Thought I’d catch a few episodes of it this morning due to not making my way down the City, f*ck me, what brilliant television. Really is a TV great, Larry David, excruciatingly non PC. Basil Fawlty would be proud of him.

Re: Curb Your Enthusiasm
Fantastic show. I was alerted to it originally many years back when Ricky Gervais interviewed Larry David for a TV documentary. Watched two episodes on the back of that and immediately went out and bought everything that was available, which I think was only two seasons at that stage.
Tracey Ullman is brilliant in the current series.

Re: Curb Your Enthusiasm
It's brilliant.
Surely now even exceeding the success of Seinfeld which I also liked.
When you consider much of the dialogue is ad-libbed it makes it all the more clever.
Larry touches on topics that most shows fear to address... And does so being hysterical and non PC.. but as it usually makes Larry the butt of the joke it gets away with it. Very clever.
So many great episodes.
Palestinian chicken is my favourite episode although I must be honest that this season (11) is very very good.

Re: Curb Your Enthusiasm
I can 100% understand why too, Seinfeld definitely more of a 90s American sitcom.Originally posted by Wash DC Blue View PostFabulous show.
I never got Seinfeld at all, but I love CYE.
My favourite episode is when he picks up a hooker so he can use an HOV Lane to get to a baseball game on time.
But George and Kramer are unbelievable characters. But yeah it’s not on the level of curb.

What platform do you watch it on?Originally posted by Michael Morris View PostI tried it a few years ago and didn't manage the end of the first episode.
Went back to it earlier this year and have loved it.
It's hilarious and we have watched it from episode 1 right up to to the latest episode earlier this week.

Re: Curb Your Enthusiasm
That episode was used to acquit a man accused of murder - his alabi was that he was at that baseball game - and the curb cameras picked him up.Originally posted by Wash DC Blue View PostFabulous show.

Re: Curb Your Enthusiasm
Did you know that Cardiff features in the series with Brian Cranston? They used a stock camera shot of the Hayes in between scenes in one of the episodes. Blink and you’ll miss it. I remember watching it and thinking something about LA looked very familiar, even though I’ve never been there.
