The very first joke of Larry David's standup career, in fact his first words to an audience: "Let me tell you about good-looking people…We're not well liked."
And that´s actually true lol
And that´s actually true lol
Love that, he is funnier than his co- writers, close to Seinfeld ....
I love this!!!
😆😆😆
You can tell he is the brain behind Seinfeld
He's the comedic genius. Without him, we'd never have known Seinfeld.
He's also the bald behind Seinfeld
Absolutely
@@Joseph1NJ , Seinfeld was hired by NBC, then Jerry asked David to write the show with him. Seinfeld was already doing pretty well for himself before the show. Without the show, we definitely wouldn’t know who Larry David was. I think they would both say they were both the brains behind the show. It wouldn’t have been great without both of them.
@@caseyquinn9282 See, when I watch the show, all I see is Larry David. BTW, the first season of Seinfeld sucked. I honestly don't know how it survived.
In the 80s, he dated a woman whose father wrote the book Revolutionary Road. The first time he was supposed to meet him, the daughter got held up and he ended up having to spend 2 hours at a restaurant alone with the most intimidating man he'd ever met. This is what inspired the Seinfeld episode where they meet Elaine's father.
Hahaha yes! When talking about episodes of Seinfeld especially early seasons Larry has mentioned he did that or it happened to him haha
Monica Yates and her father Richard Yates
He’s in the batroom 😂
Nothing funny about that.
The first time I met my future father in law my future wife had decided to step into the shower. Fortunately he was the most marvelous man I had ever met and we got along famously. But when I saw him pull up in the drive I just about s**t myself.
LD is so free, I mean psychologically free, even in front of the camera. it's rare to see such spontaneity and honesty and ability to laugh at oneself. Makes me envy him
I agree, 💕 the DUDE...
Money will do that for you
Its easy when you have a billion in the bank and dont have to kiss anyones ass
@@DMU386 thats true but Larry has always had that attitude of not really caring and speaking his mind 100%. he says in his early stand up days he struggled bc he would fight with the audience and straight up walk off right after walking on lol and the whole blowing up and quitting SNL then coming back the next day. he is the funniest man alive!
You could make an argument he's enlightened in the Buddhist sense if he didn't spend all day finding fault with everything!
The more I watch him, the more I realize I'm becoming him. He's seemingly the most sensible person on earth
Exactly!
Too true
Speaking facts!
I'm similar I think, but I really don't think he's that sensible all the time.
@@AntonQvarfordt I think he is sensible, but in an unsensible way.
The man responsible for the funniest shows on TV for the last 30 years
Curb.
And yet he is not really funny, genius yes but comedian no. Still can’t help liking him.
Larry is amazing pity Jerry likes to take the credit for everything
@@warrenfuchs2304 Do you think so? I have heard Jerry praising Larry in interviews
@@warrenfuchs2304 well it is the actors that makes it come to life
I can listen to Larry all day just talking about life
i wish he had a podcast. i just listen to him rant and talk about everything
Or nothing at all
Serenity now😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@256k_ this pretzel's making me thirsty🤣👏👏🤣🤣🎆
No soup for you!! 😡
"I pay." Classic. This is why David is so funny: "I pay."
This confused me before I watched the whole thing because they're both named David.
This was one of the funniest interviews I've ever seen, and Larry is so funny when he's just being himself.
You should watch Jerry interview him on Comedians in Cars...
Or any Norm interview.
That is his genius.
@Jay Browne what??? He pays!
@@jkhoover that was great!
Watching these videos I realize how fantastic Jason Alexander was in Seinfeld.
acting without acting
Really? Was Jason Alexander ever "fantastic" in ANYTHING? In the true sense of the word.
@@lm_b5080I'll read it with dinner
@@jondunmore4268 yeah, in Seinfeld.
@@justinman114-- I think you need to look up the meaning of fantastic.
Thank you Larry David, for giving us two of the best shows on television, a true genius. Seinfeld and Curb will be on tv as long as there will be tv
👍Modern Family is great , as well.
@@barbarachieppo9603 but he was not involved in that show. And the humor is not the same
@@barbarachieppo9603 what a completely strange & irrelevant comment lmao
I think you’re right. I’m writing this post in 2022 and in 2092 they’ll still be talking about those two shows.
I completely agree
"Not part of the bald community" 🤣🤣🤣 Larry spits out gems like this so casually, genius!
it's a line from Curb Your enthusiasm
Larry, (to Paul Schaffer) "You're covering up your baldness"
He's done that joke so many times it's kind of lame
@@JorisWitteman it's classic
@@JorisWitteman You're kinda lame, how about that?
Every time Larry tells a story about his life I find myself thinking “oh yeah I remember that!”
Haha that was funny!
It’s crazy that someone can be so charmingly unlikeable. The way everyone laughed when Dave asked if he was a good date is a walking example of it
But the reality is that Larry David is actually, in many ways, very likeable. That's the reality behind his success.
@@thefrontpage yeah, sorry but someone with hundreds of millions of dollars is not likeable in any way.
@@Gameboy-Unboxings What on earth? What a weird comment. There's thousands of great---and universally loved--people worth millions of dollars, of course. And, yes, factually, as I said, Larry David is loved by many people. Please keep your comment posts intelligent.
@@Gameboy-Unboxings what an odd comment, what does his net worth have to do with anything? they were taking about his character.
@@MrGuso101 communists hate the rich
“I pay..” 😂😅🤣
Pure comedy gold. 😅
I love how LD’s impersonation of the real Steinbrenner is just his Seinfeld Steinbrenner voice
When you see this, it's obvious that Larry David is the reason why Seinfeld is the funniest sitcom ever!
no, bullsh*t. He's responsible for maybe 25% of the show at most. Over the years, they had a lot of talented writers on staff that came up with a lot of those episodes besides LD. The one person most responsible for making it so funny is Jerry Seinfeld, who not only acted, but also wrote and directed many episodes. It was Jerry who was extremely successful at most everything he attempted that threw a lifeline to Larry David, who had failed at everything he attempted in life to help him with the new "Seinfeld" show. Yes, LD was very important in the success of the show, but he paled in comparison the Seinfeld.
@@dwaynecoy1871 Might want to check your sources. He didn't direct an episode at all.
I honestly think curb us funnier myself
The way he turns and addresses the audience just as if they were a person. Speaking in a natural tone. He's pretty much the only talk show guest who would do that, yet it makes perfect sense.
Yes... nice.. and Robin williams.. xo
Larry as the "man in the cape" was hilarious too. So randomly strange and inspiring at the same time.
Larry David is single handedly responsible for my sense of humor
He's so effortlessly funny and charismatic.
I love that whenever I see a Larry David thumbnail, I can't tell if it was from 20 years ago or 2 months ago.
Larry David had me in the palm of his hands the entire time 😂
Gross
The whole guy is a walking, talking Seinfeld moment.
Larry David is the Real Life George Costanza. And got his dream job just like George in the series working for the Yankees. If only life could be so easy and nice.
It definitely wasn't easy, half of George's misery was Larry's life.
George gets fired from the Yankees.
@@andrewrabbage4373 George is getting upset!
@@doct0rnic George could go bummer for bummer with anyone on the planet.
@@blite13 George likes spicy chicken
"and then I gave him the ax"... perfect timing and delivery.
George did that exact same thing! He quit his job, immediately regretted it and showed up the next day to a meeting as if nothing had happened. I love that a majority of the episodes were based off of Larry's actual life! Seinfeld is the greatest sitcom of all time.
The genius of Larry David is he fools everyone by being "unlikeable", all the while being extremely considerate and excellent. His performance eternally begs the question to the audience "who else are you holding in judgement that is actually a dear friend?" Bravo!
this felt like larry david applying for a job interview infront of a crowd
Larry is one of the funniest people you will ever see.
Hail to the King of Comedy. Larry has made me spit beer across the room more than any other comedian.
This guy is impressive. Definitely Penske material.
Perhaps, but you ARE aware…
I think of that every time I c a penske moving truck
😅 Classic!
One of the most relatable personalities on earth. A true treasure.
It simply doesn’t get any better than LD. Great guest, great chemistry, and a straight up comedic genius. Any of the 11 years of Curb works all the time and makes me feel better instantly. Great upload guys.
"Don't dream, you'll fail." - Larry David
Larry David is extremely funny. The face, the smirk, his witt. Everything about him
Larry David finding fault with everyone has been my favorite
I go on a Seinfeld marathon every other week or month.
Can basically monologue every episode. Love it!!!!
I'm on one again. I'm on The Lip Reader and probably have seen this episode 20 times
@@daniellee1722 Absolute classic episode!!🙂
No wonder George is my favorite character, Larry David’s awesome
He is a really funny and pleasant man. Now I understand why his show was so successful because it is really enjoyable to see him talk not to mention seeing his writing abilities at their best in Seinfeld.
I love the best he can come up with is "...I pay?"
First time on the show and theyre a well oiled machine. David sets'em up and Larry knocks'em outta the park! Gold!
Classic Larry. Always leave on a high note.
“That’s it for me! I’m out!”
Three different Seinfeld inspirations in this interview! Incredible
This whole interview is just amazing, remember seeing it live back then.
Were you in the studio audience? That was the only way to see it live as the show was taped in the afternoon.
no you didnt
Guess he means watching it live as on TV at the time
@@chad017 I was there. I made the cup of coffee on the table.
Larry is a great example of how important a good voice is in Hollywood.
I've been binge watching Seinfeld for at least 2 months now and to find out that LD is the voice of Mr. Steinburner thru this interview brings me so much joy! Not to mention, THAT much more respect for his genius behind his writing of the show
He was also the voice of “farful”.
"Big Stein needs a calzone!"
He also has an amazing cameo with Mr Costanza.
Don’t forget he is the newspaper stand guy who tells George he doesn’t accept a 20 with writing on it. On the airplane he yells to Elaine he is eating her meal. Also he is the space guy.
What a great interview. Letterman was killing himself laughing.
Thats attempted murder
Larry’s a national treasure
I remember watching Larry David and Michael Richards on the late night comedy show Friday's from 1980-82.
The constant cheesy grin and last line “I’ll pay” all expertly delivered. That’s old school wholesome comedy.
Funniest thing about this interview is that you can see on Paul's face that he was actually offended that Larry said "he's not part of the bald community"
He wrote “Its Raining Men.”
@@justincoleman3805 lol I didn't know that
I wish someone could find the show where Andrea Martin was on and she absolutely rips Schaffer apart. You could see Paul just boiling. And I'm pretty sure Andrea Martin was never on the show again. It was a classic beat down on how Schaffer was actually nerdy and not the hipster he tried to portray. Martin had known him many years earlier in Canada. Damn, I'd love to see that again.
Larry is truly ageless.
Curb your enthusiasm was so good this year! It gets better and better every year !
The way Larry is acting/always looks likes hes laughing or about to, id swear every line from curb was improv.
Damn. First time i'm watching an interview of Larry David. Best interview ever!
Love this guy!
LD just loooooved quoting Steinbrenner saying he is a "big boy". Look at the grin on his face!
Larry David OWNS every interview! Hahaha! He’s so funny!
He is such a good spot.. other people are cringy.. he just nailed it front to back
Larry is funny without even trying. That's what I like about him.
Two of the all time TV comedy geniuses right there.
Larry and who else? Paul?
@@jamesm.3967 Haha....yep,I only see one and it's certainly not Letterman
2?
Larry and David? :p
this'll be a fun binge. thanks, dave
I never heard that story about Steinbrenner being cut. That is just hilarious.
Larry David can tell somebody he doesn't like them and they still find him funny.
Two of the funniest men ever - with very different styles. ..This interview was, "Gold Dave. Gold."
Roundtine...
I've been workin' out. I'm huge!
The more you watch Larry on Curb or anywhere else, the more you realize that the creative genius of Seinfeld was Larry David.
And here's David at the height of his powers playing the putz. A legend.
"He is not part of the bald community".
"wow"
Absolutely killed me lmao
I knew Larry was funny. But here he also comes off as a likable guy. Who would've known!
One of my favorite interviews ever.
These interviews are gold!
LOVE these two together!! 😂😍😂
Larry David is funnier than Hell and a little chunk of Heaven at the same time.
I wish they would put the original air dates somewhere in the description.
They did for some of them, maybe it’s being done after the fact 🤞
It's in the description.
It's there. 9/5/07
I like how we’ve probably heard most of these stories and responses by now but his delivery is just that good
Class acts and understatement, man's a legend,has grown into quite the performer. Great wit.
This IS like a real-life Seinfeld episode, lol
Larry David is such an odd creature. And yet pretty (pretty^^) much anyone of us recognizes dome parts of him (or his alter ego George) in ourselves. And I think that's what makes it such a guilty pleasure laughing at his shenanigans
Jason played Larry so well.
The greatest show in television: Curb Your Enthusiasm. 2nd: Seinfeld. Thank you Larry for all the belly laughs and comedy. ❤
Larry killed!!! Every second was gold!! So many actors are a let down when they go on shows. This guy is the real deal on or off screen. And he wasn’t trying out material like many comedians do.
Having Letterman and David together is crazy. Two comedic giants.
“I pay” … best answer hahahaha
Wow, this is a great interview. Kudos to Letterman for getting George Steinbrenner on!
How it all came around and tied itself together in the end at like 7:10 was perfect. Beginning, middle, end. He’s awesome
Larry David is true . He’s hilarious curb your enthusiasm omg love you Larry we need more people like u and looking pretty pretty pretty good
"I pay"
Has anyone ever understood the dynamics of dating better than this man?
Jason Alexander managed to capture his character so well. You could almost imagine it was George being interviewed.
After watching the interview I felt larry was the real life george😂
that was freakin hilarious. one of the funniest segments I have seen on Letterman.
Love Larry David.
Larry David is the best.
I was watching The interviews in Netflix and I tought, It would be nice that people like Letterman could live for 200 years
The funniest people around are always funny, naturally. They don't have to try. LD is one of those. I just have this constant smirk when he talks.
"i pay" so much genius there.
My favourite and most relatable characters❤
A true comedy genius
Only larry david can spend one minute talking about baldness and make it funny
That was on the edge! Very entertaining! What great dynamics!
Thank you, thank you, thank you Larry David for bringing so much laughter into my life.
