put Max' clothes back on plz.....:sitdown:
I'm pretty sure the actress is over 18. That's the only way they can get away with showing Max in her draws on TV.

This was the worst ep of the series. I felt like I wasted 30 mins watching this. The worst aspects of Louis C.K.'s writting is starting to show thru w/ this ep.

I can't remember what episode was but it was probably the 2nd of this season but I was :RussellMartBrook: at Sam's reaction when her mom got in her face when Harry Belafonte grandson started playing the piano. She legit hit the :scust:

I think I’m done with this show.

I don’t find it funny, I don’t find it interesting, I hate Pamela and I despise the kids.

I think I’m also over the overall Louis CK style of “comedy” too.
Louie writing is not funny. Trying to blend comedy with a drama doesn’t work for him. It’s like a copy of his fx show with Pamela as the star. No likeable characters, boring and pretentious

Thought the first season was just ok, haven't started this one yet. But I think you're spot on, a lot of these shows require you to be old, depressed, and white to relate to them :hubie:

Still fukk with the gods over at FX though :blessed:

Yeah. I'm not a believer in the "cac humor", "cac shyt" that people like to assign stuff like this, but I'm pretty over the overall "white people staring into a mirror deeply analyzing their lives" TV we've been getting for 4/5 years now.

White people just have too much time to think about themselves and every minute detail of every social interaction that their TV shows are just getting more and more niche.

It's not even depressing, but it's just a clear indication of (ugh) "white privilege" to have nothing else to worry about other than "how you feel" every fukking episode.

I'm done.

Louie had a couple joints in his series - I fukked with the Ikea episode and the arc where he fell for the Eastern European chick.

This show feels like it lost its way, though - which is too bad. I liked Pamela in Californication and King Of The Hill.
