The show is called, "Louie" Not Louis

If he'd gone with a large company they'd have taken a huge chunk out first, leaving him with only a fraction of what he made here.
I can't believe you just used Dane Cook and comedian in the same sentence. Unless you, yourself, are trying to be comedic. If so, I must admit you appear more talented than Dane Cook.
whats more ironic about him comparing him to Dane Cook is that Dane Cook as been directly accused of stealing tons of Louis CKs material!
....saw Dane Cook last time he came through here and it was fucking hilarious, and I hadn't heard any of the bits he did that night.
Most likely the shopping cart, PayPal tie ins, etc.It makes sense, but they're cutting out the most important people - the labels/studios! If the artists fail to utilize such people, then the executives can't afford their Bentley's and million-dollar houses! Why doesn't Louis think of these other people instead of wrongfully screwing them out of a life of riches. This is wrong.
I like the idea, it's too bad things like this don't catch on.
Although, I'm still trying to figure out why he paid $32k for that website ...
Still, give me Bill Hicks any day.
Already your judgement is suspect.
Kidding aside, Dane's early stuff was funny (in low doses). He just got too big, too fast and started cranked out garbage as a result. That's my theory, anyway.

My take is a lot of times what makes a person funny to other people is perception. Its his popularity I think that makes people dislike him, not his ability to make people laugh or not.
Also, I think the fact that he is not a traditional comedian in the way he delivers his jokes makes some other comedians dislike him.
One of my favorites though is Jim Gaffigan, there is almost nobody that can be as funny as Gaffigan without being vulgar.
I think his show is boring, but I agree that Thuleman is either being sarcastic or somehow oblivious to Louis C.K. Best part is, I don't think Louis had even begun his publicity campaign yet judging by the AMA he did on reddit.
Did someone really not know about CK and Dane? Seriously. If you are unaware, there is a big ole shitstorm about Dane "stealing" some of CKs material. Happens a lot but when Cook blew up like he did, made a lot of comedians butt hurt jealous.
CK is widely acknowledged as a very top tier stand up by other comedians. Smart guy btw. Hard, hard worker too. You have to be to do as much as he does.
Respect!

This part bothers me
This is less than I would have been paid by a large company to simply perform the show and let them sell it to you, but they would have charged you about $20 for the video.
So he earned less money than what a studio will give him. So studio gives him over 200k for 2 shows? Wow.
Steve, I strongly suggest you investigate Loius CK a bit more. If you don't find him funny, you're probably Taliban.

That's one way to drum up publicity when otherwise no one has even heard of you before. Nice marketing ploy.
He made slightly less doing this than a big studio would have paid him
