Curb Your Enthusiasm: Complete HBO Season 6 (DVD)

I stumbled upon the first series of CYE last year and after the very first episode I was hooked. I watched the entire series in one sitting and decided there and then that I had to have the whole lot, so promptly bought the box set of the first six series. CYE is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of show. I love it and have a few friends who do, but also know lots of people who hate it. The reason? It's too cringeworthy! Yes, it is very cringeworthy, but that's where the genius of it lies. CYE is set as a faux documentary in the style of the Osbornes or similar, and follows the life of Larry David and his long-suffering wife Cheryl. Larry is a stubborn 'celebrity' who ...  Read the complete review

Prince Harry got away with using the 'P' word because he's royal and a bit thick, but if he had used the 'J' word for 'Jew' in that Brize Norton departure lounge it would have been a very different story and not going away so easily, the Jewish lobby jumping into action and the protest underway, Jonathan Ross style. Because the Jewish race/faith have gone through the worst crime of all in the holocaust they know their humor can be that little bit more caustic and risky at others expense as payback, pushing the boundaries that little bit harder thorough that hubris and arrogance, and that, really, is the essence of why Jewish humor is so funny. Not because it's ...  Read the complete review

Curb your enthusiam is a program that i stumbled onto many years ago and thank god I did, this comedy from the man who co- wrote seinfield stars the man himself larry david.

In this season larrys wife cheryl persuades him to take in a family that have been victims of a hurricane and no doubt moments of comedic genius ...  Read the complete review

You would think that after seven years and six seasons that Larry David's Curb Your Enthusiasm would be starting to die a death, but though is a dangerous thing and David has hired three names from his previous hit Seinfeld to breath new life into the show before it showed any signs of strain. The result rather amazingly is that Curb is funnier in its seventh year than it has ever been before. In a case of art imitating life, and you need really to ask why it has not happened sooner, season six follows the demise of David's marriage to the long suffering Cheryl who has finally said enough is enough and left the David house once and for all, leaving Larry to ...  Read the complete review

Curb Your Enthusiasm is the concept of Seinfeld creator Larry David. In the show, David plays himself, struggling with life's many mundane dilemma's. Whilst meaning well, he manages to upset the majority of people around him. I first started watching Curb your Enthusiasm a couple of years back - they were showing episodes on More4, and I always caught the end, or came in half way through an episode. The bits I saw however, were enough to get me interested, and I went ahead and bought the box set of Season 1. I'm glad I did, as I would now rate Curb Your Enthusiam as the funniest show on TV. I would imagine there'd be quite a few people who don't ...  Read the complete review
