10 Pretty Pretty Pretty Good Curb Your Enthusiasm Guest Stars
10. The 'Seinfeld' Cast
They are like the chicken and the egg: Larry David and the most successful sitcom to date, Seinfeld, which he co-created and produced. Without him, the show wouldn’t exist and without the show, he would be a nobody.
Therefore, it seemed only fitting that the cast (Jerry Seinfeld, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Michael Richards and Jason Alexander) would make a guest appearance on David’s more recent show, Curb.
Initially, Larry (the character) is against doing a Seinfeld reunion episode in Season 7, but following the separation with his wife, Cheryl, a lightbulb goes off in his head.
If he finds a way to incorporate her into the episode as an actress, whilst seeing him in his element, writing and directing the episode etc, she will re-fall in love with him (obviously). Sadly, a series of unfortunate events leads this episode down a rather peculiar avenue…
From a suspected affair between Cheryl and Jason Alexander to Michael Richard’s fear of a deadly disease diagnosis and a stand-off between Larry and Julia Louis-Dreyfus, the whole thing is classic Seinfeld show-about-nothing stuff.
Yet it comes with a touch of the adult, extreme, and often dark humour Curb tends to practise. It leaves you wondering which of the two shows you’re actually watching…
