lolll pootie tang is totally underrated

Ha, I misread that as "pootie tang is totally unedited." Then I thought, hm, that might fit.

One of the best shows on television...
Ricky Gervias's appearences as his doctor are funnier than shit...

two months pass...

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.

can't wait!

the other comedians did not exactly help that clip

that video redeemed my faith in humanity

Don't start the chain you know? (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 22 June 2011 04:19 (thirteen years ago) link

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?

Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 25 June 2011 00:42 (thirteen years ago) link

knew I recognized the neighbor from something else:

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

That episode was incredible.

polyphonic, Saturday, 25 June 2011 17:40 (thirteen years ago) link

holy shit! so good.

40% chill and 100% negative (Tracer Hand), Saturday, 25 June 2011 22:28 (thirteen years ago) link

standup-level lol quotient is the wrong metric for this show imo

Best fart gag since Blazing Saddles?

Chuck_Tatum, Sunday, 26 June 2011 02:36 (thirteen years ago) link

well, since Deadwood at least.

Gukbe, Sunday, 26 June 2011 02:50 (thirteen years ago) link

god that was such a great setup for that fart gag too. Dude is ice-cold.

Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Sunday, 26 June 2011 03:42 (thirteen years ago) link

wait, it's on? did my tivo miss this?

Don't start the chain you know? (forksclovetofu), Monday, 27 June 2011 00:40 (twelve years ago) link

10:30 Eastern on Thursdays. First episode was last week. I'm sure they'll rerun it this week at some point.

Gukbe, Monday, 27 June 2011 00:41 (twelve years ago) link

Did anyone else think of the fart gag in The Young Ones?

loved loved loved the first scene of the new ep hahahahaha

the-dream's car of the summer (tpp), Monday, 27 June 2011 21:37 (twelve years ago) link

I was almost crying by the end of the opening scene (it's been a rough year), and then Louie flips the bird and I cracked up. Perfect.

schwantz, Monday, 27 June 2011 23:25 (twelve years ago) link

Ah my gf erased it cause she thought it was a rerun. We salvaged and watched. Perfect.

god he is the worst

rebel yelp (gbx), Tuesday, 28 June 2011 18:29 (twelve years ago) link

Every time I accidentally leave the TV on at 11:30 on a weeknight, I see the opening of his show and think, "Wait, this is still on?"

and I love how Louis basically gives him an eyeroll with every fake-ass question "So, so how are your kids doing hehehe"..."UGGGGH. FUCK. They're FINE"
