Curb your enthusiasm which season is the best

Though the season was accused of Flanderization, which is when characters become vastly exaggerated versions of themselves, these episodes have some brilliant set-ups with extremely satisfying payoffs. Season six is one of the very best seasons of the show for one reason only: Leon.

The foul-mouthed but true-to-himself character came at a perfect time, as he arrived right before the show could have started getting old. Leon and Larry have a strange relationship, as Larry seemingly lets him stay at his house in return for Leon being some kind of bizarro life coach. Leon is the guy behind the glass that Larry breaks in case of emergency, as nobody can seem to win in an argument against him. The result is something far more special than the kind of full-fledged continuation it would get nowadays, giving you just the right amount of these characters back in action without overstaying.

He was an icon! The penis doesn't care about race, creed, and color. The penis wants to get to his homeland. It wants to go home! In a battle of false niceties and some very sneaky work by Fox, David meets his match by trying to argue with a man whom everyone else undoubtedly loves so much more than him.

Larry should get props so openly supporting a child who may be gay, but of course, he had to also go and inadvertently get the kid obsessed with the Swastika, so…. He thought they were a bit much. Curb has touched on topical issues in the past, but with the opener for season ten, they came roaring out of the gate by tackling numerous hot button issues, all of which would have a role to play in the rest of the season.

On top of that, Larry gets involved with his ex-wife Cheryl again and kicks off his most devious idea yet — The Spite Store.

Matt Rooney is a freelance writer for Collider. Not only does it stand as a clever way to do a Seinfeld reunion without really doing one, it's incredibly funny on its own and never suffers because of it. A major part of Season 7's excellence is J. Smoove as Leon, who gave the show the second wind it needed. Loretta Black finally leaves Larry, yet Leon is strangely undeterred, opting to continue living with the curmudgeonly writer.

Leon sides with an old man he barely knows over his own family, and a later episode reveals that he's never even seen Seinfeld , so who does he think Larry is anyway?

The two form a dynamic duo, and Leon effectively becomes Curb 's Kramer. And when Leon hilariously poses as Danny Duberstein, the two icons come face to face in an unforgettable scene. Season 7 is home to hysterical moments like Larry yelling, "Shut the f--k up! In "Denise Handicap" Larry fumbles his way through the dating scene, accidentally taking two different women with disabilities to the same concert.

I happen to enjoy wearing women's panties. Seinfeld 's sets are lovingly recreated, and beloved supporting characters like Newman and Kenny Bania return. This is not just for show either, as Larry and Jerry put together a legitimately great, new Seinfeld episode, using story ideas taken from Curb Your Enthusiasm. The plot centers around George trying to get his ex-wife back, just like Larry is trying to do with Cheryl.

The whole episode is a victory lap for David that even sees him embody the role of George, albeit pitifully. It's nearly indescribable to sum up just how surreal it was to see a brand new Seinfeld episode within another show.

Beyond pure nostalgia, David never loses sight of Curb and uses the conceit to propel the story forward. Jason Alexander and nemesis Mocha Joe ruin Larry's best-laid plans to re-connect with his wife, and after everything goes awry, Larry quits the show he created and gives it all up.
