Curb Your Enthusiasm v Arrested Development
Two of the funniest TV shows I love due back on TV soon can you choose one I cant.

Curb Your Enthusiasm wins hands down, the two are not even comparable.

amacachi · 06-09-2009 05:23PM

Arrested Development.

Where once there a Yacht, now there is not!

Has there ever been a better character than GOB?

Chinafoot · 06-09-2009 05:27PM

Arrested Development all the way.

Havermeyer · 06-09-2009 05:41PM

Curb your enthusiasm. Not by much though.

06-09-2009 05:43PM

Michael: I gave you permission to use the yacht. You blew it up.
Gob: Yeah, well, if you give someone permission to use a tissue, you can't be upset if they blow their nose. Right?

love them both but it has to be Arrested Development.

Tobias: Oh no, it seems i prematurley blew my wadd, leaving on me what was suppose to be a dry run... and now i have quite a mess on my hands.

Michael: So many poorly chosen words...

Tough one this but curb your enthusiasm probably just shades it.

ronnie3585 · 06-09-2009 07:11PM

Curb, just.

Dr.Slurm · 06-09-2009 08:36PM

Two of my favourite shows ever. Arrested Development has more laugh out loud moments I think, as in one every three seconds.

Slash/ED · 06-09-2009 08:39PM

It's like choosing between two children...AD, just, and I'm a huge Larry David fan. Both are just awesome though,

krudler · 06-09-2009 08:52PM

AD , purely for the episodes with Tobias as one of the Blue Man Group "I just blue myself"

mr_disc · 06-09-2009 10:05PM

Curb all the way.

New series being shown this month

HalloweenJack · 06-09-2009 10:09PM

I love Arrested Development, I never got into Curb Your Enthusiasm.

Mr.Nice Guy · 07-09-2009 02:29AM

Curb Your Enthusiasm easy. Larry David rules. :cool:

blindpilot · 07-09-2009 02:33AM

Arrested Development all the way. Massive fan of Curb Your Enthusiasm though. Such a shame Arrested Development was cancelled. Can't wait for the film. "Oh come on!"

Basq · 07-09-2009 09:30PM

It's an even tie... this says it all for me!

Dont be at yourself · 07-09-2009 09:49PM

Curb, all the way!

humanji · 07-09-2009 10:57PM

Definietly Arrested DEvelopment for me. I find that Curb is funny when you watch it and that's it. Arrested gets funnier the more you watch it, especially when you know the story line (the "For British Eyes Only" arc is a perfect example of this).

Namlub · 07-09-2009 11:28PM

Arrested Development ftw!

johnny_ultimate · 07-09-2009 11:35PM

Tough question, but I'd consider Curb the best comedy on television - it may not have the rewatchability of Arrested Development (and I've yet to see the entirety of AD) but there is barely a dud episode in the six series so far (although the series finales tend to be odd). Larry David is just the king of observational comedy (so many times the fictional Larry reacts exactly as people should react if society didn't dictate otherwise), and the addictive feeling of just waiting for the **** to hit the fan in every episode is a joy. Plus, it has the Doll - the greatest half hour of television comedy ever produced.

That said, I love what I've seen of AD, and it seems unfair to compare them as they are both very different types of comedy (observation & embarrassment vs surreal & random). But if, hypothetically, I was on a yacht full of explosives with seconds to live unless I chose one, I'd choose Curb.

And then Gob would blow up the yacht anyway.

EDINBRO · 07-09-2009 11:43PM

MASSIVE fan of both but gotta go with arrested development.. could watch it over and over still find new funny bits. Pure genius!
GOB definitely one of funniest characters ever!!

Larry david is a ledge too though!

Kinetic^ · 07-09-2009 11:45PM

AD ftw

Cabaal · 08-09-2009 09:11AM

Arrested Development wins no bother at all

KnifeWRENCH · 08-09-2009 05:31PM

Arrested Development, definitely.
Curb Your Enthusiasm is good but a bit overrated imo.

"JUDY!!, ju-day ju-day judaaaaaaaay" and "stop scratching your fcuking balls Larry", My favorite episode.

It's Curb for me, AD is great but Curb is a notch ahead. Both make the world a more tolerable place.

Illkillya · 08-09-2009 06:17PM

Curb by far.

murrayp4 · 08-09-2009 06:29PM

(After Rita has walked on the water)
Michael: "Hang on a sec. That's part of your trick, right?"
Gob: "No, that's not my trick, Michael."
Narrator: "On the next Arrested Development ..."
Gob: "It's my ILLUSION!."

Perrin · 08-09-2009 08:16PM

Arrested delelopment all the way,who can forgot gob's video for george micheal when he was running for class president
First line "steve holt is a ......."
