Who's watching Curb Your Enthusiasm?

They do the best job of injecting political discourse into this show.

1. i'm taping it. one of my favorite shows. well you know larry david

jokes that he wife gives most of his money to NRDC.

[proud2BlibKansan]

2. Did you see the one where they joined the Republican country club?

It's one of my favorite episodes.

[catmother]

4. yes. we just got HBO 3 years ago -- so we rented all the seasons

before that. thank you netflix.

one of my favorite ones is the xmas one. when larry ate the x-mas cookies and one of the cookies was the baby jesus.

or how about the recent one where his father in law was wearing a nail around his neck. it was supposed to be from "the passion of the christ" and larry needed a nail to put up his messuzah (sp?) the father in law was sleeping and larry took the nail.

on edit: besides being a republican country club they didn't have any jewish members.

[proud2BlibKansan]

6. Remember what happened to that nail?

That was a funny episode.

I have two very favorites - the one where he picked up the hooker to ride in his car so he could drive in the car pool lane and the Benedryl brownie episode. I can't decide which was funnier.

[catmother]

7. yes. i remember the hooker. he had to take her to the ball game

and then to his father's house.

refresh me on the benedryl/brownie.

10. Richard Lewis was dating a Christian Scientist girl

who was allergic to peanuts. They had dinner at Larry and Cheryl's and there were peanuts in the food. She broke out in a horrible rash and Larry tried to sneak her some Benadryl in brownies.

There is a hysterical scene where Larry goes to see her and her family is having a prayer circle and they get Larry to join them.

[catmother]

15. oh yes. now i remember. thanks n/t

16. I don't have cable and just recently rented all four seasons. God is that

funny. The Christmas one is one of the best. I remember one from the first season where they went to some guys house for dinner and he was a porn star, and the guy told this reallly horrible porn story at the table. It was so awkward to watch. The whole show just makes you squirm and laugh.

3. I liked the episode where he was in the "The Producers"...

... and he was looking for a woman to sleep with for his anniversary gift. He was interested in the one actress until he saw the Bush/Cheney sticker then he got creeped out and backed away.

[catmother]

5. yes. i'm laughing thinking about it. n/t

[peekaloo]

8. Grand Opening.

I still laugh HARD at the ending of that episode.

[proud2BlibKansan]

11. Is that the one with the cursing chef?

LOL That was too funny.

[peekaloo]

12. oh yeah. To this day I cannot pass by a car wash without laughing.

:D

I love Jeff's wife Susie.

[proud2BlibKansan]

14. I was just remembering that one

Colon Blow. LOL

[catmother]

17. yeah. wasn't that the one where cheryl had taken the colon

cleanser?

don't know if you know it but susie is susie essman. she used to be a stand-up comic who would tell jokes about her jewish family.

love it when she calls jeff a fat fuck and larry a 4 eyed fuck.

[proud2BlibKansan]

21. What was the show where she fell

on the pound cakes?

[catmother]

9. remember the one where jeff's dog bit his penis. we could

probably sit here all night recalling episodes. at least i'll be going to bed with a smile on my face.

my husband doesn't have a really good sense of humor. but when he watches larry he lets go with some real belly laughs.

[proud2BlibKansan]

13. It's amazing how much story they tell in only 30 minutes

and how all the little stories interconnect.

[MADem]

It's the "Seinfeld circle"

Stories about vignettes of his life, what he knows. And it always ends up where it began. But always, with a twist.

19. Watched it tonight, and Rob Corddry was on, as the new neighbor

(who was apparently a registered sex offender). It's a great show!

[proud2BlibKansan]

20. He was great in that part

He played creepy very well.

23. most amazing is, there's no script- it's all improv

shortly before cameras roll, (after make up) the actors are told the 'bare bones' outline of the scene, as in what is happening to whom, and the rest is improvisation.

On of my favorites was when Larry hires actors to pose as a Nativity scene on his front lawn for his Christian in-laws, and they start kicking each other's asses for some reason or other.
