I'm so ashamed of myself. I knew I had seen that doctor somewhere else, but couldn't place him.

Quote: Don't let it happen again...... No, that's just a joke. Alot of people connected with Seinfeld work on CYE and they have hired alot of the guest actors from Seinfeld for CYE episodes. Case in point - when Ed Asner played the father of Larry's co-writer from SNL and the friend, who was down on his luck, stood alot to inherit from the father if the father died, and then somehow Larry is involved with the death and Larry and Cheryl show up at the house to pay their shiva respects, the guy's brother or cousin, I don't remember which, is played by the "double dip" kid. Everyone at the shiva was pissed off at Larry because they think that he contributed to the death. For the kid, it was the same exact role that he played in Seinfeld as the "double dip" kid, and he even used the same angry facial expressions. But it was such a treat to see Bookman. He's done so many things, but he'll always be Bookman. |

Dunno if this has been mentioned...
I was just listening to one of the radio morning programs here, and they said that Jerry Seinfeld was set to make a guest appearance on CYE. |

Quote: It was referenced as part of the press junket for the new season of CYE. It will be a short, non-speaking cameo that Larry David says that you shouldn't blink or you'll miss him. Apparently, it was unplanned as Jerry just showed up one day on the set and they decided to have him do a cameo. |

So, who WAS the girl that had the boob job? I must have missed something?

Re: Curb Your Enthusiam | ||
Quote: Do you mean in real life or on the show? On the show she was Richard Lewis's fake niece (close family friend who calls him "Uncle Richard") who is out in Los Angeles trying to make it as an actress and was convinced that she needed a boob job, so it was Larry's job to talk her out of it, so at the lunch, Larry out of nowhere says how Anna Nicole Smith has a huge rack. Richard told her that Larry could help her with her head shot presentation, so that was the hook to get her to lunch. It was the presentation that she brought over to Larry's and had already done the boob job. All I know is that suddenly, all I want to say is "tits." All I know is that when Little Miss P plays "telephone" with her friends, I won't be able to join in because I'll be so tempted to say "tits." Besides, it can't be an episode if Susie doesn't say "fuck you Larry you fucking asshole." That made it for me. |

Re: Curb Your Enthusiam | ||
Quote: Thanks for filling me in on the "niece", FWP. I did see Richard Lewis and Larry, but was distracted by other goings on, so I didn't catch the entire scene. I will say I thought tonight's ending was a little flat. |

Re: Curb Your Enthusiam | ||
Quote: I totally agree. I watched it again this morning while getting ready for work because I couldn't remember the exact sequence of the telephone game and the exact phrase that the kid blurted out. Having a 7 year old kid blurt out "I like tits." Priceless. I think, though, you are absolutely correct AP as to the ending. You knew that Ben hated the sweatshirt before Larry even gave it to him, and that it would end up with the piano player, and when you saw Larry at the club, you knew that Jeff was going to be there with Susie. Like I said earlier, the only redeeming point of the ending was Susie mouthing "fuck you Larry you fucking asshole" to Larry. And I did love the fact that Larry bored the co-star to tears with his rambling - the co-star that he wants to screw for his 10th anniversary which is the only reason he agreed to take the role. Now, today is Mrs. P's birthday and when we have the cake tonight, I'm SO tempted not to sing "Happy Birthday." Maybe we should celebrate it two weeks from now as a joke. Where the episode fell flat for me was that at parties where I have the skewer, especially those at someone's house, you go to either the bathroom or the kitchen and put it in the trash. So I'm not sure I buy that whole premise, which was critical to the plotline since he poked Ben's eye with the skewer and was the topic of "conversation" with the co-star. But, the constant emphasis on "tits" and the Susie line made it for me, so this episode gets a "B." Maybe when they shot this episode Larry had been reading the boobs threads on OT...... |

What are the chances that Larry actually gets his anniversary present? I'd have to go with "Not bloody likely" (said in my worst English accent)
Cheryl Hines is on the Ellen Show right now and she's pregnant! |

Re: Curb Your Enthusiam | ||
Quote: Totally agree....let's at least find Larry a woman other than Cheryl who doesn't find him totally offensive and a bore. At least that's the set-up that we've seen in the first two episodes. Also, as to Cheryl being pregnant, read this week's EW I think which spends a day with Cheryl on the set. She became pregnant at the end of the shooting season in the spring/summer. I'd post the link but this week's articles aren't online at ew.com yet. When they're up, I'll post the link here. |

Speaking of the eye injury, who would care about this mistake except FwP? Ben says that Larry scratched his retina -eww, and not possible without punturing the eye and causing permanent damage. More likely, he scratched his cornea, a painful but far more common and less serious injury

Quote: Aren't we in a fiesty mood this morning.....and no, I hadn't considered it because I was going with the flow of the show, but now that you think about it, yeah, you're right. Oh, to follow up on my earlier post from yesterday, I got home, got out the birthday cake, spelled out the age in candles, lit the candles, and stood there as Little Miss P started to sing "Happy Birthday" to Mrs. P. Mrs. P looks at me and says, "Are you pulling a Larry David?" to which I replied, "It's a stupid song. Maybe we should have a party with the neighbors in two weeks or something...." Fearing severe bodily harm and guaranteed hospitalization, I then commenced singing. |

Thanks Johnny. Just wondering where I'd seen her before. It must have been as Marcia Brady in the the Brady Bunch movies. Or in the Wedding Singer. Sure haven't seen anything else she's done.
