[@zxbc1]

@@eiccoaching8642 Actually I thought his Saville episode was super insightful. It shows you how even a close associate can be "charmed" by his performance to overlook his overt creepiness and predatory signs. You should remember also the Saville episode was the first one, where he clearly was slightly out of his elements still and was grasping the format. Towards the end, especially in the Max Clifford one, Louis went completely beast mode.

Louis Theroux is the UK's most underrated comedian. He knows exactly how to tell this story.

[@tomrose2644]

Matt Gilbertson He’s not even a comedian by trade but is just naturally funny

[@RFC3514]

That might be because he's not a comedian. As a documentarist, I can't really think of _anyone_ more highly rated than him.

[@616CC]

Haha he cant start interviewing the people he does if they thought he was a comedian he’d get chased off and we’d never see the material haha So you’ve got to be a sly, but yes, shh, he’s a comedian

It time and time again amazes me about Theroux how crazy he is to try things and yet, he is not comfortable to speak about those experiences, or not able for some reason to conjure up words for those, yet it is shown in documentary... After a while you realize how powerful his documentaries are, but just seeing this guy in interview or on street, cannot believe, nobody would hire him. You just have to see it. He's like war journalist in front line but processing some of most taboo or difficult subjects in civilian current world. Difficult also for him which makes him great journalist.
