Larry's back – and that's pritty, pritty, pritty good news!
Six years after the award-winning Curb Your Enthusiasm ended its last season, HBO will premiere ten brand-new episodes of the Emmy®- and Golden Globe-winning hit series starring writer/producer/comedian Larry David as … writer/producer/comedian Larry David. Each episode features verité-style footage of David (playing himself) as he gets into everyday predicaments with both fictional and real-life personalities. With cast regulars Jeff Garlin (as manager Jeff Greene), Susie Essman (as Jeff's wife Susie), Cheryl Hines (as Larry's ex-wife Cheryl) and JB Smoove (as Larry's live-in friend Leon) reprising their roles, the series continues to feature appearances by guests playing themselves or characters. Appearing on new episodes are returning favorites Richard Lewis, Bob Einstein, Ted Danson and Mary Steenburgen, as well as Elizabeth Banks, Ed Begley, Jr., Carrie Brownstein, Bryan Cranston, Lauren Graham, Jimmy Kimmel, Nick Offerman, Nasim Pedrad, Elizabeth Perkins and others. This season, Larry has a big idea that elicits promising feedback from a number of prospective investors – until a string of missteps undermines the plan, at least temporarily.
Reviews
“Despite a six-year gap between Season 8 and Season 9, Larry David's attack on uncomfortable social customs felt right at home in 2017. Some things never change, and David is certainly one of those things.”
- IndieWire
“In his boundless ability to provoke and offend, Larry may also be pop culture's foremost ethicist.”
- L.A Times
“Curb has never been a political show, but there's something about that saving-grace sentiment that does reflect contemporary times. Nuclear war looks imminent, but at least Curb is back on.”
