorcing so the kid can visit 2 happy homes made me teary. Hormonal I guess?

OK ep, but a little light on the lols for a season opener, esp. given how high the bar had been raised in the final stretch of S01.

i think with the thing making this so good & distinct being its honesty, & what it's trying to capture, i'm okay with this
― devoted to boats (schlump), Saturday, 25 June 2011 08:17 (thirteen years ago) link
It was weird, it wasn't that funny
so mostly like last season? i mean that in a good way, of course. the extended detours into uncomfortable non-lol territory (sometimes for almost an entire episode) are what makes this show special to me. haven't seen this yet btw.
― circa1916, Saturday, 25 June 2011 08:32 (thirteen years ago) link
This show is pretty amazing, and I'm glad it does stuff that are a bit stranger and more conceptual than funny. I recently saw Louie's first show, the sitcom, and it was very bizarre. It felt like a joke version of a sitcom that this show might fade into for a second as a dream sequence or something. Prefer this to it x1000.
― Telephoneface (Adam Bruneau), Saturday, 25 June 2011 16:23 (thirteen years ago) link
