This is the first I've heard of the movie. I love the idea, but after watching a few clips I'm not really convinced. It seems more like a savage indictment against… mildly obnoxious people, I guess?

Lucky Louie is a very different show. It is intentionally set up like a 1970s American sitcom, and without that context you might not get half as much out of it. It very earnestly pursues the sort of conventions that Louie busts apart. Just to be clear, since this is something a lot of people rag on when they dismiss…
