Louie, Season 3

At the diner we learn something complicatedly poignant about Barney, which makes him yet another character to whom C.K., in his stand-up and on this show, has granted unlikely dimensions. Even as Barney fleeced comedians and in-laws, he attempted to befriend and bond with them, inviting them to his boat and, less glamorously, to Sweet Charity. Everyone blew him off, the misguided prick, but Barney went to the strip club anyway, it turns out, and did some meaningful bonding on his own. Through Robin?s and Louie?s glimpse into Barney?s unknown life at Sweet Charity, we discover that he couldn?t have been all bad. In this bleak hovel, he broke through the deadened air of transactional intimacy to forge many meaningful relationships?a testament to his tipping, one assumes, but also, it seemed, to something in his spirit that remained invisible in his other relationships.
