Personal Quote:

(2007, on turning down the sequel to Daddy Day Care) I have to be blunt. They wanted me for the sequel, but they didn't offer me enough money. And if I'm gonna be in a big piece of shit like that, I'm gonna need a lot of money. By the way, if they had offered me a lot of money, they could have made the movie even stinkier, and I still would've done it. See more »

Trivia:

Jeff Garlin actually had a stroke just prior to the filming of Curb Your Enthusiasm and has noted, himself during the commentary, that in the early episodes, he would slur his words or phrases due to the temporary physical impairment. See more »
