In a terrific Curb Your Enthusiasm episode, Larry David befriends a Klansman

Live Mint  

Larry David doesn’t like most people and most people don’t like Larry David. As with any Curb episode, several plots and subplots are in play, but the most remarkable contradiction this time features Larry David striking up a friendship with a member of the Ku Klux Klan. In the episode, Larry walks out of an optometrist’s office with his eyes dilated and bumps blindly into a Klansman, spilling coffee all over his white Klan robe. The title refers to the hateful slavery-era stereotype of black people loving watermelon, due to which Larry’s friend Leon has to eat a fruit he loves on the sly, alone and ashamed. Larry’s motive behind the ruse is getting Harrelson to act in his upcoming streaming series, “Young Larry”.
