Would love if they done another series but it's not looking that likely. Still 8 seasons has enough quality. One of my favourite scenes when Larry,Marty and Jeff go to see richard lewis's burlesque girlfriends show behind his back and larry notices a mole on her breast and tells her to get it checked out at the doctor. She goes and comes back to say she actually wants breast reduction much to the shallow fcuker lewis's anger. His reaction to her amd larry when she's tells him and the bollicking he gives larry after  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tR6BDQdSYL0" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tR6BDQdSYL0 "you looked at her mole with a goddamn telescope like galilleo jerking off from 40 feet away " Whats your favourite characters/scenes lads? Leon, Larry and Lewis are priceless

Leon is a serious buzzer! I love the way when the family leaves to go back to New Orleans that Leon just stays with Larry anway.
It's a brilliant show though - the storylines are generally pretty clever too. 8 seasons is probably enough though - would be a shame to see the show get diluted and crap!

Love this show. What about the episode where he's putting an obituary in the paper and it's supposed to say 'Beloved Aunt' but instead it says 'Beloved C*nt' Seinfeld is class too (which Larry David co-wrote), been watching it from Se1Ep1 over the past year or so, on Se6 at the moment. Will move on to watch Curb from the start after that. ------------- 17 International Caps 16 International Goals COYFIG |

The episode with 'Krazy eyes killah' is a classic, as is the 'car pool
lane' one where he picks up a brazzer so he can use the car pool lane to
get to the baseball game on time. Anything with Leon in it is f*cking
hilarious! Krazy eyes  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPZyX8wN8RU" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPZyX8wN8RU ------------- ''I've had a rough night and I hate the f**kin eagles, man!!'' |

Great show,must see TV. The one where he ends up being told by some women he's working with that her daughter "has a rash on her pussy" is a classic! |

The one when he picks up John McEnroe in the limo and brings him to the Paul McCartney concert, two of them get locked and sit there reading Larry's "Freak Book". Get kicked out when they shout out what a freak as Heather Mills walks into the room. Comedy gold it is. Another good one is when he pretends to be yiddish to get Lewis to the top of the doner list and gets stuck on the ski lift with the head surgeon guys daughter.

The episode where Larry kills the swan at the golf club. Tries to get his golf club out of the lads coffin. Seinfeld is funnier in my opinion but Curb is still hilarious. |

The bit I loved was Larrys dipsh*t cousin insisted on ordering the onions fried in a certain way and Marty urging him top hurry up "Will you finish shovelling that sh*t into your mouth" and they ended up getting delayed and having to play behind the slow golfer herb------------- Wings?

I never got into seinfeld. I seen one episode years ago where Jason Alexander fell for a nazi or something and found it dry enough.Will give it another go. Any stand out episodes that I should watch first before I start from the beginning ------------- Wings? They're only the band The Beatles could have been. |

Seinfeld is class,I would have Curb ahead of it but only just. The character George is based on Larry David. The two shows are very similar but curb is a bit less silly and a bit more controversial. If you like one you'll defo like the other. I would say start with season 1 episode 1 and take it from there.That way you can see the characters develop at the pace it was intended and get the full benefit of it.Both shows would be easily in my fav top ten comedies (and i watch way too much telly!) If you want to start with one of the classics try"The Soup Nazi" based on a true character in NY as well. |

My 2 favourite Seinfeld episodes both heavily involve Frank. The Serenity Now is my favourite. A very close second would be the Strike, better known for Festivus. |

Hope they do another season I love that show. Larry is like everybody else he just speaks his mind and says what we would like to in similar situations.

Bump Anyone see the new series of curb yet? (Season 9) One episode in and it's fookin rubbish. Way ott. Will watch another few to see if it improves. The hooker in the second episode is class  ------------- Wings? They're only the band The Beatles could have been. |

It get's better. The first 3 or 4 episodes are fairly mediocre. Then there's maybe 3 very good episodes, after that the standard goes down a little again. It's not vintage curb, but it's definitely worth watching and still better than most other things out there.

BUMP On the 6th episode of season 9 and it's fookin rubbish.  The thoroughly unfunny 'Fatwa' storyline and the part where he meets the Muslim leaders who are deciding his fate is woeful stuff. They're bringing out a 10th series. ------------- Wings? They're only the band The Beatles could have been. |

He was good alright but it was only funny in bits and pieces. Richard Lewis's pretentious art exhibition was funny but Larry was just deliberately being ott and looking for fights non-stop. The Fatwa storyline and the Judge Judy appearance was cxxtish stuff altogether. ------------- Wings? They're only the band The Beatles could have been. |
