Louie Season 5 Episode 6 Review: “Sleepover” – TVOM

TVOM: I love how responsible a show like Louie feels, both in its big moments and small. Whether trying to make a specific point about fatherhood, or a larger condemnation of human behavior as a whole, Louis C.K.’s self-awareness to his impact (or in some cases, lack thereof) on the world around around him is a fascinating thing. As a man of his age with children and a respected cultural voice, he’s a person whose immaturity comes in direct contrast with his position in the world, as a father, a brother, an adult, and a respected member of the creative community. And although “Sleepover” is easily the most lighthearted episode of the season, there are still interesting subtle hints of C.K.’s overarching philosophies at play in the episode.
