We'll likely be waiting until 2014 for any more of "Louie" on FX, but Louis C.K. isn't leaving our TV screens entirely for 2013.
HBO has a set a premiere date for his stand-up special "Louis C.K.: Oh My God." The one-hour special, taped in Phoenix during his recent tour, will air at 10 p.m. Et Saturday, April 13.
"Oh My God" will be C.K.'s fourth special for HBO. His last outing on the channel was "Louis C.K.: Shameless" in 2007; he's also done a "One Night Stand" special and a "Half-Hour Comedy Hour."
The new special will cover topics ranging from divorce to the food chain to "murder and mortality," HBO says.
