As Larry David developed "Seinfeld," he openly and unabashedly acknowledged it was "a show about nothing." Now, "Curb Your Enthusiasm," Larry David's show about Larry David similarly is a show dedicated to complete dramatization of practically nothing. Somehow, it manages to be funny anyway. Larry David stars as Larry David, who is a fictionalized version of Larry David. No narcissism in that set-up. The coincidences persist through the rest of the cast: Cheryl Himes plays Cheryl, Jeff Garlin plays Jeff, and Susie Eastman plays Susie, making it much easier to play along on the home version. A semi-retired television writer, David has trouble adapting to the social conventions in Los Angeles, and he devotes a great deal of time and energy to correcting or making-up for his mistakes"¦except when he correcting other people's rude or outrageous behaviour. In its way, "Curb Your Enthusiasm" testifies to David's and the cast's comic genius, because he outlines the plot for each episode, but the actors improvise all of the dialogue, keeping their own enthusiasm well under control.

"Castle" is the crime drama series premiered in the U.S. March 9, 2009 on ABC channel. "Castle" TV show follows the process of murder investigation conducted by Detective Kate Beckett (Stana Katic). Unexpectedly she notes the similarity of the crime scene with the same one described by the famous detective writer Richard Castle (Nathan Fillion). Castle becomes a suspect, but upon the investigation completion he proved to be innocent. Using his friendships with some powerful people in the city, he gets the opportunity to attend all investigations conducted by Detective Beckett until he gets enough material for his next book. Detective Kate Beckett (Stana Katic) got the reputation of detective who prefers an unusual cases. She joined the police after her mother was murdered, whose case was never solved. She spent a semester studying in Kiev, where she learned the Russian language. Their sometimes uneasy relationships with the Castle are often ridiculed by other TV show's character: Javier Esposito (Jon Huertas), the Detective and the another member of Beckett's team. He and detective Kevin Ryan (Seamus Dever) constantly mock Beckett, but in fact they are protecting her and treat Beckett as a very crucial part of the team . Next TV show's character is Lani Parish (Tamala Jones), medical examiner, a friend of Beckett, with whom she can talk heart to heart; advises Beckett to develop her relationship with the Castle. "Castle" TV show also features Roy Montgomery (Ruben Santiago-Hudson), Beckett's Boss. He likes Beckett's manner of investigation and her attention to details, but he always keeps his eye close on Beckett activity. He amuses with Beckett and Castle relationship, but he understands that they work well together. Another character is Alexis Rogers (Molly Quinn), teenage daughter of Castle, which much easier communicates with adults than with her peers and often behaves more conscious than her father and March Rogers (Susan Sullivan), Castle's mother, and the former Broadway actress, who dying to find a wealthy unmarried man.

Stars Hank Azaria, Kathryn Hahn, Natasha Leggero, and Al Madrigal apparently are having fun with the US version of a British hit titled Free Agents. The PR firm of CMA is the scene for much of the frivolity and even though the employees are there to assist their clientele it seems as if they can barely handle their own personal interests let alone be of assistance to any customers. Sitcoms that deal with workplace romance and banter have been popular for a long time (The Mary Tyler Moore Show, News Radio, Scrubs, Mad Men, The Office). There may be little in the way of plot line but plenty of humor, particularly of the dark and borderline mean variety. But the cast handles it all and even succeed in making the audience like them, well most of them. Sleazy and kinky yet charismatic boss Stephen (Anthony Head of Merlin and Buffy The Vampire Slayer) makes each day difficult for his staff. In the first episode we find two of the workers have committed the "cardinal" sin of employees sleeping together. Alex, played by Hank Azaria (does several voices on The Simpsons) and Helen (Kathryn Hahn of Crossing Jordan) get wasted and spend time in bed together, waking the next morning with more than just a hangover. At work other employees drill them for details and Alex nearly becomes a stalker trying to convince Helen to let him move in.

As he championed "the new journalism" in the late sixties, Tom Wolfe suggested no one ever would write anything truly compelling"”fact or fiction"”about the suburbs; he asserted, "There is no life there." During the New Depression, however, the suburbs have gone ghetto, suddenly teeming with life and depravity; and television writers are producing all kinds of compelling stuff about what they have discovered beyond the white picket fences. Witness Showtime's smash-hit "Weeds," the life and times of a "proper" suburban widow keeping-up appearances while she deals more dope than a six-pack of Mexican cartels. As in "The Office," the basic premise for "Weeds" is an import from Great Britain, adapted from the British film Saving Grace which showed a widow and her gardener conspiring to maintain the widow's lifestyle by supplying the locals with their favorite herbal refreshment. Critics frequently compare "Weeds" with American Beauty for its exploitation of the idea "Normal is the face we wear to cover how f***ed-up we are." By contrast with "Desperate Housewives," Nancy Botwin, our entrepreneurial heroine, has far more good reason for desperation than her difficulty achieving orgasm; she has a house, a mortgage, two sons, and a reputation. Since Bonfire of the Vanities tanked and "Weeds" flourished, Tom Wolfe may have to consider the distinct possibility that there is no life in Manhattan.
