Curb Your Enthusiasm -Season 7 [US] **Spoilers**

smuckers

and the whole wood conversation was pure Larry!

Larry and Cheryl back together, there has to be a season 8!

smuckers

Right I thought it was overall a great ep, The Seinfeld scenes were amazing and I loved Larry getting jealous at Jason and Cheryl. I want a 10th Seinfeld season!

adamski8

i liked this ep, second half of this series was good, first poor. I liked that they kept calling him "mocha joe"

Wreck

Good episode, didn't quite hit the heights of some of earlier shows but having said that I thoroughly enjoyed it. Jerry and Larry are great together, loved the two of them at the book launch taking the piss out of Jason.

End of the season, and it's been a great run. Monday's have been made so much easier knowing that I'd get to watch this after work for the last few weeks. Really hope we get another season.

A great ending to a superb season. The Seinfeld scenes were brilliant. Loved the dialogue with Mocha Joe and the scene where Jerry was giving LD the LD stare. Fingers crossed for a season ten.

So, do you respect wood?

Mr.Nice Guy

I thought it was a good episode. I liked the line Jerry made about the Seinfeld finale being terrible and then how Larry defended it.

This was one of the most enjoyable seasons of Curb. My favourite episodes would be Vehicular Fellatio, Denise Handicapped and Officer Krupke.

What a great season, and a good season finale to boot. 7 seasons in and no major cracks, it's pretty...pretay, preeeeeeeeeetay impressive.


My fav season finale was the Tourettes chef "Fcuk you, you carwash cnut"

Reginald P. DuM

I really liked the finale, even if the ending was a bit telegraphed from a long way out. It brings us to the end of what has been overall a very good season, and a step up from the last couple. Having said that I did like The Blacks from Season 6 but they did run their course, and there were more funny episodes this season than last.

The actual Seinfeld scenes in character were great. I'm sure had it been real it would have been a solid reunion, I loved when Jerry said the had already made a mess of one finale, lets not do it again.

The lowlights of the season were The Reunion #3, The Hot Towel #4, and The Bare Midriff #6. These had their moments but overall they lacked the impact of the others. Of course someone has rightly pointed out earlier that a poor episode of Curb is still worth watching.

In my mind the best episodes of Se07 were:

Funkhowsers Crazy Sister #1
Vehicular Fellatio #2
Denise Handicapped #5
The Black Swan #7
Officer Krupke #8
The Table Read #9

with a notable mention going to Seinfeld #10. These are in the order as they aired, it's too tough to chose a favourite and actually it probably does an injustice to LD to decide as much. I'm not one to use big words lightly but this man clearly is a genius. Lets just say they each were brilliant in their own way, typical LD, cringeworthy, hilarious and providing an escape from reality in a way that only a balding Jewish neurotic comedian can. We squirm and we laugh almost in equal measure.

I have no doubt there will be another season next year and if it throws up more of the same well then aren't we all in for a treat.

Fair dues - I didn't see the last scene coming and really enjoyed it. Like they said, we don't do happy endings.

We got a great glimpse of what it was like for Jerry and Larry to work together on Seinfeld.

I agree with Reginald P. DuM's analysis of the season: some lows, but brilliant season overall.

seinfeld was too cheerful

I'd hardly call doing a bet who stays the longest without masturbating cheerful

I think he means Jerry was too cheerful in the last curb episode.

Don't want to read through the whole thread with spoilers and whatnot as I forgot about this season til lately, how's it shaping up so far?

sham69

Loved this series, really back on top form.
I wasn't crazy about the Officer Krupke episode or the Black Swan episode but the rest were class.
I hope there is another season.
Its a real pity there is only 10 episodes per season although more might ruin the format.

The season is finished now, and it was excellent

Watched the Table Read episode on More 4 last night as i am following the series on that channel.This was possibly the best Curb episode ever,so funny,I loved the Michael Richard/Leaon scenes the best!

Volvagia

I only just got around to watching the finale there and I'm so impressed.

It was another perfect curb episode where every single tiny detail comes back in a big way. I loved having Jerry in this season, as someone mentioned above. I thought he really fit well with the random dialogue and bounced of larry so well. A fine example being Jerry talking to both Larry and Jason about the "Book." "So i could be called acting with acting"

Larry and Jason fighting is so funny, just like season 2, I can't get enough of it.

The "Having said that..." was great too. Thought it was so funny when Julia said that she belived Larry would never do that, having said that.... so good.

When Jason stormed off it was great too. Jerrys lines about icons, and larry being a no con. Then Larry playing George was one of the strangest scenes I've ever seen on tv. It was terrible but hilarious. He just looked so ridiculous.

I have to say that I really liked the ending, when Cheryl came to larrys house I was thinking, oh now they're not going to do it that way are they. Its going to be a happy ending, bleugh... but then Classic Larry has to shine through and ruin the moment. So funny, what a way to end a great season.

Watching the seinfeld bits was so strange. They were great and really well done, I kept thinking that It was just so funny that they were doing it. It was so good to watch but so funny the way it was through curb.

I think i'm definitely going to have to watch this series again at some stage over xmas, there has been so many amazing episodes. (The table read, the black swan, Bam Bam, Officer Krupke and two of my favourite Vehicular Fellatio and Denise Handicapped)

Bravo Larry.

More please.

Just watched the last ep on More 4 last night and i agree with Volvagia,a great finale and doesn't Cheryl look great?

bazmaiden

There was never any doubt but nice to read it all the same. More Larry!!!

ronnie3585

Excellent news, delighted!!

Mr.Nice Guy

Pretty good news. Prettty, pretttty, pretttty good.

As long as Larry has the motivation to write I can't see HBO ever not renewing Curb - great to see he has committed to writing another 10 episodes.

Susie Essman is hoping she'll get the opportunity to cheat on Jeff in season 8 - quotes from Zap2it:

"I think it's time for Susie to be cheating on Jeff... I think it's time for Susie to spread her wings and give it back a little."

Essman added that fans often ask her to swear at them, explaining: "I had a way for people to contact me [on my website] and I got all these real sicko emails from, like, sado-masochistic guys who just wanted me to scream and yell at them. It got creepy, and I took off any kind of contact, because it was getting creepy.

"I'm acting. That's not how I act in real life. And I'm at the produce section buying, you know, canteloupe, and they ask me to tell them to go f**k themselves."

The best ending to any comedy series came from Suzy.

"Fu(k you, you car wash cnut!" Think it was season 3, The Grand Opening.
