Did anyone here actually check out the show? I'm a big fan of Louie but from the screenshots it looked like a dull Cheers rip.
>>
>>68208986
It's the best thing he's ever done imo. While there does seem to be inspiration from Cheers, it's more focused on being uncompromisingly depressing in it's portrayal of things like alcoholism, meanness and mental illness, more similar to The Iceman Cometh and Arthur Miller type stuff.

i refuse debt atm

but i think its a different feeling of debt to a company than to a friend or family member

i think theyre comfortable defaulting in the former situation

i just hate the idea of making regular payments for some shit. id rather save up and buy it in one fell swoop.

>Horace and Pete
You can tell it's dull just from the title. He probably pitched it to a bunch of studios and no one would touch it. Who the hell is gonna pay to watch it on his website?
>>
I have literally never heard of this show til the debt news, was there any advertising or hype to build it up before release?
>>
>>68209734
not really, 'Louis' is much more of a comedy, especially with how it incorporates his standup, and is focused on his point of view of the world. Horace and Pete takes a much more "objective" lens
>>
>>68209815
idiots. Idiots always pay. He should have thought harder before commuting so hard to it.

Guess we are getting the next season of louie a lot sooner than we thought!

From the beginning he wanted to release this on his own with no studio involvement. It may be "dull" to some but it's honestly way more exciting to watch and creative than the latest capeshit or Star Wars flick that gets memed around here repeatedly

Debt moves our economy, it's all about taking chances and making it big. America gives you the opportunity to try again, and again, and again.
And not get jailed over a small debt.

It was pretty much always like this. Just because some liberal-arts college kids are screaming about irrelevant things on Twitter doesn't mean most people care or let them change their views. The right is just getting a bit more vocal.

i accidentally stumbled on it when reading his wiki page

guess how many people dont read cks wiki page? 99.99999999999999%
>>
>>68209993
If I remember correctly, USA may be the last place where you CAN in fact be jailed for debt, if you owe to the state or your ex wife.
You can owe to institutions or people, just not your ex wife or the government.

He makes $20 million a year and owns 3 yachts. He would only need to take out a loan if he planned on the show failing so he could write off the losses.

That's the only clip of Horace and Pete that I've seen and it's fucking terrible. The fact that someone titled it "Best Scene" doesn't give me high hopes for the rest of the show. I don't even want to pirate it.

You guys don't know what financial success does to creative people. It was never about the money. Its about standing on stage and making someone laugh. Having that control over someone is everything for them. When you get to the point where you have money and dont have to perform it makes it impossible for some to write.

Its like a Gambler. The excitement that you might win while putting everything on the line is everything. When Gamblers win they are miserable soon after.

Louie is about to ho back on the road and he will write some of the best stuff he has ever written. The problem is this may follow him around and bring out the hecklers.

Went 7 years withou debt.
Savings destroyed after poor investments.
Took a holiday with savings I had left.
Spent more than I intended and started using the credit card

A year on and I haven't come close to paying it off. Been an alcoholic, spending too much and living pay cheque to pay cheque. It's so hard to shake. I feel trapped.

2 million in debt is nothing.. maybe he took out a $2 million mortgage and doesn't want to pay cash for it

he makes enough that his debt is manageable

For a celebrity of Louis CK's stature, $2 million in debt is nothing.

I don't make nearly as much as he does i'm sure, and i could get a $1,250,000 mortgage easily and then i'd be $1.25 million in debt

He's "2 million in debt" because he put that towards a show that hasn't generated that money back. He isn't 2 million negative in the bank, he just lost 2 million on a a investment that hasn't made his money back(but still has a chance to given he put this info out there which will pull in some suckers to buy all episodes).

that is literally the most confusing looking price schedule ive ever seen for a tv series

i get making them pay a lot for the first episode, cause if they stop there at least you got a big purchase

is the 2nd ep discounted to encourage watching it and then if theyve seen 2 they might watch more

and the rest are slightly more if theyve been induced into watching it

and the package is cheaper overall to encourage a lumpsum purchase
>>
>>68217145
pure comedy is looked over these days now people want something with added comedy
like capeshit
>>
>>68217548
It's all risk and reward - he took a risk self funding, but the upside if it's successful is that he makes almost all of that money himself without having to pay studios & distributors

he should do some real marketing though instead of this

posting about the debt triggers my guilt-trip sensor, which is a turnoff imo

Doesn't matter if you are 15 trillion in debt, if you have 50 trillion in assets.

Because people will buy the first to see if they like it, and if they don't they wont be buying the rest.
Basically it is certain to be a bestseller, might as well make the extra buck from haters.

This definitely featured some advertising on news channels, I saw it brought up on Today when it was announced. That was generic pop culture news though so he didn't pay for it or anything. I think the problem is they weren't going to talk about it after the initial first episode came out, him going on Stern is basically his start of the second round of marketing for it now that it's complete.

>i know literally nothing about marketing: the post
marketing can cost between 100,000 to 1,000,000 depending on how long you want the marketing to go on
interviews are only given to people who are known to produce popular stuff, it's why you don't see indie directors getting interviews every 3 days
also the magazine would be taking a risk since they wouldn't know if the show fits their target demographic
and talk shows don't work like that, you have to be invited to the show you can't just call them up and demand that they put you on it
