OK, apparently it is actually called "Louie." Doesn't matter, fucking hilarious. School bus breaks down in Harlem, and he starts telling kids to switch seats. Teacher asks what he is doing "putting all the dark kids in the window seats." Had me in tears. The format is a bid off. Two stand up/reality segments and each paired with a sitcom segment. It works, but can be jarring. The segment with all the comics playing poker segmenting into a monologue about being a gay man and how the word "faggot" affects gay men was really odd. It wasn't a bad segment, or poorly produced, but it was like watching a play and then the lead walks into a spotlight while everything else is dark and starts speaking to the audience. Except Louis CK's ugly mug looks up and nods every 15 seconds.

Finally caught the pilot and the poker episode.
The sitcom stuff has taken a backseat to most of the stand-up or conversations with fellow comedians, which is fine by me. The poker scenes were fucking stellar. They made Nick DiPaolo less douchified, which is an epic feat.
BAH DAP BAH BAH BAH I'm lovin' it.Me quick one want slow
