Featuring wild swings in tone, Louis C.K.’s deeply personal, frequently melancholy vision of life opens with what amounts to a mini-masterpiece of awkwardness, then proceeds to deal with his ongoing peculiar romance, a troubled friend and finally an unexpected encounter that’s both raw and disturbing. Almost nothing else on TV--certainly in half-hour form--rivals the particularity of C.K.’s approach.

The new season is a more straightforward affair over all, reminiscent in tone and structure of the show’s brilliantly mordant first three years.... As Louis C.K. reinvents the classic sitcom in his own elliptical, cerebral style, he seems to be in his absurdist theater phase, or his surrealist short-story phase--Kafka on the Hudson. (Louis C.K. still writes, directs and edits every episode.) At that level of ambition, some things work and some don’t.

Louis C.K continues to prove that Louie is the best comedy right now. The writing is sharp as always and even more honest than before. There are a lot of everyday problem in our society that is smartly written into half hour comedy show.

I was tempted to give it a 9 because the first 4 seasons might technically be better, but if this isn't a 10, what could possibly be? Very intimate, very human, and you might actually laugh out loud. Louie CK is a gift. Laugh at him and laugh with him.

Michael Rapaport's performance in episode 2 is truly extraordinary. Louis C.K. finds that sweet spot once again between the absurd and the heartbreaking. It wasn't a "funny" episode, but it was a great piece of writing and acting.

Louie still got it. The first episode pot luck is outstanding and one of the best episodes of Louie in a long time. It's weird but it's hilarious and bizarre you won't regret watching Louie.
