about this train wreck of a guy who aspired to be a professional clown. Louie played his MOTHER! An obese woman who tried to keep her dysfunctional family together. Not a very redeeming show but Louie's role as that woman was some stellar acting indeed. I had to keep telling myself who it really was. It was worth a look just to see him in action. The lead actor is pretty talented too, he plays both brothers. I don't much care for the character but again, I can appreciate the skill in craft.
I would have figured Louie was older. I'm 59 in a couple weeks myself.
