Curb Your Enthusiasm - The Complete Third Season

Curb is basically a continuation of Seinfeld... if you love Seinfeld, you'll absolutely love Curb.

Larry David = George, and HBO gave Curb the oppertunity for longer R rated shows.

I purchased this box set based on video clips I have seen online without ever having seen the show on HBO. The 5 seasons are great for relaxing, watching, and trying to contemplate how someone can get into such a mess.

Two things surprised me after my purchase. First, since I do not have HBO I was surprised to find that each season only has 10 episodes. Second, there are very little bonus features throughout the five seasons. I think only 2-3 interviews and one episode with commentary. However, these are not as important to me as I purchased them to relax to and laugh at.

The videos have fulfilled my expectations 100% and I plan on purchasing season 6 in the future and the 7th when it is released on DVD. I am still re-watching each episode.

Well, who would think that Larry David is by me considered one of the funniest guys on the planet, knowing my "politics"?! Indeed he is, though! In an age where humour is mostly on the level of "Friends", it is hard to find any show that is worth to waste some time with. This show, though, can make me laugh so hard my fianc���e sometimes looks at me strangely. It has its very dull moments too, not to mention that the show is (obviously) as Jewish as a show can get. Everything is there, the extreme "liberal/leftist" political opinions, the references to Jewish secular culture and mannerisms constantly, the anti-gentile tone and of course, the trophy "shiksa" wife of Mister David himself. That being said, (although it is of course not 100 % real, being a show and all) it offers very fascinating insights into a culture that is closed for us slow-witted gentiles, at the same time that it is a very self-ironic show. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that the show is really "anti-gentile" or something like that, it is more "anti-Jewish" if anything, considering how it makes fun of them. The show kicks both "Left" and "Right", and like South Park is really a show for every "side".

The "pathetic" figure of Jerry Lewis, and his interplay with Larry David, not to mention the no-spine manager of theirs; Jeff, really makes this one of the funniest and most surreal shows out there. I laugh onto the floor in every scene including either of these two characters, and especially while they fight Mister David. Every episode in this season is hillarious, perhaps except "The Thong" and "Shaq", which I found somewhat disgusting and boring. The whole Jason Alexander-thing is also quite dull, and should have been left out of an otherwise brilliant season. Beware, that there is nothing holy in the world of Larry David, but he's quite open about it, so not really the usual "hidden agendas" here. The extra material is really thin, though, I found nothing on this season at all. 4 stars.

Sent this season to my son in Iraq.He said he enjoyed it as much as he did the other seasons.Since they don't have TV over there, it is nice that he can watch his favorite shows on his computer.
