The red woman's undies as the final scene? Are you joking? Stick with your daytime blog job. Without that ending, all the talk about 'how you can hurt your neck, the looking at Shue's car, etc., the threesome,' etc. would be meaningless. In other words, without the ending it had, most of the show would not make sense.

The neck brace scene at the end, with Jeff, was one of the funniest wrap-ups I've ever scene in a comedy.

Larry has some incredibly tight endings, where things wrap-up in a neat and humorous package; and this episode was one of the absolute best...unlike tonight's ending which was OK, but nothing like last week.

I married a T.V. comedy writer, my father-in-law was a T.V. comedy writer. I'm not one, but with all that family conversation over the years, I know a little bit, and the neck brace scene was, as they say, "on the nose."

I still want to know why didn't Shue play herself? Every other real high-level/mid-level actor on the show has always played himself (unless I'm wrong) so Shue definitely could have. What gives? Everyone knows the Karate Kids girlfriend!!

The end, with Jeff in the brace, couldn't have been more perfect. Any other show would have left it at the panties scene, Curb goes that little bit further and that's why it's the best show on TV. Plus Larry being right about something so ridiculous about "the only two ways to hurt your neck" thing is much more fun.

Also, I think it would have been a bit odd if they had Cheryl bring up the original Tivo incident, obviously Larry didn't have a problem with it back then and wouldn't now, so why risk pissing him off and not getting the part?

Another great episode by Curb, very pleased to read we're getting two hour long episodes next.

The pants part was what I tend to hate about Larry David plots. He takes things too far. I can suspend disbelief enough to buy that he wore the pants the second day so he could retun it. But why was he wearing them AGAIN at the end, other than the joke at the end? It was a forced gag to make you believe that a man worth a quarter billion dollars would wear the same pair of pants three days in a row.

As far as Jeff's infidelity..it is nothing new this season. Every seaon is filled with Jeff cheating on Susie, or at least trying to.

This has not been the best season, but a great season nonetheless. I've actually found the non-Seinfeld episodes to be my favorites. When Larry wheeled Denise (?) Handicapped into the closet and slammed the door shut, that was one of the greatest moments in the Curb history.

Interesting thing (to me at least) is that some of the sillier things that have been done on Curb this season seem like things that would have been done, and worked better, in the more surreal world in which Seinfeld played out. Like the restaurant guy sending the cops after Larry for taking too many napkins. That gag would have totally worked on Seinfeld with George as the napkin thief.

Curb is my all-time favorite show, but one thing that has always baffled me, especially for a show that sprung from the mind of a comic genius like Larry David, is that a lot of the gags that haven't worked over the years, or felt forced, seem like things that could have been easily remedied with a few little tweaks. When we look at something and say, no way would this person or that person have done that, I always felt like a small tweak would have given the person a completely believable reason for doing it.

Nice insight on the part of the reviewer to notice the missed opportunity for Cheryl and the dredged up past.

one of the best of the season by far - it was just funny and isn't that the point

I bet Affleck stole the pants!

And FWIW I think this season has been great. Very silly but that's OK by me.

I've seen every season, and this has without a doubt been the best so far imo.

The Vehicular Fellatio, The Bare Midriff and Denise Handicapped are three of the all time funniest episodes they have ever done. All the guest stars have been incredible this season too, Seinfeld, Ted Danson and Super Dave especially.

Sorry, but I thought it was one of the funniest episodes I have seen. The themes woven with lots of laughs and the final scene, priceless.

How many times have we already seen Jeff beg Larry to bail him out of some sort of trouble with Suzie? Stale plot device.

Also, if Larry left the store with the pants he'd been trying on, how come he had his wallet and keys in them? He took his wallet out to pay for the lemonade; does anyone put their personal effects in pants they haven't even bought yet?

This season has been incredibly weak compared to prior seasons. In fact, Ben Affleck as an extra last night was probably the high point of the season for me thus far.
