re: Curb Your Enthusiasm | The Final Season

Dumbass parents from the fall youth soccer team had a text thread going. The season was finished in early November and I’ll likely never see these people again, yet they kept texting through the holidays and this bitch woman would go on and on about missing everyone. Truly bizarre. Finally removed myself from it

the comedian hierarchy thing, like the Mob ... hope it's Mel Brooks

That's what I was wondering. I didn't think much of that episode

I assume that Susie gave it to him when she found out what he and Larry did.

My only gripe, and it really does not matter in the scheme of things, is Larry's lack of explanation to his lawyer on why the cheese was in Suzie's fridge. That is the whole point of the transaction. Larry asked to keep it there and even explained when he would pick it up. This is one of the few examples where either Larry is 100% right or 100% wrong, and it takes away from the humor. Nobody is going to side with Suzie once you break it down. Also, the show sort of contradicted itself. 15 minutes earlier she ripped the sandwich out of Jeff's hand. Now, she is making him a melt?

yeah, the inconsistencies are a little glaring sometimes.

My only guess is that, because they are improvising everything, it can be easy to forget things. Also, if they are filming shite out of order, I could imagine it playing out something like this:

-Films scene where Larry confronts the Greenes about the cheese. Susie Essman is improvising and randomly thinks up a use for the cheese and throws out the "melt" line.

-later, they film scene where Larry offers Jeff the sandwich. Susie Essman thinks it would be funny to be a hardass and deprive Jeff of the sandwich.


I'd imagine once they go down a line of improvised dialogue they are trying to make it as funny as possible without too much regard for some of the details, which is fine ultimately

I thought it was funny. I agree with the above posters about the inconsistencies, but didn’t really bother me.

thought it was mediocre episode

could of been a great one, but just fell flat, episode before was one of best, then this one, meh

Conan hitting Larry with the keys had me rolling. But, any physical comedy Larry does gets me every time.

Anyone listened to the podcast with Jeff and Susie

Yeah….its a tough listen for me tbh. I have listened to every episode but probably won’t continue. I can only listen to Jeff say “my wife of yore” so many times.
