Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Got a bit mediocre about halfway through too. Still, Bryan Cranston strawberry floating made that show.

Best US comedy show. Ever. (apart from Frasier)
I watched that episode yesterday!
And, yes, far superior to Friends and I'm only just starting to watch Seinfeld.

Those three are by far my favourite characters.

None of them can compare to Frasier.

The one who isn't hilariously rich, the one that doesn't have a TV show, and the one that wasn't George.
But no that really isn't the reason.
Hang on, no I mixed it up with something else. I thought there was one of the characters who said something quite racist once in real life. Wasn't to do with anyone from Seinfeld though.
Anyway, I've not seen it.
Friends was always on because the women in my family loved it, so I just watched that instead.

No that happened.
But Seinfeld stopped airing long before that

thousand yard stare wrote:Larry David is George Costanza without any of George's meagre charm
There's this great joke in an early season where Jerry Alexander basically hates on the George character, while Larry obviously looks annoyed because David based pretty much all of George on himself.
and every episode is exactly the same - there's been a misunderstanding, so Larry gets into a pointless argument with a stranger, and because the whole thing is unscripted and spontaneous, more often than not the dialogue substitutes swearing for wit. I know I'm in the minority here but I don't care, Curb sucks.
More often than not it isn't Larry's fault, which while tiresome after a few years, has given many funny scenes and many funny episodes.
The first season is a bit of a
fest though, I certainly wasn't keen on it to begin with.
