The guy who said woke (aka not self centered sociopaths) have ruined comedy even though his partner on Seinfeld has had a wildly successful hit comedy series burning everyone for like eight years?
8 years? Try 24 years of Curb your Enthusiasm and it was glorious.
Also Always Sunny in Philadelphia exists and proves Seinfeld wrong as well.
I forget where I heard it but I've never forgotten it: Comedy punches up, bullying punches down. The only people who are afraid of getting canceled are the ones who do the latter.
The newest season just ended.
Last season :’(
Couldn’t recommend more!
He's been saying that since season 5.
🤞
The final season was glorious. It's over now unfortunately.
does anyone under 40 watch Curb?
I'm sure you can look up the demographics but I'm not sure how it would change the point
Me. I watch curb and I'm in my 20s
I started watching at like age 20. This is a bad take.
