Grating, and exceptionally stupid this season, "Curb Your Enthusiasm" only featured a few good episodes that themselves weren't without fault. Larry has never been a character one can overtly love, but this season it was hard not to dislike him in many episodes. There's some brilliance at work, surely, and some of the episodes would have been great in other seasons, or made up a great season without some of the bad episodes, but at 80 episodes now, HBO's longest running series, the idea machine seems to be running short. "Seinfeld" was a show that ended strong, in top form, but "Curb" seems destined not to do this. This of course is no bad show, but audiences expect a lot from David's brand of comedy.
Curb Your Enthusiasm (S.8): ★★
