"You know, Mr. Bernstein, if I hadn't been very rich, I might have been a really great man."

Ok, there are several that I really like, but it's been so long now that I can barely remember any that aren't on the two dvds that I've got.
(Female) bodybuilders, was a good one. Was there one where he tried out as an actor (not porn), I think I liked that one aswell.

The best of the ones that I know well, I think is the South Africa one.


P.s, why don't we try getting a thread going on Louis' page?

reply

My favorite is definitely survivalists, partly because I grew up not too far from the area Louis goes around (and we used to vacation around there, too). I've met people like Louis speaks to in it and he makes them open up like no one else could.
Also, does ANYONE at all have any episodes not released on the DVDs? Absolutely no luck here in the US for me to find anything.

reply

the episode where he meets blokes who trick women into going out with them with a variety of catchphrases etc, was pretty funny. Incredible show.

reply

I think thats the Hypnosis one, the guys name is Ross Jeffries, and guy whose character Tom Cruise plays in the movie " Magnolia" ( Frank TJ Mackey)is based on him.The DVD'S are out now for £5.99 each, there are 4 I believe, well worth checking out.

i have the "Nazi's" one which is like 80 mins( Diff from the KKK one) and the "Indian Guru's" one.( 60 mins) both on tape. cant see them being released on DVD anytime soon. does anyone have the Thai brides one on tape?

reply

Louie's just released a book too. Its not bad. Theres loads of American Nazi's in it. They come off about as sadly as you'd imagine.

reply

I think the wrestling one and the demolition derby ones are probably the best ones. The people taking part are quirky and entertaining without being a little bit tragic and pitiful. The guys who do the extreme wrestling are actually quite balanced.

reply

The nazi episode was jaw-dropping. Fine piece of television.

reply

I just saw the demolition derby, never knew people were into it that much!

reply

What Nazi episode is everyone talking about? No Nazi episode listed under Weird Weekends. Is it one of his other shows?

reply

God Hates Fags


...that is all

reply

Saw this show for the first time tonight out of coincidence. It was the one about UFOs. It was great so I guess it counts as my favourite. I wanna see more now. I really couldn't believe these people. That guy who claims to have killed 20 aliens and that guy channeling a being from another time frame. Hilarious!

Thai brides, hands down.

reply

My favourite is the televangelists episode - if you want to know what Louis is all about, check out this one

reply

Most are pretty good but I really liked the hypnotist one.

reply

my favorite episode it's "the city addicted to crystal meth", although I think it's not part of the weird weekend series.
