@Whtvrdude

i was 14 in 97 and i remember by the time Daria came out MTV was already changing and shows like Daria were the remains of the slacker generation of the beginning of the 90's

I watched Doug too but i was never a big fan of the show

Wow - halfway through the second season and I'm LOVING this.

So many funny characters - the Gervais cameos are some of his best stuff in years I think.

I recently started watching Louie as well and i like that not every moment on that show has to be funny, there is a scene in season 1 where a kid bullies Louie on a dinner and that scene was very memorable for me even though it wasn't funny..

i like he is doing that, he's not just going for cheap laughs he is just trying to create interesting moments whether they are funny or not.

Totally agree.

It's capable of being very evocative as well as funny. Definitely not just a simple comedy show, and it can be quite brutally honest too, as well as quite surreal.

It's my first exposure to this guy (Louie C.K.) in any way, and he lives up to the hype in my opinion.
