I have difficulty seeing Louis as cancelled if he's still booking gigs as a
standup. I recognize that some would consider any loss of professional
standing as cancellation. I'm not in that group.

I’m not sure about this: I’m not sure that winning a comedy album Grammy is the
marker of being back. He is selling out dates on his Euro-tour, but that is not
quite the same as being back to where he was 5 years ago, which was close to
the very top of his field.
I wouldn’t buy a ticket to see him, especially since he is apparently using his
show to make light of what he did. But I’m not sure what he did deserves a
lifetime ban or the full Harvey Weinstein.
“Louis C.K. brought home a Grammy on Sunday despite having admitted to sexual
misconduct and subsequently enduring almost five years in professional comedy
purgatory.
C.K.'s album, Sincerely Louis C.K., beat out five other nominees — including
Lewis Black, Kevin Hart and Chelsea Handler — for best comedy album at the 64th
Grammy Awards. The comeback album was his first release since the 54-year-old
was accused of masturbating in front of multiple female colleagues in November
2017….”
