I agree. Larry David is the genius here. Curb is a better comedy but Seinfeld gets the nod because it's old and fulfills that nostalgia factor.

Curb is GOAT comedy series IMO. I recently rewatched Curb beginning to end, most I've ever laughed at a TV show.

Seinfeld's first few seasons are weak. Curb is banging from the beginning.

As much as I love Seinfeld, this is a conversation that can be had. It is not by any means a ludicrous assertion.

Seinfeld is my #1 and Curb is my #2 in terms of comedy. I understand why people would enjoy Curb more, but I'd like to point out that Curb being on HBO gives it a pretty big advantage in terms of content and scheduling.

Yes and after watching Curb you can see that Larry David was the real talent behind Seinfeld.

Not for me. Larry David or at least his character puts me off. No way I'd want to be around him irl.

Impossible to compare the two.

Seinfeld was on regular TV, Curb is on HBO. With no limits or censors. It's basically just Seinfeld in HBO.

both are great but I like Seinfeld much more.
However I like Arrested Development more than Seinfeld.

It's not really a fair comparison.

the two are one in the same essentially. LD was able to make Curb dirtier due to the fact that it was on HBO instead of NBC. With Seinfeld being on NBC, they were limited on topics and language.

Both shows are great.

As funny as Curb can be, it's also the nost frustrating TV show ever. At the end of every single episode you desperately want to punch someone in the face. It angers me way too much to consider it better than Seinfeld.

I've never seen Curb, but loved Seinfeld. I definitely need to check it out..
