An excellent seamless comeback
11 September 2007 | by (Canada) – See all my reviews

I really enjoyed it. In my opinion, this is one of the greatest episode of the whole series.

It's been almost two years since the last episode and God did I missed that show! The great thing about this episode is that it feels fresh, not like it really has been all this time and they had to reformat the show nothing has changed. All is well in curb world. All is well indeed!The formidable chemistry between actors is once again palpable. The cake, the party excuse and the black family are all instant classics. I laughed and laughed at the smoke alarm incident. I know this particular joke is not outrageously original, but seeing Larry struggle at a wire was something . That brings me to the fact that once again, it's always kinda his fault on how thing unfolds.

I really cannot wait for the rest of the season. I really think that it could be the best season to date to this rather excellent series.
