This skit is amazing. It shows how entitled we can be . We wanna have the best of everything. The analogy Dr Bigelow gave with the rare diseases meant that we are lucky to even have a normal pain-free life. The dog with three legs had a path and he went with it. Yes, four legs would make him happier, but who cares? Just live your life and be happy

Like Tommy Wisseau

Grodin's character is the movie cliche in which a wise person (usually an elderly man or woman but sometimes a child) disburses sage advise to the protagonist. The wise person always makes time for the protagonist. The character is also helpful for storytelling purposes because by having the protagonist reveal everything he's thinking he's also telling us the audience. Of course this is Louie so he has to turn the cliche on its head; the wise man doesn't care about Louie. He doesn't understand why Louie is talking to him, let alone why he's revealing personal details about his life. He's a reluctant guide who constantly reminds Louise that he's not the main character.

To a man with no religion, his doctor becomes his priest.

"Just pick a road and go down it, or don't" is part of my personal canon now.

“The only thing happier than a 3 legged dog? A 4 legged dog.”

I often think about people who are in constant pain, or people like the doctor said who are born with a condition and their whole lives they know only pain. Actually makes me a bit grateful, especially on days when I think I have nothing to be happy about. Like the doc says: every day without back pain is a blessing.

“I don’t understand why I’m hearing about this...” is literally a thought I have every day.

casting on this show was brilliant! it shows how funny he was and so many people wanted to work w him.

Dr. Bigelow is a humble genius.

I wonder how many people don't realize that this is Louis' real life inner dialogue. Both parts are him. What he thinks and then what he thinks about what he thinks. Whether you like him for his comedy or don't. Whether you dislike him for past bad decisions or don't care. You have to respect the depth of his philosophy on life even if you don't agree with it.
