One wild fact about Curb Your Enthusiasm is that the show helped exonerate an innocent man named Juan Catalan for murder. When the police arrested Catalan for murder in 2003, he told them he was at a Los Angeles Dodger’s game when the crime had been committed. However, they couldn’t find evidence for his alibi until he recalled that HBO was filming Curb Your Enthusiasm there. The cameras also caught Juan Catalan on tape and he was even awarded $320,000 by 2007 in his lawsuit against LA and the police department.
