Eh. He's Hollywood Fat. The show made plenty of fat jokes at his expense and he was clearly meant to be a "fat character". Obviously, he's not *really* fat, but it's the closest thing we've gotten to a fat gay man on TV that I can think of.

Vanessa's speech was seriously one of the best directed scenes I've ever seen on television. Shit.
Awww, you sound so fun.
Well, that's sort of the point. Louis is capable of being hilarious and is when he feels like it. But when he feels like addressing a serious issue, he does it. The whole point of the show is to break TV convention of expectations so when people are all "be more funny, Louie!" it just seems like they're missing the…
HOW DARE ANYONE HAVE EMOTIONS
It's kind of disturbing to me how difficult the idea of "don't treat other people like shit" is to grasp for so many people.
RIP Happy Endings
Her solution is literally "let fat women speak for themselves". If you disagree with that, then I don't really know what to say. I mean, I could call you a dick, but that'd be pretty mean, so I'll just…leave it at that.
Louie isn't here to make you guffaw all of the time. It's a show that's here to do whatever the fuck Louis CK feels like doing. If you have no use for a show that doesn't make you laugh, don't watch it.
Why should there be consequences? Why do people have to be treated worse than others because they choose to be fat?
Or maybe just don't treat people like shit for a reason as superficial as whether or not they're fat? Is that so hard? Is it *that* hard to not treat people worse than others based on physical appearance?
The knee-jerk reaction that some people have to any "social justice" article is really amazing. HOW FUCKING DARE YOU TELL ME TO TREAT PEOPLE EQUALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Ginsburg has always been mentally ill" is the new "IPOD NANO"
Well, Greenblatt took over at NBC in 2011, which not coincidentally is when the tides turned for the worse for the show. NBC was generally supportive of the show in the first two seasons, it wasn't until the hiatus that things when south.
It's basically 30 Rock 2.0, which sounds great. But I'm not sure 30 Rock would survive on current NBC, so I'm a little worried about it.
Jesus, Bad Judge looks fucking awful.
Yeah I don't want 15 seasons for Bob's Burgers, but it feels like it's just starting to make a cultural impact and I would be sad to see it go now. I don't think the move is the death sentence that some think it is so I hope we can get a few more years out of it.
I would hardly say any of this is "obvious", but it's interesting, nonetheless.
I wasn't really feeling this one. Just seemed like a retread of the "Selena says something she shouldn't and then has to fix it, oops" formula. I thought the show had moved beyond that.
@sg_standard:disqus I can't. There's literally no reply button. Is this happening for anyone else?
