Bombshell alert! (Not really.) Jeff Garlin revealed on 'Live With Regis and Kelly' that he came up with the idea for 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' and Larry David simply ran with it, prompting Regis Philbin to loudly demand recognition for Garlin's part in creating the hit show.

"All of a sudden it became his idea," said an inflamed Philbin. "To this day, no one knows that it was your idea! 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' -- Jeff Garlin's idea!"

The Daily Show With Jon Stewart, Jeff Garlin Jeff Garlin knows he's "really screwed up," but once he accepted the fact that he's a food addict, that Oprah lightbulb went off in his head.

"I haven't had sugar in over a year," he told Jon Stewart on 'The Daily Show With Jon Stewart' (weeknights, 11PM ET on COM). "I haven't had fast food in over a year ... if you have a cookie and go, 'here just have a piece,' that's like me taking my first drink,' so I don't do it."

Good for you, Jeff! Stay the course, because you look fabulous.

TV Moment of 2009: 'Seinfeld' Reunion on 'Curb Your Enthusiasm'

Larry David -- Curb Your EnthusiasmIt wouldn't be a new season of 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' without Larry David doing something with a self-serving purpose.

After running into Cheryl and discovering that she liked things better when Larry had a job, Larry becomes enthusiastic about a 'Seinfeld' reunion, though he has a hard time convincing Jerry of his change of heart.

When the reunion gets picked up, Larry comes up with another one of his wacky schemes -- this time, to cast Cheryl as Amanda, George Costanza's ex-wife. This weaves in the running gag that barely any of that cast, especially Jason, realize: that George is based on Larry. Luckily for Larry, the scheme doesn't blow up in his face like it usually does.

Larry David set for more Curb Your Enthusiasm

by Allison Waldman, posted Jul 11th 2008 12:41PM
Larry in sneakersRemember how Curb Your Enthusiasm ended last season, with Larry posed in happy, jolly family pictures with the Blacks? Did it leave you laughing and dying to know what happens next -- or is this the end?

The answer is now known. There's more Curb Your Enthusiasm on deck, because Larry David has said yes to another HBO season.

HBO announced a seventh season of Curb. It will begin airing in early 2009, giving Larry plenty of time to write the 10 episodes planned. HBO's West Coast prez Michael Lombardo characterized Larry as "excited about it" when he presented at TCA.

That characterization is in line with comments by both Richard Lewis and Jeff Garlin, semi-regular and regular, respectively, in previous months.

And Susie Essman told the New York Post that she had auctioned off a walk-on role in season seven, so it would have been very embarrassing if she didn't know that they were all coming back.

The Daily Show: September 10, 2007

Jeff GarlinHurrah! The Daily Show is back from its two week break. Sometimes I wonder if political figures purposely plan their big announcements to occur during Daily Show hiatuses (why am I tempted to use "hiati"?). It certainly felt that way this time around.

"R. Party: Trapped in the Closet": The biggest (or, at least, the most fun) news: Larry Craig's very gay scandal. As if the initial issue wasn't damaging enough, Senator Craig is now attempting to withdraw his guilty plea. Mmm... Scandal. It's so good. When Jon turned to the correspondent in the stall, I thought, "Oh wow. That sounds like Rob Corddry. But no. No, it can't be. But then again the delivery is alarmingly un-crappy... Maybe it's just John Oliver with a weird accent" but it was Rob Corddry! This was the part where I quietly cheered to myself and got some weird looks from the people walking around me.

Jeff Garlin channels Jack Benny

by Anna Johns, posted Jan 27th 2006 9:49AM
Jeff Garlin, who plays Larry David's loyal manager on Curb Your Enthusiasm, may be getting his own comedy show on TBS. It's one of those show-within-a-show thingies where the character, "Jeff", hosts a variety show but we also watch his exploits when he's off stage. The "Jeff Garlin" character will be a talk show host much like Jack Benny.

Says Garlin, "I play Jeff Garlin, the biggest variety star on television, and pretty much the show follows me getting into trouble each week. This is the show I've wanted to do since I was little."

Phil Rosenthal, of Everybody Loves Raymond, is producing the show, along with Garlin. Production on the pilot begins in March.
