“Believe me, I’m as upset about this as you are,” David said. “One day I can only hope that HBO will come to their senses and grant me the cancellation I so richly deserve.”
“Curb Your Enthusiasm” originally debuted in 2000 and has aired 100 episodes to date. It originally ended in 2011 after eight seasons, with David reviving it in 2017. The show has received 43 Emmy nominations throughout its run so far, including eight nominations for best comedy series.
“This past season tapped into the zeitgeist in such an uncomfortably delightful way,” said Amy Gravitt, executive vice president of HBO Programming. “Larry is already busy writing, and we can’t wait to see what he has in store.”
The most recent season featured storylines like Larry opening up a coffee shop to spite a coffee shop owner who banned him, leading to a wave of celebrity “spite stores.” Guest stars in Season 10 included Laverne Cox, Jon Hamm, Sean Penn, Kaitlin Olson, Jonah Hill, Jane Krakowski, Abbi Jacobson, and Chris Martin.
David created the series and executive produces in addition to starring. Garlin also executive produces along with Jeff Schaffer and Gavin Polone; Laura Streicher; consulting producer, Jon Hayman.
