I love Curb though I thought the last two series weren’t really up to the high standards of the rest. The first few series are pure genius.
Just finished Blue Lights - rattled through both seasons in no time. Brilliant telly, we were completely hooked.
Hallelujah jolyon !!! You said series! Made my day.
Just the small things…
Much better than Seinfeld imo.
I just find Larry David funnier
I’ve never got around to trying Seinfeld!
Showing our age
To be fair, Seinfeld is the least good thing about Seinfeld
Watched Curb episode 1 last night, didn’t get it.
Will persist.
1st Ep isn’t great - but it picks up.
I didn’t even find supporting characters that funny in Seinfeld
Larry is practically a member of our family. My wife will give me the Larry stare if she’s suspicious. “….OK.”
The Palestinian Chicken episode is legendary…Larry’s postcoital recitation of “The Scarlet Pimpernel” as he descends the stairs…I lose it every time, it’s just so ridiculous.
Mine will say, “Okay, Larry,” whenever I go off on unspoken societal rules…
I rewatched Glengarry Glen Ross tonight - far out, it packs a punch no matter how many times you watch it. Essential.
Still never seen it!
The Hudsucker Proxy is free on YouTube just now. Watched it again Saturday night, brilliant!
Finally got a VPN over the weekend specifically for iPlayer and other UK-based stuff. First order of business is The Thick of It which I knew would be enjoyable and it is. Open to any and all recommendations in a similar vein (think Peep Show, Black Books, Lead Balloon)
