(S06E01) "He knowingly fed us penis!" - Larry
Well that was interesting. Disappointing? Sort of... but not really. Honestly, this episode was a perfect example of what makes Curb so good. However, I think that since it's been gone for two years I had built this premiere up in my head way too much. So it fell a little flat for me. Did I laugh hysterically? You bet. Did I feel uncomfortable more than once? Check. Did I inadvertantly compare it to every other great episode? Yeah... and there lies the problem with Curb Your Enthusiasm. You end up comparing apples with oranges and in reality you've got pineapples, watermelons, kiwi, and a few kumquats for good measure.
