I'm rating this a five right now, ten days before it airs, purely because Andy Richter, Jeff Garlin, and J.K. Simmons are going to be in it.

isnt' jeff Garlin in Curb your Enthusiasm also?

He is indeed. He plays Larry's manager, "Jeff".

by **Beatrice** » January 9th, 2005, 8:36 pm

Right! I thought he was Larry's Manager.
thanks for double checking Mr. Manager!!

i don't recognize J. K. Simmons. Who is he? Oh, and Ed Begley Jr is in this episode, but I don't think anyone can get excited about him!

A quick visit to the IMDb reveals that he is a fairly well known actor. You probably know him as J. Jonah Jameson, Peter's boss in the Spider-Man movies. He was also in a number of very famous movies and TV shows. You can view his bio here:

@IMdb

He's pretty funny, I bet he'll do well.

Edited for formatting - Ed.

hee hee hee! its J. Jonah Jameson! he was great in spiderman, though!

Jeff Garlin and Andy Richter are two of the most perfect sidekicks ever! Can't wait!

Wot? Ed Begley Jr. will fit nicely in this cast.

by **becky** » January 13th, 2005, 5:37 pm

Oops, I just went to Imdb to look up Ed Begley Jr. and realized I had him confused for Nick Nolte or Jim J. Bullock or someone because I don't recognize most of those movies! Except Best in Show, he was fine in that! That makes the 4th person from Best in Show to be on A.D., right?

What a good episode! Each week, getting better!

Wow, that was a great episode. I though Maeby really stole the episode. Using the "reader" for her book report, "4 syllables max"... brilliant. I really liked the guest stars this week, because they were used sparingly and not overshadow the main cast. Especially Ed Begley who didn't overact or overdo his schtick (*cough* Martin Mull).

That sequence with Gob and the girls had me laughing so hard I was crying.

Totally! Maeby was awesome tonight. I wonder if being a movie producer will be a continuing storyline for her?
