I didn't watch it live but have it on dvr for tonight. I'm encouraged by all your enthusiasm. I would think they would address Bob Einstein's passing before the end of the season but I could be wrong.

From The Ringer:
Shooting began for Season 10 of Curb in late 2018. By that point, Einstein was extremely sick and reportedly unable to film. While few details about this season have emerged beyond the trailer, it seems as though Einstein won’t appear in any episodes. That means it’s more than likely that Marty’s last words to Larry were “What are you, a fucking lunatic?” in the Season 9 finale. Feels appropriate.

They will address Funkhauser, according to this interview:

How will you address the passing of longtime co-star Bob Einstein (who played Marty Funkhouser)?
The passing of Bob will definitely be addressed. It was a real shock to us. We were obviously all so sad to lose one of the funniest human beings on the planet. We thought that there was actually a chance that we were going to get him back. He had been on the upswing and we thought we were going to get him back after Christmas, but obviously that didn’t happen. We had saved a lot of scenes because we wanted him in the show as much as possible. We had written stories specifically for him and then we had a lot of sad narrative gymnastics to re-figure out a few things on the fly. It was doing a thing you didn’t want to do for a terrible reason. But he’s definitely addressed and certainly missed.
