Going behind the scenes at Late Night is a lot like watching an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm. At least it is when everyone’s favorite curmudgeon joined Seth Meyers’s writing staff. Larry David comes onboard the late show to provide some fresh sketches, but his creativity keeps getting stifled by the leg-rest situation, mid-pitch tea-sipping, and, of course, the thought of possibly learning a co-worker’s name. It’s okay if this makes you excited for Curb’s upcoming ninth season on HBO (premiering October 1!), just take those overbearing smiles elsewhere — Seth Meyers is busy writing his nightly show all by himself.
