I don't really get the speech at the end, is she complaining that people find her fixable shortcomings unattractive? Also I don't buy the whole it's worse to be a fat woman than a fat man thing, literally every fatty fat dude under 30 I've known has been a virgin and had pretty much no chance with women ever, but I've known plenty of girls that looked like her and they didn't have too much trouble dating.

I wonder what the statistics on relative fatness between men and women are like in america. My town may be weird but I see fat girls with thin guys all the time, same with relatively in shape dudes but I very rarely see it the other way around.

Yeah the point fell flat for me because it's not like she's some kind of genetically deformed monster. She just needs to lose some weight. She's not heinously overweight. Imagine how loving great it would be if you could DRASTICALLY improve your life by skipping dessert and working out for 6 months.

Thin privilege is being at or near the peak of your potential and knowing no matter how hard you work, things can't get that much better.

But poo poo, is eating too much food really that great? Is sitting on your rear end so much better than dragging yourself to the gym?

I find it really hard to have sympathy for white western women who would have flawless lives if they just removed the one obstacle that they themselves have control over more than anyone or anything else.

I'm surprised this show wasn't cancelled like his sitcom was. It's mostly sad and awkward things happening with very little laugh out loud funny haha. In short, not something I would expect to last as long as it has on a Major Network.

It's on FX, not really a major network. They pretty much give him full reign to do whatever he wants with the show

It's a good show - and I didn't really enjoy his HBO sitcom. He talks about how they tried to force him to make it like the Honeymooners. His new show kind of defies categorization but it's more a series of episodical vignettes than a sitcom. It's not supposed to be super-hilarious all the time like his standup, and he does a great job of balancing tone and emotion between scenes.

It gets good reviews. Not great, but good enough.

I thought with his HBO sitcom he was deliberately trying to make a latter-day Honeymooners (up to & including a very basic, obviously fake set) and nobody "got" it.

Pretty much me, but I also do sit-ups and push-ups and all that like four times a week. But I eat junk all the time and most of my time is spent sitting on my rear end. All it would've taken would've been fat genetics and I'd be a whale.

The only thing that sucks about being skinny is that I'm like a hummingbird, and I have to snack constantly.

Her rant went on for a really long time and I zoned out, unable to think anything besides "Would I gently caress this actress?"

And I think I would. If she lost a few pounds.

I can understand being fat because, to be perfectly honest, getting there is a whole lot of fun. What I don't understand is why you would post a picture of yourself looking like an obese toddler on Facebook.

Just saw the episode after reading that blog post from that anonymous comedy actress who didn't get the part.

It was sort of a bummer because the chick who got the part is in fact not "not that fat" or "sexy", but is in fact a person whose face is melting into her neck and who manages to look fat standing next to Louis CK.

I too love Louis CK. So much so that i'm sure that when his show, which I love, gets around to portraying the things I care about, he'll drop his character's perpetually awkward confusion and treat it with the seriousness it deserves.

Only her face is fat.
