"That's offensive, you're making jokes about rape."
"You don't like rape?"
"No!"
"That's weird, considering you wouldn't even be here today if your mother hadn't raped that homeless Chinese guy however many years ago."

I think if you go in just expecting a comedy you may be disappointed, it's not always funny or even fun

The first time I saw the heckler bit is probably the most I've laughed at a television show ever.

Same episode for me, only it was the cop movie thing after it. The whole stretch from when he enters the casting office to that montage of awful "Your father's dead"s had me dying.

What a strange last episode, great end to my favorite season of this show so far

Hey guys, I just started writing for an entertainment blog covering tv comedy. My first article went live yesterday (it covers The Office) but I will probably cover Louie in some type of season 3 wrap-up. I'd appreciate it if you could hit it up. http://tvupmovement.blogspot.com/201...ng-of-end.html

My friend was talking the other day about how Louie is a new style of sitcom, rooted from the change in sitcom created by Seinfeld, and more built off Larry David's Curb Your Enthusiasm, which would be the 'missing link' in the equation of how a show could get weirder and more personal about the life of one man. Louie would be taking it to a different level tho. Thought it was interesting.

I've always thought that Louie was similar to Curb with more drama thrown in... in any case, my 2 favorite shows quite possibly, ever.

That's what I'm saying, its a natural growth from that type of a show, which was a natural growth from Seinfeld. Sitcom evolution should be a class in some college.

Pretty good. One of the better arcs of any comedy I've seen towards the end. And the beginning is still great.

Perfect. I loved the Duck arc from last season so I'm sure this one is executed just as well.
