“Curb Your Enthusiasm” ended as I predicted, with a spectacularly funny send up of the Seinfeld finale.

It was hilarious, and packed with guest stars including Jerry Seinfeld, who saved Larry after he was convicted for giving water to a voter in Atlanta a bottle of water.

Guest stars also included Allison Janney, Greg Kinnear, Sanaa Lathan, Dean Norris. Kinnear’s character, the prosecutor of Larry’s trial, was named for Earl Mack, very wealthy famed Republican donor and former ambassador. Why? Who knows?

The hour long episode went just as I said it would — paralleling the Seinfeld finale as clips were shown from old episodes over the last 20 years. They even found the grown up 8 year old girl from the first season, now 29. Hilarious. The throwbacks also included things like the key throwing from a couple of episodes ago, and Sharlto Copley as the South African man who invited Larry to Atlanta and started the whole mess.

Larry, as I predicted, is found guilty but gets off on a technicality thanks to Jerry. Seinfeld says, that’s the way our show should have ended — which was the whole point of this season. Highlights of tonight included Susie Essman in a blonde wig and wheelchair with oxygen tank. Also, JB Smoove’s Leon finally watching “Seinfeld” up til the the final episode. Tracey Ullman returned, so did Saverio Guerra as Mocha Joe from the famed Spite Store.

A brilliant ending to a meh season and a great, historic series. Very satisfying. A big thank you to the Curb gang. And a nod to Richard Lewis, who toughed it out to the end. He will be sorely missed.

As I predicted:

Opinion: Strong Feeling How “Curb Your Enthusiasm” Ending Will Echo “Seinfeld” Prison Disaster

No one except the “Curb” gang knows how it will all end tonight after 22 years and 12 seasons.

“Curb” airs tonight on HBO at 10pm. It runs an hour long, and is titled “No Lessons Learned.”

Larry David stands trial in Atlanta for violating the law and handing a bottle of water to a voter on line. He’s seen as a crusader, although as we know he could care less about everyone involved.

Will he go to jail? A mock trial jury convicted him in Los Angeles. So what will happen with a real jury?

HBO’s summary just says: “Larry returns to Atlanta, where he gets involved in Richard’s love life and reveals a secret about Cheryl.”

(Could the secret about Cheryl be that she’s lost her mind as the wife of Robert Kennedy Jr.?)

Much has been made this season of the terrible “Seinfeld” ending that the real Larry wrote after an absence from that show. Jerry, Elaine, Kramer, and George all went to prison for being ridiculously shallow people. The ending is one of the worst in TV history.

If Larry goes to jail, it’s not like he’ll find the gang waiting for them. In real life they had a reunion on “Curb” several years ago. But maybe they would visit him in jail. Also, because this episode is 60 minutes, maybe Larry is convicted, but an appeal overturns it.

In that case, there would be plenty of time to see past characters, or have Larry’s atrocious behavior upbraided in Los Angeles.

“Curb” has dozens of classic episodes in its catalog, ones that will live on forever. This season doesn’t include any, but it doesn’t matter. We’ll be living on Palestinian chicken and the Spite Store for years to come on streaming services.

Come back at 11 pm for the wrap up!
