12. Curb Your Enthusiasm
Release Year: 2000
Seasons: 8
Creator: Larry David
Starring: Larry David, Jeff Garlin, Cheryl Hines, Susie Essman
Larry David has been a fixture in pop culture for decades after creating Seinfeld with Jerry Seinfeld in 1989. David continued his specific brand of comedy with his own creation, HBO’s Curb Your Enthusiasm, in 2000. Somehow, Larry David has a masterful talent in creating shows about “nothing” and turning them into compelling classics.
Playing a fictionalized version of himself, Curb Your Enthusiasm doesn’t have a hook or a high-concept plotline. Much like Seinfeld, the series concerns its comedy with the common minutiae and trivialities of everyday life. Larry David (fictionalized Larry David) rubs people the wrong way with his abrasive personality and unwarranted social commentary, causing friction all around him.
Featuring a hilarious main cast and a revolving door of recognizable guest stars playing fictionalized versions of themselves, the mostly improvised comedy series will return with a brand new ninth season in 2017 after an extended hiatus. Be sure to curb your slacking and catch up on the past eight seasons.
