I love Louis C.K. I get his humor and jokes, and I like them. But this here, was not an ordinary Louis C.K. This is the worst stand up in last 20 years of him.
In previous shows I really liked how he turned around something common, something You didn't ever think about, but here it even felt like he was trying to make a late night show monologue on current problems.
There where actually like 5 minutes in dead silence in the middle of the show. It was a moment when You start to think "This is sad". And I know that He likes to balance between "Ha ha ha - I can't anymore" and "What just happened?Did he just had a breakdown?" And in most cases this works, and He nails it - but not in this show. As He previously said "It's funny to me" so I guess he did it on purpose.
***SPOILER ALERT***
He opens with abortion, and the way he starts this was funny. But in other shows jokes he has an opinion on the matter, but this joke ends with him telling that he does not think that, and then he changes that he thinks that, but then again changes his opinion entirely. I haven't seen something like that in his jokes, usually he stand to it by the end and then tells that this is how he feels, or maybe that it isn't the way that works, but never changing his opinion on the matter.
So at the end - there was only one funny joke where I lough out loud - about year 3 and how can it be year 3 when I am 26. A really funny sketch.
But that's it. I guess I would be really angry if the one show I would visit live was this one...
Sorry
