:lol

Blossom (I can't remember her real name) was just on an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm. Another great show I might add.
 
Got them all and love em'!!! Anyone else lovin' the Marty Funkhouser character more this season? His character has been really top notch so far!
 
See, I don't like "Curb Your Enthusiasm" for the same reason I don't like the UK Office - none of the characters are remotely likeable. I get the "love'em because they're flawed" thing, but it just doesn't work for me.

The UK Office was designed as a limited series. They never even considered having to sustain those characters for 7 seasons, so they could all be hateful. But US television is just different.

Extras was cool though - it was fun seeing stars acting like you'd think they'd act in real life, but way over the top.
 
I guess I just like unlikable people. They are more fun to me. The more awkward the better. I am glad they make all types of TV shows though. Variety is good. :rock
 
On the same note, I love to despise characters. It keeps me interested in the show. Once there is no more conflict I get bored. This mainly goes for action/drama shows.
 
Look at Seinfeld (co-created by Larry David). None of the characters are really likable, yet it's one of the best comedies ever.
 
as detestable as David Brent was I was still cheering him on when he told finch to F off @ the party

And to confirm, extras will not have any more new season but will finish in a 2 part special aired at xmas over here in the UK
 
The Simpsons are lovable though, despite the flaws. Personally I never liked Seinfeld much either...
