JB gave Curb new life when he came on to the show. He made me laugh with every line that he ever had. You can tell Larry enjoyed working with him as much as we enjoyed watching them together.
@@NewFalconerRecords He didn't save it (As it was a fantastic show already), but he did possibly make it even more hilarious than it already was. Season 6 is my favorite of the series, just one masterpiece after another.
Absolutely died of laughter when Leon talked about Kramer in yesterday's finale. Leon binge-watching Seinfeld really brought things full circle. Gonna miss this show.
@@sujalgautam9761 i read this collect 5 hours ago and just finished the episode 20 minutes ago. Nothing was ruined for me. The Kramer comment was not a spoiler.
What I also liked is that Larry ended the show exactly the same as they did on Seinfeld, I.e a court where they bring back all the characters who have shaped the show along the main cast.
The Leon character is so perfect as a foil for Larry. He's so different but has the same DFAF attitude toward things that they egg each other on. But then Leon says so many wild-eyed things that it almost makes Larry seem reasonable when he goes off and does those typical Larry things that are so funny.
I can't thank Larry enough for continuing Curb after six years gap. I feel that show really gets the recognition it deserves these days. Back in 2011. it felt like nobody cared, and it really was a big deal when the show came back.
JB is the only actor/comedian I know who watched his favorite TV show and said "I am going to be on that show".... And actually did it. He literally casted himself before Larry even knew who he was.
A very concise and funny explanation of several of the great scenes in Curb. Leon was a great addition that, to me, elevated the show. It also made me a fan of JB and this video adds another level of respect for his craft.
Leon should have his own spin-off. Larry doesn't have to do anything. He can just be an exec producer, sit back and collect the cheques. (Yes, I know JB asked Larry this before and Larry said no. Ah, well.)
He's got to be the best supporting character of all time. I wonder if other people appreciate that role as much as I do in comedy. Him, George Costanza, Kramer, Creed Bratton, Gata, Lucile Bluth, Byron Bluth, I'm sure I'm missing others...
So a friend that is a kramer type that avoids employment and lives in your house and eats your food. Lol yeah that works if your rich like Seinfield and Larry.
@@bigstunna2049Seasons 6 and 7 are easily the best two. They stand alone in whatever order you want. Then 3, 4, 5, and 8 come next, again in whatever order.
I believe it was a big F U to the people saying Seinfeld ending was bad like this is the ending and I’m sticking to it by recreating it in a way love it
What's fascinating is the fact that Leon first justifies his joke/makes it as a real life situation and then jokes about it and he does this for most of the clips in this video! Amazing stuff! First make it real and then make them laugh!
I can't watch the last season, it breaks my heart knowing there will never be more. This show is my life, i don't know how to deal with my life without Larry and Leon. I know it sounds like I'm exaggerating but I'm really not. Knowing there was more curb around the corner is probably a major reason I'm still around
Thank you JB. Unforgettable. We are delighted because you a funny sip of hot black coffee and wiv charm that is second to none. I need jb smoothin my life
Larry loves having Leon around because he is down to roll whenever for whatever and has his back 💯. For example the getting back of the peppitone Yankee jersey.😅
Props to you and Raekwon to making Lampin and Lampable great slang. I'm a huge fan of the show it's interesting to hear these choices for Curb because it was always seamless sure you can see moment of the character not breaking but the improv being reacted was genuine that was kept in. Thanks J B for doing this. Like what can you do after Curb it's going to be hard to up the ante. One of the best shows ever!!!
I can tell he be making Larry laugh cuz I know it's improv but the stuff he be coming up with like Larry literally be cracking up because I'm sure he doesn't know what Leon's about to say
I never knew his name.. EVER.. Till now. I always just called him Leon Black. Because that was his name on the show, and only what I knew him in happened to be, the show. Even in GTA 5, I believe he plays a talk show DJ. I call him LEON in that too.
Well done Mr David, well done sir … great last show with great twist at end. And bringing Jerry 2:47 back was genius . Leon asking Jerry about films of him with the woman of senders was hilarious. Jerry playing along with jB was great

I don’t think Curb would have lasted 12 seasons without Leon. He breathed new life into the show and added a new dynamic that totally changed it.
100percent. That gave the show another direction. His divorce and Cheryl getting with Ted… so he could date …
Give the guy his own show
Facts
He’s almost like the giant child Larry and Cheryl never had lol
Leon moves in even though the hurricane didn’t affect him. He lived in L A. Perfect.
“Was he in the hurricane?!”
“No! he lives here in LA!”
@@MikeLikesChannelThat was a hilarious moment 😂😂
He is the master of all free loaders
lmao
JB gave Curb new life when he came on to the show. He made me laugh with every line that he ever had. You can tell Larry enjoyed working with him as much as we enjoyed watching them together.
Completely agree...EVERY LINE
When I first saw the show I though he was gonna be a one off character really glad he wasn't.
Saved the show. Took it to another level.
@@NewFalconerRecords He didn't save it (As it was a fantastic show already), but he did possibly make it even more hilarious than it already was. Season 6 is my favorite of the series, just one masterpiece after another.
They had such great energy together. Everything was just comedy gold. I always smile when the two of them are in a scene
Absolutely died of laughter when Leon talked about Kramer in yesterday's finale. Leon binge-watching Seinfeld really brought things full circle. Gonna miss this show.
spoiled it for us didnt you
Leon is curbs Kramer
@@sujalgautam9761 in my defense, when you’re watching interviews of the cast then I think the spoiler window is open

I love that Leon isn’t necessarily portrayed as a very smart person but Larry always take his advice at full tilt 😂
Leon is probably the most genuine friend that Larry has, along with Jeff
@@trx-hz3lhRichard Lewis..?
@@jsmithers.frenemy adjacent but definitely not full fledged like funk or Danson
Wouldn’t say they get along well. That’s all.
He's street smart

But then Leon says so many wild-eyed things that it almost makes Larry seem reasonable when he goes off and does those typical Larry things that are so funny.
I don’t think I’ve ever clicked on a video faster. He’s the best!
"I brings the ruckus" gets me every time. Especially having seen the blooper reel where that line absolutely cracks Larry 😂
Best dynamic in curb is Leon and Larry
Idk Susie and Jeff or Susie and Larry are up there
Richard and Larry easily are the best!!
larry and leon could keep me engaged all day
no

Back in 2011. it felt like nobody cared, and it really was a big deal when the show came back.
Leon and Marty Funkhouser were my two favorites. 🎉
Rip
They both elevated the show beyond belief. And the show was already brilliant.
I appreciate Vince Vaughn's funkhauser too personally...he's a great middle lol
Saddest thing about curb ending is no more Leon
Leon needs a spinoff
He needs a prequel.
Yea, seriously. I don't know if his character is appreciated enough for how funny he is
@@thomasmartin4281 -
Nah. Leon on needs to be treated like George Lucus' version of Darth Vader. A little bit went a long way and brought the bank.
@@thomasmartin4281yoooo I’m here for a spinoff

A true masterclass on comedy. JB's insights are pure genius.
Word
"I don't fly baby, you gotta have a I.D. for that sh*t"
😂😂😂😂
The way JB keeps talking in and out of character is amazing lol
like the rest of them, the character is based on his real personality. thats why this show works so well and feels so natural.
I'm pretty sure this is just Leon Black pretending to be an actor
@@jackag24 💯 and it’s perfect
He’s talented
Crazy Eyez Killa walked so that Leon could run.
Cool de la
Crazy? Krazy? Cray-Z?
Yes 😂
😂😂
i thought we were cool de la!!
Absolutely genius. And I would PAY to watch those outtakes.
Larry and Leon will go down in history as the greatest TV duo of all time. OF ALL TIME!!!
Leon made curb the version of itself. He made it incredible. Larry and Leon are the best duo ever. We love you, Leon.
One of the all time great comedy duos. JB and Larry are amazing together.
This is going to be an unappreciated interview. This is extremely quality content. S/O JB.
A very concise and funny explanation of several of the great scenes in Curb. Leon was a great addition that, to me, elevated the show. It also made me a fan of JB and this video adds another level of respect for his craft.
I always love that Leon never hesitated to throw Larry under the bus!
Leon should have his own spin-off. Larry doesn't have to do anything. He can just be an exec producer, sit back and collect the cheques. (Yes, I know JB asked Larry this before and Larry said no. Ah, well.)
I love this show....Leon and Suzie are my favorite characters. I wish leon and Susie had more interactions...that would be gold!😂
E JACK A LIT
Leon spin-off is needed
He’s Curb’s Kramer!
Yes and they actually made that clear in the finale. If you pay attn you'll catch it.
An understated Artist, Keep it up Smoove, hope to see more of ya.
He's got to be the best supporting character of all time. I wonder if other people appreciate that role as much as I do in comedy.
Him, George Costanza, Kramer, Creed Bratton, Gata, Lucile Bluth, Byron Bluth, I'm sure I'm missing others...
Byron 😂
I had no idea there were so many complicated levels to this kind of comedy. The cast is perfection because they make it look so easy.
JBs character of Leon is the best friend we all need
So a friend that is a kramer type that avoids employment and lives in your house and eats your food. Lol yeah that works if your rich like Seinfield and Larry.
Leon was a much welcome and surprise addition half way through the series run and became the Black Kramer but somehow more
I’m so glad Leon didn’t leave with the rest of the family 😂
The whole black family moving in was brilliant
my favorite season still
Don't you mean Black Family? 😂😂
@@bigstunna2049Seasons 6 and 7 are easily the best two. They stand alone in whatever order you want. Then 3, 4, 5, and 8 come next, again in whatever order.
This was such an amazing interview. Will miss this show a lot and especially the Leon character
CURB got so much better when he joined the show. No one else could have played Leon. He was perfect for the part.
Love the insight into the improv process. Fascinating
Nah this is Leon playin JB Smoove
JB you’re the heart of this show. I wish you’d write a book or an audio book with Larry. What a treasure that would be
Larry David redeemed himself with this ending, considering how exactly alike to the Seinfeld ending.
It was perfect
I believe it was a big F U to the people saying Seinfeld ending was bad like this is the ending and I’m sticking to it by recreating it in a way love it
He doubled down and it was excellent. Gotta say, Bruce Springsteen added some unexpected comedy chops in the end.
One of the best actors on the show and for sure my favorite character. It's great how JB Smoove dressed like Susie Green for this 🤣
Leon was perfect!
Release the tapes Larry!
Yeah we really need some kind of edit of all the scenes that didn’t make the show! JB is a genius on and off the show
JB has embraced the junior-sized urban sombrero. Love it.
What's fascinating is the fact that Leon first justifies his joke/makes it as a real life situation and then jokes about it and he does this for most of the clips in this video! Amazing stuff! First make it real and then make them laugh!

Stay strong my friend seriously I can relate but there will be more things to laugh at in the future stick around
Please stay ..this is a show you will see clips of for years .There is always something funny in life or someone.Please stick around.
Brilliant. Hysterical. Fun. Thank you for this rundown, it's priceless.
I believe JB will be the star of his own “improv style” show within 3 years and HBO MAX will keep him on the payroll.
I wish Larry made another episode with krazy eyez. That was one of my favorites.
Thank you JB. Unforgettable. We are delighted because you a funny sip of hot black coffee and wiv charm that is second to none. I need jb smoothin my life
Legendary character
Thank you, JB. Forever a legend in comedy.
He’s brilliant. He can see things on multiple levels.
Love it.
JB as Leon took curb to another level. Love that guy
I brings the ruckus to the ladies
JB Smoove has become one of the best comedy actors in Hollywood giving curb your enthusiasm a whole new layer of Funny
I loved all episodes with JB on them. My favorite episodes are with him in them.
JB is a legend. He brings so much to the show
The real magic is when you realise how much thought is behind all these scenes you think are just funny. JB is a real diamond 💎 and a goat!
What a great video. Loved his insights here.
THE WORLD LOVES J.B.!!!!
YES!!! I NEED THAT MOVIE FULL OF ALTERNATE TAKES!!!! TELL HIM, JB!!!!!
Larry loves having Leon around because he is down to roll whenever for whatever and has his back 💯. For example the getting back of the peppitone Yankee jersey.😅
E-jack-a-lit is a legendary beginning. Larry made Leon a permanent character at that moment.
everybody needs a leon in their lives...
JB, you did a wonderful job on Curb, the show was much better off with you, thanks for the laughs!
JB - made curb what it is. legend
Best duo in history
I have re watched every season at least 20x he cracks me up they all do hahahah
21:32 is my all time favorite Leon idea.
Props to you and Raekwon to making Lampin and Lampable great slang. I'm a huge fan of the show it's interesting to hear these choices for Curb because it was always seamless sure you can see moment of the character not breaking but the improv being reacted was genuine that was kept in. Thanks J B for doing this. Like what can you do after Curb it's going to be hard to up the ante. One of the best shows ever!!!
I can tell he be making Larry laugh cuz I know it's improv but the stuff he be coming up with like Larry literally be cracking up because I'm sure he doesn't know what Leon's about to say
Forgot so many of these. Unbelievable character
What a perfect duo, nothing beats Larry and Leon 😎
JB IS A MASTER GENIUS!
Jb Smoove is one of the funniest dudes ever. Always elevates a scene
Ooooooooomg I am SO happy I found this! 😂❤
I absolutely
JB smoove need to start a podcast as Leon
I was glad JB Smoove was on Curb because he always made me laugh so hard until my ribcage became sore.😂😂
I never knew his name.. EVER.. Till now. I always just called him Leon Black. Because that was his name on the show, and only what I knew him in happened to be, the show. Even in GTA 5, I believe he plays a talk show DJ. I call him LEON in that too.
JB is just a naturally hilarious individual
All scout leaders need to be this funny and cool.
the comedy he played out in Leon's character was pure genius!
Leon and Larry together 👏👏👏🤣🤣🤣
This entire interview could have been in universe to the show and it wouldn't have made a lick of difference.
He will never convince me that Leon is a character. If anything, the writer/actor/comedian J.B Smooth is a character that Leon Black plays.
Leon is multifaceted & complex.😊
Well done Mr David, well done sir … great last show with great twist at end. And bringing Jerry 2:47 back was genius . Leon asking Jerry about films of him with the woman of senders was hilarious. Jerry playing along with jB was great
This guy cracks me up
"It's hard playing the infield with polio" made me laugh for a week!
You got to refresh the Mitzvah.😂😂😂
JB was comedy gold- Leon and Larry were 🔥‼️
JB was LEGEND
Always a Fan!! We quoted Duberstein, re: (Bar) Mitzvah Capacity, for awhile
I’ve always said that Danny Duberstein is my all time favorite!
Second is the purse snatch.
Frank Reynolds/Charlie Kelly and Larry David/Leon Black. That's the list of the best comedic duos in television history.
A Leon Black spinoff would be AMAZING!
Larry David and Leon black , best double act ever
