I've been avoiding it because I saw him talking about his divorce in his stand up and found him to be unpleasantly angry and bitter and not terribly funny, and I was a little concerned that an entire show about him being divorced would be like that.

Not sure what you found offensive, though.I didn't say I personally found any of it offensive. Just thought that a simple warning about the adult/sexual content and strong language was in order for the easily offended.
I should have written, "I'm not sure what you may have seen that one may find offensive, though"

Just watched the shows on my DVR last night and thought the show was great. Thought the framework was very similar to Seinfeld, only a lot darker. Looking forward to the rest of the season.

Hmmm, this is inspiring me to give them another shot. I wasn't entertained at all by the first two episodes. Maybe I'm just not the right audience though.

I LOVE Louis CK! I thought the first episode of Louie was great, but the second (aside from the poker scene opening) fell flat. Haven't seen last night's yet, but I enjoyed the show enough to keep watching. Definitely not for those who don't like their humor (very) dark.

I love what he said about the divorce! like being in a time machine, only it takes the real amount of time to get there. his divorce pops up, but that's not really what the stories are about.

Does "dark" mean that he's still really angry about the divorce?I agree that he does seem a little angry these days, yes. His stuff has always been fairly dark though. For example, that bit about your soul mate dying being the best case scenario has been in his stand-up for awhile.

I like Louis CK. The first 2 episodes were ok, with flashes of awesome. The 3rd episode sealed it for me. The doctors office portion was painfully funny. When the doctor explains how his dad’s death was less painful to see than Louis’ penis.
It is the same as his standup. If you cant relate to being frustrated with your aging self and the annoyances of daily life the show may not be for you.It got picked up for 13 episodes.
