From Ben Stiller to Ted Danson: The 8 Funniest ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ Guest Stars
These eight familiar faces gave Larry a run for his money
Larry David brought to life the fictionalized version of himself on the hit series Curb Your Enthusiasm for 12 seasons. The series made us laugh, made us cringe and served as a hilarious commentary on the mundane happenings and interactions that take place in our everyday life. In addition to regular cast members like David, Cheryl Hines, who played his wife (and later ex-wife), Jeff Garlin, who played Larry’s friend and manager, Susie Essman who brought to life Jeff’s wife and J.B. Smoove as Larry’s friend Leon, the show featured dozens of guest stars over the years it was on that truly made the show. Here, take a look at a few of our favorite Curb Your Enthusiasm guest stars—Ted Danson to Ben Stiller.
Ben Stiller
Ben Stiller brought a level of comedy to Curb Your Enthusiasm that we love to look back on to this day. From a birthday blowout to an incident involving a skewer and an eye, the hilarious actor’s chemistry with David made for a hilarious pairing.
Jon Hamm
Jon Hamm’s hilarious stint on Curb had him shadowing Larry as he intended to play a character based on him in a movie he was set to act in. As expected, this companionship escalates into something far more complicated.
Shaquille O’Neal
In true Larry fashion, the show’s star extended his legs while sitting courtside at a Lakers game, tripping basketball star Shaquille O’Neal and injuring him.
Lori Loughlin
Full House actress Lori Loughlin poked a bit of fun at herself in the wake of the 2019 college admission scandal she was involved with by playing a version of herself who lies and cheats her way to getting special privileges at a country club after leaning on Larry to help her gain readmission.
Bruce Springsteen
During Springsteen’s Curb Your Enthusiasm appearance, Larry gives the famed musician COVID, forcing him to cancel his tour.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
Julia Louis-Dreyfus’ chemistry with David was stellar, the two having worked together in the past on Seinfeld, making her appearances on the show fan favorites over the years.
Michael J. Fox
Michael J. Fox was a hilarious addition to the cast of Curb Your Enthusiasm, playing Larry’s upstairs neighbor, with their intense dispute ending with Larry being banished from New York City.
Ted Danson
Ted Danson was one of the most consistent Curb Your Enthusiasm guest stars, and his complicated relationship with Larry throughout the series came to a head when he began dating Larry’s ex-wife, Cheryl. The sitcom star was a great addition to this series and provided some of our favorite moments of the show.
