    "I wonder if some of this actually happened to him."
    The character George Costanza in Seinfeld is based on Larry David. There are SO MANY times in Seinfeld where George does something crazy, and you think "no real peeson would actually do that", only to find out later that Larry David did, in fact, actually do it.

    11:00 "This is horrible communication...you could have avoided so much of this..." That pretty much sums up "Curb Your Enthusiasm"!

    The reason the dialogue seems more natural is that it’s not scripted like traditional shows. The “script” gives the actors general instructions about what their character does or how their character feels about a situation, and gives them leeway to improv 90% of the dialogue based on that.

    Glad you’re doing CYE. I’m a Brit and I’m not really ‘into’ American humour except for a few (much older) outstanding sitcoms etc. However, a few years ago when I accidentally watched a scene or two of CYE, I was hooked. I went out and bought the box set of DVDs and - in many, many episodes - almost died laughing. To let you know… it gets even better as the episodes and seasons go on. Larry is the perennial victim of circumstances. The show is hilarious! Just one point… you mentioned that it’s “so well written”. In actual fact, much of it (I’m led to believe) is ad-libbed and spontaneous, just working around a basic structure of a 'script'. This is what makes it so real and down to Earth.
    Another point… Richard’s new girlfriend (played by Sofia Milos) is in the episode of “The Sopranos” in which Tony goes to Italy. She’s the daughter of the mafia boss.
    Can’t you do the complete episodes rather than shortened versions?

    I'll be here for all of your Curb reactions.
    You don't need to watch Seinfeld, lots of people I know who love Curb aren't interested in Seinfeld. The comedy is different as well. The only way it matters is when it comes to "what does Larry do for a living?" moments. Basically the Larry you are seeing right now is flush and barely interested in "doing" anything again. Lol, you'll see as it goes on when Larry does actually "do" something, there is usually some bigger ulterior motive lol. Great show, the best support character doesn't even appear until season 6, luckily for you the regular support characters are all solid and when the new one I inferred comes in it will just be an extra dose of greatness on top.

    Maybe you know this already, but this show has very minimal writing. They have basic outlines for the plot and most of the dialogue is improvised, which is probably a big reason everything feels natural.

  • @dkrom
    @dkrom 8 месяцев назад

    Not necessary to see Seinfeld beforehand. I grew up watching Seinfeld and it’s still my favorite show of all time.
    I saw this show randomly on HBO in December 2002 and I liked it. The cringe goes to eleven every episode.
    The main guy is Larry David, co-creator of Seinfeld with Jerry Seinfeld, and the inspiration for the George Constanza character on that show. He plays a fictional version of himself.
    Also, the dialogue on this show is improvised. Larry will give a premise for the actors to do and then they improv the dialogue.
    Richard Lewis and Larry are friends in real life too.

      Not really. The only thing about Seinfeld that matters in this is Larry will be known by people he interacts with from Seinfeld or sometimes bring it up himself, casually or in pitch type meetings. It's not really important, but would make S7 a little more fun personally

The first 3 seasons are mediocre as hell and you'll find yourself bored for the most part. And as there isn't a real plot, you're not at risk of missing anything important.

      Seinfeld is the one of the most creative, influential, and brilliant shows ever made. It holds up extraordinarily well.
      To the extent one might think it doesn't, it's overwhelmingly because basically every comedy made since the 90s has tried to copy parts of the Seinfeld formula, so it isn't as fresh to someone who didn't see it in real time.
