    "Curb" may be ridiculously silly, but, unlike "Extras," its shenanigans are inventive.

    The show gets back to where it belongs: under Larry's expansive roof and inside his incessantly neurotic, disgracefully tactless and unerringly heartless skin.

    It's a testament to Curb's cleverness that what's now rote--Larry offends, we cringe--can still be so surprising.

    Some episodes are so so, however, most are "pretty, pretty, pretty good". Sometimes they are unbelievably funny!

    Amazingly halarious show. True genius... comedy at its best.
