"What are you doing? You're jostling that baby all around. I can't watch this."
"You happy with your tone? I'm not happy with mine. You can't do anything with it. You're like coffee and can add as much cream or as little cream as you like to mix it up."
Ted Danson leaving for his flight telling Cheryl he'll call when the plane lands....
Larry: "You don't have to call. If the plane crashes we'll hear about it. We'll know."
Was dying when Larry pushed over all those electric scooters.
LD has a way to just take a normal, everyday task and turn it into comedy gold simply based on his obscure viewpoint of the situation. Or he can take something that really is not funny at all, and just make it hilarious.
For instance, of the funnier episodes of the series for me was a time where he gets a ummmm…...hair....stuck in his throat. The entire episode is based around this obstruction in his throat and its completely over the top hilarious, so much i cant even explain it, its just one of those things, you have to watch.
Or a time a older jewish fellow ask him to have a "survivor" over for dinner i think it was. would mean a lot to the "survivor". Larry is like yeah ok absolutely. Turns out its a guy from the actual series "survivor". And of course a real holocaust survivor is there and they argue over who had it worse - which typing, sounds ludicrous and obscene to even suggest, yet when you watch it - its just comedy gold. And theres not a person on earth that could that scene, and make it work as comedy other than LD.
Fights with handicapped people. Fixes up a blind guy with a women in a burka.
Remember the hair throat episode also featured a fight at the Nativity Scene. After asking about how hot Mary was.
The episode where he goes to the funeral wake and the dead guy is in the casket with his 3 wood and LD steals it.
I mean he is a master of situational comedy.
He loves breaking social norms.
Now he wears a MAGA hat as a weapon to get away from people that he doesn't want to be around.
I really can not remember seeing anything that has made me laugh more and harder than Curb.
I think its funny, because the situational things he acts on the show, are things that people would think about doing, we just never would do.
Like the 3 wood thing in the casket - its something that if we were in the position, we would probably think about doing that, just never act on it. So he just takes things like that - things people would think about doing, but he will just do them.
What’s interesting is the show is completely unscripted. No dialog is written. Larry sets a premise and they roll camera. They’re all great improve comedians and know their characters well enough to riff in ‘their voice’ and within the premise Larry has set.

I'm a few episodes in, the improv is what stands out as the genius of the show so far. Good stuff!
Curb is phenomenal. I won’t miss an episode and know a lot of them by heart.
Really enjoying this season so far
"First down inside the 10. A score here will put us in the Super Bowl. Cooper is far to the left as Njoku settles into the slot. Moore is flanked out wide to the right. Chubb and Ford are split in the backfield as Watson takes the snap ... Here we go."
