He goes full Larry in episode 2. Look for Ellison to exile Curb to the new Discovery Dissident Channel.

I need to go back and watch the early seasons of curb. I enjoy the ones i watched but skipped ahead a few seasons.


The first 7 or 8 seasons were great. Everything after is like a completely different show. You can’t tell as each season goes by, but the final season was fricking awful. Just complete buffoonery

i never understand why people make declarative statements like this. So you didnt like it as much as the previous. Now its "fricking awful".

I loved all the seasons and the last few were awesome. IMDB and RT disagrees with you. S9 was sluggish and the worst because of such a long hiatus but finished strong. A lesser episode of Curb is still better than 98% of shite on TV anyways

Got around to watching episode 2 last night. I enjoyed it even if some of the jokes were ones we'd seen before. I think the hardest I've laughed between both episodes was the bread line skit talking about mourners just not having that spring in their step and going hiking with a mourner asking them to catch up. That was a good bit. Overall it feels very much like Larry just being Larry, which is a good thing.

My only complaint is with the last skit, which was so eye rolling I had to fast forward. I know that left-leaning comedians have made a living for 10 years just picking the low hanging fruit of making fun of Trump, but Larry is so naturally funny he hasn't really had to resort to that unlike no talent hacks like trevor noah and others like him. So that last skit with Washington at the podium just kinda felt out of character for LD in addition to simply not being funny. I'm not one of those boomers that will not watch a show just because a liberal is in it, that's a bit crazy. I will say that I won't attend any more Roger Waters shows despite me loving the music because the politics is SOOOOOO over the top that it's a distraction. But the constant and unrelenting trump bashing in the skit was just....off brand, it felt like. And it went on and on and on and on like a family guy skit where it just never seemed to end. Granted I know the people behind the show are all liberals and hell in the first episode the cold open is with fricking obama, so obviously the entire show top to bottom is going to hate trump. I guess I would just prefer larry to not be in that arena. I watch shows like this to get away from real life (and politics) and just be entertained and laugh, not be beaten over the head with political agendas.
