I mean, MadTV went until 2009. So like a decade of overlap. But I do agree that it's still sort of surprising to see this crossover, and I have no idea why. I watched both shows regularly during their entire runs and somehow missed this. I think it would feel less weird if this was in full HD and a high-quality video. The quality of the video makes it feel like MadTV from the nineties.
@@Former_Employee Not sure why you think that but obviously it wasn’t given that Curb season 1 is from 2000. Christa Flanagan was on MadTV from 2005-2009 so the earliest this is from is 2005.
They really missed an opportunity to roast the show. I just started watching Curb your Enthusiasm. Not even past the first season but the theme is clear. No one gets Larry David and Larry gets frustrated by society.
She's always ready to throw him under the bus and never defends him even when he gets falsely accused. Her character was so unlikeable. She deserved to have one episode where she gets as humiliated as Larry. Not a minor inconvenience either. One where a crowd makes her feel terrible.
@@keithmorgan742 usually the shows parodied on mad didn't actually really have the cast in the very show they were parodying. You done being an asshole yet?
@@Mario_N64 yes they are. You can start by picking the first or last episode of the show. I challenge you to make those episodes about race in any way lol
@@gummiewormproduction Some of the most popular characters on the show are based on black stereotypes. The guy even had a do-rag. The other was a "sassy" black woman.
no but that was actually a real thing that actually really happened..i remember because i was there and you werent..remember? omg he doesnt remember /bobby
He really nails, the physical aspect of playing Larry, the walk and the head waggle. I figured the joke would be they make Larry's insensitive behavior a lot less nuanced and more outright racist but hey, you gotta have an angle on the material and it's hard to do a parody of comedy. Not a bad sketch.
Curb always seems to be based around one funny incident/joke. I can just imagine Larry David sitting at home, having a funny idea, then immediately phoning his Agent, telling him, 'I've just written another episode!'.
Possibly. I watched one full episode, tried a bit of a second, and think that this MAD skit captures the emptiness of the CYE show. I am glad for the people that enjoyed CYE, but I thought this was a brilliant critique. Quite satisfying. And I watched even fewer episodes than you.
That joke that HBO would put _Sopranos_ on hold until when _MADtv_ would've ended in 2009 is something that has me thinking; did they do any more Tony parodies or did they quit because of Frank's impersonation paling in comparison to Will Sasso's?
I was never a fan of MadTV in general- thought it always felt kinda hack-ish and amateur- but I have to admit, they really nailed the characters and feel of Curb your Enthusiasm. Well, Cheryl was bad, but everyone else crushed it.
It’s crazy how Jordan Peele goes from playing a Hispanic gardener on here (even though he’s not Hispanic) to becoming an Oscar winning horror writer/director less than a decade later.
The way you phrased it makes it seem like that was his only role (playing an Hispanic gardener). A more intelligent phrasing would be that he played a comedic all-rounder on a highly popular tv show and eventually became much more famous.
Seeing Bobby Lee here seems so much funnier and ridiculous now than it ever did. And now, knowing that he hated the “oh, hot dog!” sketch, just kills me. 😂😂😅
Bobby Lee did actually appear in the real "Curb". Playing "Sun", a Korean bookie who was suspected, by Larry, of Eating the Greene's family pet dog Oscar!
The funniest part was the observation that Cheryl never did anything, she merely walked out of rooms.
yea we saw the same video you did
@@uuuultra The funniest part was that Larry says culturally insensitive things.
Whatever
How do you know she was doing nothing if you never saw her beforehand?
@@JonSmith-cx7gr well when you are better than all the goyim you can do that..
I didn’t realize MadTV overlapped with Curb, but then I’m reminded of how long Curb was on the air…wild.

Dressed like Larry but sounds like Jerry
He sounds like Larry but also Jerry if that makes sense
💯 on purpose 😂
Rewatching Seinfeld-they all sound like Larry.
not really 👎🏽
Jerry?
He's got Larry's walk down pat...LOL!
And then Wanda got mad, and now i've recapped the previous scene!
Juanda
I can't believe she got mad at that.
Literally the only funny line in the whole skit.
this what watching curb would be like if you had brain damage
If written by "Big bang theory" writers for their fans.
It’s what curb would be like, if no one on their staff was funny. Just like watching MadTV.
They really missed an opportunity to roast the show. I just started watching Curb your Enthusiasm. Not even past the first season but the theme is clear. No one gets Larry David and Larry gets frustrated by society.
This is just a regular episode
@@metalbrainmextrememetalent6810 Right?? THe character Larry David isn't racist, on the contrary. He is annoying, clueless, picky, but not racist.
Young Jordan Peele!
And Bobby Lee!
and Larry David
Cheryl really doesn’t ever do anything lol
Except get diarrhea in a car wash.
She divorced him. That’s something. 😅
Complains and takes credit for thing Larry does.
Except looks super sexy in every episode.

His Larry David is pretty pretty pretty good!

Its both equally horrible and incredible.
Ming also kidnapped and ate Jeff's dog....
It's incredibly lame yet I keep watching it somehow expecting it to get better.
That's such a hipster thing to say 🙄
💯
I like how the Jeff character is eating a sandwich.
It's a Larry David sandwich....
I love how he's always eating everytime we see him
Ironic considering how rarely you ever see him eating on the show.
@@Gamingnstuff131He eats all the time
@@ayan5416 I don't remember him eating all that much when i watched the show. Maybe I'll have to rewatch the series and see if that's right.
The way this Larry says "whaaaaat!?" kills me.
Damn…. Michael McDonald portrays a solid Larry!
The delivery guy was also really on Curb
Bobby Lee
Dogs lover
He'd love to cook oscar
He loved that dog
Who, the blackie?
Not accurate because Jeff always wears a suit when working
Yes
So true
Camera work is spot on
The funny part is that Bobby actually was in Curb lol.
lmao it does make it 100x better
As an insane Asian there too
And Michael McDonald was in Seinfeld.
One actor on 2 different TV shows!!! That is absolutely HILARIOUS!!! Huh?
@@keithmorgan742 usually the shows parodied on mad didn't actually really have the cast in the very show they were parodying. You done being an asshole yet?

I actually love the retro way he pronounced "Chinese food" with the stress on the second word, absolutely appropriate for someone in that generation.
these are just concentrated doses of real Curb episodes.
as a fan of both shows i really enjoyed watching this one
👎🏽 didn't ask
What? No Susie!
She threatened the writer’s lives if they parodied her.
Yes I would loved to Susie Essman parodied here.
I don’t see anywhere that they did that on the internet
Would've been played will by Alex Borstein.
I've seen this clip so many times and it never fails to have me cracking up.
Ming (Bobby Lee) was actually on the show Curbed. On Curbed he played The Korean Bookie. Larry thought that he ate Jeff’s dog.
So was Will Sasso, he was an AC repairman in an episode a few seasons ago.
Micheal was on seinfeld
A lot of Mad Tv cast showed up on Curb...I guess Larry David liked their parody haha
Curbed your enthusiasm?
Best Mad TV sketch I’ve ever seen.
check out the eddie murphy rick james one with aries spears, thats another top one
The best thing about this parody is that it made me binge watch Curb. Ain't nothing like the real thing.
the real show is of course not this thin but the parody is still not too far off
Funny that Bobby Lee was actually on Curb and the joke was that Larry thought he cooked a dog fed it to everybody at a wedding
no but that was actually a real thing that actually really happened..i remember because i was there and you werent..remember? omg he doesnt remember /bobby
How did I miss this one back in the day?
You seen Larry David's genealogy report?
They owned slaves.
I had no idea this even existed.
Love the slightly off background tunes. But they made LD sound too much like Seinfeld lol
both shows (Curb and Mad) are so underrated.
A well crafted episode. All comes full circle at the end
Holy shit he makes such a good Larry David
This sketch is right on the line between hilarity and David Lynch style lucid nightmare.
He really nails, the physical aspect of playing Larry, the walk and the head waggle. I figured the joke would be they make Larry's insensitive behavior a lot less nuanced and more outright racist but hey, you gotta have an angle on the material and it's hard to do a parody of comedy. Not a bad sketch.
Frank Caliendo playing Jeff Garlin was spot on too
Love how Jeff is leaning back in his chair with a giant half sandwich.
Brilliant! Back when you were still allowed to be funny on tv!
Kept waiting for an appearance from Jeff’s wife. She makes that show.
Wow, curb has been on for a long time
“I’ll pay you in beans, because you’re a beaner!”
*WHAAAT??!!*
Awesome
''Larry'' gets in even hotter water here. Have never seen this parody before. Priceless. Sometimes I forget how funny MAD TV was.
This is terrible, but I'd probably watch every episode twice
How is this terrible?
@@marcbasil It's the same joke over and over again

Curb always seems to be based around one funny incident/joke. I can just imagine Larry David sitting at home, having a funny idea, then immediately phoning his Agent, telling him, 'I've just written another episode!'.
I like how Bobby was in both versions of curb playing the same character
this really misses the mark but somehow made me smile the whole time
Larry: *has CP on the home computer*
Cheryl: *shakes head* "Larry..."
Larry : "Whaaaaaat?"
I’d watch a full season of this stoned-out, wacky-ass shit.
I love how he sounds like Larry and Jerry simultaneously 🤣
Really, you can boil down the plot and message of Curb Your Enthusiasm into two words: "Larry's Difficult."
I can't believe these shows were contemporaries
Curb is one of the funniest shows of all time. Larry is the man
PERFECT!
This clip's finally back on YT!!
Not sure how long it was gone but once I realized it, I sought out to find it and re-upload it myself.
@@flopmuffinz I never seen this before. Thanks for uploading it.
The guy who plays Ming also appeared on Curb as Korean
"the guy". Come on man, that's Bobby Lee.
MacDonald not completely exact but gets LD content down exactly😂
As someone that has seen three episodes of curb this might be true
Possibly. I watched one full episode, tried a bit of a second, and think that this MAD skit captures the emptiness of the CYE show. I am glad for the people that enjoyed CYE, but I thought this was a brilliant critique. Quite satisfying. And I watched even fewer episodes than you.
Guy that played Ming was actually in Curb.
And the guy playing Larry was on Senifeld

I never even knew Frank DID a Tony impression. After Will Sasso perfected it (Along with many others) I"m surprised it would have been attempted.
Arie spiers is actually even more impressive
Bobby Lee actually was in Curb you Enthusiasm and he actually did play a stereotype, to the point that he was eating people's dogs
only the best meat for Song
Michael MacDonald is so good. 🤣
If Jerry Seinfeld was the star of curb 😂
this is perfect
Bobby is thebonly cast memeber that actually appeared in Curb
Literally, the video ends and it suggests "How Curb Works Without A Script".
MadTV was so awesome. I miss that show. Better than SNL.
that was brilliant
That was an incredible impression of Larry David. The only other one I’ve seen that comes close is Martin short.
HAH Michael MacDonald was fucking great
Juan applied directly to the forehead, juan applied directly to the forehead.
Hot and sour soup goes great with asparagus.
Bobby Lee for an extra bit of crossover
Pretty good summary
Wish it were longer lol

Ming was actually in the real Curb as the Korean Bookie.
"Larry...." Accurate! 😂😂😂

So this is what people who aren't smart enough for Curb think Curb is doing?
Ming stole and ate Oscar
Crazy accurate
Ming is the Korean bookie in the real show😅.
Lmaoooo how I never seen this before
The walk 😂
Curb made me appreciate how great Jason Alexander is.
The shouting
Yeah, lol, not sure why they chose to portray Larry David shouting nearly everything he says here, he doesn't speak that way in the show.
@@yellowblanka6058 this is a younger version where he still had the energy to be as annoying as he envisions himself
