Is there a more brilliant episode of Curb than “the Ski Lift”?

the one from a couple seasons ago when larry has a fatwa, and helps some random muslim man in a buffet line. in turn, the man goes around interviewing larry's acquaintances (including the ski lift woman) to see if the fatwa should be lifted. and while theyre all shitting on larry, the muslim interprets everything favorably.

"according to jewish law im not allowed to be with a man after sundown, so i asked larry to jump from the lift and he refused."

"So he refused to follow the tenets of jewish orthodoxy?"

Thank you for your service is my personal favorite. My dad was a career army officer and decorated Vietnam combat vet. I laughed so hard at some of those scenes that I had to pause the show.

There are so many great episodes of the show. I'm always kind of partial to The Survivor from Season Four. The Holocaust survivor getting into an argument with Colby from Survivor never fails to make me laugh.

Also has Larry and Gina Gershon as the dry cleaning lady with the hole in the sheet.

Great episode.

The episode called “The N Word”

Jeff shits on Larry’s opinion of there being bald discrimination

Larry overheard a dude in the bathroom drop the N bomb. He tells Jeff all about it, and a black doctor walks about hearing Larry say the N word. That doctor ends up doing a procedure on Jeff, and shaved his head because he was so flustered about the bald guy with glasses calling him a N word

Larry strikes up a short relationship with a doctor who treats their relation like a doctor/patient relationship. She asks him to go up to their room, take his clothes off, and she’ll be up in a few minutes .. they end up having to “reschedule” because her brother and sister live with her.

Eventually the doctor writes Larry a note that he can’t read.. because doctors have shite hand writing. He brings it to a pharmacist (who’s black), and it basically said “I’m tired of these brothers and sisters, how about we meet at a hotel. I’m sure you’ll love a break from the Blacks (Larry’s live in family from the hurricane).

It was perfectly written and it’s amazing how everything circled back together

Yes this is a great resolution to the season. It reminded me of the Seinfeld finale where everyone that they went into contact with shite on them during their testimony.. except this time, this was all great stuff in the eyes of the ayatollah

The Ski lift is probably my all time favorite Curb episode.

The finals scene alone is enough to put it over the top.

"What are you frickin nuts?".. While chewing through the edible panties. Priceless.

Although Palestinian Chicken is way up there, too.

I also like the episode where he thought he was Catholic

His entire view on things changed after he was no longer a Jew

That’s a top 5 episode for sure. “The Weatherman” is my personal favorite episode.

Larry’s explanation to Jeff about why he sits down to pee will never not make me laugh.

All of Curb is great, but seasons 3-5 are unmatched as the best stretch of comedy TV IMO.

The black swan

The combination of the big Funk, Larry, Jeff, and Andy is probably the best in the show
