I read two new interesting articles on the upcoming season 6 of Curb today. Brian Lowry from Variety had this to say about what we can expect come September 9th:
After what was widely (and rightly) dismissed as a disappointing season, “Curb Your Enthusiasm” roars back with a terrific trio of half-hours to open year six, so dense and intricate in weaving together Larry David’s twisted view of humanity it’s remarkable how neatly the episodes tie together their loose ends. Widely imitated but seldom equaled in the art-imitating-celebrity-life genre, this HBO series has experienced missteps but remains the unrivaled standard-bearer in behind-the-ivied-gates glimpses of Hollywood self-obsession.
What can we expect from episode 1?
Larry will be welcoming an African-American family displaced due to “Hurricane Edna” into his house. Larry also finds a way to miss social functions. I won’t give it away but you can read it in the article.
Brian also rates the second and third episodes highly which include: “vital new insights on the etiquette of masturbation and dry cleaning; a surprisingly good guest shot by California Sen. Barbara Boxer; discussion of how many tastes is too many at the ice-cream counter; and Larry’s growing jealousy toward the saintly (Ted) Danson”.
An article on USA Today doesn’t say much more about what we can expect in season 6, but does give us hope for more Curb in the future. When asked about the possibility of a seventh season he replied the chances were now at “50-50. If I go back to Los Angeles with 10 good ideas, that will tip the balance.”

the first episode of season six was absolutely awful. So unmistakably predictable, vapid, and monotonous, that I wonder if Brian Lowry is a paid shill for Curb.

Love ‘Curb’. Sort of saw the breakup coming when Larry grabbed Sheryl’s boob when she was sick (ha ha!) Love the family living with Larry too.

Oh my god! This season was bigger and better than ever! This season comes back with a roar of laughter. Leon Black is the best addition to the wide variety of characters. He adds this whole new dimension to the show. Larry has always been perceived in earlier seasons not necessarily as a racist but socially awkward around African-Americans. Leon is someone who Larry can hang out with and have friendly conversations. He is like a black Jeff with a lot tougher feel. Every scene with these two, and laughter is not far behind!

You know I never thought I’d ever be into another TV series once seinfeld ended, but I have to say I think I may like Curbs a bit more, its funnier than any show ever created, Larry David is a genious, no episodes is awful, there ALL brilliant!

I think season six was genius! This is problably the best show I have ever seen on television. Larry David and the whole atmosphere in the show is really great! I hope they will make more seasons, because this show is outstanding!!!

I was bored with episode 1 of season 6 for about 10 minutes until the Blacks came into the scene.
The whole party thing reeked of “nothing left to do so we’ll recycle” But I was pleasantly surprised with all of the episodes.
LOVED # 60! What a way to end it!
If there is no season 7 I will be bummed, but the series went out great! Come on…Larry dancing with Vivica and the jealous look from Cheryl. Then waking up with her. The best was when she went at it with Susie and shut her down. The X-mas card was a good touch as well.
But people…Don’t get mad at the others that didn’t like the season. That is their opinion and they do have the right to that.

i too agree that six was good. Perhaps their finest season yet, up there with 3 and 4 and definitely an improvement from 5, which got too slapsticky, random, and as such forced. This season was really funny but also really engaging to me.
19 Kitty // May 7, 2008 at 4:27 am
Is there going to be a season 7?
20 Donna // May 17, 2008 at 4:27 am
There definitely has to be another season…my husband and I just discovered this wonderful show when we got HBO. Larry is absolutely hysterical and can’t seem to get out of his own way…..I never seen my husband laugh so hard…Larry is great!!!

Another thing! The reason that I love Curb is how at the beginning, there is some completely random thing…and then nothing relates to it until the end, where something unfortunate happens due to what happened @ the beginning! Gotta love LD!!!!!!

I am another fan who is waiting to find out if there will be a 7th Season of Curb! I never really found the seinfeld show to be as fantastic as most people seemed to think, however this show is the funniest creation I know of- to date. I have always anxiously awaited every new season and the Seventh would be “the most looked forward to season” of all so far, because it just keeps getting better & better!!!
