Curb Your Enthusiasm

Larry David is really funny, don't get me wrong but this show is boring. I mean he says some funny stuff but it reminds me of the first of the US The Office episodes, just boring with a few awkward funny parts.

I thought there would be more to this show, I did only watch the pilot though.

It's Always Sunny > Curb

Yeah if you only watched the pilot you don't know the half of it. It gets a ton better in later seasons. Although I do agree that Its Always Sunny is better.

^This. "Curb" is one of the classics. It's quite "Seinfeldish" but with more mature themes and less over the top.

i really enjoy it and i love all the stupid scenarios he walks into.

in fact, it's a breath of fresh air compared to most of the slop they put on television...and that includes seinfeld.

It's Always Sunny is a low brow Curb.

This is why Curb is funny

Get in That Ass Larry!

CYE is fucking elite. If you don't like it, YOU are inferior.

Oh dude, you really can't judge it by the pilot. Some of the earlier stuff is a bit slow, but the later seasons are really, really awesome. Definitely some of the best stuff on TV.

I really like this show sometimes. A lot of it is too bland though.

It's really just Larry David, very "kosher" wit, real life situation kind of things, you can definately see where Jerry Seinfeld contributed in his own show.

A few key parts where Kramer gets upset at a black man, and says "If only there was a word I could say that would make you angry!"

Another one where Larry David pretends to be retarded, doing the hand thing and all so someone doesn't move into the office across the hall - after seeing someone using it to skip a line at a movie theater, and says to his lady with a surprised yet appreciating look:
"Well, I gotta take my hat off to the guy"
