    He has never gotten the admiration he has deserved as a stand up comic. He could really command an audience with his knack for storytelling and painting vivid, hilarious images of scenarios we all can relate to. He did it better than most. I'll always consider him one of the unsung masters of stand up.

      Yes he did he was huge.. He had multiple TV shows, sold out arenas for HBO specials.. Won awards.. Just because he got old and did less doesn't mean he didn't have fans and admiration..
      Just because he was popular before your time doesn't mean you can go around saying that diminishing his achievements.

    If a comedian can make you laugh without cussing and swearing (which is rare) You've got a talent. Louie is that guy. And a true gentleman. When I was younger I used to work on Crescent Heights and Sunset in Hollywood at a pizza restaurant delivering pizzas. And Louie would call in. And I would make my delivery to his place. Every time he gave me a great tip, and was a gentleman. I'll never forget that. It seems like the people who were brought into money were the assholes....And the ones who struggled and made it big were always the generous ones. Thank you Louie

    Comedic Genius!
    Very few people can bring the terrors, and utter blissful moments of life together, and still create hysterical laughter like Louie Anderson can. He can, because he makes it so relatable.
    His encore scene in this stand-up is total genius. I found myself laughing and crying at the same time.
    All the friends and family I have known in my life, who have been drunks, alcies, winos, came back to me.
    A tear dropped, a smile cracked. Thank you Louie. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

    This is my favorite stand-up comedy routine of all time! I remember watching it with my mom when I was a kid; she had taped it on VHS and we watched it dozens of times. For decades, Louie's jokes were running jokes in our family. Like, "Cindy, I'm swamped!" any time we were slightly inconvenienced. And "LIFE... Live it" among sooo many others. My mom bought his book of letters to his father. I read it as a teenager and cried. Louie Anderson was one of a kind. God bless him. I'll miss him. ❤

I could just imagine him as a kid, with that whiny voice and the way kids act and walk when they don't get their way about something! And, that Face!!!

He’s hilarious. ❤️all the comments about the positive impact Louie had on so many lives. Curious about his marriages though. First one was 4 months & the 2nd with his high school sweetheart was only 4 weeks (if you can believe the Internet).

    In the mid-90s NBC used to show older HBO comedy specials on Saturday nights after SNL and I taped this one and watched it like a hundred times. Made me laugh EVERY time. Not long after Louie had his cartoon show and I wrote him a fan letter and received a lovely personalized photo of Louie and the cartoon version of him. RIP, Louie.
