Topic: Seinfeld or Curb Your Enthusiasm? Posted: July 21 2010 at 22:54 |
I have all of Seinfeld and 2 seasons of Curb. Both favorites of mine, with Seinfeld being my favorite show of all time. Seinfeld is better but I still love Curb. Larry and his miserableness; I can't get enough of it.

Too close for me to call. I just like Larry David's style of humor, and it's there in abundance with both shows.

I like both shows, but have you noticed that Curb Your Enthusiasm's humor mainly relies on the arguments Larry has with other people? (They are funny though!!!)

Seinfeld easily, I'm not a big fan of Curb at all.

Seinfeld is the greatest show ever to be aired on television, Curb is in the top 10.

I've not seen much Seinfeld. It's been a long time, and it didn't make mushc of an impression on me at the time, but CYE is brilliant. My faveourite episodes are when Larry hires the French chef with Tourettes syndrome for the opening night of the restaurant, and when he picks up the hooker, just so he can use the pool car lane to get to the ball game on time! Great stuff!

Curb.
Seinfeld is great...but Curb just takes it to another level.

I used to be a big Seinfeld fan but to be honest - as great a show as it was - Jerry Seinfeld is (or appears to be) a pompous, sexist homophobe, and that bothers me. Yeah I know, you can't compare art to artist but what a raging a****le. And that final episode was just bad. CYE, on the other hand, is fresh, funny and more innovative than Seinfeld ever was.

Seinfeld. Any time I see it, I always watch it. Never a dull episode.

I like Curb Your Enthusiasm a lot, but Seinfeld was groundbreaking and remains one of the funniest shows ever.
