I just want to determine what you mean by faux pas bad temper. I understand the pas + bad temper, but th e faux seems to undermine your meaning.
Just an inquisition.:)

yes you are right because in seinfeld Jerry is the obsessive type like Larry and also Jerry is the intelligent one like Larry.
George is stupid and pathetic, and if you watch the movie ‘Shallow Hal’ you will realise that most of that is coming from Jason. I would never believe that Larry David could act like George Costanza and snort and carry on like that in front of a woman. George Costanza is a devlopment of Jason’s. BTW the recurring faux pas, bad temper etc has been around for years..

Ever since the Office, I try to figure out who fits which character from the show around the office I work in … it worked like a charm .. like therapy to get me through the day so to speak

Well I think all the actors in Seinfeld made the
characters their own, but even Jerry is a little
bit LD. LD and JS I think, just completely
understand each other. For instance, who came
up with the bit where Jerry dumps a girl only
because she ate her peas one at a time? Was
that pure Larry or could it have been Jerry’s
idea? It’s hard to tell. As for the voice, I
never really noticed that before but you’re
right. They are both New Yorkers from Brooklyn,
so that could be why. IDK

yes the character was based on Larry David but IMO i believe George Costanza character on screen was definently more a creation of Jason Alexander’s acting than the stories that were provided by Larry David.
But yes, you were right in your original point, George is the closest to Larry.
BTW, did you notice Larry’s voice often sounds like Jerry?

Yes you’re right, and I just watched all those
episodes again and realized that. He seems
bewildered that everyone says George
Costanza is an idiot lol but I don’t think I
caught that the first time I watched the
show. It just dawned on me once when
I was watching Seinfeld. Maybe I did pick
up on it though, subconsciously.
Who knows.

He also pretty much says it in the beginning of S02, when Larry and Jason have a meeting together.

My GF and I used to argue when I said that the
character in Seinfeld that is closest to Larry’s
real self was George Costanza. She said no way
but after awhile of CYE she started to agree
with me. Then Larry actually says that in the
7th season of CYE. I had to call her right up
and gloat just a little lol

It is Will Rogers who said:

True financial success in comedic artistic endeavors come when both low-brow and high-brow humor intersect without harsh contrast. Both these men are intelligent enough to cater to higher modes of ironic and highly observant humor. By the same token, they have enough well-grounded sensibility and thirst for authentic expression to include more simplistic comedic elements where they fit most appropriately, accenting the entire piece and fleshing it out.

Ricky Gervais nailed it at 7:30 onwards. It’s good to see he’s not discouraged by the fact that the majority — or at least a massive proportion — of people have a collective and therefore redundant sense of humor based on trends or fads or what is deemed “funny” and laugh at something because it hits on a certain catchphrase or a social observation that’s “funny” because it’s trendy.
