Great episode, much funnier than last week's. The way Louie said
Spoiler:
Well, I don't really want to do that

was the hardest I've laughed at anything in quite a while.

I was underwhelmed by the premiere, but this episode more than made up for it. I loved how the entire truck scene was basically one of his daughter's jokes.

I think that was the raunchiest thing I've ever seen on commercial television...

So... did Louie lick her asshole?

Dang, 0-2 for me. I thought it was a "pleasant" enough episode, up until the end of course, and that just pretty much turned me off. imo comparing it to his daughter's nonsense is a bit of a stretch. She was just drunk and crazy.

Maybe I'll see it in a different light in the future but I didn't enjoy it.

Louis has pretty much said that FX lets him do whatever he wants and the only censorship is bleeping of the f and c word (and no frontal nudity)

Pretty sure whatever the worst possible scenario there could be is what happens to Louie.

So yes. He did.

And he still gave her a grand for it.

Plus, big picture he broke up with a perfectly nice woman who cared for him after wrecking on his bike and traded her in for something casual with a psychopath who threatened to break a finger if he didn't sexually please her. Yep, that's about par for the course for Louie.

I agree. The daughter stuff seemed very self-indulgent, we get it Louie, your girls say some crazy stuff, not breaking any new ground there.

The stuff in the truck was decent but came off more uncomfortable than funny.

I'd say 0-2 as well which is really disappointing because every episode last year was a home run. I read a review that the Parker Posey episode is supposed to be amazing so I still have my hopes up.

When she smashed Louie's head into the window - I jumped! that was unexpected.. but the "strap on the feedbag" line had me going

The whole pickup scene was hilarious. The window/head smash was funny and unexpected.

I also liked the daughter's joke.

That seems like a bit of hyperbole there. I think Louie is my favorite show on TV, but it still has its share of misses (Halloween and Pregnant come to mind), which makes it that much more entertaining when it hits dead-on.

And I'll take two-three minutes every three weeks of Louie's kids now over the annoying-as-sh!t kid that was all over the Lucky Louie show.

Which she'll have to turn around and spend (in part) to replace the broken car window. Even if she can convince the insurance company to cover it, I'm sure her deductible is around $500.

Classic appearance from Leo.

I liked this episode and though it was probably one of the best shows in the series so far.

Jesus... just watched this last night. I laughed so hard I pee'd a little bit. Loved the bit with his daughters and their jokes. Only a parent would understand/appreciate that bit.

I was dying throughout that whole episode, even during the dinner. Let's see another Oscar winner pull that off.
