Trivia

Louis C.K.'s production deal with FX involved him taking on a small per-episode budget (starting at $200,000 and being raised to $250,000 for Season 2) in exchange for total creative freedom. FX does not submit script notes or other production suggestions, and the cable network does not see the episodes until CK brings them finished copies. See more »

Extremely Funny
24 May 2013 | by (Mille-Isles, Canada) – See all my reviews

I'm hooked. I just saw the pilot and I laughed so loud, my dog thought that I was in pain. I've seen Louie CK around, in Parks and Recreation mostly, but never any of his specials or stand up. Of course I know his reputation and that people love him. The format of the show is straight ahead; stand up- very funny and witty, and then skits to illustrate the point. The subject matter is not too sweet, but constantly warm, and the characters are funny and eccentric, funny first. I loved the yellow lights at the pizza joints and Chelsea Peretti who is perfect as the the nice date that just isn't working out. If she's still single and wants to live in the mountains north of Montreal, I'll date her! Call me Ms. Peretti, our date will be slightly (but not by much) better than your date with Louie. Still four more seasons. Yay and thank you Mr. CK (Any relation to Calvin Klein?) Sheriff Laoun
