FRIDAY HALL OF FAMERS - LARRY DAVID

Our monthly showcase of the April Fool, following the year's anniversary theme, began last week with the Joker.  This week we kick off the Friday Hall of Famers with a member of the League of Themselves who follows the pattern - that cathode curmudgeon, Larry David.

For Wikipedia:
Lawrence Gene David (born July 2, 1947) is an American comedian, writer, actor, director, and television producer. He and Jerry Seinfeld created the television series ‘Seinfeld’, of which David was the head writer and executive producer from 1989 to 1997. David has subsequently gained further recognition for the HBO series ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’, which he also created, in which he stars as a semi-fictionalized version of himself.

David's work won him a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Comedy Series in 1993. Formerly a stand-up comedian, David went into television comedy, writing and starring in ABC's Fridays, as well as writing briefly for ‘Saturday Night Live’. He has won two Primetime Emmy Awards, and was voted by fellow comedians and comedy insiders as the 23rd greatest comedy star ever in a 2004 British poll to select "The Comedian's Comedian".

Here are Larry David’s qualifications for membership in the
Hall for playing themselves.

Curb Your Enthusiasm
93 episodes

From the IMDb:
The life and times of Larry David and the predicaments he gets himself into with his friends and complete strangers.  

Love & War
- Let's Not Call It Love (1993)

From the IMDb:
Jack and Dana go out as friends, and everywhere they go, they are mistaken for a romantic couple making it harder for them to keep things platonic.  

After Candice Bergen and the set of Murphy Brown (1988) made a guest appearance in the Seinfeld (1989) episode Seinfeld: The Keys (1992) - where Kramer (Michael Richards) is hired as an actor to play Murphy's secretary - Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David returned the favor by appearing as themselves on this other sitcom by Murphy Brown creator Diane English, where they receive a Seinfeld script written by a Blue Shamrock customer, in which Kramer sleeps with Elaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus). This also echoes Elaine's writing a Murphy Brown script in the above mentioned Seinfeld episode. 

Entourage
- New York (2004)

From the IMDb:
Now Vince is about to return to New York for months to shoot, Turtle decides to make some money for a change- by charging entry for Vince's go away-party. Drama finds Adam Davies is a great agent, as he gets him a well-paid audition for a promising pilot, CSI Minneapolis to be shot in Vancouver starring Don Johnson whom Johnny already knows, interesting despite clashing with the timing for Queens Bouelevard and his temper flares up again. Meanwhile E insists he wants his work as Vince's manager recognized, with a formal contract, and plays it hard despite skepticism from Ari and, worst of all, Vince himself.  

Hannah Montana
- My Best Friend's Boyfriend (2007)

From the IMDb:
Lily has a new boyfriend, Luke. Miley catches Lucas making out with another girl. Miley proves to Lily that Luke is cheating on her. Someone steals a pair of sunglasses and Rico installs a new security system to prevent any other thefts. 

The Paul Reiser Show- The Father's Occupation (2011)

From the IMDb:
Paul is asked to host a new game show produced by Mark Burnett, but his friend Larry David is given the same offer. Meanwhile, Brad is upset that Fernando may have tricked him to get a better school project for their children's class.  

Larry David is also mutl-dimensional, meaning that he has appeared in more than one Toobworld.  All of those above are from the main Toobworld, Earth Prime-Time.

For this appearance, he was in the Tooniverse.

TripTank
- Roy & Ben's Day Off (2014)

From the IMDb:
In this animated sketch series, Larry David has lunch with Larry Flynt, an "Animal Hitman" takes out various pets, and Gary's day out playing mini-golf with his son is interrupted by pranks on "Suck It, Gary."  

I usually regret that these people from the League of Themselves never find out that they’ve been inducted into the Television Crossover Hall of Fame.  But in this case, I’m kind of glad that Mr. David doesn’t know about it and I’m even hoping he never does.  I’m afraid of how he might take it.  More than likely, he’d find it stupid and it might piss him off.

Yeesh. Who knows what he’d make of it!

BCnU!
