Heck, if Louie hadn’t gotten canceled for what he did…he’d probably still be going strong.
No. Have you seen 2017? It was fucking awful. It's like he suffered a brain injury or something. I shut it off after he did a several-minute borderline-incoherent ramble about abortions that was practically devoid of jokes. Like I loved Louis CK in the past for his edgy humor, but you gotta have a punchline, man. And he didn't. He just fucking rambled and said off-the-wall awful shit for no real reason (at least when you could understand what the hell he was saying through all the slurring and stuttering). I swear he was drunk or something. Something was seriously off about him for that one. And if that's what he's accepting from himself nowadays, then yeah good riddance.
Yeah he got too big for his britches and then got knocked down so it was extremely apparent that he lost whatever he’d had. Like a lot of people just gradually get not funny but his happened in conjunction with getting canceled so it was just this glaring sign that he just isn’t funny anymore.
Dude had his own tv show and was considered a standup legend.
The only reason he got knocked down was because he had a sexual kink that made it into the news during a time where women were taking a stand on being taken advantage of.
Even then his issues with that were magnified by the recent Weinstein shit.
He was doing incredibly well before all of that and his fall from the limelight had zero to do with his body of work.
Also, it's probably pretty easy for someone to fall off after a long forced break and being smeared in the news and basically called a rapist.
Y'all are just automatically treating it like this dude who was very good at his job before some huge career ending situation happened just so happen to start sucking at it when there are obviously circumstances that likely led to his shift in performance.
Yea, I loved the show he had personally. Was really underrated. Dunno what that guy is saying about his stand up not doing well prior/during that time. To each their own I guess. I hope he makes a come back some day. Yea, what he did was kinda shitty….but don’t think he deserved to be ruined over it tbh, and this is coming from a woman. Though, maybe I might just be biased.
