Binge-Watching The Larry Sanders Show


Jennifer Wood for Wired;

As much as it allowed Shandling to poke fun at the seemingly insane inner-workings of the entertainment industry--a system in which he was firmly entrenched--The Larry Sanders Show ultimately serves as a sort of love letter to Hollywood. Despite the roller coaster ride it can take you on, with impossible highs and unthinkable lows sometimes occurring within minutes of each other, once you get a taste, you never want to leave it. Cringe-worthy moments and all.

The recent passing of Garry Shandling has people looking back has his iconic HBO sitcom. I re-watched the whole thing a few years back when my daughter was born. Taking the late shift, we'd plot through several episodes a night in the Lay-Z-Boy.
