Louis C.K.: Sorry

I haven't had laughed this hard in a loooong time and I LOVED it. From start to finish, his material and delivery were as close to perfect as it can get. Punch after punch, joke after joke they landed strongly. Again he did not compromise and went after touchy subjects the way only he can. Classic Louis. (And maybe it was this funny because now he is free from distributors overseeing his work, I dunno.....whatever it is keep it up) I just wish I was in the audience alongside all those other women giving him an standing ovation.

Louis's two specials since "the incident" are entitled Sincerely and Sorry. Of the two Sincerely is better imo.

Louis has always had a dark edge, but the edge, while still dark is a bit dull from being knocked around in the junk drawer of life. On his worst day he is funnier than 99% of people and I enjoyed every moment of Sorry, but it's not as good as his best work.

Fans of his will enjoy it for sure. It is a bit like seeing an old friend who has been out of circulation for a while. His jokes are his classic style and his delivery is perfect as always, his long career has given him very very good instincts that serve him well. He barely needs to work at it anymore, or at least that's the way it feels.

I wont say it feels like he's "going through the motions" but it's a different Louie tan the one we had before, his mood and tone are just a bit different. He has changed. I reckon some of the changes are good, but some of them may not be.

Good show.

Its what he does.

The first couple minutes was stale, half baked. Then.... LCK finds his groove and tackles every impossible topic you can think of. You can tell he's been sitting on his act for a while, it's sharp and to the point. Honestly... this is one of his best sets. It's brilliant, he goes after literally every controversial topic you can think of, and it's entertaining. Great social commentary without being angry, like Chappelle, or bitter like Burr.

LCK is basically the modern day Carlin. His word play isn't the same, not as directly intelligent... Carlin was Carlin... but LCK attacks impossible subjects, like Carlin did. It might not always be laugh inducing, but it's intelligent, entertaining, like Chappelle.

Glad LCK is back, fantastic set. When he is dead and gone, this will go down as one of his best.

But I watched this special. I wanted to watch it, I was elated whn I heard there was a new one available on his site and yes, the bad man paid the money and bought it. And I'm glad I did. Jim Gaffagan's most recent special 'Comedy Monster' was really good, as you'd expect from a top comedian. But I forgot how much Louis CK makes me laugh so hard I sometimes gasp for air. You might THINK you've heard all of the takes on covid, the trans community, kids, adoption, B-holes... but face it: You know Louis CK has a much more original and hilarious view on it all. Just watch it and try not to laugh... and let people say you're 'bad' for watching this, all they want because THAT is what they do... all of the time. I can live with the 'shame' and so can you.

Louis CK is a serious contender for the greatest comedian of all time. Like The Beatles, his quantity of quality is undeniable, as is his consistency, and Sorry is yet another fantastic addition to his outstanding catalogue.

This man is one of the great moral philosophers of our generation, and the irony of that is not lost on him. Since revelations of his private life hit the headlines, Louis has become even more willing to take risks. He says what he wants and we can make what we make of it, and that, in essence, is exactly who he is.

As a fan, this is the show I wanted to see; Louis CK being Louis CK without restraint or limitation. This is Louis as he is and it is a masterpiece.

10/10.
