The addition of some of those Seinfeld characters into the Curb Your Enthusiasm mix has always yielded some mixed results.

During the first season of the Larry David vehicle, Julia Louis-Dreyfus made a few appearances as did Jason Alexander. And while watching the one time George character argue about logistics with Larry was just short of brilliant, other scenes with Alexander and Louis-Dreyfus weren’t always as entertaining. That’s obviously not necessarily the fault of the scene’s participants individually, but could be chalked up to the odd inclusion of their one time script writer.

Larry David – who may or may not be as difficult as his character on HBO seems – isn’t an actor by trade and neither is Jerry Seinfeld. And while the latter gentleman made a boat load of money on television, amidst the laughs that came with his show there were still some awkward actorly moments. So putting Seinfeld in a room with Larry David might not result in the highest of thespian expectations - especially after seeing Larry work out some scenes in the latest Woody Allen movie.

Anyway, the arc of this season of Curb seems to have to do with Larry constructing some artificial scenario in which he can reconcile with his one time wife. The two run into each other with a growing frequency and since Larry and Jerry have begun scripting a Seinfeld reunion show, Larry’s worked to get Cheryl included in the cast.

As Larry and Jerry are ensconced in some tiny office space in Los Angeles, each finds it problematic that their secretary deems it necessary to expose her belly at work. The secretary is proud of the weight that she’s lost – although, she still has a ways to go – but the two writers don’t think her attire’s suitable. During a debate about who’s to approach the woman, the two shoot some odds and evens. Larry, as one would hope, loses and is prompted to have that all too uncomfortable conversation with the secretary.

It goes wrong and she quits. Shocker. But that only allows the rest of the episode to revolve around the odd relationship that Larry strikes with this bare-midriffed woman.

In an attempt to bring her back to work, Larry ventures out to her home – which the secretary shares with her mother. After waiting around to apologize and schmooze with the mom, Larry heads to the bathroom for an unruly pee. He’s recently been taking some medication that apparently affects his flow, which makes for some messes – and you should read all of this as a snatch of Larry’s real life, up to a point, at least.

Here, though, Larry is able to splash a painting of Jesus so as to make it seems as if the savior’s crying. Surprisingly enough, the tenants of the house think it’s a miracle and set off to show their wonder to the world. Only a chance encounter makes the secretary realize that it was just urine and not a miracle.

This episode isn’t top tier, but it certainly wasn’t a bummer with enough piss jokes to go around.
