progGave "Curb Your Enthusiam" another shot. Sorry, it's just not working out. I hate saying something like "It's like Seinfeld except everyone is George (and also rich)," but that really is the best description. People act predictably badly, get their comeuppance, everyone's miserable in the end. A few funny moments, but mostly it's the big eh. Three episodes in a row I tuned out halfway in, because I didn't want to see what happened next, and so that's that.
Antidote was watching "Space Ghost", which was about pee and dogs' asses, and I laughed and laughed. Perhaps I don't deserve to like shows like "Curb".
I also liked the season premiere of "Home Movies". But it also had pee in it. Sigh.
