For Larry David, the 1980s began with so much promise. After years of rejection — from women, from employers, from audiences seeking laughter — it seemed that Larry’s luck had finally changed. Following a nationwide talent search, he had been selected as one of nine young comics to star on ABC’s new late-night sketch show, 'Fridays.' This was it, the proverbial big break. And one with such promise that Larry was even willing to leave his native New York for L.A. Well … as it turned out, Larry’s big break didn’t quite go according to plan. And four years later, he was back in New York with less confidence than when he had left. Nevertheless, he soon managed to secure another great late-night opportunity — this time as a writer for the tenth season of 'Saturday Night Live.' And because Larry is Larry (and therefore governed by a peculiar physics that dictates that every step forward be followed by two in reverse), his year at 'SNL' would prove to be far from a rosy adventure.
