Action Potential

I must have seen this when it first aired in 1995 because just watching it now, I realized it was from this set that I’ve been repeating Louis CK’s bit about “God running out of extras in the movie of your life.” Eesh, I’m a hack and didn’t know it! Then again, I guess that’s how memorable Louis CK has always been.

Louie CK’s first appearance on Letterman, 1995

Referenced on last night’s Louie (with a young Louie portrayed confusingly by a kid who looks less like Louie in ‘95 (anybody else see some Fincher in there?) and more like Ham from The Sandlot.

Louie, from this point in his career, shows every bit of the brilliance he does now. And still, it’s refreshing to see him tell one of the worst hacky 90s jokes ever written, at the very end of his set. Still figuring shit out. Just like the rest of us.

    It’s weird to see him with hair and his jokes were different, but he becomes more current

    I just LOVE HIM. I love him even more that he’s bald and fat. And he’d understand that.
