I really didn’t see much of a backlash to this, at least not in the comments on the video on Youtube, which tend to be mostly liberal commenters. I thought it was funny. I didn’t think the Quasimodo bit played to his strengths but the Holocaust and Weinstein stuff did.

Maybe people were just afraid to laugh.

They’d issue a fatwa.

Offensive no...

that would be work.

welcome to gawker (or univision or whatever)!

Many of these people don’t watch Curb, do they? I can imagine the reactions if they watched certain episodes like The Survivor or whatever.

Yeah, I have to say, that monologue was terrible. Not a single joke, hell not even a moving picture, just the text “The uploader has not made this video available in your country.” I mean, can we even call that a monologue, then? Larry David definitely dropped the ball here.

Maybe we’re living inside a Larry David sitcom, and the purpose of the monologue was to be awkward and make everyone uncomfortable.

Ugh, can we not? There is no backlash. There are always a few idiots with a dumb “This is offensive!” take on something not offensive, and for some reason, the media likes to scour the internet for this tiny minority, amplify their platform, and make every liberal look like an idiot crybaby. Buzzfeed does it all the…

Would be nice if you at the very least paraphrased the joke instead of making me have to watch what you just described as a lousy set to get some idea of what was so outrageous about the joke
