100

Chicago Sun-Times Doug Elfman

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

Hollywood Reporter Ray Richmond

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

Slate Dana Stevens

A return to classic form.

The New York Times Alessandra Stanley

Remains bracingly rude and funny.

Entertainment Weekly Gillian Flynn

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!

Brilliant sitcom from a comic genius. This is as good as it gets.

Don't get it. Don't want to.

Arif A. gave it a10:
I am happy to describe this show as a dark, disturbing, vulgar, insensitive, paradoxical, unconventional, selfish, SEINFELD-ISH and all the other thing things that would look & feel offending in the real world. BUT ITS JUST GREAT TO WATCH ON THE SCREEN!! I just cant get enough.
