sonofenoch · 04-08-2016 10:28pm

It is.....would love to know why Sky Atlantic choose to show it at the most ridiculous times....sign language hours

ronnie3585 · 04-08-2016 10:30pm

This is good. Pretty....pretty.....pretttty good.

Quandary · 04-08-2016 10:33pm

Just a brilliant show. I'm just finished season 6 and it has improved at practically every step!

IamMetaldave · 26-08-2016 10:58am

I can't wait for season 9. My favourite comedy show ever. Hopefully Leon will be there again.

I can hear that in Leon's voice

Can't find the code for YouTube on the mobile version.

Best of Leon!

I'm on season 3, I started out liking the show i'm still kinda luke warm.

The whole schtick of Larry making some silly mistake and people going overboard blaming him for everything gets old pretty quickly. It is very funny at times but its like waiting around for the gag as to how larry will screw up every time followed by an out of proportion reaction by the main antagonist. Its basically this every episode

Lauren Graham will recur, as usual David is keeping details about the upcoming 9th season of Curb under wraps, including Graham’s character, which will recur alongside popular returning guest stars like Ted Danson and Mary Steenburgen. The series’ core cast — David, Jeff Garlin, Cheryl Hines and Susie Essman — also are all coming back.

He is.

There's a five part podcast called Origins that was just released that has interviews with the cast and producers etc. It's great and well worth a listen.

evolving_doors · 26-09-2017 10:00pm

Can't wait. Didn't like season 8 too much but wound up watching them all again. Some good moments.
Is he back with Cheryl?

Joe_ Public · 26-09-2017 10:17pm

Agree about Season 8, rewatched it last week and it was a bit of a lull, though the finale with Michael J Fox was very good. Still, even a lacklustre Curb is way ahead of most comedy shows out there so cant wait for next week.

The full interviews that were used to create the podcast episodes are now available. 13 interviews in total with Larry, Cheryl, Susie, JB Smoove, Ted Danson etc. Each around 20-30 mins long.

S.M.B. · 27-09-2017 9:38pm

Podcast is great. Thanks for posting it.

jack presley · 29-09-2017 9:22pm

This was put up on Netflix today. Not exactly season 9 related but might be worth a watch.

I would have loved in the court room when the defence was asked to present their case, they started by just playing the Curb theme tune

Basq · 30-09-2017 2:51pm

It is a very interesting watch but the CYE aspect is probably less than 3 minutes of the 40 minute doc...

Sixtoes · 02-10-2017 10:14am

Is this going to air on another station for those of us who don't have sky?
Very jealous that all seasons are available on boxsets also!

Pacifico · 02-10-2017 7:14pm

Well...that was brilliant!

Larry's text to Lewis about his bird was genius!!

Basq · 02-10-2017 7:54pm

The holding the door scene was classic Curb..

jack presley · 02-10-2017 7:57pm

Spoiler tags please (at least until it's shown over here!)

Beersmith · 02-10-2017 8:16pm

Will it be shown here anywhere in the near future?

It will be a while before it's on another station.

Used to be shown by TG4.

But I know you have the internet, so you can work something out

furiousox · 03-10-2017 7:57am

Just great, like he's never been away.
So, so funny from start to finish.
I laughed 'til I cried when

Larry put on the tv and the ayatollah was putting a fatwa on him, "even if he repents, even if he converts"

Welcome back LD.

S.M.B. · 03-10-2017 9:11am

Good start to the season.

Surprised to see so many familiar faces in the supporting cast. Was this usually the case in the past few seasons?

Duggie2012 · 03-10-2017 9:52am

i thought it was a poor enough first episode. it was just ok. jeez richard lewis looks like he has failed a lot. and suzy looks like she has had plastic surgery. compared to some of the classic episodes for an opener i thought it was a little weak. still cant wait for episode 2 though.

smuckers · 03-10-2017 11:47am

I thought the bride angle didn't work very well, but everything else was spot on. The camera is less documentary style.
The door was ajar LOL

I noticed the camera angle had changed also, found it a little jarring.

Solid episode.

Also - How awesome was leon answering the phone...

"Larry David's office, what the F8ck is up"

Loved it. I hope Funkhouser is going to be in it.

Definitely needs a bit of funkhouser.

Potential Underachiever · 04-10-2017 6:06pm

Enjoyed the first one! I've added 'lampin' into my vocabulary! Love Leon.

Glebee · 04-10-2017 8:11pm

Just watched the season opener. I am a massive curb fan but was not that impressed with this. Dont know what it is, are they trying too hard, all seems very forced or something. Also is it just me or does the latest episode look different from older seasons???? Maybe its just me. Defo agree that it needs good old Marty Funkhouser..

S.M.B. · 04-10-2017 8:25pm

It looked very different but that's inevitable after so many years away.

I think the opening drone shot made it very clear it was to longer trying doing the mocumentary thing.

As I said early I found it more jarring seeing the likes of Carrie Brownstein and yer one from New Girl pop up out of nowhere.

furiousox · 04-10-2017 8:28pm

I loved every minute of it, am I in the minority?

Maybe I need a holiday.

sonofenoch · 04-10-2017 11:26pm

It was good, very funny in parts but wouldn't go down as a classic......the ending was a bit off and not funny at all

sham69 · 05-10-2017 10:38am

Strong opener I thought.
Can't wait for more..

We actually had to pause it after that line, we laughed so much, I was expecting him to surprise us and Larry by being professional but he ended up doing exactly what Leon would do.

You're not alone, I loved it. I was really worried they'd try too hard and Larry messing around with the soap at the start was worrying me but then I remembered that that sort of thing has happened to me before and it's so annoying!

blondeonblonde · 05-10-2017 7:49pm

Yeah, I thought it was a weak start but it improved towards the end once the whole Fatwa thing got going!

The beginning felt a little stilted to me though and was a rehash of previously done jokes. The soap in the shower was like the knife in the sealed pack in season 7 I think? Also the door holding thing was kinda telegraphed as well and had been done jokes with a lift episode before.

Still enjoyed it though & great to see him back on screen, easily my favourite comedy series.

Joe_ Public · 05-10-2017 11:21pm

Would be firmly in the weak camp myself. The whole lesbian wedding thing fell flat and the Fatwa segments, while promising, didn't ultimately have a lot of laughs. Too many of the angry scenes didn't have any corresponding lightening humour, which I've never seen as an issue before. Some decent moments alright, I thought the ending was as good as it could have been, but overall I'd probably chalk it down as the weakest episode yet. Hopefully can only move upwards from here.
