+Reima I feel like that's a complete misunderstanding of Louis CK's ironic approach to humour. It's not loathing, it's mostly apathy, but it's all an act anyway.
His style really hasn't changed in 30 years, he just refined it with new experiences and harder hitting material. But he always had a weird perspective of mundane things.
i like to think his thought process was something like this "hey my hairlines gone , im getting older MY GOD HOW AM I GONNA GET A DATE TO THE PROM OR GETMARRIED LOOKING LIKE THIS OR EVEN- wait, dafuq im talking about, and im worrying about so much petty shit... and so is everyone else... sooo.. youve heard about our amazing fly machines beaming info from space?"
When he set up the briefcase punchline, I thought for a quick second: "Ooh, was that too dark for Conan back then?" Conan's response: "Well, you need something to carry it in..." 😂
Disagree... Check out Shane gillis, or actually anything else, watch paint dry or grass grow, or cat videos, or dogs fucking, anything else but this lame ass shit
This was a lovely blast from the late-night past, thanks for this video! That first clip right after the show started is so bizarre to watch now, given what both these guys became. Look how small that set looks compared to now! There were a number of comedy cauldrons in the early-to-mid 90s that were considered, at the time, to be alternative, strange, and deeply "quirky" in their work. Yet set the stage for the comedy boon in the last 5-10 years *everywhere* on TV. The writer's room for early Conan was one of them.
You can see the evolution of Louis.. He had hair, energetic- to getting married, balding and losing interest in life. To getting divorce and becoming a legend, one of the greats.
If your goal was to have a family and a house and a white picket fence, you've been sold a pipe dream that serves nothing but the feminine imperative. The few who are able to break their backs to serve their feminine overlords quickly discover that there's nothing positive in it for them. Whether it takes divorce rape, false abuse accusations, or losing custody of their children, men learn that the dream wasn't theirs.
Losing interest in life? Dude, you need to realize that his jokes are jokes, do not take them to be facts. You seriously think he hates being a parent also? I just can't understand how people seem to have such a big problem with this. He probably loves life, all his money and his kids.
The price for commitment is too high for men, the rewards are too low. Especially when people expect us to be some sort of Disney prince for an ex-slut.
I don't think I've ever witnessed Louie be unentertaining for 5 seconds straight. He's never had 5 uninteresting seconds of talking in his entire career, it's crazy.
@@TheBrawlmastahhow is reading the silliest book in history not funny? Own slaves, kill women, murder every first born of a nation...it's comedy fodder. Maybe you're not familiar with it.
I saw these when they first broadcasted! good memories, thanks for putting these here. also, these are some of the early, great Conan days. I miss those.
Oh man...my mind is BLOWN watching him at such a young age! The voice is there and some of the style is there but he's not the same comedian. Something clearly changed as the video went on.
I think it's clearly having children, as his comedy went to a new level after his kids were born. (certainly not after marriage) He tapped into a comedy that hadn't really been talked about. Rather than "having kids are great, but it's hard" to "It totally sucks having kids and they're jerks". Saying the funny things that we all thought, but could never say.
Dade, I think the delivery was there, but the strong funny and - most importantly - relatable takes were not. Louis admits himself he was trying too hard to be an alternative angry take comic before 2004, and this video shows it better than anything I've seen. When he took his alternative style and delivery, put angst and some brilliant relatable modern observations about living in America in the beginning of the 21st century, then he became great. That's also why his alternative style now began to work. He would take hilarious, everyday stuff, and then make a huge U-turn in his routine - sometimes within the joke let alone the bit. Without his old shock style put in, Louis is still a very good observational comic, but not considered one of the best of his generation as he is now. And again, this video shows why that is perfectly. The U-turns made people stop and think, but also allowed Louis to easily flow from topic to topic, because he could then take you anywhere.
Hey, Thanks, I love these two together, I'm always excited when they do a new interview together, they are my favorite comedians. It's nice to have a compilation of all of them.
His June 2007 appearance was way funnier knowing John Krazinksi with his clean cut image was next to him trying to keep it together. Meanwhile CK’s talking about constantly imagining his life without his kids and saying the best moment of his life was putting opiates in his ass 😂
Louie discovered the social media scam all the way back in 2001 with his 'bad jokes' thing. People get angry and then read another one and leave comments and you get a 'spike' in activity - now that's the whole game! Great job!
Amazing compilation. It's very interesting to see him evolve. As he seems to get less excited about life, he becomes much more talented at his craft. I'd love to eavesdrop on him and late Robin Williams having a beer together. Let the good stuff come out.
Louie is the proof that it is never too late to get good on a profession. His improvement is amazing. He mastered the stand up comedy and became a pretty good director with the louie series.
I remember seeing Louie on Conan in the late 90s and thinking “this guy is going to be huge!” Finally, he gained a modicum of the respect he deserved with the “Louie” show and a few years later gets “cancelled” in more ways than just his show. Regardless of what some may think of him, you have to admit he’s hilarious.
Each time Conan glances at his notecard before serving up the next joke prompt, it helps me understand why I much prefer to see him host a podcast vs. a talk show. It's so much more immersive to witness a genuine dialog than a stand-up routine disguised as a conversation. For all the concerns about us becoming dumber as a society, in this case, I think we're evolving.
Absolutely love Louis. He's the only one that cracks me up to my core. ..and no matter how bad I'm feeling. Thanks for putting this awesome timeline together. @28:05 can't make out answer to bad joke about 'dog that doesn't lick his balls"....."dogsn't??? CC says' 'dog' lol

His style really hasn't changed in 30 years, he just refined it with new experiences and harder hitting material. But he always had a weird perspective of mundane things.
It still freaks me out that he was the one who wrote and directed Pootie Tang 😂
A weird perspective of mundane things. Excellent wording to describe what i was thinking.
Weird but undeniable
weird perspective...?? literally accurate as all f lol
humans are walking mundane things.
Great comment. For all of us die hard Carlin fans, you can feel Carlins influence on Louie. That's why I appreciate Louie, his take on the mundane.
the further back his hairline goes the less fucks he gives

Yes, thank you funvoid!

I just love when Conan says "uh huh" throughout, when he hears the most absurd stuff.
It's honestly one of my favorite parts 😆
Uh huh.
@@jcee6886🤣🤣🤣
The more hair Louis loses the bigger Conan's hair gets. The correlation can't be coincidence.

This is a goldmine, what a random find I found through UA-cam telling me what I want to watch.
Well, I guess I could be wrong but it seems like it could be the algorithm? You know?
i searched him once and oh boy i love the recommendations
recognize you from the killtony comments, great minds think alike
Imagine if we had access to Conan box set.
this could easily be a special and it would still be better than most comedians can pull off

4:25 the story with the lady and canal st. When he ended with "I should've just stabbed her" god damn it that is a fantastic joke.
Wow, the first one was like watching some young guy doing a spot on Louis impression
Thank you thank you thank you thank you for uploading these gems! O god do I love Louis and Conan!
Awesome collection!
Not only did Louie's timing and delivery get tighter, Conan clearly got more comfortable and started riffing on the guest improv.
You rarely see Conan laugh harder except maybe with norm macdonald
Sean Page Bill Burr
he is dying laughing everytime 'ol billy red face burr is there
Norm was the best.

the change from 1993 to 1997 is impressive
I like his appearance in 1999 and Conan says, "you just got married" and Louis C.K. already is like "Yeah yeah".. Like he knew he fucked up.
Awesome to see how consistently funny he's been over such a long time.. and he always has different material. Definitely my favorite comic.
You can see the evolution of Louis..

You sound like a brainwashed, self-hating man who thinks that masculinity is toxic. Wait until divorce rape hits you. Hypergamy is a bitch.
man you even took the time to put the times and the themes of the bits, thumbs up just for that reason.
I don't think I've ever witnessed Louie be unentertaining for 5 seconds straight. He's never had 5 uninteresting seconds of talking in his entire career, it's crazy.
The last time I saw him live he read from the Bible and managed to make it entertaining from top to bottom
He's not funny at all I don't see how people find him funny. That sounds pretty awful to be honest@@kc8203

Conan is good at playing the straight man and feeding Louis the lines.
He's above everyone else at making his guests shine.
this is such a great compilation. thanks
27:00. Louis really was onto something. He discovered that rage generated more clicks than any other content. Decades before social media did.

I said the same thing, man, it doesn't seem like it's been that long ago..
I know, I only just discovered Conan like a few years ago..

I'm at the top of this video & am already a little happier. Thank you.
I missed Louis's Max Headroom phase in '99.
Thank you so much for making this video. Freaking hilarious
I dont really care how much he grew as a comedian or not. Im just happy that video and audio quality increased over the decades.
or, you know, vhs tape degrades.
Hey, Thanks, I love these two together, I'm always excited when they do a new interview together, they are my favorite comedians. It's nice to have a compilation of all of them.
He was on so many times in '99!
HAH I love it when Conan can't keep it together!!!
It's fascinating to watch Louis progress from being mildly amusing to being hilarious.
His June 2007 appearance was way funnier knowing John Krazinksi with his clean cut image was next to him trying to keep it together. Meanwhile CK’s talking about constantly imagining his life without his kids and saying the best moment of his life was putting opiates in his ass 😂
Holy shit I'd never seen that bit before, it was amazing
An actual Jim Halpern Stare moment
27:08 ''You're on too something.'' He was on to what the internet would turn into on a full scale!
19:28 I love how he does the guy getting angry while mowing his lawn ! hilarious!
One of the best comedians of all times, thanks for the video
I love how his deliveries in this are arguably better than they are in his specials haha. What a gem!

Social media didn't exist for the majority of his career. He was a writer long before he was a stand up comedian.

Thanks! You're channel is great =*
This is an amazing compilation. Thank you, thank you so much.
I've never seen Conan laugh so sincerely before. This is so refreshing 😁😁
The comments from people who don't understand the world wasn't in 4K always are hilarious 😂😂
The crappy quality is mostly due to the fact that back in the day we used to stash the weed in the VCR.
Are they?
The poor quality adds character to it, I think it makes it more fun
awesome video. thanks for this
Who else is watching this on a water wheel powered kitchen TV and VCR in the post apocalypse?

Having kids changed Louis's whole perspective towards life and thereby his comedy.
He is a proof that to be really good in something and make it big, you have to spend time perfecting it.
I think I've heard these jokes before but Conan made them new again. Louis is the shit
