Oh, what an epic TV week this has turned out to be. All kinds of TV series are on sale!
Like its fellow HBO series Sex and the City, this half-hour comedy broke some TV rules and went from critics’ darling to an award-winning series in three years. Curb Your Enthusiasm is the brainchild of star-creator Larry David who co-created Seinfeld and was the basis for the easily rattled George Costanza (Jason Alexander).

Like George, David has a tendency to speak too much, blow things out of proportion, and, most often, fail in the end (and often liking it that way). David’s new show is also like its predecessor: it’s about “nothing” except following the day-to-day ramblings of a sometime writer and comic (this time in L.A.).
Eternal questions stemming from universal daily dilemmas are honed to perfect comedic absurdity. A notable exception is the show is only scripted by plot; much of the action is improvised. David plays “himself” (as does his friend, Richard Lewis) although his manager and wife are played by comedians Jeff Garlin and Cheryl Hines.
Although the show is a comedic gem, one can’t take more than an episode or two at a time. It’s acidic, biting comedy.
