Louie: The Complete First Season(TV) (2010)
A mix of sketches and stand-up focusing on a recently divorced man raising his two children. For more about Louie: The Complete First Season and the Louie: The Complete First Season Blu-ray release, see the Louie: The Complete First Season Blu-ray Review Starring: Louis C.K. » See full cast & crew Louie: The Complete First Season Blu-ray, Video QualityLouie has a very distinct look for a sit-com. Shot using the Red One digital camera, the show has a more cinematic quality than most cable comedies, which jives with the Louie's storytelling—each episode, after all, is basically a short film. The show makes the transition to Blu-ray easily, with 1080p/AVC-encoded digital-to-digital transfers that look fantastic. The only real anomaly here is that in the pilot episode, there's aliasing galore—on clothing, brick walls, Louie's microphone when he does his stand-up routine, etc. I'll chalk this up to Louis C.K. and his production crew not being familiar with the new technology they were using, because in subsequent episodes the problem is almost entirely absent. (There are still a few spots where you'll notice a slight shimmer.) The combination of the Red One rig and good lenses makes for a formidable level of clarity, and the in-focus areas of the image are frequently tack-sharp. You'll usually be able to make out each whisker of Louie's ginger beard, and clothing textures in close-ups are finely resolved. Since the cinematography uses a lot of shallow depth of field, focus can sometimes slip, but this is inherent in any handheld production. Color can be somewhat pallid at times, with pinkish skin tones, but for the most part the picture is realistically toned, with deep black levels. In one of his commentary tracks, Louis C.K. promises a slightly different aesthetic for the second season, but I wouldn't change things too much. Louie looks great. Louie: The Complete First Season Blu-ray, Audio QualityThere are a few minor issues with the show's lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround sound presentation, but nothing crippling. Since most of the dialogue seems to be recorded on location, there are instances when voices sound a bit muddy in the mix. This never gets to the point where it's unclear what's being said, but it's worth noting that the dialogue isn't always as clean as it could be. And while each episode technically comes with a 5.1 track, the rear channels hardly get any play at all. There's some extremely quiet ambience panned into the surrounds—room noise, basically—but that's about it. Otherwise, the audio presentation is solid, never spectacular but certainly serviceable. The disc includes optional English SDH, French, and Spanish subtitles in easy to read lettering. Louie: Other Seasons
