Curb Your Enthusiasm

Posted by Gavin Bowman on Wednesday, June 01, 2005 at 1:14 AM

Aside from the scenery, one of the things that made the long drive to Las Vegas enjoyable was the comfortable rented mini-van and the DVD player.

At one point we watched an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm. I don't know exactly how popular or well known this show is, either here or in the UK, but I do know for sure that it's not enough and that most people I've mentioned it to just give me blank looks. It features Larry David, the co-creator of Seinfeld playing himself, which seems to boil down to a taller, thinner, less politically correct incarnation of George Costanza. Everything in Larry's life is complicated, and hilarious.

This is the funniest show on TV, if you haven't seen it, go and see it now. Unless extremely, brutally bad language bothers you, in which case stay exactly where you are and don't watch the show. Ever.

Yes it's a great show isn't it.

Also I get a strange deja-vu watching it, it's almost like another version of seinfeld.

When I watch CYE I can imagine the same show but with the seinfeld characters.

That's true, it does have a similar feel. It should be enough to fill the void for anyone missing Jerry & co.
