TV The Best Show (Not Named Game of Thrones) is Coming Back to Your Television
Posted by Ezra Ace Caraeff on Tue, May 24, 2011 at 1:29 PM
Good news for those that like television that is both incredibly funny and painfully awkward: Louie is back for season number two. Starting June 23rd, Louie CK's (vaguely) autobiographical comedy returns to the 'ol boob tube (Does anyone call it that anymore? Anyone other than my mom?) courtesy of the FX network. While not for everyone, Louie feels like a deconstructed sitcom, a sort of bizarro world Seinfield, but sans the slap bass and canned laughter.
Shocking that FX would bring the show back, especially considering that this is their lineup for tonight and tomorrow morning:
8-10 pm: Kung Fu Panda
10-12 am: Kung Fu Panda (just in case you missed it)
12-2 am: Big Momma's House 2
