Start Your Holiday Weekend Off Shamelessly with Louis C.K.

So Louis C.K. has been all over the place recently with the debut of his new show on FX, aptly titled Louie.  While I wasn’t the biggest fan of the pilot episode, I will continue to watch because I am confident it will only get better and I can’t get enough of Louie’s stand-up act.  Apparently I am not alone as some of the biggest names in comedy, including Chris Rock and voice-over extraordinaire Pablo Francisco, agree that C.K. is the funniest act around and is the one comic worth paying top dollar to see.  What draws me to C.K.’s comedy is his brutally honest approach to all the institutions of our society: family, technology, romance, entertainment – nothing is taboo.  Louie will rip his own two children just as viciously as he attacks nutcases like me who bug out when their wireless Internet connection drops while on an airplane.  C.K. made a name for himself in the humor world writing for The Late Show with David Letterman, Late Night with Conan O’Brien, The Dana Carvey Show and The Chris Rock Show, but it wasn’t until he slayed audiences in 2005 with his hour-long HBO special Shameless that he got the recognition he deserved.  Louie continued his meteoric rise to comedy superstardom with his 2008 special, Chewed Up.  Enough blowing smoke up C.K.’s ass, just take a look at some of my favorite clips from Louie’s act below and you be the judge.  Disclaimer:  If you are at work, just make sure you have the headphones in because this dude is NSFW
