Curb your criticisms – or at least that's what 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' star Cheryl Hines says about the latest questions about the show's edgy humor.

"I haven't talked to him about it, but I am sure [he would say] they probably shouldn't watch the show if it is going to offend [them]," Hines told Moviefone at Thursday's Ante Up for Africa event outside L.A., to benefit Darfur charities. "Because Larry [David] has skewered all kinds of subjects and himself. That's the nature of the show."

Does 'Seinfeld' creator and 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' Larry David like to poke fun at Christians, or is he just an equal opportunity offender?

The Catholic League says it's the former, taking issue with the Oct. 25 'Curb' episode in which the TV version of Larry was taking a medication that led him to have an extremely, um, forceful urination experience. As a result, while using the bathroom of a woman who had a painting of Jesus hanging beside her toilet, Larry's splashings hit the wall -- and the painting -- leading the woman to think her Jesus painting was crying and that she was experiencing a miracle.

HBO described the episode as "playful," while Fox News reports that Catholic League president Bill Donohue was less than amused by the plot.

Jerry, Elaine, George, Kramer ... what are you doing here?

'Curb Your Enthusiasm' returns for its seventh season this Sunday after a long hiatus (the show last aired in November 2007), and the big story will be Larry David putting together a 'Seinfeld' reunion. Yup, the gang -- Jerry Seinfeld, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Jason Alexander and Michael Richards -- will be back together again.

When last we saw Larry, he'd hooked up with Loretta (Vivica A. Fox) after taking her Hurricane Katrina-affected family into his home. Now, as selfish as ever, he wants to break up her -- even though she's sick -- and reconcile with ex-wife Cheryl (Cheryl Hines). And to facilitate that, he cooks up a 'Seinfeld' reunion so he can offer her an acting part.

David has said, "The more people I can offend, the better." The show even plans to address Richards' racist tirade scandal from 2006.
