Curb Your Enthusiasm - Series Three
The error-strewn world of former SEINFELD creator Larry David returns in this third helping of CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM episodes. No one puts their foot in it quite like David, with his successful life as a multimillionaire comic constantly tarnished by mishaps and gaffes. Cheryl Hines returns as Larry's long-suffering wife, as does his manager Jeff Garlin, and best friend Richard Lewis. Some of the insurmountable obstacles careering unstoppably towards David include a mentally unbalanced nanny, an Alanis Morissette concert, Martin Scorsese, and, perhaps the highlight of the show, the rapper Krazee-Eyez Killa. Illustrating that no amount of success can prevent real life from crashing the party, Larry David's innovative show continues to go from strength to strength.

Curb Your Enthusiasm - Series 4
Larry David's post-SEINFELD career continues apace with the fourth season of CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM. The concept for the show which sees David playing himself as he attempts to undertake various creative projects, while frequently landing in hugely entertaining trouble wherever he turns was highly original when CURB first aired. But by the time the Fourth Season aired, imitators were waiting in the wings, as celebrities such as Kirsty Alley (FAT ACTRESS) and Lisa Kudrow (THE COMEBACK) honed their own, similar shows. Undeterred, David manages to breath new life into the formula, even producing one of the best episodes yet in 'The Car Pool Lane'. Incredibly, this episode, which saw the beleaguered star attending a Dodgers game with a prostitute so he could travel in the car-pool lane, ended up overlapping with a real-life court case. The CURB team caught a murder suspect, Juan Catalan, on camera during the game, with their footage eventually proving his innocence in the case. One of the main themes of the show involves David's attempts to avoid tension at all costs while unwittingly landing himself in it, making the incident enjoyably ironic. Further adventures see our hapless hero attempting to buy medicinal marijuana and attending Ben Stiller's birthday, while his long-suffering wife Cheryl Hines and manager Jeff Garlin reach new levels of exasperation at David's behaviour. This Season is tied together by a long-running plot which sees David preparing for a role in a Broadway production of THE PRODUCERS, with the final episode shot on opening-night in New York City. Providing a deliciously funny climax to David's fourth series of adventures, fans of the show will no doubt be delighted to know that nothing goes according to plan.

U2 - Zooropa (CD)
1 of 1 found this helpful ZOOROPA is a CD I had been meaning to add to my collection for ages, so I saw the opportunity to purchase it inexpensively on eBay.
The bright, digital-looking album artwork alone hints at U2's intentions on ZOOROPA--to take the group's electronica-laced approach on ACHTUNG BABY to the next level. While ambient-music pioneer Brian Eno had a strong presence on the former album, here he's practically a fifth member, contributing synthesizers and keyboards to most of the disc's 10 tracks.
Fans looking for vestiges of the old, JOSHUA TREE-era U2 are essentially left empty-handed, though the gorgeously spare and melancholy "Stay (Faraway, So Close!)" does touch on their earnest earlier sound. ZOOROPA truly gets going with the fascinatingly droning "Numb", which features the Edge on lead vocals and stands as the most adventurous single that the Irish quartet has ever released.
From here the album hits a stride, careening through the giddy Euro-disco of "Lemon", the aforementioned "Stay (Faraway, So Close!)", the heavily percussive "Daddy's Gonna Pay for Your Crashed Car", and the funky, chiming "Some Days Are Better Than Others". Wrapping up the quirkiest outing in U2's discography is an appropriately strange, yet inspired song--"The Wanderer", where Kraftwerk-like synths and dreamy backing vocals support the unmistakable voice of the legendary Johnny Cash.
Although, ZOOROPA is often overlooked, it's an ambitious record that marks a crucial point in U2's evolution.
CD was packaged well,and delivered promptly ..
