“Curb Your Enthusiasm” may be gone, but the series—and the unique spirit of its creator and star, Larry David—are far from forgotten.
Curb Your Enthusiasm: Boss
“Larry’s not done being annoyed by his fellow man,” jokes Jeff Schaffer, executive producer and director of the groundbreaking comedy that ended its 12th season in April. “Larry, he said the other day, ‘What are we going to do with all these ideas? Because until we can walk out of our house and not be annoyed by our fellow man, we have a job to do.’”
The duo — whose collaborative efforts date back to the “Seinfeld” years, when Schaffer wrote several seasons and served as executive producer during the ninth season — have offices right next door to each other and still exchange ideas on a daily basis.
"He comes in, he complains about something, I complain about something…" Schaffer tells Variety, riffing on the common theme of nearly every "Curb" episode. "The show may have left you all, but Larry hasn't left me. I still get a really good, valuable dose."
