"Seinfeld" co-creator Larry David plays a version of himself on the improvised series. He faces a constant barrage of life's little annoyances, which in David's sometimes well-meaning but terminally fumbling hands don't tend to stay small for very long. Episodes frequently center on his ignorance of or disregard for well-established social conventions and expectations, as well as his insistence that others adhere to rules of which only he seems to be aware. Developed from a 1999 one-hour special on HBO that was envisioned as a one-time project, the series premiered in October 2000.

Curb Your Enthusiasm is a funny, scary distillation of [Larry] David's experience of the world, where nearly everything makes him angry, including his sense that he probably has no right to be angry. Go to Full Review John Carman San Francisco Chronicle 01/24/2020
4/4
It's howlingly funny, groaningly close to home and usually both. Go to Full Review Linda Stasi New York Post 06/13/2018

It got really repetitive already. Always starts with Larry David ticking someone off, then he needs help from that person later. Or the person turns out to be a friend/partner of someone he knows. Was funny though, so gonna skip to another season to see if they got more plot variation See more richard m @Boxs2013 12/15/2024 I'm binge watching from the beginning..and it's a real pleasure as I never had the time or the Cable...I do remember that back then my brother R (rip) who loved 2 1/2 Men and thought Curb was stupid and unfunny...oh well...lol See more Jack R 02/19/2024 Can’t tell if I love him or hate him.
