The big bet that Louis C.K. made on “Horace & Pete” has not paid off.
The comic told radio host Howard Stern on Monday that he lost “millions of dollars” over season 1 of the drama series, which premiered unannounced on his website LouisCK.net in January.

Being an actor or an entertainer one's self certainly helps a person understand the quirks and sacrifices involved when it comes to having a relationship. There's the amount of attention that's desired (or downright required) to make each other happy; the time not spent in the same place, let alone physically together; and the attention that needs paying to other people who theoretically have nothing to do with the relationship. It's a lot to »
