I am a big fan of Larry David and immediately thought of it when I saw Itching, indeed up to and including the music it seems. However, the script is unknown to me and therefore not copied from Curb Your Enthusiasm. I think it's a nice series, great without the laughing sound of the (studio) audience.
Itching you have to learn to look, cringing? Yes, but that is precisely the intention, if you go along with that, you will appreciate this. In any case I do. Itching is fun.
Itching .... a new TV series, but unfortunately nothing special. I expected more. I had hoped better . Very unfortunate .... unfortunately the series does not get any further than the simple, banal, vulgar pee-poo-cock-cunt-tit humor. Unfortunately, the level of humor never reaches any pleasant intellectual level. Apparently there was no money available for a scriptwriter of any size.
I think "Itching" is very similar to Larry David's American series "Curb your enthusiasm", even the music in the series is very similar. However, I find the Dutch version very mediocre, especially because such a series does not work with other characters. The plot, execution and setting is also a lot less. I would almost say: people do yourself a favor and watch the original.
