Drew Weisholtz is a reporter for TODAY Digital, focusing on pop culture, nostalgia and trending stories. He has seen every episode of “Saved by the Bell” at least 50 times, longs to perfect the crane kick from “The Karate Kid” and performs stand-up comedy, while also cheering on the New York Yankees and New York Giants.
There’s an episode from the first season of “Curb Your Enthusiasm” in 2000 in which series protagonist Larry David winds up in his family’s doghouse after he pens an obituary for his wife’s aunt, only for the newspaper in which it’s printed to include an unfortunate misspelling that leads to calling her a vulgar name in the announcement. It’s a vintage episode, in more ways than one. The episode includes Larry offering to send in the obituary via fax. And it will be printed in a newspaper.
11, with the nation still very nervous about such a possibility. It was a gutsy premise that you can’t help but wonder how it would be received if it came out today. It’s no secret that David’s fingerprints are all over pop culture, but take a step back and consider the breadth of his résumé. He’s been an integral part of the TV landscape since “Seinfeld” premiered in 1989. That’s 35 years.
