I love those poster ads for the show. The ad is a picture of a carnival shooting game, and they're all headshots of Larry David making a mopey face. The caption is "Wherever he goes, he's always a target".

Daddy is right, this season is relatively weak.

Relatively being the key word. It is still great material. I think it is on its way back up after last season.

I can't believe you people think 4 is that bad, or that 5 isn't the worst by far.

Maybe it's looking up though. This week's scene with the girls whilst Hugh was in the bathroom was sublime.

How could you not love Kamakazee Bingo?

I laugh at pretty much everything Larry David says, so this season is still really entertaining.

You would even more if you knew Nate's dad really well. Identical twins seperated at birth.

CYE is still good but in this series i feel that there's too much stuff happening per episode. It feels slightly rushed to fit it all in to half an hour, less ads. Not all the stories wrap themselves up the huge embarrasing denouement like in previous series. Some of the threads in each episode seem lost for good. This series would be greatly improved by moving to an hour per episode in my opinion.

This is what I was saying before. The end of Kamakazee Bingo is very un-curb ending like, and I didn't like the way they ended it. Could have done much better. The rest of the episode was great IMO.

I thought the end was one of the best parts of the episode.

I'm just saying it wasn't drawn out enough. It was a fast, abrupt one liner image type ending which isn't in the Curb spirit. It is much more funny to be slowly drawn out like in Vogner where Larry gets his revenge at the end or in the Fork Stealing Finale where he gets his undeserved cummupons.
