I'm patiently waiting for someone to shoehorn overblown soap storylines and a big-breasted woman forging a lonely path into the brown-suited and male-dominated world of IBM in the 60s. RATINNNNGGSSSS.
ugh stop i feel old just reading this.

That put me off it too at first. But it's purely about long character arcs (I hate saying gay stuff like that but can't avoid it here) so watching an episode or two is probably a bit pointless.
Still going really strong at series 7 actually.

I was just dying for him to get off the stage, so damn hard to watch from the moment he turned up at the event
Yeah, that was a great bit of slapstick haha

The bit where some crazy guy runs after mad man to eat his bicycle cracked me up though

6 parts?! I dunno how I feel about that, the fact theres no core storyline throughout is what I like about Louie.
