About

You can stream The Larry Sanders Show (1992) on Max with a subscription.

Comic Garry Shandling draws upon his own talk show experiences to create the character of Larry Sanders, a paranoid, insecure host of a late night talk show. Larry, along with his obsequious TV sidekick Hank Kingsley and his fiercely protective producer Artie, allows Garry Shandling and his talented writers to look behind the scenes and to show us a convincing slice of behind the camera life.

Larry Sanders navigates the hollow ego and frantic insecurity of late-night stardom while desperately clinging to his relevance. Behind the curtain, the show peels back the polished veneer of celebrity to reveal the messy, hilarious dysfunction of a television production.
