A certain piece of piano music is not on the soundtrack but was used in the show as well as several current [[A.G. Edwards]] TV commercials. It's very choppy and catchy. Does anyone know the name or artist of this piece? People across the 'net have been trying to figure this out. Thanks. [[User:Caleson|Cale]] 07:17, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

Actually there are several pieces from the show not included on the unofficial soundtrack. Does anyone know the names/composers? [[User:24.88.64.59|24.88.64.59]] 03:48, 5 January 2007 (UTC)King Negro

Confusing dates

The opening paragraph mentions the 1999 special that later spawned the series, but the side-box lists an initial airing date in 1998. IMDB lists the initial airing date as October 15 2000, but perhaps someone a bit more familiar with it could clear that up? - DaveR 03:34, 28 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Last episode

What is the wikipedia convention for the last episode date. If the season finale (but not necessarily the series finale) has already taken place and there is a long break until another episode, if any, what do we write for the last episode? CoolGuy 01:57, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You don't write anything for the final airdate unless it is the last episode. Zone46

Capital Case

A guy named Juan Catalan was cleared of eyewitness-based murder charges and possible execution after footage shot for Curb at a baseball event showed he was 20 miles from the crime scene at the time. It was of significant news in and around LA and could be included in the article. See:

British show with same title?

There was a British show with the same title that is extremely famous in Germany but unheard of in the UK. It is considered by many to be a classic on a par with faulty towers. There was I think only one show and it involved (a butler?) who continues to serve his now lady diner. I do remember the punchline "The same procedure as last year, Miss ((can't remember))" to which she replies "Yes ((butlers name)), the same procedure as last time Mr. ((blank))"

Does anyone know how to find info on this program now that the US show is around?

The show is turning into a legend as great as the One arm kickboxing movie, and I'm beginning to wonder if it's just an urban legend.

An IMDB search for "Curb Your Enthusiasm" lists only the US Larry David show. Sorry, dude. --Jacj 21:54, 2 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]


You're thinking of Dinner for One. --Serge 23:06, 24 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

And as a non contributor, Dinner for One sucked ass. Sorry. 71.194.6.238 06:37, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

High definition?

From looking at the images contained on List of Curb Your Enthusiasm episodes, it appears that season 5 was shown in high definition. Is this correct? Was this the first season to do so? Cheers, Lbbzman 00:02, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Music

I've added information about the music, this information is from the sleeve notes from the album that I own and commissioned, I'm happy for them to be used here before anyone points it out. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rickspace (talkcontribs)

Can anyone explain to me what the hell is going on in the third paragraph of the music section? I'm tempted to delete it because I don't think it's relevant to the music of the show, but I don't understand it, either. Wangoed 14:56, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Somebody thinks that including in this article a list of tracks from the CD is a copyright violation, in particular violating the copyright of amazon.co.uk [1]. See Wikipedia:Copyright problems#June 19, 2006.--Mathew5000 16:09, 19 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oops, my mistake. It isn't the list of tracks that was thought to be a copyright violation, it was the info about the CD in this edit. It is in fact a clear copyright violation as it copies verbatim from the review at Amazon (five paragraphs beginning with "The utterly compelling music"). The copyvio text was added by User:Rickspace, who founded the record label that released the CD. (And guess what, the same user also created the article for the record label he founded.) --Mathew5000 06:20, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
And if you look at the top of this section you'll see a comment he left on this very matter. Tnikkel 06:55, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I have removed the copyvio tag from this article. Copyvio is to be used when it's not possible to revert back to a version of the page that doesn't have copyright violations. Since only one section of the page is in question, it's more appropriate to just revert. See Wikipedia:Copyright problems#Instructions for details. Cheers, Lbbzman 11:09, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Why did you guys remove it? I clearly said that it was OK for the article to be used here. --Rickspace 15:33, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"A-Listers"

How is David Schwimmer an "A-lister" yet Jason Alexander and Julia-Leyfus Drewis (sorry about my spelling) , also cast in a multi-million dollar generating sitcom are simply "Seinfielders"? maybe it is more relevant, still i wouldn't call Schwimmer A-list when he hasn't really been in the public eye of late.

Largo

Largo (nightclub) says that the original HBO special was recorded at that (tiny) nightclub in Los Angeles, CA. Unfortunately it doesn't cite a source that supports that. If one can be found, that would make a nice addition to this article (indeed, a bit more in general about the special might be worthwhile). -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 21:44, 1 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Final season?

I see that there is now a mention that the sixth season will be the last for the series. Can we get a citation for this? From what I've heard, every season could be the last until suddenly Larry feels like making a few more ;) Technocratic 13:28, 26 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Piano Piece Not on Soundtrack

A certain piece of piano music is not on the soundtrack but was used in the show as well as several current A.G. Edwards TV commercials. It's very choppy and catchy. Does anyone know the name or artist of this piece? People across the 'net have been trying to figure this out. Thanks. Cale 07:17, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ewan McGregor?

For some reason Ewan McGregor was said to be Larry's second guide in "The End", so I changed it to Sacha Baron Cohen. Tuwile 07:56, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
