Hot new special on Netflix. Louis, you're back on Netflix, man.
I'm back on Netflix starting today, this morning. I don't know, midnight? I don't know when they put it on. It was on when I woke up.
How does it feel as opposed to throwing it on your website?
I mean, it's only been a few hours, but it's nice because it's a little outside the fence more. Yeah. Folks can wander over. Right. You know what I mean? It's global.
How did Louis C.K. describe releasing his new Netflix special versus his website?
And it's all over the world. Yeah. So is my website, but it was a closed circuit. Right. And so it's nice. People can stumble on it. I know some people's algorithm won't give it to them.
but uh but you know that's true you ever see someone else's algorithm at their house you're like what the hell is this yeah spanish different singing yeah it's crazy indian movies yeah for a while i was on my dad's netflix and i would just stumble and i'd be like you and my mom are watching weird shit yeah it's all just like korean drama type stuff yes yeah it's funny korean and you said spanish and indian my mom goes all british uh like cop show Oh, yeah, those are good.
Like Happy Valley or something? You ever see that one?
What do you call it? The one that's a town's name and it's really morose and dark. They're all morose and dark and boring. I hate it.
Broadchurch, that was one.
Broadchurch, yes. I like those. Really good. What's his name? David something or other is in that? Yeah. Then he was a Doctor Who. My kids got into Doctor Who, so I watched Doctor Who for a while.
People love Doctor Who. I don't know what Doctor Who is. I've never seen a minute of it. Yeah, they're different Doctor Whos.
Yeah, so Doctor Who's a, it's actually not a guy, that's not the person's name. It's the name of the show. He's just called The Doctor. And he's the guy who lives in a telephone booth that's really big inside. And he travels through time. Really?
Which TV shows and how do algorithms influence what people discover on streaming?
Yeah. Oh, okay. You could be fucking with us. No, it's what it's about. But it's a movie. It was a TV show back in the 50s. It used to be in black and white in Britain. And every few years he dies. Okay. Because they don't pay the actors very much. And then he regenerates as a new person. So there's been a lot of people that have played the doctor. And the newest doctor who's evolved in like a new genre. Also, once in a while the show dies.
Mm-hmm.
And then it comes back with a new group of writers and producers and a new cluster of actors. Yeah. So those are some of the doctors. Wow.
So it's almost like a James Bond thing. Yeah.
So that guy down there, David, what the fuck is his name? David Tennant was a great doctor. And so was, who's two down from him. The woman's pretty good too. Peter Capaldi is really good. Matt Smith, I wasn't that into. Okay. And then if you go, can you see the first one? Wow. Because I grew up. So many. The first one was in black. The first one I saw was the guy, he's holding an orange and red thing. Oh, yeah. He was the first one I remember when I was a kid. Is that Al Lubell? Al Lubell. He was the first actor. Al Lubell.
Look at the iterations. This is crazy.
Do your kids turn you on to a lot of shows?
Yeah, yeah, I like what they watch. I like a lot of what they watch. But this one was pretty cool. Anyway, how did we end up talking about Doctor Who?
I don't know. I've never gotten up to the bottom of that. Broadchurch.
Algorithms.
Broadchurch, yeah. Broadchurch, yes. She also loves that Sherlock Holmes show.
Yeah, Sherlock Holmes with Ben... Yes, yes. And Martin Freeman, who I love. Yes. From The Office.
Oh, the blonde guy. He's good. Yeah, he's great in a lot of stuff. Yeah. That was a great Sherlock Holmes rendition. Yes, it was. It was fucking clever as hell. Yes. Really well filmed, really taught. Mm-hmm. Because we did one in America called Elementary, and it wasn't as good.
Yeah, but it was like a CBS show.
That's true. It had that CSI look, that kind of cloudy beige look I hate.
