Any other fans? I watched this show a bit several years ago and decided to get back into it. I just bought the first season on itunes and plan to buy more.

Larry David is hilarious, IMO.

HUGE fan...for years I just assumed L David was drawing a check with Seinfeld and Jerry was the 'brains' behind that program....obviously I was wrong....Curb takes many of the same or similar topics and does a great job with them....and just like Seinfeld so many wonderful characters including secondary and infrequent...Love Susie....

If you have similar taste and sensibilities to mine (or lack thereof) be prepared to get addicted....I'm sure you know you can find complete episodes online free...

We all have a little Larry in us.

You should check out his recent HBO movie Clear History. He basically plays himself in it.

Best long running series, yes. Better than Band of Brothers? Not close.

I hope they get together and do another season some time. The past couple seasons have been great. I know Larry did a movie for HBO last year that's been on quite a bit and was pretty funny. His character had a different name, but he was basically the same Larry David he's always been on Curb.

I side with LD 99% of the time. For instance, I hate doing a stop and chat when out in public.

For some time I felt he and I were alike in many ways.....a friend noted that and my wife spoke up and said yes thats true but without the 'genius package' and the money....

One of my favorite lines is when a guy call him a self loathing Jew and he replies "Oh I loath myself but it has nothing to do with being Jewish".

Larry's line at the first of that exchange when the guy comes over and asks him if he's Jewish is one of the funniest of the entire series.

This is probably my all time favorite scene that sparked a friend and I saying the phrase "Ohhh milk and coffee" to any obvious statement someone made. We still do it to this day. My wife even says it sometimes.

I also loves when he is describing the artist's works as squares and triangles with the guy defending himself "there's a little more to it than that" and Larry retorts "well I don't know about that". Just a great scene from start to finish.

Best Leon exchange? Confronting him about the ejaculate on the bed spread or getting a pep talk about how to handle a skin head.

Everyone knows how to handle a skinhead don't they....if they don't lets give them a hand....first you 'open it up'....then you....
