This, and Im not interested in him lying on stage about the situations of his sex offenses

that he claims it was all consensual and people have bought into it is nauseating

very funny stuff.

I saw the first comeback special he did. Had some pretty good material.

Yes, both are great, still one of the

Not yet, been meaning to buy that triple pack he has of his recent specials.

nope

No, those are the only ones that are available. However, you can expect his next one probably around Fall/Winter. I saw his newest set live, which he's still performing. Usually takes a couple months after his last show to be on his website.

Sincerely and Sorry were both some of his best material. Loved them both.

I'm a big fan but haven't watched either special. Considering the names, I assume he addresses the sexual misconduct allegations. In a TLDR kinda way, could you sum up his prespective on the whole thing as expressed through the specials?

"They were asking for it"

If you're going to do something weird ask for consent, then ask are you sure, then just don't do it

Ah ok was just confused over what could be the 3rd title in the triple pack the other user mentioned

I feel like the Louie CK scandal was the most borderline thing to happen. Like honestly, I think the only reason people came down hard on him because the situation lined up too closely with his skits.

Id watch them if they were more readily available.

Watched Sincerely. I didn't like it much. Got maybe one chuckle though can't remember which joke. He just seemed really broken, like after nearly every one of his jokes he was saying something like "nah I don't actually mean hurt kids and kill disabled people"

Reminds me of a friend who always has to say "just kidding" after nearly every "joke" he does. He wouldn't even wait for me to digest the joke, like he's so afraid of me or anyone else getting upset that he always has to add "just kidding" like I don't already know he's joking.

Loius CK's sincerely special reminded me of that.

i think you just didnt read the actual details of what he did, and have bought into second hand accounts that were propagated by Louis CKs fans

he was doing things like calling subordinates into his office and asking them if he could masturbate in front of them

he also did this to co-stars on the set of tv shows

for some reason the only story that caught on, maybe because CK has been good at controlling the narrative, is that he invited women back to his hotel room and asked them to consent, and only did what he did if they consented. But those same reports also said that in at least one of those incidents he blocked the door, not allowing the women to leave until he finished

and look, I dont think what Louie did was totally unforgivable, but it was certainly worse than go away for 9 months and return with material painting himself as the real victim

he had a way back, and imo he didnt earn it

Watched both, he already won the Grammy for Sincerely and I suppose hell have another clean sweep next year with Sorry.

Congrats Louis!

I actually wasnt aware he came out with a new one. Gonna have to check it out
