11.18.2002 | New York Observer: Larry David is L.A.'s Moliere
A front page article in the November 18, 2002 issue of the New York Observer discusses the achievement of Curb Your Enthusiasm, saying it "speaks to the moment as Seinfeld did..." Frank DiGiacomo interviews Richard Lewis about his long friendship with David (including an attempt to introduce Larry to therapy) and says that the show's central conceit and many celebrity cameos invokes "the program Jerry Seinfeld often cited as the real Seinfeld influence... The Jack Benny Show, in which Jack Benny--named for himself as Mr. David is--found himself subjected to endless insult, often brought on by his own manifold flaws, none of which he has understanding of."
LA Weekly's Brendan Bernard calls Larry David "the Philip Roth of situation comedy." The lengthy article (published in the November 15-21, 2002 edition) goes on to call Curb "the funniest show on television" and "also, in its way, one of the most realistic... On Sunday nights, with The Sopranos on at 9 and Curb following immediately after, there are neighborhoods in the city that become so quiet it's as if the entire population has entered a witness-protection program."

In her Oct. 28, 2002 New Yorker review of "Comedian" (a new documentary about Jerry Seinfeld), Virginia Heffernan writes at length about Curb: "David weaves ingenious plots, and the program's semi-improvised scripts have given him the freedom to let perverse situations drive the comedy...

An article in the October 14, 2002 issue of Time applauds Curb Your Enthusiasm ("as daringly funny as Seinfeld at its best") for a renewed interest in improvised TV comedy.

Director Robert Weide reports, "It's like working for the CIA."
