Lucky LuchO

I've never been addicted to TV programs, although I've seen a few, especially when I was child. Somehow, the TV was much more important as a child. It then goes into the background, especially when you grab a taste for film (I should also say women, parties and games, all those things you do when you start to mature) Anyway, if I remember some series. I remember being amazed at X-Files, especially the early seasons and the entire issue of UFOs, and further, with the sexy Agent Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson). Another series I remember was called "The Edge", here translated as "Al Borde de la Risa" and was a kind of mindless sitcom full of jokes and black humor. Some time went by Bill Plymtom drawings, and had a section where they asked about that they would be making celebrities like Elvis Presley or Michael Jackson (Elvis was always on Mars, danced for the Martians and Jackson was getting rhinoplasty)

In recent years I have seen a proliferation of TV series, and I tried to see some, but I was always bored. In any way interesting things I've seen on shows such as "How Not to Live Your Life" (quite funny), "QMDV" (very creative) and of course, “Big Bang Theory” and things like that. BUT, there is a serie that I really like it, is called "Lucky Louie" from my favorite comedian Louis CK. The series is based basically in his stand up comedy, and his jokes quite strong. The series has a season of 13 chapters and was taken off the air. ("Censored?) Basically, the series is a classic sitcom about a couple, a nurse and her husband, Louie, a fat loser. The series plays a variety of topics such as work, masturbation, lying, madness, children, religion, money, etc. as usual, but from a nihilistic perspective. The secondary characters are really good, especially the crazy uncle, the beautiful and evil daughter, the black neighbors, the friend dealer that sell drugs to kids, etc.

anyway, the series reminds me of a poem by Bukowski where he was asked about what kind of TV series could be good and he replied: "I would like a series where the protagonist was a guy who works all day in a factory, who cannot afford the money for nothing, which has a wife waiting at home shit, cooking a meal of shit.” Anyway, the series is not as black as that, but its close, from a delicious humor and good performances. As in the poem and on TV, Bukowski and CK were not heard. People do not want this series. People want beautiful people with beautiful stories!
That's it!
