What it's like to be a guest actor on Curb Your Enthusiasm

The Ringer

"The show is built around guest stars,” says Ben Shenkman, who plays Larry David's attorney for three Season 10 episodes, in The Ringer's oral history of Curb guest actors. Patton Oswalt, who guest-stars this season as Larry's business manager, adds: “This show doesn’t mind the awkwardness of finding the comedy of a conversation that maybe isn’t going anywhere, or someone is being negative and trying to shut things down. That kind of comedy, to me, is incredible. I love that.”
