Curb Your Enthusiasm: Ted and Mary (2000)
Season 1, Episode 2
8/10
Larry & Cheryl & Ted & Mary
7 April 2024
Larry and Cheryl go bowling with Ted Danson and Mary Steenburgen. They have a great time with the exception of the attendant having given Larry's shoes to somebody else - and the weird thing is that they put them on and left!

Later Larry is talking about what a great person Mary is, and Cheryl says she wouldn't be bothered with Larry and Mary becoming friends, although Larry at first wonders about this since society frowns on people who are married to others being friends. This leads to Larry spending the day shopping with Mary and her mother which looks like it is going swimmingly until Larry commits a social faux pas. When Ted and Mary don't call regarding what was supposed to be them all going to see Paul Simon in concert, Larry wonders if what he did is the reason they are being snubbed, and wonders if he should tell Cheryl about what happened.

As becomes a thing in this series, Larry rubs a salesperson the wrong way and then they retaliate as in giving bad customer service as if they own the place. I know this is just a half hour comedy show, but in the real world if someone with Larry David's clout goes up against a minimum wage employee with an attitude, Larry David is going to win and the minimum wage employee is going to lose and likely be out on the street. Still, fun stuff.
