Herc’s Seen The First New CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM Since 2005!!
I am – Hercules!!
Tonight brings “Meet the Blacks,” the first new episode of “Curb Your Enthusiasm” in almost two years. It’s an instant classic, a five-star affair that had me laughing aloud so often I lost count of my many outbursts.
“Blacks” offers, I believe, one of the funniest sight gags in the hundred-year history of filmed entertainment, a gag NBC would never have allowed David to so explicitly indulge while David was masterminding “Seinfeld.” Kudos to the “Curb” propmaster.
The great Bob “I Misjudged You” Einstein is back tonight as Marty Funkhauser. Richard Lewis, Mary Steenburgen and Ted Danson (still sporting his “Damages” hair) are back as themselves. Vivica A. Fox is hilarious as a hot, chain-smoking hurricane survivor taken in by the Davids. Tia Carrere, who played Lewis’ hot foster daughter on “Anything But Love” 18 years ago, joins the cast as Lewis’ hot girlfriend.
Here’s how HBO describes the September episodes:
SEPT. 9 - Episode #51: "Meet the Blacks." Cheryl (Cheryl Hines) talks Larry (Larry David) into adopting the Blacks (Vivica A. Fox, Ellia English, Nick Nervies, Carla Jeffrey), a family displaced by a hurricane; Larry invents the "perfect" excuse for missing a pair of parties. Directed by Larry Charles.
SEPT. 16 - Episode #52: "The Anonymous Donor." The Davids and the Blacks move into a new house, and take in a new guest; Larry rewrites a dry-cleaning rule; Jeff (Jeff Garlin) finds his reputation stained; and Larry envies Ted Danson's anonymity. Directed by Robert B. Weide.
SEPT. 23 - Episode #53: "The Ida Funkhouser Roadside Memorial." Larry argues with Susie (Susie Essman) and Richard Lewis over condolences, confronts a pair of "sample abusers" at an ice-cream parlor and a perfumery, and is accused of pinching flowers by Marty Funkhouser (Bob Einstein). Directed by David Mandel.
SEPT. 30 - Episode #54: “The Freak Book.” Larry's regrets getting Richard Lewis' girlfriend Cha Cha (Tia Carrere) a job near the office bathroom; a waiter is doomed by a doggy-bag dispute; and Larry proves inept at "talking lefty." Directed by Alec Berg.
10 p.m. Sunday. HBO.
