Who would think that admitting to mild racism would be the safe part of a monologue?
Safe? Lol wtf do you mean by safe? It's a joke.
the king of all satans safe meaning it’s the one that least offended people
@@kulatoid jokes shouldn't offend people. The point of comedy is to cross the line and not take it seriously.
@@LM-yd1hh No. If Louis' jokes did not offend and did not ride the fine line between being offensive, you would not find them funny at all. Comedy is supposed to push social bounderies, yes, but that means those bounderies have to be there in the first place. You should be happy there are people who get offended at jokes.
@Gatti if someone is impersonating someone then they're usually making fun of that person. If they aren't making fun of that person in some way then it's not funny. It's talented, but not funny. Therefore the impersonator would have to be offending someone, In this case the person being impersonated. All good comedy has to push some type of boundary, if they don't then it's just some lame ass story being told
My mild racism was , look at the black guy in the back the whole time to see how he react.
lol yep, me too
is that paul mooney? lol.
:D exactly
Spot on :-)
Yea kinda.
My favorite part of this whole bit is when he says “You can only really surmise, that it must be really good”, and seeing the band behind them drop their heads and shaking
They probably know he's speaking the truth with all the pedos in Hollywood
@@user-ed7vr3iq5l WOW I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THAT, YOURE SO SMART.
@@user-ed7vr3iq5l all those Hollywood pedos living in New York huh
@@milessmith6611 The entertainment industry is international most of the celebrities that operate in New York also operate in California playing semantics just makes you a smug jackass
For real lmaooo. I was watching mostly the band during the video. Guitarist in the front-left was dying the whole time haha.
This is actually the last SNL I can remember where I made an effort to watch it only because Louis was hosting. I made my wife watch it with me and I will never forget the look on her face getting more and more upset when he was doing the child molester bit. One of the best moments of my life. She was so angry about it. And it was that moment when it really hit me that we weren’t meant to be married, so now we’re divorced. The End
More time alone with the kids, eh?
Bro dropped his whole relationship so he could meat munch on Louis CK guilt free💀boy wtf is you smoking?
Congrats on your freedom.
@@Lostxanfound nah louis ck revealed that his wife had no sense of humour which is indicative of a persons character. Same with using the term "meat munch"💀
@@genzlegacy7988 I've honestly never even heard the term "meat munch" until this comment thread.
Sounds like a yearly parade or something. 🤣
To get on National TV and joke about child molestation is ballsy as fuck. Louis is an Absolute legend
Carlin would be proud
MORE hilarious
What does he say at 7:33 ?
"How do ye think I feel, it's my last show probably"
Degenerate
Q: How fucking good do you have to be to get a crowd to laugh at child molestation?
A: Louis CK good.
lol
I don't know anyone who can make a sensitive subject funny. Jerry Seinfeld did one on suicide, but that was 30 years ago.
+Dao Yang Anthony Jeselnik and he's the best at it
Gabriel Escobar Haha! Love Jeselnik. He's great!
I totally agree, check out Dave Chapelle's monologue about man rape for instance or the "how old is 15?" they're both hilarious while they're sensitive subjects! These two men are geniuses!
This is the greatest set ever performed on TV
It's hard to watch other stand-ups after hearing Louis. He's been on another level for two decades.
Dude exactly. Just like Breaking Bad, it literally ruiined drama tv shows for me, cause it doesn't reach the level of greatness.
Yep. Shane Gillis and Joe List are very good too. But Louis is top dog and Norm probably 2nd all time
@@KK----- Totally agree. Norm is my favorite but I think Louis has the stand-up crown.
Really? What about bill burr or dave chapelle?
@@Ihaaab they're just doing social commentary these days :D where is all the cleverly written jokes and stand up routine ? I'm a fan of both of them but in terms of stand up and written jokes, CK is on another level
This is the riskiest monologue to ever be performed on SNL and that’s why I love Louis
Twisted people get off on doing twisted things. That's some groundbreaking insight.
John Downs bless your heart
Yes there was some risky material there but the worst was Martin Lawrence in 1994. They banned him from the show and that episode was never aired again unedited. I had the pleasure of seeing it live with my mom and sister. It was very uncomfortable watching with them. Martin talked about women not "washing their asses properly" and giving women oral sex while they had a yeast infection and "coming up with dough on your damn lip". It was hilarious but bad.....My mother actually wrote a letter to NBC about how offended she was...she doesn't do stuff like that so that was a big deal.
Norm MacDonald is up there. Gets fired from the show, comes back to host and first thing he says is how much the show sucks.
Nah i think norm McDonald's was
lets be honest- this is not the first time you are here.
It’s like the 17th time and believe me there will be at least 17 times more. And I’m not even American. I’m a Mexican Louis’ die hard fan.
Mans a genius
I come here once a week
When ever this pops up on my feed I watch. It's so damn funny
It actually is the first time
Every comic should watch this. No weak joke, no unnecessary word. Beat by beat, but casual. Like a song
The joke about the Middle East is aging a little too well
That's crazy 8 years later and it applies now better than ever
@@dummy999 that's kind of the point, it's been going on for 80 years or something.
@@delta-996980 years in its current iteration, but more like 1,000+ years of conflict contributing to the perennial hate.
It’s 2023 and the Middle East joke is perfect. As he said, everything changes except the middle east…
To many people in the same room, lol, shits wild.
Anyone else spend most of the time watching the video staring at the musicians in the background to see if they're enjoying it
That was totally me, too
daaaaaamn ! i did the same xD
same
yes! why is that? so glad to find out there are others!
i hope someone thinks about us like this as well.
Me too.
Probably the best measure of how funny you are is if you get people to laugh at a joke about child molestation.
Bryon Letterman lol
Bryon Letterman pizzagate
Well in the US it is even more. :D
Not to mention a joke where a crying child is strangled to death.
No. That's being shocking or ballsy. Funny is not always in your face "look at me, I'm a famous comedian making racist and child molestation jokes on national Tv." Too often comedians and some people think being edgy is being funny. No, it's just being edgy, plain and simple.
The jokes in this monologue are sensational, but I'll give you some advice: Don't try to repeat them. I tried to be funny with them at my father-in-law's party and my girlfriend's whole family looks at me and treats me differently since then...
Definitely part of it was the delivery, but a good deal of why it worked was also just that he's Louis lol. My condolences, I know the feeling (although I learned it on slightly less dangerous jokes to bomb with haha)
Ahahahah same thing happened to me. I made a joke at the Thanksgiving dinner table one year with the in laws and the brother in law's family and guess what...they're all now former in-laws. Not because of the joke but the joke didn't help.
Seems like you are making a joke here with this comment- throwing it out there
The delivery of the joke is everything. Plus they might know you as a different guy and the jokes seemed out of character.
It definitely needs to come with a "Don't try this at home" warning
That was one hell of a journey. He was literally self assessing, and reading the audience while delivering his material, and was able to react and adjust in order to nail it. That was an artistic performance!
It’s not cool to post a college level analysis of stuff like this
own that fraud ppluvr215@@Ppluvr215
I gotta admit, no one else could successfully get through that joke.
Zahra Abdullahi watch Doug Stanhope
Louis is master class
Chapelle. Bill Burr. Bill Hicks.
@@ricarleite yea
ANDYofzz even if Stanhope was booed he’d just tell the audience to shove it with a smile. No fucks given with that guy.
I feel like in comedy there seems to be a red line people tend not to cross. And then there's Louis CK molesting that red line.
Christian Boeckh While simultaneously eating a Mounds bar lol 😄
No he can't eat a mounds bar while doing anything else. He molests the red line, then celebrates with a Mounds Bar.
It must feel really good to molest that red line ..... for Louis CK. For him! Not for us! We are all awesome!
That line is a child
the point of comedy is to push that line as far as you can, if the guy doesnt even try theres no point. doug stanhope however forgot his red marker at home and just keeps walking
Man i go back to this so often. Just such an incredible 10 minutes. I truly have never seen the band react so much to a monologue. Legendary status
Me too. It’s perfect
Same. love this one. One of the all time great monologues from one of the all time great comedians.
He pushed it to the very edge in this monologue. Very close to the edge. and he knew it. At the last scene you can actually see some fear in his eyes. What a legend.
I see no fear. He's a life long rehearsed professional, he's not gonna get scared and show it at the end. Risky af yes but fear, no. Youre projecting.
@@YanzBra He definitely looks mildly concerned
@@SilentSongXIII and mildly racist!
@@YanzBra Nah, there's his usual put-on hesitation, but you can literally see him get super flushed in the last 30 seconds when he does the deep sigh. I'd say this was a tricky one, even for a pro.
He just tapped danced over 10 lazer beams!
+David Atkinson lol, nice Seinfeld reference xD
+David Atkinson I wish they would do another episode of that if they had the ability to fill the time like they did last time.
+Garrett Newman they cut it down from 4 hours
yea people think they're slick. at least do this '' '' - Jerry Seinfeld
you would think after they push plagiarism as a big no-no in school so much, people would stop. but no people need glory - even if it's on an internet comment section.
As Seinfeld would say, this is a comedian tap dancing over 20 laser beams.
If the audience's moans are any indication, it sounds like he got hit a couple times.
A comedian dancing successfully jumping over 14 laser beams
@@CPTHAP yeah but when the moans immediately get drowned out by an ocean of laughs, it's worth and makes the save even better.
The way that Louis throws himself on the pyre is definitely rare, and maybe even unique. His ability to frame his scumbag thoughts (we all have'm) and occasionally take some heat for trying (usually very successfully) to make some truly fucking awful shit funny as hell is part of what makes him a far-more-than-tolerable pervert (which he also certainly is).
Glad to see that his hiatus didn't last long - hope to catch his act asap.
Louie is incapable of being hit by lazers
8 years later and still one of the best monologues ever!
Any other comedian even tries to joke about child molestation, Israel/ Palestine and being mildly racist gets their careers canned and Louis does it on SNL and has me in stitches. He's one of the greatest ever!
Ah yes.... Except the whole "Jerking off in front of two girls" thing.
They really latched onto that like he was a villain.
If anything, Louis getting laughed at for Jerking his little dingdong by two women, and them leaving, is the most "Louis" thing that has ever happened.
And yet gets cancelled for jacking off in front of consenting women 🙄
The goat for me, but humor is really generational
Could you name me a comedian who lost their career for their jokes?
I imagine Louis CK asking himself: "What're the 3 most controversial things to joke about?" Almost like he was challenging himself. He probably approaches writing standup the way professional athletes do.
Credit to snl for leaving this up
@Elliepopcorn You sort of just repeated what he said but with a lot more words.
I'm gay
oops wrong chat
Hes the jump the shark of me too
InfinityReptar that’s cool man
This was the most surgical train wreck of all time . The execution , the panic, the losing and gaining of the audience . This proves Louis is one of the greats
It almost feels like another comedian dared him “do something on child molesting”. Then he’s like OK. And pulled it off to the shock of everyone.
I think he acted nervous on purpose to make it seem like he changed the subject talking about the mars bar, only to then surprise everyone that he was still on the subject lol
Haven’t watch norm Macdonald if this is losing the audience
I Wana have his baby
It’s been a bit of his for a while. He’s got lots of material on it. Great technique throughout though. Pacing and reaction to shock for a bit like that must be granite to cut through.
Only Louis could pull this off.
Master of his craft. If anyone else tried that. Gone.
The fact he had the balls to do this set on live national tv is amazing.
and especially on network tv.
@@jacobshirley3457 specially SNL
@@irvingdiaz6862 Props to SNL and the network for having no apprehension in putting up the clip. They could have let the live broadcast be the only time this was seen and heard, if they had wanted to. Especially in today's crybaby society. Lorne Michaels and anybody with a brain knew this was absolute genius.
Especially when they got quite at first 😂 I might have chickened out
That pedophile routine... insane.
Has to be one of the most daring and most brilliant SNL opening monologues ever. He got the audience to laugh at three of the most taboo subjects in America "racism, religious hatred and child molesters". He may be banned from SNL but that stand-up routine will never be forgotten. Louis CK is our generations Lenny Bruce and Richard Pryor.
See That's what mean. That isn't funny so imagine the skill to take a mindset like this comment and make normal people laugh.
W Lee i Think hes a carlin more or less.
W Lee Right on, W Lee. Apparently Hiram thinks comedic craft is tapping the caps lock button on a computer keypad. But to your point of CK taking on the 3 taboo subjects of "racism, religious hatred and child molesters;" I'm assuming the "religious hatred" subject you're referring to is CK's bit on Israel/Palestine. I don't consider that subject to be about religious hatred, but that's besides the point I wanna make here. Sure, racism and pedophilia are kinda taboo and it's of course difficult to do genuinely funny, insightful stand-up on those topics. CK does it here. Burr, Chappelle, Silverman have done it. However, imo, Israel/Palestine is a MUCH more taboo subject than the other two, and is also more difficult to make funny. Palestine has been essentially my concern for quite a while so it's very difficult to get me to laugh on the topic. But forgetting the whole "comedy craft" thing for a minute, I'm absolutely blown away that CK even broached that subject, let alone gave it 2 and 1/2 minutes, in his LIVE stand up from NEW YORK. It took major league balls to do what he did last night. Evidenced by the nervous laughter he got from the joke about what Israel does w/ the missiles we sell Israel (i.e.: kill 500 children in a few weeks last summer...). Or this: "The little one's like Palestine 'cuz she always gets screwed. She gets the worst deals." Brass balls saying that on live TV. How long 'til ADL and the Brandeis Center put CK on their list of dangerous anti-Semites? As simplistic as the bit might have been in terms of the actual conflict (unavoidable of course in 2 minutes...), my hat's off to Louis CK for not cutting that from the monologue. If he had to have it approved before air I've got to assume he got some major push back on it.
Anyway, sorry to "derail." The biggest laughs for me came w/ the pedophile bit. I think I woke my neighbors. No seriously. Absolutely hilarious...
W Lee He's banned from SNL? How do you know, did Lorne officially say so or was there an article or something?
Wow he actually got banned from SNL? Was it because of this skit or what?
Gotta watch this masterpiece at least once every three months
Sometimes when I watch this I get a bit choked up. I wouldn't say he's my favorite comedian, but this set is really something special. Every topic is 3rd rail. The jokes hit hard, but the reason why it is special is it is something no other comedian could do. It is someone at the top of their game drawing a line between them and every other standup comedian, and the line is real. Bargatze, Burr, Chappelle, Bamford, Mulaney, Gulman, Stanhope, or name your favorite stand up couldn't get away with this. He has to go so far over the line, and yet get you to excuse him for it. Norm would probably get a laugh from the folks at home with it, but I could see the crowd icing even him for this one.
The laugh on "How do you think I feel, this is my last show probably," is so big, and shows the crowd is so aware of the joke, the logic of the joke, and the implications of the joke. It is a dark observation about one of the worst things human beings do, somehow made into something so funny. Louie is so acutely aware of just how much grace the audience is willing to give him. Seeing someone like this, at their best, being uniquely great and at the top of their field, is something worth marveling at.
Other times I watch this and it just makes me laugh.
Very well said. I watched it live. It was simply awesome.
One of the greatest monologues ever.
The Merovingian Dynasty what are a few really good ones?
Chris Rock ? Bitch please....
Chris Rock is only funny because he screams like 99% of the time... that's the equivalent to why you jump from a jumpscare ... it tries really hard.
You are an absolute child, let me google the top 10 comedians of our era, and list the top 5 in chronological order without any substance to back myself up? You did not like his jokes because you were the direct victim of them.
Charles Martel is coming.
Somehow, I read your comment as "One of the best molestations ever" lol
This guy is an absolute legend, he made people laugh about racism, Israel and Palestine and also child molestation.
On national television
He goes where no one else dares too... pushes the boundaries of our perception of funny/tragic/evil/good... you can listen to him just for a good laugh or even find philosophical elements in some of the stuff he says (seemingly inspired by George Carlin)... we’ll never see his like again
Underrated comment😂😂
Spencer Schubert chappelle is also pretty good at that, but they're all in their own leagues so it's not really fair to compare them, love em all the same
The fact he pulled this off on such a mainstream show... Is mind-boggling
BRO this was truly borderline, he was on the edge... I love Louis.
For anyone who didn't understand what he said at 7:34 it was "How do you think I feel? It's my last show, probably."
Thanks for that fella, I saw it at least 30 times, and always make a few repeats right there but I never got it
This monologue is a masterpiece everything is perfectly tight and perfectly delivered
Panos Voulgaris 😂😂😂
@Scruff Looking Nerve Hurter ...Yeah, so?
He talks about creating the set on o&a. This dude works hard
Not an ounce of fat on it
You bet..one of the best

I LOVE LOUIS CK ALWAYS HAVE AND ALWAYS WILL ❤
Louis is the best to ever do it. I love everybody here that’s been watching recently. Appreciating how truly great this comic is and these monologues.
Louie says what he thinks in his 47 year old mind. We've all thought of the worst things imaginable sometimes. Louie just isn't afraid to say it. Its called being a comedian. If you cringed or felt uncomfortable then he did his job.
No, he's a comedian. If you laughed he did his job. Preachers, perverts, and public nuisances make people cringe or feel uncomfortable.
...Did I just do that?
k i l l e r D L S I support Louie's right to speak his mind. But I do feel a bit jealous that he gets a pass because he's a comedian, but if I said the same thing I would get skewered.
k i l l e r D L S No, his job is to make you laugh. If you cringe or felt uncomfortable and didn't laugh then he didn't do his job. If you laughed without cringing or feeling uncomfortable then he still did his job.If you laughed and still cringed then he still did his job. That's being a comedian, not "pushing boundaries." If boundaries do or don't get pushed in the process it doesn't matter so long as the laughs come. This has to be the funniest monologue of the year btw.
George Henry Somebody who tells people they don't know what comedy means, we call that narrow minded.
I was laughing the whole way through.
Either everything is okay to joke about, or nothing is, because everything is a sensitive topic to somebody.
George Henry I replied to this "apparently this guy has has no idea what comedy actually means.".
I'm sure every comic who makes predominantly offensive jokes knows that other sorts of comedy exist, but they are trying to fill a niche.
It took some pretty big balls to do that on Saturday night live
+Marques Martinez It takes balls to invite a comedian who is known for his no holds barred style to host your TV-14 show
+ThatRabbitGuy Wut? If you want no boundaries, Louis C.K. is nothing compared to Jimmy Carr.
KnifingGame Yeah, sure, but it'll cost an arm and a leg more to invite a Brit from Britland than a local guy
+daarrkmatter Not at all
zTxmi I like them both but you can tell that jimmy carr just tries to be as offensive as possible. They're both hilarious but Louis C.K has so much more class. He's like a reincarnation of George Carlin.
I've watched this numerous times and I still laugh at this like it's the first time I watched it.
I think lately I laugh even harder, I guess because I know it by heart already !!
This was a masterclass of orchestrated chaos lmao
i love how louis' version of dressing up is deciding to tuck the black shirt that he always wears into the jeans that he also always wears
@Long Change 😀I just started standup and want ur OPINION.Please SUBSCRIBE if u LIKE.

ruclips.net/user/JeffWarren47
I remember when they “banned” this monologue, and there was no video of it on RUclips. I’m glad it’s here now. This is some serious “laser dodging” Louie is the king of making the darkest stuff funny.
I doubt that ever happened, it was broadcasted by NBC on their most well-known program. If it wasn't on RUclips right away, it was NBC being hesitant about uploading it. There's no way RUclips would "ban" this, it's not even that edgy. It's a watered down cable version of Louis CK
Jesus Hong you sound like an anti-sjw sjw jesus christ
@Jesus Hong Fully agree, you're first line is gold.
@Jesus Hong facts
It says published 2015, so how was it banned?
The greatness to not only write and rehearse this entire set, but then absolutely nail it on SNL's 40th anniversary. All time great performance.
This was done well into cancel-culture being a thing. Which proves it's not about the danger of the content, it's about the execution of the comedy. Louis is so skilled that he can talk his racism towards all races, call his own young daughters little bitches, and then joke for 5 minutes about how great molesting children is, and somehow the audience is loving it at the end. Pure skill.
Exactly, this is why real comedians should not worry about cancel culture. Sure maybe people are more sensitive nowadays, but really it’s a testament to how good you are as a performer to deliver sensitive material well and keep the audience on your side
No topic is above comedy. Louis CK FTW.

Will Barnard it's kind of an oxymoron. No joke is offensive.
Risky as hell. Pushing the boundaries but still pulls it off. I admire the approach.
Niall Purcell -"Pulls it off"? You are great and apparently psychic.
I, personaly, am pissed off, that he had to explain the joke. Really? These stupid fucks will groan, because he used some offensive humor? Fuck them, how about that? Stay home, cover your eyes and ears if you are easily offended. "See no evil"... Fuck those people...
It is my dream, to see comic(or any public person for that matter) who just says his shit, and don`t try to apologize or explain himself. And people should think for themselves, instead running every word through chart "that is ok, i can laugh at that, that is a no- no, you have to boo this bit." Right now closest one is Bill Burr, but still he explains himself sometimes, so i havet met my "dream" person :)
Heretyk_13. Nah it was hilarious. I laughed immediately as soon as he said it, and i laughed even harder when i heard the reaction of the audience because i know its a very fucked up thing to say, but it being fucked up doesn't mean its not funny. I laughed so hard when he was trying to explain his joke nervously xD I'm honestly against this type of comedy if its done by someone who isn't a professional comedian, it will only be hurtful to other people and will make you look like an asshole and it won't be funny at all. But if its done by a professional, it will make you look like a hilarious asshole, which is something i admire.
The way he senses he's about to lose the audience and then ropes them in again is masterful. Only an experienced comedian could do this.This is top tier delivery.
He obviously knew he’d have to play recovery when he was writing the joke lol
But you’re right still
Bro we 100% had a child molester house just across the street and down a ways. It was exactly the same. "Hey, that's a child molester, don't go there."
So why are people complaining about this on twitter? As far as I'm concerned he killed it...
Kebour Indris because in America you need to be politically correct about everything... in public, most people are racist as shit in private
Kebour Indris Its because they lack the ability to understand context, so they apply their own context and get offended.
Kebour Indris because we're now in an age where everyone is offended at everything

I think Louis CK and Franco Escamilla are at the same level. Too bad if you aren’t bilingual you cannot appreciate his comedy. Franco Escamilla probably has as many or more fans than Louis CK since he has reached to pretty much all of Spanish speaking America.
@@cletokings4302 PFFFFFF Franco ni se acerca
He was in total control of that audience and that’s the mark of a great comic
Louis deservedly gets a ton of credit for putting this set together but SNL/Lorne Michaels deserve big recognition for approving it and making it happen on network TV. They knew full well the shit they were going to get for it.
Brilliant ending. "We got through it." Makes the audience an accessory.
This monologue should be studied and taught in film schools, how to be a master in writing and delivering materials. He was basically dancing and dodging laser beams in a freakin minefield as he could have easily lost his whole career at that exact moment but instead went away with probably the best monologue in the history of snl.
the part whet he lost his career came a few months later 👍
@@hardlyworking_ well that time he actually landed his feet on the minefield
Did you get this from a RUclips video or something
@@hardlyworking_ He didn't lose shit. He's still killing it.

Absolutely despicable that SNL keeps this video up to monotize but will not have LCK back on. Absolutely hypocritical and ridiculous.
he's happy wealthy father with two amazing daughters. and you're comment will never change those two facts. :)
100% SNL attitude
“How you think I feel. It’s my last show probably”, this line was not improvised, it was well planned to brake completely the tension and get the public again under control and having fun. Which is the whole objective. Just genius .

Lol yes be safe, don't go near the child molester's house
Louis CK is so true to his craft. He is always risky with his taboo subjects but it’s the very reason I enjoy and respect his stand up. There’s so many angles of perspective to what he pitches that’s you can’t help but find the humor in it.
I was at the dress rehearsal for this episode. I remember just being like I can't believe this dude just said that on national TV hahaha Louis Ck is a legend.

undrtakr900 it's pretty much right before the live show, they do it back to back. it's literally the same show, but sometimes if someone messes up, they will make a joke like, "who cares? it's dress"
A9ForeverFine Heyyyy bayyybeee
"I was born in 1967. So I grew up in the 70s. So...I'm not racist *pause* ....however" (Louis wanted the audience to say shit..He's gunna talk about it) Lmaoo he's a genius
Totally agree, although there are better "bits" in this monologue, as far as comic timing is involved, that "however" is pretty much as good as it gets.
You obviously cared enough to answer it.
He was making fun of racists who seem to love saying: "I'm not racist, but …" Usually something racist follows. That is also why he exchanges the "but" for "however".
+Anshal Majmudar thus proving you wrong.
that man walked on hot raser blades with butter shoes 😂
I remember watching this live and being stunned by the audacity and hilarity. And the crystal clear understanding of human nature.
This is my favourite opening monologue on SNL. Ever. I mean, I've only seen like 50 episodes but still, this is amazing.
+Earl Lemongrab I mean, seriously, just listen to the audience reaction during the child molester part. People are losing it. On SNL.
Try watching an hour of his stand-up, specifically "Chewed Up"
this might actually be him subconsciously admitting he thinks about molesting all of the young children he meets through taking care of kids lol
Ernest could you elaborate on that please? Would be interesting given all the current shenanigans
This is the most hardcore comedy set I have ever seen. The way that he ropes you in and gets you to laugh at this final, despicable joke is just masterful. Wow.
You haven't watched a lot of stand-up, have you? Norm McDonald, Frankie Boyle, Bill Burr, Jimmy Carr, and the MASTER George Carlin. If you think that's hardcore...well, try them on.
M. West name one routine from any of those guys that is this dark
@@elijahgavin6706 Agree. I know Norm, Burr, Carr and Carlin. None of them go this far. Not that it's a competition.
Watch Jesselnik. Way darker. A bit different style though (he is one liner), but still soooo dark. I love Louis, he is my number 1 forever but Anthony Jesselnik is the darkest mindset I've heard so far. Try his "Worst crowd" and "Drop the baby". Also Ive seen one of his bits called "Murder-suicide" somewhere in compilations but I cant find it separately for some reason... Its cool too.
@@mikewestprod none of those are hardcore. Jummy Carr had some hardcore stuff but its mostly nasty kind of "hardcore", sex jokes you know. Nothing hardcore at all about any of the rest of them even though I love most of their work.
I've not ever seen something as on point and funny as LCK at his prime.
Legendary
I reckon his 2017 special was his prime
@@adrianbiber5340 I think he has gotten even better now.
He's still in his prime.
@@allanshpeley4284 1000% Well said and thank you
Louie brings a great point, child abuse is not allowed to be talked about in any capacity, we cannot solve the issue if we cannot talk about it, simply TALK, I ran into the same problem awhile back when I was seeing a therapist about my own abuse, I had suggested to her that we victims meet for group therapy to try to talk about it, she told me that no one would ever want to get together to discuss it, it's a topic that not allowed to be talked about and life as an adult victim sucks cause no one cares anymore, I am not kid anymore and no one wants to put up with my shit, they seem to only care about the abuse when you are little, once you are an adult they do not want to hear shit from you
I'm technically a mentally disabled adult, autism, and I'm stuck in the same mentally abusive situation for going on 5 years. I could easily solve it, but I'm afraid of what most people don't understand and some things they do. It was made worse by a few deaths of friends and family, and this person just keeps steadily making things worse...especially if I say that it's bothering me. Most of my so called friends just gave up even talking to me because I can't go see them. Once you're a fully developed adult, you're on your own to watch yourself crumble from stress. I've always loved comedy, and it's been a lifesaver.
" hey you interrupted me, I was saying something racist" lmfao
I was molested as a child, and I thought this monologue was the BEST SNL monologue in a very long time. Louis CK is hilarious!
TMI...sorry :-/
Crazy that Israel Palestine joke is still incredibly relevant
This Monologue is so God damn funny... man's got balls, man is genuinely a treasure on Robin Williams level and the fact that some tried to destroy him is a tragic... luckily they couldn't. Man is a genius
This monologue was Louis CK spitting at political correctness. When a comedian can make people laugh, even at the most heinous or tragic things, you know he's tapped into our collective funny bone.
Joe Rogan does/did it. Doug Stanhope, Jim Norton, other comedians in that vein.
hes catholic mexican
+James Bond Well, there's Jimmy Carr. He's on another level when it comes to being offensive
try out Bill Burr. That guy makes fun of sad and tragic things all the time, and he is just killing it.
The best thing about this monologue is that it's obvious that Louis knew exactly what he was doing through that whole segment which is pure genius.
Yeah. Usually comedians have no idea, what they are doing.
I'm always astounded when people call comedians geniuses. They are skilled at reading and shaping a room and that requires in born talent at his level, and lots of practice over years, but genius? I don't know...
@@mikechilds4452 Yeah. In order to be a genius you need to think of something that nobody has ever thought of. Or invent a number. Now it's like "I brought a cup in case we need another cup", "dude, you're a genius."
The greatest living comedian, and this monologue is one of the reasons why.
If SNL ever wanted to shake a few accusations about being "too woke", bring this Legend back on and let the pearl-clutching comedy-haters lose their minds.
Side Note: this comment is from a fairly hardcore liberal progressive...just sayin'. 👍✌❤
Just wow. And his other SNL monologue is also amazing. Just saw it today if you can believe it. His two new shows on his website are well worth the money if you are thinking about it. I saw a clip of him performing in his early days and it was horrible. He admits he was terrible at year 15 and had to rethink it all. He found a mentor (George C.) and everything changed (his words). Thanks George for showing Louis the way. You're gone but he is back!
His show Sorry is one of my all time favorites
You are referencing the speech he did at Carlin's memorial, he was just starting to get famous then, mostly because of Connan and being a regular on the Opie and Anthony show, since then Louie has had so many funny moments in his career!
Of course I can believe it, they play right after eachother :)
Man, Louis is the only guy who could pull it off in front of a crowd. Now I know he regularly pulls it off in front of a crowd.
aaahahahahaaha
LMFAO got'em
🔥
Wow. Very accurate. Impressive.
he constantly pulls off before crowds from what i hear..
In my opinion, the best stand-up alive today. No one can turn a crowd as quickly as Louie. Guarantee that everyone in that audience was laughing harder than they ever had.
Oh man, what a genius craftsman in his art. I can’t stop laughing at 8:12 when he crack that laugh that he knows what he is going to say, and only thinking: oh boy, how the f am I gonna drop this bomb now.... and seconds later he goes... All right!! We did it!!!! I saw all his videos at least a bazillion times. Louis is my top 1 favourite comedian. And finally he got back again. I was so waiting for his comeback. !!!
Cause everything he says it’s accurate and truthful and right on point,with it he is exposing the uneasiness of the crowd and with his great delivery gets it done.
"Not to us, cuz we're all awesome" - Oh man, you can tell he was genuinely worried about this. Like, in front of millions of people on SNL, and no idea if this was gonna fly. And still effin did it. And it's brilliant.
That was part of the performance
@@hasundarwiche5589 Everything he did during the performance is part of the performance by definition.
Yep I also think he was really worried for a second... when the audience gasped. But then brought it back.
He's often discussed how the seemingly off the cuff, "improvised" looking additions to certain jokes are in fact designed to look that way from the very start. But I don't think that would exactly apply to some of the anxiety you see/hear in his face/voice in this monologue. He knows he's on the precipice of either hearing them all laugh or boo & it's just as likely for either to happen, especially that last bit... After all it's not just him fuckin' around at a random comedy club where the stakes are low & he can experiment, it's a friggin 40th anniversary SNL season finale.
@@carnolasluggs5417 Exactly, totally agree.
It takes a lot of confidence going on national tv dressed like a miner.
I understood that reference hahahaha
@@Detonated66 Not a minor, but a miner 😂😂

I have 3 phds and I dont get what you mean sir.
Well played
The mounds bar bit hits kinda different now 😂
One the all time best monologues 👏👏👏
Only Louis could pull this off. He's the best comedian working today.
Bill, Louis, and Dave. Today’s top 3.
I thought this was hilarious. He wanted to make people feel uncomfortable and he did. George Carlin - 'I think it's the duty of the comedian to find out where the line is drawn and cross it deliberately.'
This will also get so much media attention.
Dont u ever compare carlin to this mexican "wanna be white" hack.. carlin is top 5 all time. Piss iff
BlackLatinCeaser He gets it. Carlin was of his time and Louis is of his. Let the dialogue happen.
BlackLatinCeaser I just quoted Carlin, I didn't even compare the two. How do you read that as a comparison lol
sniktu Agreed
BlackLatinCeaser CK > Carlin
come at me bro
I want this guy back!
He's still doing some stand up - ruclips.net/video/R8Nc3x_TkF4/видео.html
He will be, give it some time
#metoo
He's making his way back
Utkarsh Tiwari I love that drive profile picture it's a shame only God forgives wasn't as well received
Louis fucking killed it
I'll buy you a really cool missile was next level
*The bravest comedy ever attempted. We miss ya Louie. Come back when you can. We'll be here.*
Here here
I've seen him live and hes absolutely amazing, but now that we know hes a sexual predator itd be hard for me to go see him again.
@Gabriel Godina oh yeah, following a woman into the bathroom and asking her if you can beat off in front of her and when she doesnt say anything standing in front of the door and doing it is totally just being, "a little weird sexually". Its absolutely beyond absurd to try to justify his behavior as a sex act between consenting adults.
He will jerk his way back into your life
imaferretmaster Don't yuck his yum.
It's February 2020 and I'm still a Louis fan. There, I said it.
SO BRAVE.
Hear, hear!
#StunningAndBrave
Same
Ayup. I also.
Always loved this. Really clever. What really gets me is how well he pulls off the ‘golly I can’t believe this is working / oh no what am I doing’ act well enough to get people rooting for him.
2024 and this is still the best piece of comedy I’ve ever seen
Whether you like him or not, you can't reasonably deny that Louis is one of the greatest comedians of all time.
That's oxymoronic.
@@simoncharb.3284 You are right. Just like him period. He is great. No pussy footing
I never once even considered stopped being a fan.
If he raped someone, then yes, I would join the cancel crowd.
But he whipped out his dick in front of grown ass women who just... sat there? And another woman said he whipped it out when she was ON THE PHONE with him?
Really?
Get up and leave. And hang up. Idiot.
But of course not. "PoWeR dyNaMiCs". Sounds like they wanted him to hook them up with stuff otherwise they would tell. I guess they didn't get hooked up.
@simoncharb.3284 which part?
He follows the advice of George Carlin. A comedian should know where the line is then deliberately cross it.
Keith Greenan With self-awareness and proper tone that method can produce magical results. But if you lack either of these you are walking into an uncomfortable and dangerous situation for yourself
The Carlin quote also mentioned bringing the audience across that line with you. Which is the difficult thing to do in this era of politically correct sissies.
"Tact in audacity is knowing how far you can go without going too far." - Jean Cocteau
A comedian's job is that of a social scientist. It is their mission to FIND the line. Crossing it is up to the individual comedian.
Brilliant. Edgy and clever. Talented writer
This should just be referred to as "The Monologue" because its legendary
