Guest Star of HBO's Hit Series "Curb Your Enthusiasm"Friday, November 3 @ 8pm. The ninth season of the hit HBO series, Curb Your Enthusiasm, made its debut last night and everyone's favorite comedian, Richard Lewis returns as himself this season.
Richard Lewis has taken his lifelong therapy fodder and carved it into a commanding, compelling art form. His early career as a standup brought him to the top of his ranks. Over time and through a variety of mediums, he broadened his exposure and more and more came on board to appreciate his brilliantly warped world.
The New York Times said, "This renowned comedian, often considered to be the heir to Lenny Bruce, is a master of long form storytelling who turns his endless neurotic energy into brilliant comedy."
Comedy Central has recognized Mr. Lewis as one of the top 50 stand-up comedians of all time and he was charted on GQ Magazine's list of the '20th Century's Most Influential Humorists'. In December of 1989, Lewis achieved a very personal goal...he performed at Carnegie Hall to a standing room only audience.
Still after all these years, Lewis remains addicted to performing before live audiences and is on a continuous "Tracks of My Fears" stand up tour. In live performance he is often compared to a jazz musician for his wild riffs that fly out into space but always find a way to float back into rhythm as they splatter recurring themes against a spiraling, lyrical backdrop.
Richard Lewis returns to the new season of HBO's hit series "Curb Your Enthusiasm," which premiered last night.
