It is rather, pretty good.

At the conclusion of the HBO comedy, titled “No Lessons Realized,” the display — which aired for 12 seasons, from 2000 to 2024 — circled back again to the plot line that started when Larry was arrested in Atlanta for providing h2o to Auntie Rae (Ellia English) whilst she was standing on line to vote.
This violated a neighborhood Ga law and made Larry an unlikely people hero, irrespective of the actuality that he did not do it on intent. In the spirit of the display, he experienced been unaware that he was breaking any legislation, and he hadn’t supposed for the gesture to be a grand assertion.
In the finale, Larry and his friends go to Atlanta for the demo. He’s accompanied by Cheryl (Cheryl Hines), Ted Danson (enjoying himself), Jeff (Jeff Garlin), Susie (Susie Essman), Leon (J.B. Smoove) and the late Richard Lewis (playing himself. He died in February).
During the demo, presided around by Judge Whitaker (Dean Norris), Larry and his attorney Sibby Sanders (Sanaa Lathan) are up towards district attorney Earl Mack (Greg Kinnear).
But, Larry is far more worried about more urgent issues, like the lack of coasters in court docket.
Lots of of Larry’s enemies about the a long time just take the stand to testify about his delinquent conduct, together with Mocha Joe (Saverio Guerra), Mr. Takahashi (Dana Lee), Rachel Heineman (Iris Bahr), and Bruce Springsteen (actively playing himself — showing up via online video to berate Larry for giving him COVID-19).
Larry is observed responsible and sentenced to a yr in jail.
“Seinfeld” notoriously finished with a polarizing episode that David wrote. It saw Jerry, George Costanza (Jason Alexander), Kramer (Michael Richards) and Elaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) also investing a year powering bars.
But, contrary to the “Seinfeld” forged, on “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” Larry is then saved by Seinfeld, who rescues him following he learns that a juror broke the rules of his sequestration, causing a mistrial. So Larry receives out on a technicality.
Jerry and Larry have a chat that gives a nod to the “Seinfeld” finale.
“You don’t want to conclusion up like this. No a single desires to see it. Belief me,” Jerry says.
Larry responds, “Oh my God, this is how we really should have ended the finale!”
The series closes on Larry and his entourage receiving into a petty squabble on the flight again to LA after Susie opens the window shade.
