Curb Your Enthusiasm: The Gettysburg Address (2024)
Season 12, Episode 6
8/10
Lori Loughlin has a good lie - and steals the show!

Warning: Spoilers
The return of Lori Loughlin - who out "amorals" amoral Larry - makes this the best episode of season 12. Well, that and some graffiti!

The only time I've seen LL before was in her Seinfeld episode - which Larry was NOT involved with (though as Ted needlessly and needingly confirms, he DID write the finale!)

Always thought the prosecution/persecution of Lori and Felicity Huffman (who I would love to see next) in a time when violent criminals are sprung was insane. So maybe that opinion contributed to the love of her performance.

Regardless, Lori's scenes in which she's so rude to her country club benefactor (for the sin of missing a putt and chit chatting when he should be chipping) along with her clueless amorality in golf cart usage - claiming disability based on a favorable hematologist report that she can't remember when applied to preferred parking)- is OUTSTANDING!

So is Larry's take on Lincoln - "This exclusive club, of specific people, by specific people, for specific people" - shows that all his time learning while urinating has not been in vain.

The added alopecia outrage debuting on Oscar night was a bonus (as was Susie's billboard for her latest dumb style innovation being defiled.)

Because of Jeff/Larry's idea and Lori's self-deprecating humor in her willingness to maximize the laughs, funniest episode of the year. And one of Curb's all-time bests.
