It's the best series in comedy genre, period. It's authenticity is such that sitcoms could never achieve. Louie is not an actor but he doesn't need to act to portray his life. There are some shows around that focus on regular folks, their up and downs, their daily struggle but I seriously believe Louie's daily life could give them nose bleed.
Talking strictly about show the characters are original because they are. All his friend are stand-up comedians, so their conversation is equivalent to a Netflix special. Talk about Louie's kids, neighbors or his doctor (Ricky Gervais) are just treat to watch on different levels. I cannot stress on "AUTHENTICITY" of the subject matter. It's like traveling with Louis C.K. around and just watch him do his stuff and it's great.
I think I lived Louis' life through this amazing series. Truly something valuable.
