In case the aggravated shouting that’s been echoing across the valleys of the greater Los Angeles area didn’t give it away, Curb Your Enthusiasm Season 12 has started filming. In a video posted yesterday on J.B. Smoove’s Instagram page, Leon Black took a moment on set with Larry, Susie, and Jeff to plug his own stand-up tour dates, prompting an unscripted shouting match between Smoove and the series’ creator.
Though Smoove was clearly more interested in selling tickets to his tour than breaking news about the return of the 51-time Emmy-nominated sitcom, the post gives us a perfect taste of that Curb-style acrimony as we anxiously await its return after almost a full year without Larry David’s petty, bitter, explosive misadventures. Clearly he’s been saving up his anger for a while.
