Star of hit TV shows 8 Out of 10 Cats and 10 O’clock Live, Jimmy is well known for his slick one liners and non-stop gags, but his acerbic wit and fast-paced comedy style are at their brilliant best when he has the stage to himself. Packed with over 100 minutes of brand new material, including too-rude-for-TV jokes, hilarious heckling, and even better put-downs, Jimmy pushes the boundaries of comedy and delivers a spectacular show.

Louis C.K.: Live at The Comedy Store
This material was developed and prepared over the last year or so, mostly in comedy clubs. This special kind of goes back to when he used to just make noises and be funny for no particular reason. It felt right to him to shoot this special in a club to give it that live immediate intimate feeling. The show is about an hour long. The opening act, who is seen at the beginning (good place for an opening act) is Jay London. One of his favorite club comics going way back to the late 80s when he first started in working in New York.

8 out of 10 Cats: Claws Out
8 Out Of 10 Cats: Claws Out is the uncensored version of the hilarious TV show hosted by Jimmy Carr, "8 out of 10 Cats". Along with Jimmy's team captains, Sean Lock and Dave Spikey, the show features special guest appearances by Alan Carr, David Williams, Christian Slater, Kelly Osborne, Patrick McGuiness and Vic Reeves. The irreverent comedy panel is based around a series of pointless (but funny) opinion polls, debates and surveys. Questions are designed to provoke participants and to set off endless studio arguments which, let's face it, can only be a good thing. 8 Out Of 10 Cats: Claws Out contains all the outrageous bits that were too rude to broadcast on TV--meaning it's essentially over 90 minutes of Jimmy & Co. slagging each other off and arguing about every subject under the sun (including, for example, "What's Best - Kittens or Christmas?").
