As “Curb Your Enthusiasm” prepares to bid farewell after a 24-year run and 12 seasons on HBO, star J.B. Smoove argues there’s one mystery left unsolved that he’d love to see get the spin-off treatment: What was Leon Black up to before he met Larry David?
“I’d be a fool to say I wouldn’t be open to a spin-off,” Smoove told TheWrap. “I think this dude has levels to him. We don’t know what he does when he’s not with Larry, we don’t know where he came from. I think there’s something to this guy that’s really interesting in how he sees things.”
Leon first appeared in “Curb” during Season 6 when he decides to take refuge at Larry and Cheryl’s house after his family is displaced by a hurricane — and proceeds to never move out. Over the subsequent seven seasons, he...

‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ Guest Star Troy Kotsur Reveals the Joke That Made Larry David Break Character
Note: The following story contains spoilers from “Curb Your Enthusiasm” Season 12, Episode 3.
Sunday’s episode of “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” titled “Vertical Drop, Horizontal Tug,” sees Larry David hit the golf course, where he eavesdrops on a lesson that improves his swing a little too well.
The lesson is given to Troy Kotsur, a deaf actor who is best known for his Academy Award-winning supporting role in the Apple TV+ film “Coda.” Through the rest of the episode, Kotsur’s feud with David intensifies as he’s hit in the back by one of Larry’s golf balls and later hit with a bagel intended for a homeless man.
To keep the narrative spontaneous, “Curb Your Enthusiasm” is shot without a script. Cast members are given scene outlines so they can improvise lines as they go. The actor opened up about how his prior experience in improv helped him make David...

Curb Your Enthusiasm has been part of the comedy zeitgeist since it first aired in 2000. The HBO sitcom never quite followed routine season premieres. But fans always welcomed the return of Larry David to their screens. This was the case once more on January 30, 2024, as the cast gathered with stars and producers to celebrate the 12th and final Curb Your Enthusiasm premiere.

Larry David has returned to bless us with his final gripes.
HBO has released the trailer for the 12th and final season of its Emmy-winning comedy Curb Your Enthusiasm.
The 10-episode final season continues to see David as an over-the-top version of himself navigating his social and professional life in Hollywood. The show has spanned nearly 25 years given its irregular production schedule, which was largely dependent on when David felt ready and inspired to make another season. It’s also HBO’s longest-running series.
In December, when David confirmed the new season would be its last, he released this statement: “As Curb comes to an end, I will now have the opportunity to finally shed this ‘Larry David’ persona and become the person God intended me to be — the thoughtful, kind, caring, considerate human being I was until I got derailed by portraying this malignant character. And so ‘Larry David,...

Prettay… prettay… prettay… sad.
“Curb Your Enthusiasm” is officially ending with Season 12, which premieres Feb. 4 at 10 p.m. on HBO and Max. The 10-episode season will conclude with a series finale on April 7.
You might be thinking: Isn’t every season of “Curb” potentially its last? While this is sorta true — the series has long operated with an open invitation from HBO and without a strict timeline — the cable network is, for the first time, definitively promoting the next batch of episodes as Larry David’s “final season.”

The time has come to say goodbye to Curb Your Enthusiasm.
After eight seasons, a six-year hiatus and three-season revival — with one more season still to come — Larry David is officially ending his run as TV’s Larry David, a version of himself that he will have played for nearly a span of 25 years on the hit Emmy- and Golden Globe-winning HBO comedy.
HBO and the star-creator on Thursday announced that Curb Your Enthusiasm will end with its previously announced 12th season, which will premiere Feb. 4. The final season will consist of 10 episodes, releasing weekly on Sundays at 10 p.m.

We can hear the tuba already. “Curb Your Enthusiasm” is returning for its 12th season on February 4 — as IndieWire previously exclusively reported — but we now know that this season will be its last.
For real this time too. HBO on December 14 officially announced the 12th season of “Curb” as the final for Larry David and company. People have been speculating about the end of “Curb” for years now, but it always boiled down to whether David wanted to do any more. David and co-executive producer Jeff Schaffer have even said they treat every season like it could be a series finale.
Now we’ve got word from the man himself, saying he’s ready to shed this “Larry David” persona he’s been putting on all these years.

It’s the never-ending question. Will the upcoming season of Curb Your Enthusiasm be its last? HBO chief Casey Bloys addressed that when asked at the network’s programming presentation this morning.
“We generally leave that up to Larry, and I think he’s thinking about what he wants to do,” Bloys said. “He knows it’s been an open invitation, so I think he’s going to decide if he wants to do more or whether this is going to be the final season, I would guess before it airs.”
Speculation was rampant last spring after producer Jon Hayman suggested in a tweet that the HBO series might be coming to an end with its upcoming 12th season. The tweet was deleted and EP Jeff Schaffer disputed the comments.
“Reports of our demise have been greatly exaggerated. We literally just finished shooting last week. So, yeah, we’re done,...

Don’t go sending Curb Your Enthusiasm to an early grave just yet.
After producer Jon Hayman suggested last week that the HBO series might be coming to an end with its upcoming 12th season, executive producer Jeff Schaffer told Deadline that isn’t necessarily the case.
“Reports of our demise have been greatly exaggerated. We literally just finished shooting last week. So, yeah, we’re done,” he said, adding that the crew, including Larry David himself, ends each season with the expectation that the series may or may not continue.
“My first season was Season 5. And you know what the final episode of that season was called? ‘The End.’ Not ironically. That was 15 years ago. So every season is the last season. It’s been this way forever,” he continued. “Larry’s put all the ideas he likes into the season. He’s the only one who thinks he...

Curb your expectations about Curb Your Enthusiasm running for a long, long time: it looks like the upcoming 12th season could be its last.
In a tweet that has since been wiped off the face of the earth, producer Jon Hayman suggested the fun will soon be coming to an end on the Larry David comedy.

HBO is not commenting.
Last August, the premium network ordered a 12th season of the show that stars the Seinfeld co-creator as an over-the-top version of himself. The series also stars Jeff Garlin, Susie Essman, J.B. Smoove, Cheryl Hines, Richard Lewis, Vince Vaughn, and Ted Danson.

Larry David will be back for more laughter and shenanigans in another season of "Curb Your Enthusiasm," a hilarious sitcom about basically nothing. Since 2000, the American comedian and "Seinfeld" co-creator has played a fictionalized version of himself in the series, stumbling his way through the city of Los Angeles. He hangs out with his wife and manager, meets celebrities, and gets frustrated from time to time. His curmudgeonly personality gets him into trouble more times than he has the patience to deal with (but it's usually all good).
"Curb Your Enthusiasm" has often been described as HBO's version of "Seinfeld." The dialogue is mostly improvised from the actors. It's a perfect time for anyone who wants to sit back and laugh. The show's 11th season wrapped in December 2021, and it has been officially renewed for season 12. While most details for the new season are being kept under wraps, here's everything we do know about it.

Originally debuting on HBO in 2001 and with 110 completed episodes to date, Curb Your Enthusiasm stars “Seinfeld” co-creator David as an over-the-top version of himself in an unsparing but tongue-in-cheek depiction of his fictionalized life. The series also stars Jeff Garlin, Susie Essman, J.B. Smoove, Cheryl Hines, Richard Lewis, Vince Vaughn, and Ted Danson. ·Amy Gravitt, Executive Vice President, HBO Programming quote: “Larry outdoes himself season after season and always manages to come back when the audience needs him most.

Larry David’s Curb Your Enthusiasm will be hanging around for at least a 12th season. HBO officially renewed the award-winning comedy series for season 12.

In researching this multi-faceted, multi-talented man, I discovered that there’s more to him than I ever could have imagined: He speaks six languages, brines his own pickles, and spearheads a national movement to install a bidet in every home. I’ve also been told from numerous sources that he is the most generous of lovers. I am so excited to once again transform into this force of nature. I only pray that I can do him justice.”

“Larry outdoes himself season after season and always manages to come back when the audience needs him most,” said HBO Programming EVP Amy Gravitt in a statement. “We’re thrilled for him, Jeff Schaffer, and our phenomenal cast to continue making us laugh and cringe in equal measure.”

Although Curb Your Enthusiasm shot — and then discarded — a death scene for Larry David to end its previous season, both the show and its central character are alive.
HBO has picked up a 12th season of the comedy series, eight months after season 11 aired its last episode. The premium cable outlet has more or less an open-door policy with David and fellow executive producer Jeff Schaffer; if and when they have ideas for a new season, HBO says yes.
There’s no word yet on when Curb will begin filming its 12th season, or when it will premiere. At 11 seasons (spanning 20 years) and 110 episodes so far, the show is HBO’s longest-running scripted (or outlined and improvised, in this case) series.

The world has changed but Larry David hasn’t. That’s the best possible news for the legion fanbase of “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” the comedian’s long-running half-hour series. HBO dropped the trailer for its upcoming Season 11 on Wednesday, October 13, featuring guest stars Patton Oswalt, Vince Vaughn, Jon Hamm, Seth Rogen, and more.
The series originally debuted in 2001 and has run for more than 100 episodes. “Curb Your Enthusiasm” stars “Seinfeld” co-creator David as an over-the-top version of himself in an unsparing but tongue-in-cheek depiction of his fictionalized life. The series also stars Susie Essman (“Broad City”), Jeff Garlin (“The Goldbergs”), Cheryl Hines (“Suburgatory”), J.B. Smoove (“Mapleworth Murders”), Ted Danson (“The Good Place”) and Richard Lewis (“Anything But Love”).
Per HBO, the comedy series continues to prove how seemingly trivial details of one’s day-to-day life — a cold cup of coffee, a stained shirt, a missing toothbrush — can precipitate a catastrophic chain of events.

“Nomadland” look home the top film prize at the 2021 Producers Guild Awards Wednesday, bringing it closer to a Best Picture win. The winner of the PGA Awards’ top prize has historically been a strong indicator of which film will will go on to win the Best Picture Oscar. Since 1989, the PGA winner has matched up with the top Oscar 21 out of 31 times. It happened in 2018 with “Green Book,” but not last year: “1917” won at the 2020 PGAs, but the Academy Award for Best Picture went to “Parasite.”
This year, 10 movies competed for the Darryl F. Zanuck Award for Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Motion Pictures (see the full list of nominees and winners below). Seven 2021 PGA nominees for the top prize are also 2021 Oscar Best Picture nominees: “Judas and the Black Messiah,” “Mank,” “Minari,” “Nomadland,” “Promising Young Woman,” “Sound Of Metal,” and “The Trial of the Chicago 7.”

When the 11th season of “Curb Your Enthusiasm” finally premieres, it will be without longtime series staple Richard Lewis.
Lewis, who has played a fictionalized version of himself on Larry David’s semi-autobiographical HBO comedy since its premiere, said Monday he can’t join in the fun this time around due to several surgeries he’s had in recent months.
“What a ride, Ld! I love you, buddy,” Lewis tweeted, along with a picture of himself and David. “Tragically, these past 18 months I’ve endured a back and two shoulder surgeries and not able to be in #curbyourenthusiasm for season 11. I’ll be watching…@HBO”
“Curb” star Cheryl Hines, who plays Larry’s ex-wife on the comedy, commented: “Richard!!!! We looooooove you! Feel better! We’re going to miss you this season. Season 12 it is!”

The Producers Guild of America hands out its awards on Saturday, Jan. 20, 2018. That is the night before the Screen Actors Guild does the same. Unlike, the latter, which will air on TNT and TBS, the PGA ceremony is not televised. However, it is an equally important stop on the road to the Oscars.
The PGA Awards has an enviable track record at presaging the eventual Best Picture winner at the Academy Awards. The guild and the academy have agreed on 19 of the most recent 28 Best Picture champs. Last year, all nine Oscar nominees for Best Picture numbered among the 10 PGA contenders; only “Deadpool” was snubbed by the academy. The PGA prize went to “La La Land” while the Oscar was (eventually) won by “Moonlight.”

Oh yes it still hurts that Ben Affleck was not given a Best Director Oscar nomination, yet his fantastic film "Argo" continues its ascension to Oscar glory! The film took home the top prize at the Producers Guild of America Awards taking home the Darryl F. Zanuck Award for Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Motion Pictures.
So guess which film will win the Oscar Best Picture? Yup, it will be "Argo!" Why? Well, Hollywood really loves movies about them and "Argo" is about a movie of a fake movie in order to help free some Americans trapped in Iran during the hostage crisis.
And, the PGA award is a significant Academy Awards precursor. Only seven times in 24 years has the PGA winner failed to win a Best Picture Oscar. So "Argo" has a strong chance.
I'm also happy that "Searching for Sugar Man" won the Documentary category, and not so happy...

The Producers Guild of America has announced its nominations for best productions of the year, in what is often looked to as an indicator for how the Academy Awards may go.
The guild selected 10 films — most of them common guesses for the group that could make up the Oscar list of the best films of 2012: Argo, Lincoln, Les Misérables, among others.
The one surprise: Skyfall. No 007 film has ever cracked the Best Picture list, but if this nomination is any indication, that could change when the Oscar nods are revealed Jan. 10.
