Jeremy Piven, who played the head writer of "The Larry Sanders Show," supplies the lightest remembrance on the new DVD set.
Garry Shandling and co-star Rip Torn pranked him: Naked Piven was simulating sex with an actress, and Shandling never yelled "cut".

"I'm on top of this beautiful stranger," Piven says,"and it just seems like I am simulating sex for the rest of my adult life. ... And finally, I kind of look up and Garry and Rip have tears squirting out of their eyes."
