It’s days like this when the universe proves it has a sense of timing: within 24 hours, not only did Don Imus debut a TV show in the aftermath of a racial scandal, but Michael Richards returned to TV in the aftermath of his racial scandal. (If you’re David Letterman, by the way, are these comebacks a reminder of how mighty entertainers can fall or proof that the public has a short memory?)
In any case, Curb Your Enthusiasm’s show-within-a-show reunion of Seinfeld began last night, and I was impressed with how natural—and how Seinfeldian—the players all were with each other immediately. (With, of course, the additional element of Larry David on screen.)
