Corporate America And the Media

Garry Shandling Goes Dark
Its around 2 on a Wednesday in late April and Garry Shandling is studying the screen of an editing terminal upstairs from what used to be his office at The Larry Sanders Show. The offices are empty now, furniture upended, ready for storage. The Larry Sanders Show, a brilliant, lacerating situation comedy about a fictitious late-night talk-show host and the complications, both emotional and professional, of his show-biz life, filmed its last episode, the one Shandling is now editing, a month ago. The key to Sanders, which completes its sixth season on HBO tonight, has been tension and longing, the way the characters bumped up against one another in their quest for some sort of intangible sense of acceptance and glory. The show was born out of the Leno-Letterman, man-who-would-be-Johnny talk-show wars, and Shandling, a stand-up comedian who had been a guest host for Carson during the mid-80s, saw the backstage whirl as emblematic of larger desires in American culture. The whole world is show business now, he explains, still concentrating on the editing terminal. Everyone wants to be famous. They think being famous will change their life. Im here to tell them that it doesnt. Shandling, who is wearing jeans, an untucked sky-blue work shirt and untied hiking boots, always planned for this to be his last season. As executive producer, writer, star and sometime director, he had become overwhelmed by the Sanders workload. Maintaining the quality of any show year in, year out is extremely difficult, and Sanders, while not a ratings success (cable is, still, cable), is arguably the most critically acclaimed comedy on television. I had a deal with Jerry, Shandling jokes about his good friend Jerry Seinfeld. When he quits, I quit. The timing is fitting: in many ways, The Larry Sanders Show is the evil twin of Seinfeld. Both shows revolve around a comedian and his loyal and peculiar friends, but where Seinfeld is the calm center of his universe, Shandling is the edgiest person in his. Larry Sanders is my favorite sitcom-type show on TV, Seinfeld says. Garry Shandling is my hero..
