10 Funniest Curb Your Enthusiasm Episodes

10. Trick Or Treat (Season 2, Episode 3)

"With all due respect, you have chosen to shave your hair. That's a look you are cultivating to be fashionable and we don't really consider you part of the bald community."

Larry's rather sensitive about his male pattern baldness so when 'Bald A***ole' is spray-painted on his home, he's crushed. It's Halloween and Mr David takes a stand against 2 teenagers not in costume trying to trick or treat. Due to the lack of treat, the David household suffers a bad trick via endless toilet paper and a feud with one of the guilty teen's fathers over Larry's (lack of) Jewishness.

As if all that wasn't enough for one episode, Larry does battle with a wheelchair-bound screenwriter over the origins of the Cobb Salad and makes a fool of himself in front of the police. Larry's unwritten rules of society came back to bite him here in one of the show's seminal earlier instalments. Sharply written and acted, the storylines come together for a very satisfying conclusion. It's all highly amusing stuff and a perfect showcase of Curb's penchant for comical embarrassment.
