{television} curb your enthusiasm; season one (2000)

Seinfeld co-creator Larry David stars in this off-kilter, oft-improvised comedy series featuring David as a writer with $400 million in the bank who is married to the woman of his dreams, but still finds a way to allow everyday to life baffle and wreak havoc on him. Shot without scripts, the show follows David around Los Angeles, blending reality and fiction to turn some of life's most banal moments into absolute comedy.

My rating: **** As a person who isn't the world's biggest fan of Seinfeld, I was unsure of this show, but it really surprised me as I enjoyed it throughly. I especially love the scene with the black woman confronting Larry about the black people, or lack thereof, on Seinfeld.
