I like the one where he ends up at a dinner party when he's just eaten. And he's asked to take off his shoes.

From Wikipedia:

Quote:

In 2004, Curb Your Enthusiasm was credited with helping clear a Los Angeles man named Juan Catalan of a first-degree murder charge. Catalan, who was arrested on suspicion of murder, maintained his innocence, saying he was at a Los Angeles Dodgers baseball game on May 12, 2003, during the time of the slaying. During the game, an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm was being shot in Dodger Stadium which contained footage of Juan Catalan with his daughter. When told that his show had exonerated a wrongfully accused man, Larry David commented in a New Yorker article, "I tell people that I've now done one decent thing in my life. Albeit inadvertently."

Cool.

It's good to see more people getting into Curb, but give this show a chance cos it's the dog's proverbials. It even has Jeff Garlin (Larry's manager) in it. And the Fonz.

Despite the last episode of Season 5 of Curb being called 'The End', they are actually working on a 6th season right now which will probably be the last. Season 5 was a bit patchy, some of the scenarios too far-fetched, but it did have the Ski Lift episode, which is probably my favourite episode ever.
I'm not dogging on Season 5 though, it's still great

they used to show double bills of arrested development at late late hours on bbc2, they could fit 2 in 45 minutes. i loved it, so so fast and clever, i still marvel that they managed to tie everything together themselves... although i'd say i've probably only seen about half of them at a guess. they had me at 'i'm your cousin maeby.'
