Not surprisingly, Curb Your Enthusiasm’s Season 8 debut was amazingly funny last night. Here’s a recap of Larry David’s antics.

- Larry and wife Cheryl both start divorce procedings. So far its been an amicable process.

- Larry is offended to learn that his divorce lawyer is not Jewish, but merely passing as a Jew.

- Larry teaches a girl scout how to use a tampon through a bathroom door. His defense for such behaviour? ”If her nose was running and she needed a tissue, I would’ve given her a tissue.” This is quite possibly one of the best Curb scenes ever.

Curb Your Enthusiasm fans rejoice – Sunday July 10 is the return of the neurotic Larry David. Here are some of the highlights of the upcoming season:

- Larry and manager Jeff try a new Palestinian chicken restaurant. They are blown away by the chicken, but can’t help but notice the antisemitic tone of the restaurant.

- Any chance of reconciliation with Cheryl comes to a halt, and the couple begin divorce proceedings.

- Much of the season takes place in New York.

- Ricky Gervais will play an active role in the season.

Below are some spoilers for you:

Kramer Tries to Restore Image

Seinfeld’s Michael Richards, aka Kramer, made an appearance on Curb Your Enthusiasm, attempting to make a joke out of his 2006 racist rant at the Laugh Factory, TMZ reports.

In an episode of Seinfeld-creator Larry David’s popular series, Richards goes off on a African-American character and threatening him, says, “”If only there were a horrible name that I could call you … that would make you as angry as I am.”

At the same time he is being filmed by a group of spectators, mimicing the 2006 incident. He then pulls of a few Kramer-like gestures and storms off.

For fans of Richards, the 2006 tirade was the disappointing destruction of arguably the most popular character in sitcom history. While this may have helped to ease the tension, I think the best thing for Richards is to bury the incident completely.

Seinfeld Stars To Reunite On ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’

The “Seinfeld” gang is back for more laughs.

More than a decade after the end of their Emmy Award-winning sitcom, Jerry Seinfeld, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Jason Alexander and Michael Richards are reuniting for the HBO comedy “Curb Your Enthusiasm.”

The actors will play themselves in a multi-episode arc of the satirical, pseudo-reality series, which stars fellow “Seinfeld” alum Larry David.

The foursome’s appearance, which will air during the show’s upcoming seventh season, marks the first time they have starred together in a scripted program since “Seinfeld” ended its nine-season run in 1998.

David, a former stand-up comedian, co-created and served as executive producer and head writer on that show, penning such classic episodes as “The Contest.”

He went on to create “Curb,” in which he plays “himself” as a socially inept, semi-retired multimillionaire living in Los Angeles post-”Seinfeld.”

Seinfeld, Louis-Dreyfus and Alexander have all made separate guest appearances on the show over the years.
