Disgruntled

Curb has always been a hit and miss program, with more hits than misses.

Sadly, to mangle Gertrude Stein's quote, there no longer is any there there. Meandering storylines that inherently are just not funny. Without building to a payoff.

Too much time on the golf course, too many unlikeable characters, too many callbacks to Seinfeld or earlier Curbs, too much of time just being filled (as I watched last night on my iPad, kept checking how much longer is this slog going to last?)

Yes, it still gets a chuckle or two - and I'll watch the remaining episodes, if only to see if it can regain any of its charm. "Pretty pretty"s and stare downs were never funny and now, as was Newman's Millennium party in the wrong year, are "quite lame".

Seinfeld - the greatest comedy of all-time - went downhill in the last two Larry-less seasons but never to these depths. Thanks for the memories, Larr - but it's past time to let go.
