It's why most people don't care about movie reviews anymore. People feel disconnected with critics, and I suppose it is because critics care too much about the area in which they write criticism. It's more than entertainment to critics. Louie is a perfect example. It doesn't get great ratings. People wish it was funnier, that it was more comedy-driven. But many critics think it's a top 3 show on TV. They aren't trying to be contrarian. Their tastes no longer match the general public. Both approaches towards tv or film or etc. are totally valid, even if people from one approach hate people who take the other approach. |

I've seen discussion on other forums about the differences between invested viewers and relaxation viewers. The lament is that some TV programming has become so good that it's no longer a veg-out pastime. So there's still a sizable contingent of the viewing public who opt for the familiarity of L&O and CSI, or watch the 'good' shows for the explosions or slapstick.

Kansas City is the worst city is North America, and that includes Mexico and Canada.
LOL

Yeah, WTF Louie? I used to think he just had to pick a random city, and KC was the unlucky choice, but he was pretty specific... "Stanford and Sons"

Not the first time Louie has blasted KC:

He must have had a really bad experience in KC or something.

You have to watch his bit about getting high in Kansas City. It's hilarious. Also, he said in a Reddit Q&A thingy that he likes Kansas City, but "loves shitting on it on live TV for some reason."
"So I'm driving on this highway in Missouri, and I suddenly realize... I think it's been about 20 minutes since I looked out the front window of this car." |

Daddy's Girlfriend 1 & 2 were really amazing. Parker Posey played a perfect crazy lady. And Louie played it up perfectly in that he knew she was crazy, but was having so much fun he couldn't really fault her for being crazy. I just really enjoyed the whole dynamic they had going there.
