I love this show, and can see why Ricky Gervais looks up to Larry David.
I'm always rooting for Larry the character, he's a great guy (not a Fawlty/Patridge/Brent grotesque) who always brings up valid points, but kind of screws up most of the time.
Does anyone know if (the late) Anne Bancroft's cameo, was her last ever acting role?
Larry David the writer also brilliantly exposes the many absurdities and hypocrisies of modern American values, friendships, etiquette, sensibilities, consumerism, insincere customer service etc etc, and how, against that backdrop, their ridiculous political correctness just doesn't wash!
