Such a brilliant man. I hope he lives to be 140 and keeps making Curb until about 125. even if LD was in a nursing home it would be incredibly entertaining.
Larry David is a genius. His work has enriched my life in unimaginable ways! Seinfeld and CYE will always have a special place in my heart. Thank you, LD!
He is honest, he is a prick in his series and he is how so many of us are right there and then. He does not put a curtain in front of his performance, he is indeed a genius
This might sound elitist, but I love the real life LD’s intelligence and vocabulary. I get a rush of satisfaction when he uses a clever and unusual turn of phrase …. such as “meaningless gauntlet”. After watching decades of sitcoms tailored for a mass audience, Curb is pure oxygen.
I've always felt like Jerry represented Larry's idea of himself as a sucessful standup comic they seem very similar so it seems like it added lots to their chemistry and why they worked so well together and why the show didn't feel completely different after he left
"We always had a lot of fun writing. It was never a struggle. I don't remember us ever having to rack our brains in writing." They were both brilliantly funny, and made each other even funnier than they were alone.....more than the sum of their parts. And it came naturally to them, it was not a stretch.
Curb your Enthusiasm is the greatest sitcom in television history. Bless the person at HBO that gave Larry the reassurance that he belonged on TV. And thank god for Jeff Garlin who pushed LD out the door.
@@brodjefferson3513 no doubt, same can be said about anything that’s gone on this long. I will say that season 6-9 were great as well. Who doesn’t love Leon? xD honestly seasons 1-9 were pretty top quality and 10/11 are still pretty damn funny in their own ways.
When Larry talks about the first day Seinfeld started shooting after he left it almost sounds like he's going through the stages of grief. It really shows how much he truly loved that show and the friends he made it with. The guy is such a big softy underneath.
'The bad thoughts are funny' ... with Peep Show we got to see the thoughts happening alongside the simultaneous act that they weren't happening. An ingenious technical feat they somehow pulled off, with utter brilliance.
@@DayInDaLife Cannot disagree more. There is 'broad' comedy. slapstick, wry humor, so many categories that there are varying levels of acceptance. Curb- like Woody Allen is very arch. self deprecating. I have known ppl for who this goes RIGHT over their heads. You might wanna re-think that, sparky...
Seems to me, for Curb, it's more about the huge cringe factor- if you can see past your own cringing. Some people just can't watch one embarrassing situation after another. I don't "get" It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia in that I just don't want to spend so much time with such horrible people. I get it, but I don't enjoy it.
Huge Seinfeld fan here. Never really delve into behind the scenes stuff. It's interesting to hear Larry talk about burnout after season 7. IMO Seasons 5, 6 and 7 are the best so it kind of makes sense that he felt spent.
Ditto. That’s why I immediately fell in love with CYE. Imagine how much better the world would be if we were actually encouraged to value the truth over politeness (or compromise). Living like Curb version of LD seems to be a path to fulfillment and true happiness. We Jews don’t believe Jesus is the true messiah; coincidence?
My wife says LD is me. I'm always kicking off about stuff that doesn't matter whilst not really being all that bothered about those things that seem sooo incredibly important to everyone else. I agree with him about 90-95% of the time.
exactly and the part about the standup idea was from Seinfeld and never even became part of Curb (as far as the ones I have seen anyway). However in that Curb was improve based and Seinfeld was more firmly written, that was a change. I generally seem to prefer Curb, overall but you sure do see that the original and brilliantly funny ideas have the same source/the same writer (at least for the first many years of Seinfeld) and could have come from no body else on the planet.
My favorite episode was when he did the show up to the party the next day move. The look on his face when Jeff and Suzi does the same thing was priceless. I believe the episode was called Meet the Blacks. Lol
@@billblaski9523 Lol I had to read what I wrote twice. Looked a little confusing when I read it out loud. But yeah that was so funny. And then Richard Lewis did the same thing!! That show is the best
I really enjoy Larry David, especially "Curb Your Enthusiasm". What really surprised me is that my other favorite comedian is Ricky Gervais is in this documentary. Too funny!
I think many people live vicariously through Larry David's CYE character. I know I do. Maybe that's why RUclips started suggesting videos to me on how to be more likeable.
Love Larry’s comedy mind and honesty in life.. I have this jewish friend. We’ve been friends for over 50 years. Even after decades apart, we connect like it was yesterday. We laugh a lot. Early on, I cooked him bacon and eggs and he made some killer bagels and lox with cream cheese.
"It didn't have strong story drive and it was kinda all over the place" I swear, executives in the entertainment industry have to be the least creative and least artistic people on the planet. Every time I hear one of them speak, I become more amazed that anything even remotely good is ever made.
LOL, Oh my god, its even funnier to know that no one suggested changing the concept of the show and Larry went off on a rant about no one is going to change my story. Ha ha.
I remember Larry had an open mic night in Soho in Manhattan at a joint called Lucky Stripe on Brooke Street in the 1980s. I never went but years later I thought. Oh shit I remember that dude with the funny hair
The hardest thing to do is make a comedian laugh, so the fact that a comedian like Ricky Gervais actually loves Curb just shows you how brilliant Larry is
I heard Larry left Seinfeld because they were pushing for Jerry and Elaine to get together in the end and Larry insisted that he wasn’t making that show. Whatever the reason, it takes character and guts to walk away from a hit tv show like that so, I’m happy in the end it worked out with another show he could ultimately have more creative control over.
I remember last year HBO was supposed to release a Larry David documentary but the day before it was gonna air, Larry supposedly pulled the plug on it lol
I'M CERTAIN LARRY bought his friend and wife a house OR cared for them financially. Sometimes great success which otherwise would NOT have happened has origin/seeds planted by one comment of encouragement or suggestion. IRONIC EXAMPLE is time Bryan Cranston was on Seinfeld.. one of MANY talented actors on the show ...few of which went on too huge success. One day during a shooting break of scene when Bryan played Jerry's dentist .. he was on set alone rehearsing his lines with only a gaffer (part of set lighting crew) on stage with him. The gaffer was watching Bryan rehearse and said "you know what would be funny? before you give Jerry the sleeping gas to work on his tooth.. YOU take a hit from it before hand". ... so Bryan improvised during filming which made Jerry continually laugh having to cut and reshoot the scene again and again...which WAS DIRECT REASON Bryan's Demented Dental Character was written into subsequent episodes raising his notoriety AND subsequently led to his casting in Malcolm in the Middle... rest his history. Not to derive Bryan Cranston of his Amazing Acting Talents!! ... but again most if not ALL actors playing minor characters on Seinfeld atw AMAZINGLY talented.. yet didn't see their star rise like Cranston's stellar success...which if ya think about it... can technically ALLLLLLL be owed to that fella on a ladder fixin a light bulb who was watchin Bryan rehearse. .... now I don't know if Bryan ever looked that Gaffer up and bought him a house years later...but it'd be cool to know he did more than just say "thanks".
You know, the hard part of watching a documentary on Larry David is the fact that his show is shot like a documentary. So you can't tell if any of this is real.
Im laughing to myself thinking about what would Larry David's reaction be to me saying ( in all honesty) "My life is more enriched with Larry David in it". Larry, at that time, probably didn't have much money, and here some guy in the future is saying that his life is actually better with Larry David in it. LOL...he is a genius who to me, comes off as a great guy to just hang around with.
7:47 It is amazing. I just binge watched the complete series and from Season 8 onwards it wasnt that funny to me anymore. There was some subtlety missing.
Seinfeld was basically the straight man in his own show and that's what made it the phenomenon that it was. He knew that the other three cast members were far more talented comedic actors than he was so he wrote (and had the other writers) write plenty of funny stuff for them to do. Someone with a lesser ego would've never been able to handle other performers getting all the laughs in a show with their name on it but that's what makes Seinfeld and David truly great, they only cared what was funny.
You should check it out, it's not as good as curb but it'll make you laugh, I started watching it a few days ago cause it's on Netflix now and I'm really enjoying it even though I hate Jerry Seinfeld
Michael Richards being inspired by Larry David getting mad at the audience and yelling at them (albeit, in a Larry David funny type of way) during his failed stand up routines is hilarious. Now we know where he got the idea to yell at that audience member during his set years ago.
You know the fascinating thing is the original premise for both Seinfeld and Curb was virtually identical. Following a comedian around as he prepares his material..
I like this piece. Ricky asks the right questions and makes the right observation. It’s really about going through life saying the things we shouldn’t say. In the real world you’d get into all kinds of trouble and serious trouble. But here on the show you get along just fine especially with an enabling resume like the creator of Seinfeld. In a way it makes a statement on classism and social inequalities. While also being fu*king funny. Although some of the racial stuff is.. outdated.
Great comment. The racial stuff... outdated, but I still find much of it to be hilarious hilarious. I think he says and perceives things in Curb that mirror the the unspoken thoughts of many white people who are genuinely hostile to racism. The Bryan Cranston anti-Dentite is just brilliant. Larry sends up anti-Semites and the notion that it’s ok for Jews to be anti-Semitic at the same time. Seinfeld is also Jewish, and obsessed with it, but I don’t think he has Larry’s ear for this sort of thing.

That is the right word and his shows are so real.
When Larry was beating himself up for quitting the show, he should have had Kramer there to say, "just go back and pretend you never quit."

I found Larry's thoughts around quitting his job quite relatable. I've been in a similar position and it's weird, but you get over it.
6:09 "He was throwing down *the meaningless gauntlet* "
This might sound elitist, but I love the real life LD’s intelligence and vocabulary.
I get a rush of satisfaction when he uses a clever and unusual turn of phrase …. such as “meaningless gauntlet”.

I've always felt like Jerry represented Larry's idea of himself as a sucessful standup comic they seem very similar so it seems like it added lots to their chemistry and why they worked so well together and why the show didn't feel completely different after he left
"he said 'fuck you' and then he walked off the stage and I went 'wow what an act'"
We know Kramer. We know.
Looked for this comment
I like how Larry says he didn't get the appeal of the pilot idea of following him around doing ordinary things, while Seinfeld is exactly that
@ed miller Yeah I know it isn't exactly the same of course, because it's scripted. But it's still Larry in 'ordinary' situations
And the interviewer showed great restraint in not saying, "You just described 'Seinfeld.'"
"We always had a lot of fun writing. It was never a struggle. I don't remember us ever having to rack our brains in writing." They were both brilliantly funny, and made each other even funnier than they were alone.....more than the sum of their parts. And it came naturally to them, it was not a stretch.
