...nervous about who will appear on the final night. There are some perfect moments of celebrity humiliation: Larry chases Warren Beatty in the parking lot and asks him to be a guest to say goodbye. Beatty says, "I could say goodbye to you now." Larry's needy sidekick, Hank, and his blustering producer, Artie, have always been at the center of the show, and in the last episode too they have wonderful scenes. Artie bucks up Larry when it turns out that Clint Black will serenade him, instead of a female singer; Hank asks Larry, "At what point...
Asked what has given him the most satisfaction about Larry Sanders, Shandling cites "the casting and the honesty of the acting." He is right to be proud.

Howard Stern, rightfully calling into question the idea that 50 actors, models and other celebrities' pictures do anything for national morale, has started a campaign of his own--for Hank the Angry, Drunken Dwarf. And Stern and friends are succeeding: Hank, the Angry, Drunken Dwarf, is so popular that he has gone from write in to actually being on the ballot. Not to mention the fact that he leads the next contender, Leonardo DiCaprio, by 153,872 votes...
Both People and Time are now in the indelicate position of honoring their votes or asserting editorial control, and we at Dartboard have a bad feeling about what will happen. Still, it is fun while it lasts: go cheer on Hank the Dwarf and start purchasing that Ataturk memorabilia...
