History YMMV / LouisCK

-->"One time I was at school, and I was volunteering at recess. It's something that you do if you're a good parent, about once a month you go to school, and you just stand there, and you watch recess, masturbate, whatever you wanna do."

** After the news came out that Louis has [[ADateWithRosiePalms masturbated]] in front of numerous unwilling women in the industry, many of his jokes relating to perversion and his habits seem less harmless than they once did. For instance:

* TearJerker: Louis C.K. was invited to deliver the final speech on during a tribute to Creator/GeorgeCarlin in March 2010. In it, he describes the impact Carlin has had on his career and life, and even though it starts off rather funny, his own emotional distress becomes more and more obvious towards the end. What drives it home, however, is when he apologizes to the audience for [[SadClown not being able to close funny even though he is supposed to]] before bidding farewell.

* GrowingTheBeard: Literally and figuratively. His [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0O2fNO2AZyU&feature=related early stand-up]] when he was young and cleanshaven was mostly absurdist and less personal. In a podcast interview with fellow comedian Creator/MarcMaron, he says his stand up began to change after he got married and had kids, and his material began reflecting his real life.

** His career seems to have slowly recovered after his 2020 special ''Sincerely Louis C.K.'' was released to mostly positive reviews. Time will tell if the public will be ready to give him a chance at [[CareerResurrection a full career comeback]].
