... He's still glad the stupid deer head died.

Louis C.K. returns to episodic television with the premiere of a new show simply entitled Louis, premiering on FX Thursday, April 1st.  I caught a promo (Is it a teaser if it's for a TV show?) during tonight's episode of nip/tuck, it shows him and his two daughters trying to struggle out of a packed NY subway car. His series on HBO Lukcy Louie was short-lived, airing only 12 episodes in 2006. There's not much to be found on the internet as far as what his new show Louis is all about, but it sounds like it'll be formatted a bit like Seinfeld, with a plot revolving around his own life, peppered with bits of stand up in between. After watching about half of his comedy special Chewed Up a few weeks ago, I pretty much required to see the rest of it immediately. I was also hooked with FX's other new comedy series this year, The League, which aired late 2009, so I'm hoping for a winning combination for Louis. (If you haven't spent a couple hours watching The League yet, I recommend doing so now. There's only six episodes.)
