'Curb Your Enthusiasm' and 'Extras'

Tonight is the fifth season premier of Curb Your Enthusiasm followed by the US debut of Extras, Ricky Gervais' follow-up to his hilarious two-season BBC masterpiece, The Office. When I first saw The Office last year, I didn't think anyone could be both funnier and as despicable as Larry David, but Ricky Gervais proved me wrong. He created more hilariously uncomfortable silences than I thought possible and it always left me wanting more. Having Curb Your Enthusiasm and Extras back-to-back might possibly create the most delightfully awkward hour of television ever. And I for one will be there!
