Larry David has created a pretty funny show. While that may be inappropriate, it seems silly to over-react and boycott an entire channel over something like that.
I will give you that the show has been getting pretty crappy this season.
This season feels like they are trying too hard. Otherwise, I love the show. I didn't see the episode in quesion and it does sound offensive but have to say that they don't target any specific groups. Usually it's just good humor.
He didn't piss on the picture, his piss splashed on it - huge difference and very misleading to anyone who didn't see it.
I took it as an attempt to make fun of the folks who see something on an Icon or picture of Jesus and think its a miracle or if they think they see an image of the Virgin Mary on an english muffin (or was it a grilled cheese sandwich?).
nuttin like sum good ole fashioned over reacting... think that show is bad, check out Always sunny on FX

It's a %$%$%$%$ing comedy show.
He didn't actually piss on a priest, church, crucifix etc. it was a PICTURE on a comedy SHOW!
And as far as other religions, I'll point you towards 'Always Sunny' they had an episode titled 'the gang goes jihad'
never heard a peep out of that either.
What about family guy? They continually mock all religions, and is one of the top rated shows.
Don't like it, don't watch.

I must be too old for this %$%$%$%$. I have been a Catholic my whole life and to see this jackass splash his pee over a picture of Jesus was an affront to me. I guess there is no common decency or respect anymore. Does not bode well for future generations if all it takes to do something so depraved and immoral is to make it funny. Good Luck.
In context, it is actually more of a commentary on what passes a miracle these days...
The joke was not, lets watch Larry David whip it out and piss on Jesus....

I took it different after watching it. It was pisser funny. He didn't piss on anything they just left it up to you to decide if he did.
That girl's got a lot of guts.
Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
What a disgrace to Christians all over the world. The main character pissed on a picture of Jesus. Boycott HBO. Not funny at all.
Wow! You portrayed it as if Larry David took a picture of Jesus off the wall and said "Efff You Jesus!" then unleashed his stream onto Jesus' forehead. Talk about a complete utter overreaction.
I'm more offended by the blond's muffintop spilling out all over the place. I'm thinking about boycotting HBO over that.
If you are a fan of Curb Your E ,you would know that Larry's Pee goes all over the place when he P's, it's like he gets a woodie if he hugs someone more 7 seconds, it's the norm for him

dig below it, and see it for the religious satire it is regarding the gullibility of people and miracles..
or just enjoy the muffin top
