This show has a seinfeldian feel to it, you can tell Larry David strongly influenced the George character in Seinfeld (it was based on him). This show is sort of like what Seinfeld would be, if you took out Jerry Seinfeld and made George a successful guy living in LA. Its funny but you need the straight guy like Jerry, the one who remains the neutral spectator that the audience can identify with.
This show would work better if Larry David's character had an equally influential counterpart. There is a certain formula that you can count on, Larry David is going about his day, he runs into something annoying that most people would ignore and instead he blows up about it, ruining his day and everyone else's around him.
David contributed some great stuff to the show Seinfeld, but hes got no one to hold him back here and the show gets sort of out of control. I could see how as a comedian this guy would probably be pretty funny because its always entertaining to see someone go a little bit crazy.
Its a show worth checking out for one or two episodes, I watched about 10 or 12 episodes from various seasons on HBO and thought they were decent but ultimately too neurotic for my tastes.
