Josh Levine's Pretty, Pretty, Pretty Good: Larry David and the Making of Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm, Fully Revised and Updated (ECW Press, 2025) is fully revised and includes a full insightful episode guide to the entire "Curb Your Enthusiasm." For Larry David, success was no sure thing. A frustrated New York comic who was known to walk off the stage in disgust, David was barely making a living. At least until his friend Jerry Seinfeld asked him to create a new kind of television sitcom for NBC. The result — Seinfeld — started slowly but became a gigantic hit. But most people didn't know that the real genius behind the show was Larry David. Rich beyond his wildest dreams, David still had something to prove — and some television boundaries to push. And so he created Curb Your Enthusiasm, the improvised comedy that cast aside political correctness and made for hilarious, cringeworthy TV, a show that dared to relive the disastrous Seinfeld finale and turn it into a triumph. This second, fully updated edition of Pretty, Pretty, Pretty Good offers a complete episode-by-episode guide to the series and recounts David's early struggle to succeed in television and movies, the creation and development of his hit sitcoms, and his later success starring in the HBO film Clear History and the Broadway hit Fish in the Dark. It also explores Larry's on- and offscreen relationships with famous pals like Richard Lewis, Ted Danson, and Jerry, Jason, Julia, and Michael. Filled with candor and humor David himself would respect, Pretty, Pretty, Pretty Good is an essential companion to a comedic force. Learn more about your ad choices.

Nach fast dreieinhalb Jahren Pause beginnt "Stranger Things" (7:45) den letzten Kampf gegen das Böse. Dass die Kids mittlerweile Twens sind, ließt sich nicht verhindern, da die erste Staffel im Jahr 2016 startete, aber konnten die Duffer-Brüder die Qualität ihrer Drehbücher über die lange Pause halten? Das diskutieren Holger, Roland und Rüdiger und sind dabei sehr unterschiedlicher Meinung. Da Netflix die Serie dreigeteilt ausstrahlt, teilen wir die Diskussion auf in einen allgemeinen Teil und einen Spoiler-Teil (40:40), in dem wir diskutieren, was wir von den letzten vier Folgen erwarten, die am 26.12. und 31.12. gezeigt werden. Danach geht es um einen weiteren Netflix-Rückkehrer, der mit deutlich weniger TamTam startet und zumindest bei keinem von uns auf der Startseite auftauchte: "A Man on the Inside" (1:00:30) oder wie Netflix es in einem Anflug geistiger Umnachtung einst nannte "Undercover im Seniorenheim". Die Sitcom des "The Good Place"-Duos Mike Schur und Ted Danson sorgt dabei unter uns für mehr Dispute als eine Damenwahl in der Senioren-Residenz. Wobei sich herausstellt, dass Roland Reißaus nehmen würde, wenn ihn eine ganz bestimmte rüstige Rentnerin zum Tanz aufforden würde - selbst wenn ihm dabei eine Runde Nacktbaden durch die Lappen ginge. Da das Jahr sich wieder dem Ende entgegen neigt, suchen wir wieder für unsere Bestenliste Eure liebsten Serien des Jahres 2025. Schickt Eure Top 10 (oder auch weniger, wenn ihr nicht genug gesehen habt) mit oder ohne Begründung bis zum 26.12. an Serienweise (at) web.de oder tragt sie in den dafür vorgesehenen Post bei campfire.fm ein. Cold-Open-Frage: "Was halten wir von Apples Notbremse für ,Traqués - Gejagt'?"
Ted Danson is back undercover in Season 2 of A Man on the Inside. Charles finds himself posing as a professor at Wheeler College.

We also talk the Good Place connections, the Julie–Vanessa-Apollo storyline, and whether the finale sticks the landing. Tune in and enjoy!Welcome to Today's Episode!

Dave Weekley, Coop, and Ryan open Hotline with a long, wonderfully unhinged crosstalk that starts with snack runs in the rain and Coop's near-emergency almond shortage — and somehow spirals into ice cream in winter, geezer-cardigan fashion rules, and a full-blown debate over Wicked and Wicked: For Good. The trio riff on Hollywood weight-loss conspiracies, House of the Dragon, Ted Danson's immortality, and the universal Dad Truth of sitting in the driveway listening to the radio. A classic, freewheeling Hotline open that feels like the mics were simply switched on mid-conversation.

All the talk about Jeffrey Epstein seems to be getting to President Trump, who behaved in a disgusting way towards a female reporter on Air Force One. Perhaps he was cheered up today by welcoming Saudi Arabia's leader to the White House and giving an hour-long speech at a McDonald's convention. Emmy-winning actor and activist Ted Danson stars opposite his real-life wife Mary Steenburgen in a show that pokes fun at some of the inescapable indignities of growing older.

Michael Schur is the creative force behind some of the most beloved comedies of the past two decades: The Good Place, Parks and Rec, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, and most recently, A Man On The Inside, starring Ted Danson. If Mike's face looks familiar, it might be from his scene-stealing performance as Mose Schrute on The Office, on which Mike was also a writer. Mike's shows have a distinctive signature: they don't just make you laugh – they make you think about morality and what it means to be human. Along the way, they might just make you cry. In this episode, Mike charts the songs and milestones that turned him into the writer he is today – from the Neutral Milk Hotel album that taught him to wear his heart on his sleeve, to the fender bender that sparked an existential crisis that would become The Good Place, to the Taylor Swift song that pulled him out of a creative rut during the pandemic. It's a conversation about how art teaches us to feel, and how those feelings become the stories we tell. Here are his songs. “Weird Al” Yankovic, “Eat It” The Beatles, “A Day in the Life” Indigo Girls, “Kid Fears” Neutral Milk Hotel, “Ghost” Derek and the Dominos, “Key to the Highway” Arvo Pärt, “Spiegel im Spiegel” Taylor Swift, “gold rush”

Mike Rowe talks about not being the “dirty jobs” Mike Rowe, planning for the future, being funny in high school, becoming an electrical engineer and giving it up for comedy, performing in NY comedy clubs, Alan Zweibel moving him to LA, roasts, jokes, his book “It's a Funny Thing”, Rodney Dangerfield giving him hope, comedy cliques, and why he's moving to Connecticut. Bio: Michael Rowe is an Emmy Award-winning writer and producer who has worked on many highly regarded comedy and animated shows on television. While still a teenager, Michael began his comedy career as a stand-up comic at such notable New York City clubs as The Improv, The Comedy Cellar and Caroline's. From there, he landed a job writing jokes for SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE's Weekend Update, as well as sketches for shows on MTV, A&E and Comedy Central. Hollywood called, bringing Michael out west to work with Martin Short on his syndicated sketch-comedy show. This soon led to opportunities as a sitcom writer/producer on shows starring George Clooney, Adam Sandler, Ted Danson, and with Eddie Murphy on his groundbreaking animated series, THE PJs. Michael's affinity for the comedic heart and artistic freedom of animation led to a seven-season run as a writer and Co-Executive Producer of the highly acclaimed series, FUTURAMA. From there, Michael joined FAMILY GUY as a writer/producer and soon after, he became the showrunner for Comedy Central's animated series, BRICKLEBERRY. Along the way Michael was awarded 6 Emmy nominations (with 1 win), 2 Annie Awards (with 2 wins), and a WGA Award for his FUTURAMA episode, Game of Tones. He was also nominated for a Canadian Emmy for his work as Executive Producer and Director on Netflix's animated series, THE TRAILER PARK BOYS. In recent live-action endeavors, Michael was a Co-Executive Producer on the hit TV series, 2 BROKE GIRLS for CBS. Michael is currently in development with Supercell creating an adult animated series from their megahit game franchises CLASH OF CLANS and CLASH ROYALE. He is also in development on an animated series with the incredible David Cross, and a separate animated series with Bob Odenkirk. He is also a long-standing, frequent contributor to the ongoing Comedy Central Roasts, featuring such celebrities as James Franco, Donald Trump, Justin Bieber and Roseanne, just to name a few.
