If you were a fan of Seinfeld, then this series from HBO would have absolutely hilarious to you. Curb Your Enthusiasm is the brainchild of star-creator Larry David who co-created Seinfeld and was the basis for the easily rattled George Costanza (who was played by Jason Alexander). Like George, David has a tendency to speak too much, blow things out of proportion, and, most often, fail in the end (and often liking it that way). David`s new show is also like its predecessor: it`s about "nothing" except following the day-to-day ramblings of a sometime writer and comic (this time in L.A.). Eternal questions stemming from universal daily dilemmas are honed to perfect comedic absurdity. A notable exception is the show is only scripted by plot; much of the action is improvised. The first season starts with a one-hour mockumentary following David`s return to stand-up for the first time in years; the other 10 episodes follow a more traditional sit-com setup. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0000E2PVR/ref=nosim/gotapex" target="_blank"><B>CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM</b></a>
