"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 It's just a darn funny show put together by proverbial consummate old pros. Regardless...each episode of "Curb Your Enthusiasm" flies by in a dizzying blur of neurotic delight. Jun 13, 2018 Full Review Ann Hodges Houston Chronicle What's fantastic about Curb Your Enthusiasm is that 99 percent of it is improvised. Jun 13, 2018 Full Review Carina Chocano Salon.com One of the show's slyest comic feats is the feeling of displacement it produces in the viewer by putting people like David, Michael York and Ted Danson in a room together and showing what would happen if they invested in a restaurant. Jun 13, 2018 Full Review Peer Schneider IGN Movies A good cast is only half of what makes Curb 3 so good. The show has matured to move away from the single, self-enclosed episode format to offer an overarching storyline. Rated: 8/10 Jun 9, 2018 Full Review Roger Catlin Hartford Courant Think of "Curb Your Enthusiasm'' as 100-proof, undiluted "Seinfeld'' -- meaner, funnier...with social embarrassments so extreme it's sometimes painful to watch. Jun 8, 2018 Full Review Tom Gliatto People Magazine The comedy is so perversely, overwhelmingly rich in absurdities, the mind is likely to break the episodes down into one big database of gags, characters and stories.

Audience Member "Do you think a birational person really needs sunblock?" Yeah.. I can't believe it. No... just no. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review dave d If you made it to season 3 of Curb you clearly like what's on offer and deservedly so! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Larry David's ability to take mundane topics and create brilliant and hilarious moments from them is one of the many reasons why Curb is so successful as well as the talent that he surrounds himself with. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review dustin d Season 3 of Curb Your Enthusiasm follows Larry David as he works with investors to open a restaurant in L.A. He predictably makes things harder for himself and his partners. The show starts to resemble the zany story lines of Seinfeld. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Continues being great. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Larry David: Please x 100000 start making more Curb episodes!!...pppllleeaassseeee....... Just like Seinfeld.....I'm watching re-runs here.....and still loving every minute of it! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
