Larry David: Curb Your Enthusiasm

I watched all the seasons of Curb, but I just watched the doc, that should work as a prelude of the series, now. Incredible how they pick the original ideas in this documentary and put into a series in a totally better way. Glad that the show evoluted so much, because this begining was full of unfunny stuff. Larry doing the stand up just didn't work. The supporting actings also weren't good at all. In the show all the situations were so much well made and much more funny. Sad that the 11th season was so terrible that I couldn't even finish. Anyway, Larry made history with Curb and did a masterpiece show if we delete from memory the prelude season and the 11th one.

Curb Your Enthusiasm is the best comedy on TV! I've talked with Larry and he is as funny as on TV! Watch it! Too bad that the three big networks don't realize that their shows are so bad mostly because they use a cookie cutter method in creating shows!

This is hands down the best comedy on television. I started watching from the beginning and it gets better every week. The two best episodes to date were the one where Larry David accidentally trips Shaq at a Lakers' game and the one where he interrupts the baptism of his future brother in law when he mistakenly thinks he's being drowned. I am predicting this show wins the Emmy for Outstanding Comedy.

This is the funniest thing that you will ever see on television. You thought Seinfeld was funny??? Think again you fool. Larry David saved his best for last apparently. This series will make you laugh so hard that you will miss part of it because you will have to go to your bedroom and change your underwear because you peed your pants. It is that funny.

Although CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM isn't exactly an in-depth look at the creative process of a comic who's preparing for a big show, it remains fun to watch nonetheless. David's writing is strongly sensed in many of his scenes (although CYE is presumably improvised), while he makes himself look like a lost little boy who just wants to do stand up being bullied by showbusiness. Pressure keeps closing in on him for the entire hour of this mockumentary (one that isn't as good as SPINAL TAP, but faaar surpasses Blair Witch), with the most exciting points coming in when we actually see David doing his stand up act ("one thing I admire about Hitler is he didn't take shit from magicians"). aLL IN ALL, ITS WORTH THE OBSCURE PROGRAMMING OF HBO TO SEE THIS.

Incredibly funny comedy-special about SEINFELD writer/co-creator Larry David, filmed in a raw/mockumentary style similar to THE OFFICE, that ended up being the premise for the hit show CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM. In many ways, it can be looked at as the pilot, and is as equally hilarious as the show's best episodes. This story follows Larry (with Jeff Garlin, Cheryl Hines, Richard Lewis, and other series favorites in tow) as he tries to rebuild his standup career, and despite going very smoothly, conflict can never unstick itself from the half-billionaire who can't afford a closed-mouth. ***½ (out of four)

It began as a "must watch", but in 2021 it's simply a rehash of the same predicaments of the past seasons. Nothing new, even though he attempts a spin on the same. The last straw, was his blatant liberalism overtaking this latest episode with Vindman taking the lead, and David's political stance. My answer, wthf cares what the elitist Larry David thinks?
