Larry David Pays Tribute to Richard Lewis: ‘Like a Brother to Me … the Funniest Person and Also the Sweetest’ (https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/larry-david-tribute-richard-lewis-curb-your-enthusiasm-1235925761/)

Very sad.........

So sad to hear of Richard's passing... :( :( :(

Richard Lewis' final Curb Your Enthusiasm scene has yet to air (https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/richard-lewis-larry-david-curb-your-enthusiasm-final-season-energy-scenes-1235839496/)

Lewis appeared on the Feb. 18 episode of Curb, nine days before his death Tuesday at age 76, arguing with Larry David about his final will (https://www.thewrap.com/richard-lewis-curb-your-enthusiasm-final-appearance-hbo-larry-david/). According to The Hollywood Reporter's Jackie Strause, "Lewis will continue to appear on the season, and had been with the cast and crew to promote the final run." In an interview about the episode before Lewis' death, Curb showrunner Jeff Schaffer recalled Lewis filming Season 12 while dealing with Parkinson's (https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-features/curb-your-enthusiasm-episode-3-larry-david-edit-debate-1235829423/). “He was a champ,” said Schaffer, recalling how they filmed during early morning hours in the cold L.A. winter. “Richard is down to do anything on the show. The will stuff was part of the story, but the sperm fights (laughing) just came out of nowhere. Them arguing about who has more sperm, and then Leon just shutting it down because nobody wants it in powdered milk form (laughing) — there’s a lot of things we put in people’s heads in this episode that hopefully they won’t be able to unsee for a long time.”

This Is Richard Lewis’ Best Episode of ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ (https://collider.com/curb-your-enthusiasm-richard-lewis/)

This is, "quite frankly," the late great comedian's greatest contribution to the show.
