  • can't say i like it more than seinfeld, but i certainly appreciate LD'S part in Seinfeld more after watching curb, that show is brilliant, as is the man himself
  • i'm not gonna bring jerry down cause i love him to death, but it was pretty evident how important larry david was to that show after i saw curb. that show is ridiculous. i think it takes a certain kind of person to dig it though, a lot of people i know dont like that kind of humor. but they're stupid heads.
    all these burning battlefields are now behind us, life has brought us here together to remind us, that love will rise above it all and just keep growin, life keeps flowing and every moment starts right here with us

  • I like CYE more than Seinfeld.. It's close though. I just love the characters, and the fact that they can basically say anything. I also love the format and the fact that it doesn't have a laugh track.. Canned laughter.. who the hell came up with that?

    Larry David is clearly the brains behind Seinfeld, even though Jerry's comedy and Larry David's are so close.

    I love Suzie.. best character ever.. a mad Jewish lady with a fat husband who has a bald friend.. and the fact that she exploits that with F-bombs every 2 seconds is crazy!

    This last season was just okay to be honest, but the Leon character is a slightly toned-down version of Krazy-Eye-Killa.. and he was great!

    I like Cheryl, but I think she's a little bitchy and demanding at times.. even though Larry brings most of it upon himself, but really, I hope they don't get back together lol.

  • I wasn't that big of a fan of season 5. however Kamikaze Bingo is one of my favorite episodes of all time. and you're right about Larry's line on the ski lift being hilarious. another great delivery from Larry is in the 'Larry David Sandwich' episode. He, Jeff and Ted Danson are all having an argument and Jeff says something and Larry, HILARIOUSLY, shouts "shut the fuck up!" in Jeff's face in a real funny voice and keeps on arguing with Danson without even taking a breath. check it out.

    but overall, I wasn't too into the season 5 arcs: Larry maybe being adopted and Lewis needed a Kidney. and some stuff (Christ Nail, the season Finale) just didn't do anything for me. season 6 was a little better for laugh out loud moments, but the stories have become predictable if you ask me. either way, I'll keep tuning in every time until it stops making shows. Larry's a genius.

    I remember laughing that part you mentioned also, the way he just tells him to 'shut the fuck up' and then immediately carries on with Ted is great stuff. Jeff and Larry are both trying to keep straight faces but i bet they were dying to laugh.

    Another one that killed me was in Kamikaze Bingo. I can't remember who he was ranting at, but Larry was ranting about the kamikaze pilot who survived and he said something along the lines of "he didn't even hit the boat, he GRAZED the boat, as if to say 'i'm heading back home, coz this is fuckin' NUTS'!" It's not word for word correct but when he said it i almost wet myself.

    I haven't seen season 6 yet, comes out on DVD over here pretty soon though!

  • I'm so excited! Season 6 begins tomorrow night in the UK, at 10.35pm on More4!

    I've held off from downloading this season in the hopes it would be on tv at a decent time.

    Is season 6 good? I'm very exited about it!

    lol, that's a good story. This show has the tendency to stop me from getting important things done.

  • My favorite season was the season where Larry was involved with The Producers. My particular favorite episode from that season was the Ben Stiller birthday party episode. Everything from the kid saying, "I love tits" while playing telephone, to Ben staring at Larry while he doesn't sing "happy birthday" with the rest of the guests.

    Season 3:
    When Larry invested in a restaurant, and on opening night the chef started yelling out cuss words because of tourette syndrome. Larry then yelled back cuss words, then everybody in the restaurant started cussing out loud.

    Oh fuck me.

    First I re-subscribe to Showtime for Homeland (and now Billions)...gotta do the same with HBO too?!

    Because I will. I certainly will.

    Thanks a lot, Larry :angry:

    This might be the best news I've heard in awhile. I really hope this guy is still on it...

    You probably won't have to do it for a while though. By the time they get together and shoot the episodes, they probably won't even air until next summer.

    Haha, I loved that dude!

    Man, there has been so much fodder for humor since this was last on. Ton of stuff to make fun of.

    I can do next summer!

    I would imagine all the characters will be back. Just thinking about that show makes me happy!
