How Louis C.K. Tried to Fire Pete Davidson off of SNL 

Brilliant

Wait that's what f***ING happened? I thought my TV broke

Read the description... That's not what happened.

If the power was out then why was the mic still on? Video is blacked out, not the club!

Lots of folks in this thread with a sharp sense of humor. Lol

Most the comedians I know, or at least the funny ones do / have / did. Actually Louis C.K. doesn't have much room to talk, on his show he showed when he was younger he stole scales from the science room of his school when he was a kid and traded them to his dealer.

@@sm00gzbear Pete is exactly the kind of guy Louis would hate- fit, successful at a young age, sense of style, fucks hot girls- he tried to take that away from him

@@sm00gzbear lol you understand that story is a joke on stand up and 95% isn’t true. But keep believing Louis ck stole scales in school

@@fedfreds832 Excuse me for wanting to believe his show may have been authentic to his actual life, but I guess it is still hollywood.

@@quiksix25 yeah but if youre famous for being famous youre really just a kardashian by another name. Not that it should be taken. Its just.. like if youre a cop you wouldnt try to do a firemens job.

They’re wrong twice was the joke and it makes a world of difference pal

"career" looooooool

Pete Davidson wouldn't understand Louis CK's level of comedy in a million years. Pete sucks

@@ewoknroll #1 Your opinion is subjective in nature not objective. #2 Your judgement of someone else's (that you probably never met) level of comprehension is sad, disappointing and probably baseless. #3 Considering the average lifespan of a human, your timeline of a "million years" is not relative and ludicrous which is (of course) no surprise as it seems that you have put little to no thought into your comment. #4 The fact that you are so beyond naive and ignorant that you are blissfully unaware and just how inane your comment is, now that is damn amusing. #5 Get more oxygen, you need it.

Yikes, someone is a loser and projecting 😂 people have careers dummy, just because you can't even hold a job didn't mean we're not killing it ❤​@lisachuck999

it's a fake story. don't get too worked up over it

He wasn’t even high “at work” like he was done for the day and got ready to leave, toked up, and left his dressing room. Louis CK is famously a stoner who had several minutes of standup over years about getting high after shows, WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT PETE DID! Absolutely insane behaviour on the part of Louis CK, clown behaviour. The rantings of an egotistical idiot.

I mean Louis exposing himself to women knowing it would make them uncomfortable, this is the EXACT KIND of person he is. Willing to abuse his power at every turn SPECIFICALLY when it makes less powerful people feel completely worthless.

@@williemays2 brah - all I’m saying is, it sounds exactly like something Louie would do hahah. The weird off-base-morality mixed with awkwardly handling said morals in a way that contradicts what he’s trying to accomplish, is literally his entire persona. The only thing missing is sexual harassment

More like wack-off behavior, amirite

💯 😭😭

Also fitting cause Louis CK does the "that didn't happen" bit all the time.

fr if I’m high & some weird shit happens, I just go “damn this is a crazy movie” and go about my day

It‘s always when u take something that weird sh*t happens and u just can‘t believe this just happened.

@@k.k.7797 😂😂😂

There’s an old Christmas episode and they’re all singing some Christmas carols, and it is clear that many of them are on a variety of drugs. Watching Jane Curtain try to stay attached this this reality and sing and clap on tempo at the same time is briefly hilarious.

Louis C.K. ratted a boss that was relaxed about Belushi. How would he think it would go another way?

@Cody Truesdale ya all those sketches with the actors sweating and reading their lines too fast were great. I especially loved the lack of timing

He should have been fired for not being funny.

@@johntallanger4036 wow, edgy.

The loudest condemning voices are usually up to worse things of their own

Louis didn’t do anything wrong

This is a doltish comparison. For one, I would sacrifice a hundred petes for 10 minutes with Louie. Two, he did nothing horrible or even comparible to what Bill Cosby did. Even among those 4, pete is no where in the conversation. He just put his D in some pretty girls, he obviously could barely contribute to a dying show. When every other sketch is a chad sketch, maybe he *SHOULD* stop smoking weed while he's working.

as much as I think it was a bitch move for him to go tell Loren Michael's, the accusations carry any weight. "when Louie called and asked if he can jerk it over the phone, I was too afraid to hang up!" lmao makes no sense

@@hammurds Yes he did, and you know he did. If a homeless person did what Louis did to your mother you'd want them arrested.

And later his career hits the skids.

But it’s ok when people did it to Shane Gillis 🤔 Also didn’t Pete threaten to end his own career with suicide?

It kinda sounds to me like he was trying to help him.

@@cisium1184 Not Really. C K could have a private talk with Davidson instead; Now C K needs to get himself together & I hope he does.

@@geraldstephens6612 Agreed. If you were seriously concerned about someone you would talk with the person directly or maybe to one of their loved ones or close friends, what you wouldn’t do is go directly to their boss.

Or they hate weed

Lol what is this strange logic

@Miles Doyle the fuck are you talkin about, dipshit??

@@brockmccaw4259 lol probably rang true with you, you seem hurt. Got drank?

@Miles Doyle go into your closet and pray, do not proselytize in the streets like the gentiles do.

He is charming and .

Holy shit that's really clever. Not the biggest Pete Davidson fan but this bit is great

Well this bit would be funny if it were true. Not only is he a bad stand up comic and SNL actor, he's also a liar.

@@PostSasso oh my god, a stand up comedian made up a bit for his routine?? someone call the press!

@@PostSasso Prove it.

@@PostSasso Damn for someone who thinks such, you sure did click this Pete Davidson stand up comedy video

Coffee is the main export, D.A.

@@sideshowboob officially

The production of The Blues Brothers is responsible for the other half.

This never happened. Pete Davidson is the most overrated thick lipped white guy I've ever seen.

@@PostSasso sure thing, Louie

I remember one time this nutso customer complained about me ' having a temper tantrum" and 'kicking things everywhere ' because I gently slid something on the floor out of the way with my foot because my hands were full. So my manager called me into the back and was like "Just pretend you're getting in trouble so this crazy bitch will leave." 😂😂

I’ve gotten in trouble twice at a radio station I used to work at. Once for using the word “lovechild” in a conversation with my friend and coworker, and once for making a joke about writing fanfiction during slow news days. Both times I was brought into the office to a stupefied supervisor who goes “look I’m supposed to talk to you but honestly people are hardass pussies these days, you’re one of our best anchors and I couldn’t give less of a shit about you talking about fanfiction in the office, get the fuck out of here.” Like, yes sir 😅

This made me laugh

That never happened

you lucky, lucky bastard

That especially stands out for me because even "at the time" I'd already heard the rumors about him and I'm not even in the business. It was already coming out that female comedians were warning each other about him so I was kinda surprised that Lorne was letting him host

Jimmy Fallon‘s replacement is the best “nervous cool guy” since Jimmy Fallon. And also, what does Louis CK know about comedy? He’s got nothing on Kim Kardashian’s boyfriend. When he said “No doubt homie” that always makes me laugh. He’s a national treasure.

Its really great also because it foreshadows the eventual "and then, one morning" line. Just great writing

Yeah that was funny af

They didn't even get it was a nod to Louis.

What part of the video is that?

Nvm found it! SUPER subtle! Starts 6:04

Agreed, Pete’s joke is really funny and honest. I had an employer that wanted to date this cougar from another company. She didn’t want him, so I started hooking up with her. After telling him, my employer fired me.

Underrated comment

This story is fabricated, he just chose someone that's fallen from grace

Underrated. That was top notch.

I'm telling!!!

this should be pinned to the top!

Your friend is the real HERO in the scenario-Bucky..,sad and pathetic comment from you. You need to quit your disgusting addiction

​@@bobby_c07alright, doughtnut

ahhhhhh. massive alcholic who is soulfully jealous at the fact his life sucks. its classic. it seems like thats a running theme in these comments. alcoholics dont like weed smokers.

Lorne Michael's has actually been notoriously unforgiving when finding out cast or crew are partying with coke, heroin, things like that... ever since Chris Farley od'd.

Not true

SNL is like it's okay to do drugs; just don't phucking die from it. We don't need that again.

Celebrities have pharmaceutical quality street drugs. To die from them gets harder and harder.

@@yukonfarnsworth1688 There's always the big 100%-legal stand-by!

Yooo for real. There's a few jokes that go over the crowds head throughout his entire special.

You gotta keep in mind that not everyone watched 00s MTV in the audience. It became a second rate channel after they stopped you know, showing music videos.

They’re too subtle for most I think. I think it’s clever.

I don't get the reference

@@j.t.footman4425 hah. His audience doesn't find his jokes funny maybe.

This makes more sense

wait...this is the same guy that has been struggling with addiction and rehab numerous times, right? oh, so the whole using drugs thing no bigs...pete was right to keep taking drugs, as he himself hasnt wanted or attempted to quit and has addressed--on the show, podcasts, standup--his problem with addiction....funny how once he started handling his addictions circa this special, he got a movie and career did well---after quitting drugs...weird...i guess louis was an idiot, and didnt see a talented young guy wasting his shit eh....yawn...(lame ass to use louis' scandal as own fodder due to own childish petty revenge on the very thing you yourself has addressed and rehab for addiction of drugs)...cough cough cough

@@eldouche7300 your username makes sense

Did you watch the whole video before you typed this?

Yeah.. louis is desperate for attention and loves people saying he s brilliant. I mean everybody does but he actually needs to be in the centre of attention.

Yeah imagine he was in someone's hotel room and that person said " I'm whipping out my junk, if you don't want to be part of this then PLEASE leave" but then even though he wanted to leave he just stayed for no reason. Then later he would somehow have the BALLS to claim to be a victim. Imagine that 🤣

Funny how everyone thought Louie was the goat. Now everyone likes to criticise him for a kink. If he exposed himself to women without their consent he could go to jail. It's also funny how charges were never brought against him. And it's funny how a talentless fuck nut like Pete can actually comment about something that never happened. Or it did, and he was high as a kite on the SNL show and was completely useless at the table read, had no sketches or contributions but he wanted to be on screen anyway. Of course his weed smoking was an issue.

STROKE your career away

I think that was Louie’s way of showing concern

@@tattoofthesun sadly a douche move when doing it in front of 8 other people at work

@@tattoofthesun Then pull the person aside and have the conversation in private. If you ever think someone is making terrible life choices, do not call them out in front of everybody, have a conversation with others (their boss of all people) about it and make them intervene.

@@tattoofthesun others should’ve shown concern for his weird ass kink & sexual harassment

@@-Anjel but it didnt' get him fired, it gave him a bit and probably lit a fire under his ass. Louis did him a favor

Exactly

You’re right it was more about the unfunny rookie

@@Stoned_skits420 haha why? you are on a “pete davidson is not funny” crusade in these comments. why spend your day that way? i’m 99% sure you’re bored and trolling for fun. but if not, i just can’t imagine wasting a day away yelling at people for enjoying Pete Davidson’s. there’s gotta be something better to do.

@@Stoned_skits420 please explain to me how a person looks at their schedule for the day and goes, ok, 4 hours trolling Pete Davidson fans. yes. this is a good use of a day.

...And how can you tell that from listening to a stand-up bit from "the rookie"? I have no idea how you came to that conclusion. It's way off in my opinion.

That occurred to me too. It makes me think that Louis REALLY got on Lorne’s back about it.

I would bet that because Louie was so famous/respected, Lorne promised Louie that he would talk to Pete about it. So this was Lorne's way of being a man of his word without firing Pete.

Jesus imagine if Louis C.K. met Chris Farley or John Belushi....

@@tonyjackson4078 If louis met Farley he'd probably have to change his stage name to Louis K.O'd

I get that your morality and ethics are all relative and you have beliefs about how if someone else did something somewhere at some other time then its 'strange' if its not acceptable at another time, however, one of the reasons why they have a little ceiling on drug abuse at work (at work) is that SNL did indeed have people ruin their show, ruin their careers and ruin other people's careers when those people were ripped high at work. So 40 years later, with the benefit of funerals, wasted careers, shows and skits that went badly, losing money on druggies, they do indeed have some limits now. "Ya but ... before some one else did something! hee haww" you idiot. You're what is wrong with the world today. You.

At least he asked for consent!

hehehe i get it, you funny

ba dum cha🥁

Now that's funny... lol

Pete misread the situation. Louie didn’t get on him because he smokes weed, but because he ignored him , did not acknowledge him or show him respect while everybody else was. It’s a power thing. Weed was just the excuse

agree. you can tell theres a seething asshole inside CK

he's introspective and reflective in his standup, i think that's the opposite of being a sociopath

He never assaulted a woman. He just was awkward.

"assaulting" LMAO. actual brain damaged take.

Woah did you watch the same video we did?!

Are you okay? Had a rough week? Something wrong?

Well when you have weak material like that one ,opportunistic shitting on Louie because of what happened,you definitely need all the endorsements you can get. Louis C.K has a new special and it's really worth your time, can't say the same about Pete's,watched it and it was a colossal waste of time,mediocre and weak stuff really

@@EckoUntitl I don't know Pete's other work, but this particular bit was mostly excellent stand-up. High quality. I thought the way he ended the bit ruined it though, made it seem too personal, and yes I agree, "opportunistic".

@@justsomeone5936 I found this one really bad,his older material is better but he repeats the same bits on different occasions. The biggest indicator for lack of talent in a comedian are moments like these ,when they jump at the opportunity to shit on someone of C.K caliber. I prefer the ones who actually have unique an well crafted material but hey that's my opinion.

@@Johnywang1 Do you have crohn's disease?

@@Johnywang1 Mind you, I’m sure he smokes weed for recreational purposes as well, but you have an awful lot of audacity to call someone a “dirtbag” for getting relief from an extremely painful disease. Are AIDS and Cancer patients “dirtbags” for medicating with marijuana instead of starving to death as a result of the combination of a life threatening lack of appetite and the inability to keep from vomiting any food they manage to eat due to treatments they must endure to fight for their life? Are those cancer patients dirtbags or are you just Uber-judgmental to deflect from whatever it is that makes you…well, you. Yes, I know Pete Davidson doesn’t have AIDS or Cancer, but your misguided, and indeed immoral moral grandstanding was in direct response to his having a different painful disease. Medical Marijuana is prescribed to thousands of AIDS and Cancer patients. Your lack of empathy and insistence that people do things your way speaks volumes about what kind of person you are. Since you seem obnoxiously intent on telling other people how to be, perhaps you would benefit from listening to what others think and respecting them. Over 55 Million people in the United States (where Pete Davidson lives) are WILLING TO ADMIT that they currently smoke pot despite the social stigma around it due to archaic reasoning such as yours. The majority of Americans must not have heard the Gospel of Haris Bokhari as more people believe that it’s socially acceptable than the contrary.

@Sizzlin' Shizzle sounds like CK craves power, whether it's wanking in front of women that have not consented to that act, or kicking a peon who dared to not acknowledge the court he was holding after SNL taped. I loved Louis CK's comedy and how his crafty mind worked before, in stand up, but you could still see that nasty ego poking through, that glint in his eye. Maybe it comes from working around a few predators, you get a feel for who really cannot be trusted.

I doubt he saw him. It's more likely he smelled it. Something all these people mentioning the blow years seem to miss as well.

If ur scared to death of being fired u wouldn't be smoking anything at all.

Holy shit...imagine that Louis CK was asked by Lorne to complain about another cast member smoking pot, just so he could relive the feeling he had in the 1970s when he said: "I don't fucking care...fuck off" (as he's rolling a joint and doing lines in front of the complainer) and laughing about it afterwards...
