Video previews for episode 1. “Funkhouser’s Crazy Sister”, airing 20th September:

Larry recently unveiled the context behind the Seinfeld reunion that forms the story arc for the seventh season of Curb:

“The context is for years I’ve been asked about a ‘Seinfeld’ reunion — as has Jerry and the other cast members. I would say, ‘No, there’s no reunion, we would never do that, it’s a lame idea’ … but it might be really funny to do that on ‘Curb’ … and I kept thinking of how we could pull this off, and Jerry was game … so we’re doing a ‘Seinfeld’ reunion show.”

On returning to a Seinfeld “state of mind” Larry said “it was surprisingly smooth”, likening it to “getting on a bicycle”. He also hinted at a possible hour long season finale but wouldn’t give up whether or not fictional Larry would end up ruining the fictional reunion. That does sound like something his character would do and as Larry recently told ABCNews, “I don’t evolve. I don’t believe in character evolution.” What can we expect to actually see? Larry explains in this short video:

As for a possible season 8? Susie has assured us that real Larry hasn’t changed either:

“The most difficult part of doing the show is after every season we never know if Larry’s going to want to do another season or not. I don’t know if we’re doing a season eight, it’s all up to Larry. When he finishes a season, he feels like it’s exhausting and like he has no new ideas … but he always snaps out of it, so I’m hoping we’ll be back.”

HBO have been running several promos for the upcoming season. Thank God for YouTube, here they are (thank you to those who emailed and posted the links):

Apologies but I can’t embed the first YouTube video so just click through to view.

Update: The Youtube video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by NBC Universal.  I have added the official NBC video to this page but it may only work for those in North America. Apologies, my hands are tied.

Larry talks to Conan on June 16 about his role in the upcoming Woody Allen film Whatever Works.  He also discusses his divorce, dental hygiene and orgasm regret.

Not as good as his Letterman interview but enjoyable nonetheless.

For one reason oranother I can’t seem to embed the second video so click here to view it.

Something Google alerted me to and was just too funny not to post. Credit to Pike-Pat movies. This really gets me excited for a seventh season.
