Larry David on Showing Up at Jimmy Kimmel’s House on the Wrong Day, His Best Friend & Return of Curb
Larry talks about people being constantly disappointed in him, “slouching” being frowned upon, Jimmy inviting Larry to dinner and the funny text exchange that ensued, missing doctor appointments, thinking he’s terrible at stand-up, his friendship with Richard Lewis, shooting the entire upcoming season of “Curb Your Enthusiasm” during COVID, going to NY Fashion Week, and since he complained that there weren’t any photos of him up in our studio last time he was here, we surprised him when he got here tonight.

There was literally an episode of Curb where Larry shows up to a dinner party on the wrong night on purpose to get out of going. And he did it to Jimmy in real life.
I was thinking the same thing, intentional
Came here to say Jimmy got played! You can tell he doesn't watch Curb and Larry was waiting for him to pick up on it.
Yep, but it only works if you turn up on a day after the invitation date, not before. Larry should have curbed his enthusiasm!
Exactly what every Curb fan thought 😂
He knows it can backfire if he shows up after the party, so he showed up before it. Genius
This guy has not broken his character in like 20 years.
He literally had an episode of showing up the wrong day on purpose so he doesn’t have to go 😂😂😂
He's just making up his "reality" as he goes, but not at all in a New Agey way. :) Not many people can combine their whole lives and their work in such an apparently seamless way.
Say what???
He is just being himself so there is nothing to break.
😂😂😂😂😂🙏Wich character?He's the same in Curb, like in real life😆😆😆😆😆👍SERENITY NOW!☝😂🙏
This guy has never acted a day in his life, he is just ....him!
One might say it’s acting without acting
You haven't seen 4x10 "Opening night", then :D
Haha I like the Jason Alexander reference there
Turns out this Larry David guy.....is quite the character....
Acting is to never act
This man is responsible for creating the two best sitcoms in the history of television.
I doubt it’s going to happen in my lifetime again👌🏽he is brilliant
Let us not forget shows like Bilko and Car 54 Where Are You. And at the time, the Mary Tyler Moore show was on fire.
The Dre Carey Show and Scrubs?
@@Will-ge7ri 🤮
@@TMoore-sy7ht he is a friends fan I guess which is double 🤢 🤮
Hold on hold on... the showing up at someone's house on the wrong day was LITERALLY an episode of Curb... He used that tactic to get out of going to the actual event on the day of.
Sn and ep please
@@DannyCosmos Season 6 Episode 1 "Meet The Blacks"
@@thegruesometwosome2831 thanks bro going on HBO max right now
and it totally backfired
That's exactly what I was thinking. Since the original planned didn't worked. He went with different plan, "show up prior to the event" LOLOL.
His honesty is what make him so funny.
yesssssssssssssssssss
I would say that hes prosona is what makes him funny. It's acting, very common for selebs to do this to separate normal life and fame life.
It seemed weirdly forced to me.
Brutally honesty!
@@oriolopocholo Right. I realized he’s doing stand-up & was telling some of his jokes, as all stand-up comedians do on talk shows.
Says he can’t do stand up, essentially does it for 15 minutes and kills 😂
He earns more money writing tv and creating comedy.
Hes not lacking the ability, just the will
Discovering Larry David and Curb is the best thing that ever happened to me.
Oh I feel that
Uhh, are we ignoring that the "wrong night" strategy was an entire Curb episode? 😄 Can't fool me, Lar!
Wow, you're totally right?! Surprised Jimmy didn't pick up on that lmao!!!
I was thinking the same thing
Lmao just commented the exact same thing.
Well yeah basically, but in Curb, Larry shows up the night AFTER the party, not a week before
The jacket story is also similar to the episode where Ted Danson compliments Larry's sweater, so he buys him one for his birthday and it has a hole in it.
Larry is the kind of guy that people want to be, but they are too sacred of reactions.
Sacred? It's ok M'i dyslectic too
@@cunobelinusX31 you missed at least one comma in your reply, if we're being grammar trolls.
It’s the fact that he’s an old jew. Everything slides off him😂
@Tom B bro what😂😂😂
i am slowly turning into him as i get older hahah (29)
RIP Richard Lewis
He finally answered Larry’s question 😂
@@bdoubleu6 What a good friend.. A BEST friend even.
Watching in 2024 RIP Richard Lewis
His grave stone says I’m dead now Larry 😂
@@bdoubleu6😂😂😂😂
Larry is my idol. I have dreams of being a hilarious older man who simply hates people to the point that we can all laugh about it. Grumpy is out. Insightfully critical is in.
I'm closer to realizing that dream than you brother and it's wonderful.
Insightfully critical!
I am like larry now and I am a middle aged woman. Just be. Let your inner larry come out.
Good thing that he's irreplaceable. Dream all you want =)
It helps that he’s rich. A poor guy doing it ? less appealing
*Legend!* His writing ability on Seinfeld to have so many different situations going on for each character then having it all come back together and tie-in at the end in less than 30 minutes of a show is truly remarkable.
Watch Curb
Was that every episode? I've never seen an episode
I never got; the show Seinfeld I just hate the actors. No really I don't like Jerry Seinfeld.. he's too much innocent. Too much like GregBrady. And I keep confusing Seinfeld for friends which I really hate!
I wasn't a fan of him anyway, but after his response to Larry King asking a genuine question, he seems like a bit of a prick
A slouch on the couch… I like the sound of that 😊
Larry is the most naturally funny dude ever!
maybe not ever, but maybe the most naturally funny one alive ever since a month ago
One of the
You don't know that. There's plenty of funny people who are not even famous.
This guy follows proto
I think that might really be true....
this guy is a comedic genius
Larry David is the Albert Einstein of situational comedy.
You think?
Yes!!!!
Duh
he's so dry.... and Jimmy is so stoned... great combo.
The “slouching” reminds me of a conversation I would hear on Seinfeld lmfao
Exactly what I thought, I even expected Jimmy to say something witty like George or Elaine
My grandfather was a sloucher, my father was a sloucher…I was born to slouch!
💯%
It’s a total Seinfeld bit. ;)
Well that just wouldn't make sense.
I once saw Larry David at a very unexpected place... I was walking out of an underground drag show in a hotel lobby as he was walking in. I know it was him because I said "hey!" and he immediately said "No." with his hand up hahaha
stop is that real XDDD
Hahaha seriously??
RIP Richard. Still can’t believe he is gone.
This felt like an episode of Curb ❤
When your level of self honesty is that high life is always entertaining....
his life is an episode of curb..
It all started with the digression on slouching. Always lead with slouching.
Because it was 😂 going to the Funkouser party a day late.
Every LD interview feels like an episode of curb your enthusiasm. Nothing is loosely based on his life, Larry David is Larry David is the same person on and off camera lol
That's one of the reasons Curb is so funny - cause we all know that Larry in Curb and Larry in real life are the SAME GUY.
@@emanuelmota7217 facts!!!
and a LOT like George except the weight.
Watching this, it feels like he's acting... but not acting at the same time...
I'm slouching right now watching this, Larry is a man of the people.
His late night interviews/appearances are like bonus episodes of Curb. Just fantastic..
I hate people individually, but I love mankind - Larry David
That’s funny. I’m the exact opposite.
I rewatched Curb this year and man some of those episodes esp in the first few seasons made me laugh when nothing else could. I'm stoked to see him doing well and can't wait for the new season! It should be "pretty pretty good."
the bowtie is my favorite episode of all tv series. He managed to joke about racism, lesbianism, friendship, disability, religion all in one episode.
Seinfeld
I find myself starting from season 3 every couple of year
Beloved Aunt.
Curb is by far the most consistently 'laugh out loud' funny show on TV.
I absolutely love Larry David… And he never ever ever ever disappoints 😊❤
Larry David is obsessed with jackets. So many Seinfeld and Curb episodes involving clothes but mostly JACKETS. ha ha. Love ya Larry. Thanks for the laughs.
Jackets and Watches
His father made men's clothing, he said before that he grew up aware of clothing. The first lines in Seinfeld are about the button on a shirt and one of the last is about it on their prison jumpsuits.
@@Emmareads15 I did not know that. That is weird wild stuff.
With a crest
I actually catch myself smiling while Larry David speaks, it's so great
It that supposed to be news? The man's VERY funny.
Still cracks me up that Larry David doesn’t act on curb your enthusiasm. That’s just him
Yeah… I was thinking the same thing.
But I have heard Julia LD say that he is much much kinder in real life✨
@@marthatodd1 my friend has had dinner with him a few times and says the same thing. He acts the same in real life but is nicer than he is in Curb.
He's a decent actors
“Long Ball” Larry - never misses
*“Wherever I am is wrong.”* That hits home so hard.
Aspies represent!
The king of self -deprecation. Love his brutal honesty and humor.
That best friend part really blew Larry's mind.... yeah Jimmy you're right, I should've thought that.... lol
I can imagine that realization would sit with Larry and then write it in a Curb episode.
I keep hoping for the "Larry David" collection at JC Penny but alas it has yet to materialize. The man is a fashion icon.
all you need to do is wear three shirts....
Larry’s just organically funny. I’m native NYer who absolutely loves his humor.
Larry is so damn funny. He did stand up while being interviewed about a show he made.
I swear I love Larry. I hope he lives till 140
It's 120...
Honestly, that was the most I've seen Jimmy enjoying himself with a guest and he is absolutely right. I want to record every moment of Larry into my brain. Oh man, that was really a lot of fun, I think I'm gonna watch it a couple of times more. As a fellow misanthrope and a sloucher, I love you Larry, even if you wouldn't want me to:)
A real comedian not a hack like him?
That but about Larry walking off stage is legendary, you hear comedians talk about it when talking to other comedians on podcasts.
jimmy's aheh heh heh heh heh gets to be a bit grating and just a mite creepy
And Don rickles
Watch curb enthusiasm . It’s his show and it’s all improv just like this. He’s hilarious
I literally JUST watched the episode where Larry goes to funkman’s house a day late and acts surprised he missed the party!
What season
Oh that’s so funny.
same
Same. I watched it 2 days ago lol
Same
If all rich guys in retired age acted like Larry, having fun and doing what they like, instead of making only money until they died, the world would be a better place. Long live Larry David!
That’s true
Problem is, they just like making money.
Problem is, maybe they get by paycheck-to-paycheck & can’t think about retiring
and ironically he got rich doing it.
I just think, wow is this ageism? So I say to you “just keep living kid!”😮
Larry cracks me up so bad, that bit with him and Richard Lewis had me in tears. They are so funny together
Larry is finally as old as he's always seemed.
Love the genuine laugh coming from jimmy at 9:06 😂 Larry David is a gem
Can't wait for the new season it's such a good show😂
This is like a preview of the next season lol.
You can tell Jimmy just loved Larry and legit finds him hilarious
Larry can’t handle the fact we all love him and send him positive love. It’s hilarious 😂
LD is so genuine that you can't distinguish him and his character from CYE... Love so much
I love how he challenge Jimmy and how Jimmy took it and gave it back.
Larry David is a Human Bobblehead 😂 and the funniest dude on the planet.
I think we all want to be Larry David; give effortlessly hilarious interviews, never leave the house or interact with people and be the mastermind behind two of the funniest shows in television history. Living the no filter dream!
Its been a while since I cried from laughing. When Larry looked at Lewis and said "When are you gunna die?" I completely lost it. Curb is the only show that makes me lose my breath from laughing. I have to take 5 minute pauses. My g/f hates it. Lmfao
I've been watching clips/bloopers from the show for years on YT. Lots of laughing and losing breath lol 😆 🤣 I love him and that show!
lol your g/f hates the show or hates you taking 5 minute pauses during it?
@@emikiwi the pausing. I have to pause for laugh breaks and im also a habitual rewinder. Larry could make an episode about me. Don't be a habitual rewinder.
@Nicholas Kamande it hasn't aired yet. It was a clip from the new season. Season 11 is airing now and they're on episode 6. Season's typically run 10 episodes and that specific one has yet to release.
Larry David is so funny, hes the funniest comedian and I loved how he made cameos in Seinfeld
Fun Quiz : Describe the cameos/characters he played when he appeared in Seinfeld? Im a Seinfeld/Curb/LD nut. This is for fun…and I’ll give a hint if needed :-D
@@ericcleve4447 Merchant behind window when George is in King outfit, Steinbrenner, Yelling at Kramer’s mom when walking down the street, Subway announcer when Elaine and Kramer take the train with the TV Guide, Frankenstein horror movie character, and probably countless more
@@ericcleve4447 the original Newman
@@ericcleve4447 Frank Costanza’s lawyer aka the man in the Cape
@@marshorner1573 well done sir 👏🏻. You even nailed all the voice overs. Only one I think you missed was when he played Frank Costanza’s lawyer. Who for some odd, yet hysterical reason, wore a cape.
Love all the photos of Larry in the hall! So funny!
Larry could sit and talk about whatever and I would wanna watch every minute.
This guy cracks me up ! His comedy is authentic!
Larry is one of the coolest dudes! having a show where he basically plays himself is just next level
Jimmy is the perfect talk show host for Larry, they just vibe.
SUPER fan Of curb your enthusiasm. The most amazing decision was maintaining the characters- Leon Black, Susie and Jeff Green, and Richard Lewis, and Marty Funkhouser. Larry David is a true gift!
❤Larry David!❤
“When are you going to die?” Might be the funniest line in all of Curb. 😅
I LOL'ed!
you could also see Richard about to smile; they're hilarious
Can’t wait to see that episode 😂
Larry looks healthier as an old man than he did as a young man
It’s called money!
@@cody7889 a thought it was just called it, why would it be called money, who names a clown money, a scary clown at that
He looked kind of oddly old when he was young. He got older and started looking old in a different way, but had already been looking old in a way for a while. He started to go bald young, probably part of it. And maybe the glasses added to it.
I guess he was always decrepit then
4:55 anyone else expecting him to describe the doctors as delicate geniuses?
Larry David and Richard Lewis are gems, have wings already, and a treasure to humanity. I'm also a slouch, and Jimmy's family is hot. Love you guys ! 📝🧚🧚🏾🧚🏼♀️
lmao that new Curb clip of Larry and Richard Lewis "When are you going to die?"
Don't think I've seen Jimmy enjoy himself more during an interview.
Watching this after Richard Lewis has passed. May he rest in peace. There will never be another duo like Lewis and David🙏
Jimmy handled this interview really well. I get the feeling Larry isn't the easiest to interview lol
Yeah… i was thinking the same thing while watching them
For sure
Seem easy to me just have fun and don't so serious
i'm more a fan of o brian, but gotta say kimmel did a good job on this one
When you watch a comedy show, you might think to yourself "that was funny." When you watch Larry David you can't contain yourself, he is so amazingly funny! One of a kind.
“ My presence isn’t needed anywhere “ 👏🏼
Bernie’s looking happier in retirement, who knew he was so funny.
He's SO right about doctors' self-importance.
That whole slouching bit sounded like it came straight out of a Seinfeld episode
😂🤣🙏
More like curb
Except it was funnier.
@@lapchurng nah I'm binging Seinfeld right now and it sounded exactly like that, the only difference is Jimmy's response wasn't funny
@@AlexisGolnas I think Jimmy ruined it, on the show Jerry would've said what Larry said then George or Elaine would've made it even funnier
Im a sloucher,nothing wrong with a comfortable slouch🙂
Love LD! Man is a genius
True and Kimmel is the inverse of a genius.
Larry is the guy Louie stole ideas from
@Tom B No that’s Carlos Mencia
Is that a hole that Larry has in his sock ? 🙄
A slouch on the couch… I love it.😊
Larry's an American Treasure.
“i wanted to cancel” hahaha .. at least he seems to enjoy his own charity golf sessions i love his laugh so contagious .. and i like a good sloucher! 😂no frowning😂
He's so refreshingly honest... :D
10:20 the scenes he does with Richard are the best
The way he sits up with such genuine interest. He has the ability to make Jimmy laugh without even trying. 😅 priceless😂
Damn, I really like Kimmel’s genuine laughter here. Stoked for new Curb!
He's so honest with his comedy/writing ..it's his life experiences
We need a sit-down between Larry and Fran Lebowitz - "The Kvetching Heard Around The World"
So good Jimmy Larry is a national treasure ❤
Just finished watching all 100 episodes of curb in 3 months. I am up-to-date 🤙🏽
Same
Larry David has been 65 all his life lol
Larry is my spirit animal!!
This genius turns a bit from slouching. So simple yet so entertaining. I'd pay a million to golf with him. You could get him riled up about anything and listen to the magic. So great. Still think of his Steinbrenner voice from Seinfeld. Gold.
Big Stein loves his calzones
Jimmy held his own. I’d like to be a fly on the wall at that Monday dinner. 😂🤣
A Jay Leno fly??
I’m watching the whole show from the start it never gets boring
Do not eat the licorice or Pasta Primavera (Damn Elaine)
It’s like Jimmy isn’t even aware there is an audience. He is clearly just happy to listen to Larry David and cherish the exchange. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😊❤️
Couldn’t wait to check out this interview. David doesn’t disappoint. I also started re-watching Curb. He makes me laugh until I cry. Nothing better than that…especially these days…
I swear he was going to go into the delicate genius line - lol
Love Larry David!!!!!
"When are you gonna die?" I'm dead larry you just killed me
Reminds me of Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart's friendship, and when Ian casually told Patrick in the middle of a Graham Norton show, "It's time you died" 🤣
My first memories of seeing Larry are from when he was on the short-lived tv show, "Fridays" back in the day...loved that show! I'm so glad he's still out there sharing his comedic genius mind with the world! 🧡
Larry is a gem. So glad Curb is back!
i know a guy who was late for everything. friends invite him for dinner, so he decides he's really, really going to be on time. the day comes and he shows up, on time, knocks on the door, his friends answer surprised to see him, and it turns out that, yes, he was on time but a week late.
2022 and I am just now realizing the genius of Larry David
A decade wasted
Binge watching.They go so fast for the fans.Thank you and all you’re cast members for all the hard work.Good times.Wish the Sean’s were endless.Never be another Larry David.God Bless.
