Even down to the frantically goofy background music, the trailer for Larry David's Clear History HBO comedy appears to be taking cues from Curb Your Enthusiasm

David plays an executive at a car company who gets into an argument with his boss (Mad Men's Jon Hamm) and decides to sell back his shares  and quit.
