Movie Info

This critically acclaimed series, which ran from 1992 to 1998, focuses on the behind-the-scenes antics of self-loathing late night talk show host Larry Sanders (Garry Shandling) and his funny and often surprising interactions with crew, writers, and guests. Real celebrities (Dana Carvey, Billy Crystal, and more) appear on Larry's show as themselves, but the real fun happens before and after the show and during the commercial breaks! A fine supporting cast, led by Rip Torn as cantankerous

Unrated, 5 hr. 22 min.

I missed this when it first ran on TV (didn't have HBO), and now I see why it was as popular as it was. A perfect showcase for what Garry Shandling does best: neuroticism. Finding different ways to showcase that along with the talents of the amazing Jeffrey Tambor as his egomaniacally insecure sidekick, this show is a comedy gem. Loved every episode.
