I must track down the first season, but I find it (apart from much of the last 94 minutes) a very compelling and almost painfully human show.
I was expecting a comedy comedy, but there you go.
Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yeah, painfully human is an excellent description.

Always Anti-fascist!
Sometimes that is really funny(I love his stand-up) but sometimes the show is more like "?!"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm super over Louie, so I'm ready to finish out the season tonight.

I liked the finale. Didn't love this season like last season, though.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I'm slowly watching the past season of Parks and Rec, and I don't know how it will progress, but the idea of Andy performing at kids' parties is genius.

ita,
the first season of Louie is probably the funniest of all the seasons. My favorite ep is the one where he takes a plane to Alabama (?). The whole episode is one big WTF that really entertains me. I've seen that ep like 8 times.

This is FX Louie, right, not HBO?
