Aye. C'mon now. I even gave you the link. What more do you want? ;)

That 'spoiler' above about surnames was brilliant. Thought it was a classic episode overall.

Kamikaze Bingo and The Ski Lift are classic, classic episodes, though.

Do agree with you - it's probably the weakest of the lot, but it still pisses over pretty much everything else on telly.

At several points I just sat laughing like  a drain. One or two scenes go straight into my Larry Top 10.

Oh aye. Definitely. Just the whole 'reveal' about the cake. And are you tempted to use his 'got the wrong night for the party' trick at all?  :D

I'm tempted to, that's for sure. His face when he turns round to Jeff and Richard stealing his idea is classic.

Its all about Richard Lewis for me...he's the most disgruntled, dysfunctional man I've ever seen outside of the mirror that is...have a look at the expression on his face in season 5 when Larry breaks down his baseball in vagina theory, took a couple of viewings to notice just how funny it is.

The whole supporting cast is so strong, from the longsuffering Cheryl to Susie to my hero, Jeff... but you're right. Lewis is on another level. Those big vagina ladies are getting away with murder.

yes both of them were superb, but overall, I couldnt help but be disappointed with it. All reviews from here and elsewhere would suggest its back to its best so I just cannot wait to get a look at it!

also the look on his face when he can hear Larry's phone ringing 'in the distance' when the nurse is right beside him. Fantastic!

Won't give anything away, but I will say there is a classic, classic Jeff bit in it.

I take back what I said earlier about the 5th series being poor..... Watched all 10 episodes again over the weekend, and it was much, much better the second time around! Well in the mood for the new series now

Demonoid was down when I was looking and my second and third port of call, piratebay and torrentspy, didn't have it. Ah well, got it in the end and watched it last night. Another good episode, I though.

Watched it last night. Didn't really feel like a Curb episode if it makes any sense? Maybe I'm so immune to it! Anyway, still had its funny moments.

Take it there won't be a running theme - apart from having The Blacks there I suppose - in this series?

No, I think you're right there, though the running themes haven't always worked for me. Couldn't agree more with the line about people who have lots of children though...

Ah I see what you did there - forgot the surname gag. :D

This series doesn't seem to be as 'subtle' to me. Not meaning to be critical - in fact, the storylines don't even have to be good for it to make you laugh out loud on a number of occasions, as I have done for each episode of the series so far.

As for the running storylines - it obviously doesn't matter and when you watch old seasons, it's only relevant in a handful of the episodes really. But I will always maintain that - for what it is - series 3 is my favourite. The Grand Opening will probably NEVER fail to make me grin like a Cheshire Cat at the end.
