Stuntman Mike posted:When all's said and done, the show is great... but man, is Jerry ever a real douchebag. Eh, he's got a right to be annoyed. Larry King was proud of the fact that he'd do absolutely no prep work for any interviews, and it shows. Seinfeld also was ripping Lady Gaga recently, and I thought he might be acting like a d-bag, but he had a point there too. Somebody gave Gaga Jerry's box without his permission, and she was flipping off cameras and acting like an idiot.

Here's the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZfUgVSfKdQ I'd think that Seinfeld was just having fun with him.

Yeah, I really don't think he was seriously that mad, he was smiling throughout the whole thing. I also get the impression that he's known Larry King for a long time but that's just a hunch.

Fair enough, but I have heard that the guy's a jerk in real life. Maybe for him it comes with the territory of being extremely rich.

Probably a combination of being filthy rich and his standup background. Noone hates their audience as much as standup comedians.

I don't know how accurate a representation it is of their real life, but Curb Your Enthusiasm taught me that Larry and Jerry working in conjunction are the worst human beings on the planet. It's wonderful, Jerry just goads Larry on and brings out the (best) worst in him.

Do you have any examples? I'm sure everyone has heard that some random celebrity is a jerk. I'm not saying you're wrong, unless you just heard it from a friend.

I'm pretty sure that the show is so funny because its essentially an example of complete worst case scenarios in human interaction. Its just everything going completely wrong in a way that straddles the line between realistic and outrageous.

The guy could be a serial killer of small children and I'd still watch the hell out of him and Larry David together talking about regular poo poo. It's like a miracle of nature watching those two guys interact.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:if anyone should know what's going on, it's King. King likes to trot out that he doesnt prepare at all for interviews, and his ignorance creates some pretty fantastic moments with various guests. How he got to be "the" name for important political guests, especially in his later years, is just baffling. He has a very long and distinguished career of loving up.

Happy Birthday to Larry David. Being that today is his birthday, I can't help but think David wrote this for 'The Fire' shortly after having had one: Jerry posted:To me, the thing about birthday parties is that the first birthday party you have and the last birthday party you have are actually quite similar. You know, you just kinda sit there... you're the least excited person at the party. You don't even really realize that there is a party. You don't know what's goin' on. Both birthday parties, people have to kinda help you blow out the candles, you can't do it... you don't even know why you're doing it. What is this ritual? What is going on? It's also the only two birthday parties where other people have to gather your friends together for you. Sometimes they're not even your friends. They make the judgement. They bring 'em in, they sit 'em down, and they tell you - 'these are your friends! Tell them thank you for coming to my birthday party. I can just see him sitting there with the surliest look on his face while all these people he doesn't remotely like celebrate and drink and eat his cake.

My favorite Kramer scheme is probably one of if not his first: the levels. I love the part where they bet. Kramer: A big dinner with dessert. But I've got till the end of the month. Jerry: I'll give you a year. Kramer: No, no, no. End of the month. Jerry: It's a bet. (Jerry rolls his eyes as Kramer extends his pinky for a pinky swear.)

What episode is it where Jerry and Elaine are having dinner at someone's house and Elaine is telling Jerry about a dream she had about him ("It was you, but it wasn't you...") as he gives his condescending nod? Think he is at the party to hook up with some chick there.

Iron Crowned posted:That interview does remind me that he did it right. You go out while you're still on top so that you're not remembered like The Simpsons. After the phrase "Go out on top" was bandied about in every media mention of the series ending in '97, they even gave George that entire storyline in "The Burning" where he wants to "Go out on top" in every situation he's in, which eventually just leads to him walking out of his office every time he gets somebody to laugh. Still a great bit of meta humor. George: I knew I had hit my high note, so I thanked the crowd, and I was gone. Jerry: What did you do the rest of the day? George: I saw Titanic. So, that old woman...she's just a liar, right? Jerry: And a bit of a tramp, if you ask me.
