Wtf is that thumbnail?
I can’t wait for the 12 season…and also don’t want it to come. 🥺
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The material was filthier — recall the obituary typo that rendered “beloved aunt” into a phrase unairable in NBC prime time — the milieu more autobiographical and more overtly Jewish.
He also believes other people are sheep, following petty, nonsensical rules, whether those govern using an empty bathroom stall for the disabled or a restaurant’s refusal to serve breakfast after a certain hour.
A recurrent theme of the show is his affluent character believing himself to be persecuted by service employees, including, in the final season, a car valet, a masseuse, a hotel housekeeper and multiple restaurant servers.
(While the plot might seem uncomfortably prescient during the Gaza war in 2024, when it premiered in 2011 it alluded to the controversy over a planned Islamic center in Lower Manhattan that was mislabeled a “ground zero mosque.”)
It did the same with the show’s theme music, “Frolic,” which users slapped onto video of public figures in moments of humiliation or regret, like Chris Christie giving a thousand-yard stare as he stood behind Donald J. Trump, whom he’d endorsed in the 2016 Republican primary.
Still, given the unpredictable schedule of the series — up to now, it had done just three seasons in a decade — I wonder why David felt the need to make a finale at all, and whether the show might just return one day, like George Costanza going back to work after quitting.
