jerseyjoea This is for season 9 only, I loved all others. Not the same, like an old boxer trying to come back way past his prime. The show is flat, jokes are lame, do you really need the money that bad.I can only hope it gets better, can't get much worse.What's with this "the minimum length for reviews is 5 lines of text"

BoomerDT Considering how bleak and depressing the new has been lately. the one positive glimmer is that Larry David has finally decided to do another year of "Curb" after a 4 year hiatus."CYE" has been accurately described as an R rated version of "Seinfeld" and I'm sure that everyone on this site knows that LD and Jerry were the creators of TV's biggest sitcom. As "Seinfeld" was,this is pretty much also a show about nothing. LD is playing himself and the LD character is a completely self-absorbed jerk. Rude, usually cheap. a complete busy body and the most genuinely obnoxious person ever on TV.(In short, what might have happened if George Costanza, Larry's alter-ego, had ended up rich, famous and living in Brentwood with a trophy wife.) Although there have been other loathsome TV characters, I can't imagine a writer making that person himself. Maybe Gleason as Ralph Cramden comes to mind, but "The Honeymooners" would always finish with the sweet scene when Ralph apologizes and hugs Alice. As in "Seinfeld" "CYE" does not allow any type of sentimental imagery. There is a bit of similarity between "Homeymooners" and "CYE." Quite a few of season 1-7 episodes deal with the misadventures of 2 married couples, Larry and the very hot Cheryl Hines and Jeff Garlin and Susie Essman, as their good friends, the Greenes. The rotund Garlin is also Larry's manager and quite a few episodes deal with the repercussions that occur after some of their various moronic schemes, as which happened with Ralph and Ed Norton. Hines actually has the Alice Kramden slow burn down pretty well. But absolutely no similarities between Susie and Trixie Norton, whose anger was limited to folding her arms, scowling and mouthing an exasperated "Oh Ed!" Susie Essman is the most incredibly foul mouthed spouse to have ever existed in the sitcom world and she steals every scene she's in.Their are more than a few clunkers in the 80 episodes and Larry can get on anyone's nerves after a while. Still, Seinfeld fans should love this. I would just hope in the renewal that the guest appearances by Ted Danson, Mary Steenburgen and Richard Lewis, playing themselves, are cut down, as well as a few other of the semi-regulars. Also keep Larry single as in season 8, more script possibilities.

stilwelljim Like Alan Partridge, which is a show from the UK (which pre-dates this) which is a similarly cynical grumpy older guy, but far far far less funny. At points it's superb, but overall it's only OK. Very watchable, but not brilliant.I would say American comedies aren't that great. They're put together by a team of 30+ people, whereas great British comedies, which are far superior are usually written in a closer knit team of 2-3. Case in point American office vs The Office, and this vs Alan Partridge. I've watched maybe two dozen episodes of this, so feel although I haven't seen them all, I have seen enough to comment. 4/10, watchable, but highly over-rated.
