What is Curb Your Enthusiasm about?
The off-kilter, unscripted comic vision of Larry David, who plays himself in a parallel universe in which he can't seem to do anything right, and, by his standards, neither can anyone else.
Curb Your Enthusiasm (2000)
A darkly comic Larry David navigates social minefields with cringe-inducing, witty observations.
Satirical, with dry wit. A comfort watch at a measured pace. Emotionally it carries some weight.
Streaming on Max.
