in one sitting.

Some of it was funny - but some of it irritated the crap out of me. Are there really people like that? Do people like Nathan Flomm/Raleigh really exist?

I think it's funny to a point, and then it's just very squrimy and ... too much for me.

I was not a CYE fan, nor am I a Seinfeld fan, so I know there are some things I just don't "get" in his brand of humor.

but he was in full Beatlejuice mode for split seconds.

My only problem was: how could someone *NOT* recognize this character (Jon Hamm is looking for him and doesn't see him when he's right in front of him? Right), even with different hair/beard/etc???? I can recognize Larry David humor even when someone else is speaking the lines (such as everyone in this film). I kept looking around for Jeff Garlin and George Costanza.
