It was consensual, and there was no business pressure or employer-employee. The *actual* complaints against Louis CK also confirm that, so you basically just have media guys spreading poisonous rumors as facts and the crowd eating it up.
Good joke. M’dudes he’s talking about what he wants happens. If you want to defend him knock yourself out but film and tv are collaborative, and he’s got distain for that. You’re saying he’ll shit on anybody but him having a say but he would’ve walked away? Dude is a narcissist and narcissists love to trap people in gray areas.
Birb An artist =/ their art. That’s pretty basic knowledge. Charlie Chaplin eloped with an underage girl, Duke molested his children and terrorised his family, Chris Rock cheated on his wife etc. etc. You get my point.
I totally agree with the "TV dialogue" thing. My wife has been re-watching 'Gilmore Girls' lately, and the phony dialogue drives me nuts. Worse than the overwrought dialogue, is the rapid fire delivery. There's not even a beat between lines. No character takes a second to absorb what's been said to them and then respond. Every line exchange is like a ping pong game
First thing I thought of at the start of this was Gilmore Girls too. Can't stand shows where the writers impose their personalities into every single character
Embarrassing show. Watched it (half asleep 5 years ago) and it felt like the writers were 14 year old girls showing off how "good" their taste was, as opposed to the characters being that
and this is why louie's shows are amazing; all those dumb scripts got us to a point where we were craving for actual conversations rather than a toilet roll of one liners being unrolled each day on the set.
Have you watched his show? It's a surreal bit that is full of unrealistic situations with all unreal characters.. So how can you talk about real conversations when you are in a unreal situation..
Can't wait for his return. What he said about NPH; good person bad work, even if Louis is a bad person/did a bad thing, his work is great and I can't wait for his work when he would be able to joke about how bad he feels. I would love to see how he would write it into jokes.
What happened with Louis was totally unfair, they are all so desperate for a bad guy to blame for everything. They tried to ruin his life without hesitation, just to feel like they're superior. He's accomplished so much, his fans are loyal & grateful. Plus, we can already see that the Hollywood snobs & mainstream media are losing their credibility like never before, they've shown us all how unreasonable they are. Louis we're with you, your fan videos continue to grow everyday, we've got your back!
harooni22 - way to leap to some bizarrely unrelated Jew-blaming...I mean, what? How did you get from A to B there? Also, Louis CK (of whom I remain a big fan, before you make assumptions there) has Jewish heritage from his grandfather - does that ruin your conspiracy somewhat? 🙄
louie is completely right. Intentionality completely kills comedy. Because people don't want to laugh at how clever you are, they wanna laugh at you. At who you are as a person. Because humanity is inherently funny.
Bruh I'd get it if the guy had raped women but unanimously all women who have come out have said they knew he wasn't forcing them into anything and they could leave the room at any point after he asked them if he could whip his dick out. The man is weird but which comedian isn't? At least he doesn't rape and doesn't ruin the career of someone who'd say no
but you know what though - I think there's too much of a rush to wholly defend him on the other side of the spectrum. I'm a fan of his and have been since my early teens, I also think it was right that he was called on his creepy behaviour. It wasn't assault, it isn't comparable with other now well-known predators in terms of severity or harm, but it is comparable in terms of it plainly being a man who was highly respected in his field not using his better judgement and maybe putting women in uncomfortable situations, and I think that is what has made him get lost in the mix with people like Harvey Weinstein who is a brutal and violent predator. I'm a woman and I know if a man had done to me what he did in front of those women I wouldn't really be fazed, or I'd at most be like "ha you're gross" and leave it at that - but that isn't to say the act itself is okay or that any other woman should have the same response. He did a shitty thing and we're living in a time whereby people will react however they're going to react to it. Most people are reasonable and smart enough, and I think in time he could have a big career again. But he did definitely do something wrong.
@@crochetbyrhiannon you cant compare this to what weinstein did he destroyed careers of aspiring people in the film industry. Louis did it to people who were his piers that he found good looking people who were in the same spectrum so it wasn't a "let me fuck you for your benefit" it was a "wanna fuck?" Or "wanna watch me play with muh dick" Type of scenario that everyone goes through. He didn't deserve the hate he got
R Layla I don’t agree with how it turned out. People do stupid things in life sometimes as they are learning how to live and it was obviously a bit much but it was between him and the girls not him and his fans. He didn’t commit a crime nor should the me too movement have greatly affected his life and career. You can argue me all you want but you wouldn’t if you lost your career over being a bit over the top with your sexuality so long as it was not criminal in nature.

Exactly... And I don't think this was a dig at him, necessarily. It's more about the type of comedy sitcom writers do for the past 20 years, really. NPH is massively talented, but I'm sure he would never call himself a comedian.

@@vgnhdhe Friends, Simpsons, HIMYM, Frasier, MASH, Seinfeld, The Office, South Park, 30 Rock, Family Guy, Futurama. WTF are you talking about lol? LCK showed his dick to people bit yeah, you're right, LCK is a genius lol. STFU
The kicker and obvious thing is that the plots and the jokes have nothing in common. Unlike Louis's shows where the plot is the direct source of the humor.
It's 2022 and Louis is making a comeback. He's doing things differently and on a smaller scale, But he's funnier than ever. This is what happens when a decent person fucks up, They learn from their mistakes.
I'd say that the people whose careers got stomped while he and his boys were covering up all the non-consensual sexual advances, would object to the word "decent". And what kills me about him getting a pass and his accusers still being called liars and opportunists by his fans to this day, is that I don't think he's even that funny. But that's just me, I get it.
@@danpsouyou came to a comment section of a video about someone you don't think is that funny for what reason? To say he's a bad person? Spend your fucking time better dude that's just sad
Man that Louie Bully episode, I saw that as a kid and it stuck with me forever. You don’t have to like FIGHT the person and sometimes you’re lucky and sometimes you’re not but absolutely, yes, on a date especially but even in a relationship women (no matter what they SAY after) like that you physically stood for them (provided you don’t get your shit rocked).
The Pretentious V.D. You are either literally ignorant to the facts or lying... He actually didn't stop what he was doing after they said no. He blocked some co workers from the door wanked in front them without permission then came in a potted plant. It's really embarrassing actually. He probably should have got some help for that a long time ago.
The Pretentious V.D. Soooo what exactly is your point? Because there was more than one accuser you know. Grow up! the guy did something nasty. He needs help. End of!
I agree that How I met your mother, two and half men, big bang style here's a quirky funny guy snappy one liners, canned laughter style shows are mind numbing. However I would be lying if I said I don´t occasionally find them comforting and unchallenging entertainment.
True NPH story which tells you how random showbiz is...I was working on a pilot at CBS that was casting the same time as HIMYM that was far more in demand to actors than it. Neil desperately wanted our show because it was created by very prestigious producers and he tested (auditioned for the network execs) literally right before HIMYM and we had to let his agent know right away he didn’t get ours so he was available to go in for them like 30 minuets later. I mean his agent desperately tried to get him on our show and cancel the HIMYM reading but no, he wasn’t getting our show. He was ice cold in the business and wanted to be on a show (ours) that looked likely to work and would be good for his career. The result: our show failed and was cancelled after 13 episodes, and HIMYM made him incredibly rich, famous and an Emmy winner. Showbiz is literally playing the lottery.
He's right, but then it reminded me 'Lucky Louis' was very phony and unfunny in its own way. Not smarmy collegiate but self-serious community theater sort of way.
God it bugs me listening to old clips of Louis and Jim yammering back and forth under the pretext of being friends, knowing that Louis' entire career got destroyed basically for engaging in the EXACT same kind of perverted fetishes that Jim does in his private life, but simply not being as vocal about it. Meanwhile, Jim won't have Louis on his show anymore; he won't even address it or utter a SINGLE word in Louis' defence. Middle of the road Jimmy sure knows the art of opportunism.
Mikey G - What makes you think Louis didn't have consent? When you ask someone "Are you ok if I..." and they say "Yeah," that's called consent. Louis is in the exact same camp as Jim in terms of being a weird fetishist, yet Jim hasn't had him on his show since the allegations broke, which is infuriating. The way it's looking now, if Louis ever comes back again, it will most likely be 25 years later like Pee-wee Herman.
Brakathor uh, several of them said he didn't, and some of the ones who did said yes initially and then got freaked out and tried to leave, which he then blocked them from doing. Do your fucking homework, jackass. Consent can also be revoked at any time, too. I'm sorry you don't understand the ins and outs of consent.
I like how ridiculous Neil Patrick Harris acts in how I met your mother. I don’t want a silly sitcom to be immersive all the time. Barney is just a chaotic force in the show and that’s what makes him funny. But I see his point
I agree. It’s like eating a meal from Taco Bell as opposed to a nice Mexican meal. Both have their place and can hit just right. I love Louis, but he can be a bit of a snob when it comes to comedy.
@teledoink exactly. I enjoy both Neil patrick harris's comedy as well as Norm Macdonalds comedy. Their humor is wildely different, and i definitely like Norm comedy more in general, but both of their comedic styles make me laugh.
Louis' Great Shunning... judging by the special he just put out, that global level of humiliation gave him wolverine bones. He's the greatest of all time, now
Man i saw him live during this last tour and it was the greatest standup performance ive ever seen. He controlled the energy of the room, you could feel it.
Yeah, Louie went with the mature reaction and his date dried up like a….date. His point stands though, what does she want him to do? Hit minors? She cognitively knows he did the right thing but her biology doesn’t like it, sort of like when a man cries in front of his lady, she will say it makes her happy to feel so close and open with him, but inevitably she dries up because it’s seen as “pathetic” for a man to cry no matter what people say about it being a good thing.
@@_..-.._..-.._ in high school, I had the "gentle giant" thing going on and dated a girl for 5 years who really liked my temperament and patient/quiet personality. But I'll never forget this one time where someone did something she didnt like and i defused the situation in a mutually agreeable way (as was my nature and as i had done in the past) and the rest of the night she festered until she blew up at me for not basically reacting like a violent thug in that situation. Completely blind-sided me that she'd have even wanted me to act that way, let alone just how upset she was that i hadn't acted completely contrary to the fibre of my being. Relationships are weird
@@Loctorak If your girlfriend is ever angry and arguing with someone, NEVER speak unless you're about to come in with the same level of anger at the other person. If you ever try to chill your girlfriend out you will fight about it later. When you save a stranger from your girlfriend's yelling, you are absorbing that yelling for yourself later lmao
HIMYM makes up for poor comic writing with good chemistry between the cast. I never laugh at it but still enjoy it. To me shows like Big Bang Theory and Two and a Half were way bigger culprits of what Louie is referring to.
" with good chemistry between the cast" god the estrogen is pouring out of you. These are lame boring people, you wanna see that kind of chemistry just go to an Ikea on a saturday morning.
The thing is, there are few writers who are capable of putting out entire (or almost entire) episodes of comedy from their head; even Louis took a lot of time to write a shorter season. HIMYM was a fun for what it was like Frasier - it's a farce based on familiar characters like a warm blanket; when it's a show like Louie, you don't know where the jokes lead to. It's also a risk because you're putting it mostly on one person's brain to make the show; HIMYM was good early on but hit a nosedive because writers and scripts changed little by little instead of just one creator shitting the bed.
I need people to stop being emotional sheep and think. (No offense) Some people are into that. If a person, no matter the relationship to me, was attracted to their coworker and maybe had a history of flirting and what not, if that person ask for permission to take it further, I can’t see how that could be offensive. The answer is yes or no. It sounds like he respected their answer. I wish people would use common sense and not emotions all the time. But I guess that’s the simple minded estrogen world we live in. This thread is no longer worth my time.
One of the first examples I saw of what they're speaking of was Clerks. Very astute and flowing conversation. It was great, and to absorb everything being said and going on took more than one viewing. One of the first examples of the awful side of the same coin was Gilmore Girls. No words ever out of place, quick snappy comebacks, but to the point of being completely scripted and unreal. Now, it's an anomaly when a script isn't written in this fashion.
Wow its still going huh. Im going back 15 years ago and in Australia. It was just really me and another mate calling each other and other people keith. He got it from his 3 brothers who use to call their old man keith. I assumed they made it up because my mate was called matt but both parents called him mattie, another brother was ben, both parent used his full name of Benjamin. another brother was called frank, which is just as bad as keith. I thought they were just getting back at him.
My middle name is Keith and I managed to keep it hidden for many years in till I got married and they use your full name in front of everyone you know.
@@rodrigoprata Respect it too much and you end up with the dogshit we have on TV. He's just calling out bad writing practices, along with the differences between writing funny, and actually BEING funny
Please make Louis CK come back. He may be a creep, but the way he sees the world and how funny, twisted and unique is that, makes him valuable and needed. Jordan Peterson called him a philosopher quoting him. Well, in a humorous way, but there something in it. Just like this comment , what else can we do?
I love Louis' comedy and shows, but I really dislike this instinct to pit different artists or styles against one another. Was the world of the show Harris was on elevated in its reality and a little glossy? Sure, but that's the style they chose. They weren't even aiming at the thing Louis is saying he prefers. And guess what? They made a ton of people laugh out loud with their approach to their show. Louis knows that laughs from an audience are honest. Comedy is like a sport. If the audience laughs that means you scored. It doesn't matter if you ran the ball in or threw it. You scored. And no kvetching from someone who thinks you should have scored a different way matters at all. I also find the constant complaints that "people don't talk that way!" to be of very little interest to me. Have you ever listened to the way people actually talk most of the time? It's BORING. Every show is going to be written for something approaching hyper realism or something very unrealistic or something in between, and these are all valid approaches to the work. If you claim that only one approach is valid then you are boring in your approach to art. You do you. Hopefully you will be successful, but other people will be too.
OMG i have had the same opinion on nph. everything he says has a wink and a nod to the audience. "can you believe it's me, doogy howser, saying this?!?!"
Louie ducked up when he made 4million off Horance & Pete without any network help. He was showing ppl how to break away from that old system. I believe he pissed off some powerful ppl & he had to go. Considering he hasn't done anything any worse than 95% of other ppl in showbiz & what he did was ask permission!
My guess is Keith Robinson, he's a comedian, he's black, he's Louis' style, and in this video, he talks about being 'the back of the bus comedian'. czcams.com/video/s58XrBu7mNo/video.html
Louie, start in the moment of the idea and write just that to completion (starting only in the moment). Stories often fill themselves in as you go, just keep going (sometimes the moment is the beginning. Miss you, dude! I'm just a fan (who happens to also write and love your work).
Keith Robinson. Google Louis CK and Keith Robinson: they've done some interviews together, lots of shows together, and there's a few articles I found where he recommends people check Keith's stuff out, so pretty sure it's him.
I think they're both funny in their own ways. I didn't watch himym much, But NPH himself is pretty funny. Also Louis is Hilarious as well, sorta surpsied he wouldn't find nph funny one way or another, but it's subjective I suppose. Seems he got caught doing something a little unsavory. Well, he apologized...and I think he's smart enough to realize his mistakes. I don't think he should be done forever. I'm sure he'll be around soon enough. Time seems to heal all wounds, and create indifference as well.
Total vapid nonsense - along with Big Bang, Two Broke Girls, that Charlie Sheen show... horrible wastes of time that are pushed on network as “funny” and “comedy”. Filler GARBAGE. I’ve been forced to watch several eps of Big Bang at realitives houses, and Jesus Christ, they weren’t funny in about the slightest.
I think most of the comments for this are missing the point of this video. Whether or not you liked NPH as an actor (I for one think he's incredibly charismatic), the problem CK has with most sitcoms is their lack of sincerity and realistic dialogue, which he believes has to do with most people who write comedy as a "craft" not actually being funny. I don't think that he's inherently saying he's better- that's not really his point. He made his show to give a contrast to most of what he'd been seeing on tv. And you know what? Since Louie came out, a lot of tv shows have gotten better in terms of sincerity and attention to detail.

The kicker and obvious thing is that the plots and the jokes have nothing in common. Unlike Louis's shows where the plot is the direct source of the humor.
It's 2022 and Louis is making a comeback.
He's doing things differently and on a smaller scale,
But he's funnier than ever.
This is what happens when a decent person fucks up,
They learn from their mistakes.
I'd say that the people whose careers got stomped while he and his boys were covering up all the non-consensual sexual advances, would object to the word "decent".
And what kills me about him getting a pass and his accusers still being called liars and opportunists by his fans to this day, is that I don't think he's even that funny. But that's just me, I get it.
What still hasn’t been made clear is what happened? Does anyone really know? Or are accusations as a good as fact now?

Man that Louie Bully episode, I saw that as a kid and it stuck with me forever.
You don’t have to like FIGHT the person and sometimes you’re lucky and sometimes you’re not but absolutely, yes, on a date especially but even in a relationship women (no matter what they SAY after) like that you physically stood for them (provided you don’t get your shit rocked).
Miss Louis... I mean come on. He asked. Lol
Yea but didn't everyone say no and then he did it anyway and came into a pot plant. That's gross and weird!
Double Guitars no. When they said no he admitted he had a problem, got depressed and walked away. Why ask me? Just take 2 mins to read some articles
The Pretentious V.D. You are either literally ignorant to the facts or lying... He actually didn't stop what he was doing after they said no. He blocked some co workers from the door wanked in front them without permission then came in a potted plant. It's really embarrassing actually. He probably should have got some help for that a long time ago.

I never watched Neil’s tv show but he was hilarious in the Harold and kumar movies
I agree that How I met your mother, two and half men, big bang style here's a quirky funny guy snappy one liners, canned laughter style shows are mind numbing. However I would be lying if I said I don´t occasionally find them comforting and unchallenging entertainment.
extremetee That style of character seems derived straight from Chandler Bing.
@@Charliefox71 OMG he was patient zero for this bullshit.
True NPH story which tells you how random showbiz is...I was working on a pilot at CBS that was casting the same time as HIMYM that was far more in demand to actors than it. Neil desperately wanted our show because it was created by very prestigious producers and he tested (auditioned for the network execs) literally right before HIMYM and we had to let his agent know right away he didn’t get ours so he was available to go in for them like 30 minuets later. I mean his agent desperately tried to get him on our show and cancel the HIMYM reading but no, he wasn’t getting our show. He was ice cold in the business and wanted to be on a show (ours) that looked likely to work and would be good for his career. The result: our show failed and was cancelled after 13 episodes, and HIMYM made him incredibly rich, famous and an Emmy winner. Showbiz is literally playing the lottery.
yo where's the rest of the clip? that conversation was getting better some how
look up Jim Norton interviews Louis CK
Every year without a season of LOUIE is a bad year.
Louie I hope you put a comedy album on your website you gotta be one of my favourite comedians
louie ck best comic of our generation for me
He's right, but then it reminded me 'Lucky Louis' was very phony and unfunny in its own way. Not smarmy collegiate but self-serious community theater sort of way.
Lol yeah I think even Louis would admit that Lucky Louie was shit. But his shows afterwards with Louie and Horace & Pete were total opposite!
I Agree and obviously he learned from that experience, this is why he’s jizzing knowledge about this topic
God it bugs me listening to old clips of Louis and Jim yammering back and forth under the pretext of being friends, knowing that Louis' entire career got destroyed basically for engaging in the EXACT same kind of perverted fetishes that Jim does in his private life, but simply not being as vocal about it. Meanwhile, Jim won't have Louis on his show anymore; he won't even address it or utter a SINGLE word in Louis' defence. Middle of the road Jimmy sure knows the art of opportunism.
As Patrice once said, Norton takes the shape of whatever container you pour him into.
Uh...you realize that Norton gets consent for his fetishes, right?
Mikey G - What makes you think Louis didn't have consent? When you ask someone "Are you ok if I..." and they say "Yeah," that's called consent. Louis is in the exact same camp as Jim in terms of being a weird fetishist, yet Jim hasn't had him on his show since the allegations broke, which is infuriating. The way it's looking now, if Louis ever comes back again, it will most likely be 25 years later like Pee-wee Herman.
Brakathor uh, several of them said he didn't, and some of the ones who did said yes initially and then got freaked out and tried to leave, which he then blocked them from doing. Do your fucking homework, jackass. Consent can also be revoked at any time, too. I'm sorry you don't understand the ins and outs of consent.
Brakathor you are the worst. You know exactly what you're doing and you know it's wrong, yet here you fucking are.
THANK YOU
I like how ridiculous Neil Patrick Harris acts in how I met your mother. I don’t want a silly sitcom to be immersive all the time. Barney is just a chaotic force in the show and that’s what makes him funny. But I see his point
I agree. It’s like eating a meal from Taco Bell as opposed to a nice Mexican meal. Both have their place and can hit just right. I love Louis, but he can be a bit of a snob when it comes to comedy.
@teledoink exactly. I enjoy both Neil patrick harris's comedy as well as Norm Macdonalds comedy. Their humor is wildely different, and i definitely like Norm comedy more in general, but both of their comedic styles make me laugh.
Louis' Great Shunning... judging by the special he just put out, that global level of humiliation gave him wolverine bones. He's the greatest of all time, now
Man i saw him live during this last tour and it was the greatest standup performance ive ever seen. He controlled the energy of the room, you could feel it.
Chappell just dropped a new show.
The world did Louis a favor with they shunned him.
Neil Patrick Harris is funny in Harold and Kumar, but it's because of the writing.
This was great.
Lol as i was listening to this i opened the TV and ofc who i see first but Neil Patrick Harris on "How i met your mother" :D
Oh man, I was on a date once and got picked on by some young kids. That episode hit too close to home.
Yeah, Louie went with the mature reaction and his date dried up like a….date. His point stands though, what does she want him to do? Hit minors? She cognitively knows he did the right thing but her biology doesn’t like it, sort of like when a man cries in front of his lady, she will say it makes her happy to feel so close and open with him, but inevitably she dries up because it’s seen as “pathetic” for a man to cry no matter what people say about it being a good thing.
@@_..-.._..-.._ in high school, I had the "gentle giant" thing going on and dated a girl for 5 years who really liked my temperament and patient/quiet personality. But I'll never forget this one time where someone did something she didnt like and i defused the situation in a mutually agreeable way (as was my nature and as i had done in the past) and the rest of the night she festered until she blew up at me for not basically reacting like a violent thug in that situation. Completely blind-sided me that she'd have even wanted me to act that way, let alone just how upset she was that i hadn't acted completely contrary to the fibre of my being.
Relationships are weird
@@Loctorak If your girlfriend is ever angry and arguing with someone, NEVER speak unless you're about to come in with the same level of anger at the other person. If you ever try to chill your girlfriend out you will fight about it later. When you save a stranger from your girlfriend's yelling, you are absorbing that yelling for yourself later lmao
@@LoctorakRelationships are weird because people are essentially quite primitive, and complex dynamics reveal that nature.
I really miss Louis making content. I hope things turn around with time and he slowly makes more content, even another season of Louie or something.
wishes come true
@@diamondmine9773 LMAO
I would say there are exceptions to this that are genuinely brilliant and well executed. Letterkenny and House being two
What episode of O&A is this from? Am trying to track it down, but no luck.
HIMYM makes up for poor comic writing with good chemistry between the cast. I never laugh at it but still enjoy it. To me shows like Big Bang Theory and Two and a Half were way bigger culprits of what Louie is referring to.
" with good chemistry between the cast" god the estrogen is pouring out of you. These are lame boring people, you wanna see that kind of chemistry just go to an Ikea on a saturday morning.
The thing is, there are few writers who are capable of putting out entire (or almost entire) episodes of comedy from their head; even Louis took a lot of time to write a shorter season. HIMYM was a fun for what it was like Frasier - it's a farce based on familiar characters like a warm blanket; when it's a show like Louie, you don't know where the jokes lead to.
It's also a risk because you're putting it mostly on one person's brain to make the show; HIMYM was good early on but hit a nosedive because writers and scripts changed little by little instead of just one creator shitting the bed.
God Bless you
this is the best interview in the world
Come back Louie ❤️
Oh my, someone got rapped 😱!?!? That’s crazy. Tell me, who was forced to have sexual intercourse without consent?
He asked for permission. What a monster 😑😒
I need people to stop being emotional sheep and think. (No offense) Some people are into that. If a person, no matter the relationship to me, was attracted to their coworker and maybe had a history of flirting and what not, if that person ask for permission to take it further, I can’t see how that could be offensive. The answer is yes or no. It sounds like he respected their answer. I wish people would use common sense and not emotions all the time. But I guess that’s the simple minded estrogen world we live in. This thread is no longer worth my time.
harooni22 yes.. it is okay
Poor Louie, asking permission to jerk off in front of ladies and being treated like serial rapist bill cosby... And he is not jewish... he's a mexican
One of the first examples I saw of what they're speaking of was Clerks. Very astute and flowing conversation. It was great, and to absorb everything being said and going on took more than one viewing. One of the first examples of the awful side of the same coin was Gilmore Girls. No words ever out of place, quick snappy comebacks, but to the point of being completely scripted and unreal. Now, it's an anomaly when a script isn't written in this fashion.
Love to see this guy again.
"theres not a science to it it's just a bullshit craft" HAHAHA
The name Keith always cracks me up. We use to use it in high school as an insult. Your mate trips on something …. "watch were your going Keith"
Wow its still going huh. Im going back 15 years ago and in Australia. It was just really me and another mate calling each other and other people keith. He got it from his 3 brothers who use to call their old man keith. I assumed they made it up because my mate was called matt but both parents called him mattie, another brother was ben, both parent used his full name of Benjamin. another brother was called frank, which is just as bad as keith. I thought they were just getting back at him.
Voidaken Is it because of the family guy bit about it being the least sexy name in the English language?
OneStauffder Sirynch we used it in 1999. Before family guy. This could turn into a documentary. How far back does this unique insult go?
My middle name is Keith and I managed to keep it hidden for many years in till I got married and they use your full name in front of everyone you know.
Can't deny this was a funny thread.. We used to make jokes on Keith too... And it was 20yrs ago... in Canada!
0:51 is the Neil Patrick Harris bit
I was pouring hot tea and laughed so hard at 3:44, almost poured hot tea all over myself.
YESS YESSS YESSSS.
I always thought the exact same thing but a lot of people disagree
Not to mention Jim fuking parson, the single unfunniest actor to ever work in comedy, winning comedy awards and hosting SNL.
Mos'ab abumarzouk I can't agree more. Worse than HIMYM.
Preach
Jim Parsons is too good for that show. Watch him in The Normal Heart to really see how wasted his talent is on Big Bang.
I think Parsons is a good actor, and some of his choices on TBBT are hilarious.
Nah, he is great.
Why so many dislikes? This is actually very interesting to listen, there's a lot of truth in it
I hope it's people who are annoyed that the clip is cut off so early.
Because even though I think he is a very smart guy, he does seen to not respect the craft of screenwriting that much. He sounds a little bit butthurt.
It’s no that many dislikes cmon now
Probably the video quality being straight up dogshit
@@rodrigoprata Respect it too much and you end up with the dogshit we have on TV. He's just calling out bad writing practices, along with the differences between writing funny, and actually BEING funny
Quiet class, the master of the craft is talking.
I learned so much from this clip
Please make Louis CK come back. He may be a creep, but the way he sees the world and how funny, twisted and unique is that, makes him valuable and needed. Jordan Peterson called him a philosopher quoting him. Well, in a humorous way, but there something in it. Just like this comment , what else can we do?
Plenty of other people like LCK who havent jerked it in front of random ppl lol this guy sucks
He isn't a creep.
I love Louis' comedy and shows, but I really dislike this instinct to pit different artists or styles against one another. Was the world of the show Harris was on elevated in its reality and a little glossy? Sure, but that's the style they chose. They weren't even aiming at the thing Louis is saying he prefers. And guess what? They made a ton of people laugh out loud with their approach to their show.
Louis knows that laughs from an audience are honest. Comedy is like a sport. If the audience laughs that means you scored. It doesn't matter if you ran the ball in or threw it. You scored. And no kvetching from someone who thinks you should have scored a different way matters at all.
I also find the constant complaints that "people don't talk that way!" to be of very little interest to me. Have you ever listened to the way people actually talk most of the time? It's BORING. Every show is going to be written for something approaching hyper realism or something very unrealistic or something in between, and these are all valid approaches to the work. If you claim that only one approach is valid then you are boring in your approach to art. You do you. Hopefully you will be successful, but other people will be too.
Love Louie. But he's wrong. NPH is great in what he does. Just different style
0:15 The (UK) Office was such a nice break from that.
I didn’t see that episode with the bully, but I picture the actor who plays Suzy on Curb being the person with that voice haha
OMG i have had the same opinion on nph. everything he says has a wink and a nod to the audience. "can you believe it's me, doogy howser, saying this?!?!"
My girlfriend is a comedienne, I told her I love Louis CK, she said Me Too
I feel like I've heard that one but hell that's funny
xD. Belly laughed
Johnny Kage damn
he said the thing guys, its a reference i understand! Funny!
youre cool
What an absolutely perfect sound bite for a lesson in writing!!! Rename it!
this is really making sense even in my own country Kenya
I don't care where, how or at who Louis comes, I just want him to come back
Louie ducked up when he made 4million off Horance & Pete without any network help. He was showing ppl how to break away from that old system. I believe he pissed off some powerful ppl & he had to go. Considering he hasn't done anything any worse than 95% of other ppl in showbiz & what he did was ask permission!
Bingo. He also talked on Opie and Anthony about how he was becoming more independent with his stand up in the business sense.
What show is Louis CK talking about with the episode of the bully and the catholic episode?
I feel like it applies to a lot of people in general. Always certain that they know it all & won't listen to anyone that says otherwise.
Who is Louis' friend Keith he describes as being in the back of the bus? (I cried laughing when he said that btw)
Anyone know Keith's last name?
My guess is Keith Robinson, he's a comedian, he's black, he's Louis' style, and in this video, he talks about being 'the back of the bus comedian'. czcams.com/video/s58XrBu7mNo/video.html
it is keith robinson
Matthew Perry is basically what NPH wants to be
Dead?
Love hearing Louie talk shop.
He should talk about how he pulled his dick out in front of people. THAT I would love to hear!!
What episode is this, can someone help me find it this seems very valuable
In terms of phony dialogues i think nothing beats "New Girl" with Zooey Deschanel.
Can’t stand that show. I don’t see how people can enjoy it. I guess most people are just that brainless.
@@DisposableSupervillainHenchman Not all comedy needs to be “intelligent”
Something must be wrong when a Nickelodeon sitcom (Drake and Josh) is genuinely more entertaining than most modern “grown-up” sitcoms.
Nah, you’re 12.
Also, speaking of grown up, Josh was a grown-up talking to/doing things to underage girls.
Jim is great. I believe he knows more, asking questions makes him great.
Louis CK GOAT Stand up!
Louie, start in the moment of the idea and write just that to completion (starting only in the moment). Stories often fill themselves in as you go, just keep going (sometimes the moment is the beginning. Miss you, dude! I'm just a fan (who happens to also write and love your work).
Is he back yet? Damn i miss Him :((
He's not coming back it's been a year you don't hear his name anywhere unless it's in reference to what he did
Was this video hidden for a while?
I remember not being able to find it.
Louie: “there’s no method to doing comedy. Anyway, here’s my method.”
keith who?
Keith Robinson. Google Louis CK and Keith Robinson: they've done some interviews together, lots of shows together, and there's a few articles I found where he recommends people check Keith's stuff out, so pretty sure it's him.
I love Louis CK and hope he gets back in the business... but... NPH is fucking hilarious. 😀🍹🇵🇭
When was he hilarious?
In his gay show or the other gay show he is in. St Fu!
100% agreement about Neil P. Harris.
OMFG exactly 👍👍👍
I think they're both funny in their own ways. I didn't watch himym much, But NPH himself is pretty funny. Also Louis is Hilarious as well, sorta surpsied he wouldn't find nph funny one way or another, but it's subjective I suppose. Seems he got caught doing something a little unsavory. Well, he apologized...and I think he's smart enough to realize his mistakes. I don't think he should be done forever. I'm sure he'll be around soon enough. Time seems to heal all wounds, and create indifference as well.
Nothing against the actors of HIMYM but I couldn't stand that fucking show :(
it was a steaming pile of shit, the main guy with the fucking bed head hairdo should have never been allowed to be on tv.
Total vapid nonsense - along with Big Bang, Two Broke Girls, that Charlie Sheen show... horrible wastes of time that are pushed on network as “funny” and “comedy”. Filler GARBAGE. I’ve been forced to watch several eps of Big Bang at realitives houses, and Jesus Christ, they weren’t funny in about the slightest.
Eh, it had it's moments and it's dry spots...
but I'm not and uppity self entitled douche with a dick permanently lodged in my ass, so what do I know.
That's not what your Tinder profile says!
Fridgemusa I know, everything about it sounded like a gdamn lame ass laugh track. The show sucked.
Love this guy!!! No HOMO :)))
he nails it here
I think most of the comments for this are missing the point of this video. Whether or not you liked NPH as an actor (I for one think he's incredibly charismatic), the problem CK has with most sitcoms is their lack of sincerity and realistic dialogue, which he believes has to do with most people who write comedy as a "craft" not actually being funny. I don't think that he's inherently saying he's better- that's not really his point. He made his show to give a contrast to most of what he'd been seeing on tv. And you know what? Since Louie came out, a lot of tv shows have gotten better in terms of sincerity and attention to detail.
This dude is the auteur Jerry Lewis always thought he was--and minus Jerry's offscreen pomposity.
Hopefully Louie makes something as off key as a clown in a holocaust camp lol, sadly I think he is past that
@@AlexG-xl1cci love you daddy was pretty off key...
what episode is this?
I agree so much with this. I'm glad anyone had the guts to say it.
