Season 1, Episode 1 - "The Pants Tent "
15 October, 2000
This is the series' pilot episode. Larry's new pants (which are so baggy in the front that they make it look like he has an erection every time he sits down) create awkward misunderstandings between Larry, Cheryl, and her friend. A movie theater argument with a female 'stranger' leads to tensions between Larry and best friend Richard Lewis. Larry's joking referral to Cheryl as "Hitler" (during a car speakerphone conversation with Jeff) cause Larry's attempts to hide it from Cheryl -- and to appease Jeff's Holocaust-sensitive parents -- to backfire disastrously. Kathy Griffin makes a cameo appearance.
