LARRY CHARLES: Comedy Samurai

Send us Fan MailLarry Charles’ comedy journey has taken him to some of the familiar places for a comedy writer, such as on set for Seinfeld, Mad About You and Curb Your Enthusiasm.  At other times, it’s found him running for a waiting van to escape when a scene in the Borat and Bruno movies goes great but upsets the locals.  And then there have been moments in Iraq and Somalia, finding out that there is indeed standup comedy in some not so funny places for his series Larry Charles’ Dangerous World of Comedy.  It’s times like these when the art of talking your way out of situations, an art learned long ago on the streets of Brooklyn, comes in mighty handy.
