Leon, Funny Guy!


As a comedian sometimes you have to watch other comedians at work, performing their craft whether it be on a TV sitcom or live on stage doing stand-up, and once in a while, on a rare occasion you are blown away, and can't help kicking yourself because you didn't think of it first and also laughing so much a little bit of sex wee comes out. I'm sure this happens in all fields of work, particularly creative ones. This has happened to me a good few times, the most recent was when I was beginning to write a sitcom script just before 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' season 6 started, and I discovered my favourite supporting sitcom character of all-time... Leon. The way he bounces off Larry David is genius, and so natural. It made me want to give up forever, because it would be near impossible to top this. But then I had a gig the next week and made a room full of people laugh so much a bit of...yeah.

Larry David I salute you. You continue to inspire me.Watch this video,
Leon's Best Bits 'Curb Your Enthusiasm'

I also came to the conclusion recently, that every good sitcom needs a great supporting cast of funny and interesting characters, The Office (yup), Curb Your Enthusiasm (yup), Peep Show (yup). The three best sitcom's ever made, PERIOD.
Thoughts?
