Larry David the smooth talker

from malignifier's YT vid description:

This is from the episode "Mel's Offer" of season four of Curb Your Enthusiasm. He's given the challenge to sleep with one random woman for his 10th anniversary present and here he's showing his manager Jeff his skills with meeting the ladies...

Body language-wise, he completely lacked good eye contact, but his shoulder-to-shoulder approach was good, less threatening.

He shouldn't hold his beer in front of him, looks too defensive, everybody does that. He should hold it down, to his side.

Too much gesturing communicates anxiety. He should move his hands slower or keep 'em below his waist.

If he's gonna do most of the talking (which is fine in the first few minutes), he should "ping" with stuff like, "right?", or "don't you agree?", just so it resembles a conversation.

At anytime he could introduce himself, maybe once she laughed?

It's a show that I'd like to watch, but every time someone posts a clip on the Sift, I find it distinctly unfunny and disappointing. I have to assume those are the best clips from the show.
