"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.

Tom Shales Washington Post At its best, "Enthusiasm" is funny from so many different angles that a viewer may be in the mood to watch an episode over again the minute it ends. Jan 24, 2020 Full Review John Carman San Francisco Chronicle The great thing about "Curb Your Enthusiasm" is that the dour David is a magnet for confrontation, often with strangers. Rated: 4/4 Jan 24, 2020 Full Review Caroline Westbrook Empire Magazine Further proof then, if indeed it were needed, that not all US TV comedies need canned laughter and telegraphed one-liners to succeed. Rated: 5/5 Jul 6, 2018 Full Review Tom Jicha South Florida Sun-Sentinel There'll never be another Seinfeld, but Curb Your Enthusiasm comes wonderfully close. Jun 18, 2018 Full Review Bill Beyrer CinemaBlend If you are not hooked by the first season, the second will reel you in. "Curb Your Enthusiasm" is no different. I took the bait, and then got hooked; now I'm in for the long haul. Rated: 4.5/5 Jun 6, 2018 Full Review Peer Schneider IGN Movies From the seemingly pointless opening situations and conversations in each episode, right till the very end when everything comes full circle, this is brilliant comedy. Rated: 7/10 Mar 20, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Larry David is a mastermind at taking simple ideas and turning them into some of the most uncomfortable, brilliant comedic moments amongst his famous friends. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review dustin d Curb Your Enthusiasm Season 2 follows Larry David as he works with Jason Alexander, and then Julia Louis-Dreyfus, to create a new TV series based on a star's life post-Seinfeld. It resembles Season 4 of Seinfeld in the sense it is a sort of meta-story about creating a show like itself, and the season-long story line. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Best episode is the doll. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
