HBO: Curb Your Enthusiasm

[Biff Pocoroba]

That Super Bowl commercial felt like a lot like a Curb promo until the very end.

Larry David turns 75 today.

Some of the racial humor in this show feels hateful.

Some of the racial humor in this show feels hateful.

What’s an example?

Episodes that stand out:

-The Korean Bookie - just one episode in a long list of episodes that features minority actors who are willing to go over the top with accents that to me feel degrading towards the minority being portrayed. If you watch any episode of curb that features a minority actor speaking w an accent, it feels forced and contrived in the attempt to get a laugh.
Oscar Nunez’s character in season 1 is another example.

-The N Word - it almost feels like the writers just wanted an excuse to allow Larry to say “N****r” the on the show.

I’m 5 eps into the latest season.

The pronouns thing at Hulu was great. Vince Vaughn is fucking great. Really miss Funkhauser. I don’t see what the big deal is with watermelons. The KKK guy from Ozark, wow that actor really found his calling. Woody Harrelson was meh. Looking forward to the next Mary Ferguson.

Because I’ve binged this show, I don’t remember many specifics. It all kinda blends together.

That clip was great.

[Bammer]

Not one stare down in the latest season!

[Biff Pocoroba]

Production has wrapped on the latest season. It will likely be the last one as LD’s contract with HBO is up.

Plus he’s like 85 and who knows if he’ll live long enough for another season.

Next season is officially the final season.

[Biff Pocoroba]

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

She’sreported to be in it along with all the regulars. If he didn’t get rid of Garlin after his cancellation he’s not gonna toss Hines because of her husband.

[CopperTom]

What did her husband do?

[wease]

He’s Robert Kennedy Jr.
