"unbelievable when i did these things in real life i was scored, mocked and shunned and they did it on the show people laughed and loved them." My favorite part.

"I have to thank Chris Albrecht and Bud Friedman from the Improv and Rick Newman from Catch a Rising Star who consistently gave me spots in New York even though more often than not I turned a crowd into an angry mob." Priceless.

Seinfeld and Curb, two different shows, both are equally great in their own unique ways.

Oh wow! I am so touched: His critical parents, his consequent self-doubt and low self-esteem, his increasing anger and frustration with the morons in his life, and people in general, his lifting out of the abyss that he was in by a seemingly mysterious hand. I am totally touched. He even checked out places for himself in New York in case he was going to end up homeless. But his destiny/God/Creator/ made sure he was forced to use his talents. I'm not envious of his success or money, I just wish I had someone guiding me in this life to discover and use my God given talents. I suppose we're all here for different purposes. Great video, totally loved the speech.

Larry David - comedy genius. Anyone with that level of involvement with Seinfeld and Curb must be a genius. And then some of the most quirkiest characters is either himself or based on him. A show with Larry David and Bob Newhart would be epic - if only...

That was the best speech I've ever heard!

I always imagined that if I had seen Larry doing standup way back in the day, I would've been the only one laughing, and my friends would have said: "You like this? He's terrible!:" And they would have stopped calling me after that...

CYE, best comedy show ever! No political correctness, no topic untouched! Brilliant!

Larry David really is great,his show is great to love him and his comedy

Hilarious, L.D. always glosses over the years of work prior to Seinfeld. "Fridays" was a show ahead of its time with moments too surreal for network tv. I have a feeling it would've thrived in today's cable/direct tv market.

Really love this speech

Thank you so much Larry. Love and respect. 🦁✌😎😁

Brilliant, as always.

Such a natural talent for this shit man.

I understand Larry David. Then I met a few Asperger people and understood them too. Then, I was diagnosed with Asperger's in my later 30s. It answered a lot of questions. It explained a lot. I, too, have a grammar obsession and I hate the misuse of the word "you." You is the second person, direct sense. It-the word "you"-is not a substitute for "me," "I," "us," "we" and so on. The word "you" is not a substitute for any group of people or individuals and should only be used in the singular form.
