Parenthood and metaphysics are topics that David will also touch upon in the show. “Twenty-five years old, I didn’t know what I wanted to do,” David said in the trailer. “Well, what do you do when you’re talking and people are laughing? You do comedy.” He added, “I never thought of myself as being funny. Anything I was associated with that could be successful was a shock.” “I’m a total fraud,” the father of two quipped. “The ‘Curb’ outlet, for me, is this guy who I want to be.” He’s completely honest, just the opposite of who I am.” David also noted, “My mother would call me up and go, ‘Larry, do they like you? Do they tell you you’re doing a great job?’ Yeah, Ma, they like me. The show is No. 1 in the country.” Following the finale of “Seinfeld” in 1998, David went on to create “Curb Your Enthusiasm” in 2000 for HBO.
