It was only a matter of time before Larry David hung up his comedic spikes. And sadly, that time is now: the upcoming season of “Curb Your Enthusiasm” will also be the final one of the HBO hit. But the show that started as a one-off mockumentary special has had quite the run. It’s nabbed 47 Emmy nods over its first eleven seasons, making David comedic TV royalty at this point.

“Larry David remembers everything” is the logline to “The Larry David Story,” a two-part documentary from HBO debuting on HBO and HBO Max on Tuesday, March 1. That seems to be a pretty perfect summation. David is not only a good raconteur, but his whole career also seems built around perceived slights, supposed snubs, and a bottled-up litany of those who he feels have insulted, rebuffed, offended, or transgressed against him—all in a pretty delightfully comedic way (though results may vary?

“It was Bob’s world; we’re only living in it.” That’s the overall sentiment of “The Super Bob Einstein” movie. Who? Well, you should probably remember the Sahara dry comedian Super Dave Osborne, right? He was the alter-ego of comedian Bob Einstein, playing a naïve but optimistic stuntman who was frequently gravely injured when his stunts went spectacularly wrong. Comedy always ensued. From the 7’0s to the ’90s, Super Dave appeared everywhere, Johnny Carson, his own show, and was always a recurring guest on David Letterman.

“Curb Your Enthusiasm” has been going for ten seasons with season eleven on the way. As Larry David would say, that’s pretty, pretty, pretty good. Or, he might say, as he does in the new season eleven official trailer, “I hate people individually, but I love mankind.” The Emmy and Golden Globe-winning comedy series starring the always cantankerous and peculiar David, returns for its ten-episode, eleventh season Sunday, October 24 at 10:40pm ET (a time so specific, it seems tailored to one of David’s competing watching habits), with new episodes airing subsequent Sundays at 10:30 p.m.

It’s hard to find a TV series that still generates as much excitement after a decade as “Curb Your Enthusiasm.” Most series begin to sputter out well before Season 11, but the HBO comedy series is seemingly more popular than ever before, as it prepares for its latest batch of episodes that arrive next month.

As seen in the teaser for Season 11 of “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” HBO is proud to note that even though the world has changed since Season 10 ended its run in early 2020, Larry David still hasn’t.

Folks, I don’t know about you, but after watching the new teaser for “Seinfeld,” I think Netflix has a new hit on its hands. Clearly, the streaming service thinks so, as it is set to debut not one, but nine seasons of the sitcom all at once in October.

Obviously, this is all a bit of a joke, as “Seinfeld” is a classic sitcom that has been lauded as one of the best ever since its debut in the early ‘90s.

Larry David has made a career out of taking everyday occurrences and turning them into fodder for sitcoms. That may sound really easy and obvious, but many have tried and many have failed. In the case of David, he not only did it once, with the legendary series “Seinfeld,” but he’s already done it a second time, with his HBO hit, “Curb Your Enthusiasm.” Needless to say, Larry David is your guy, if you’re looking for someone to give a funny take on a current event or situation.

You know things are getting bad when the California Governor’s office is able to rope Larry David in to do a PSA about the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic. But hey, times are tough and the “Curb Your Enthusiasm” star isn’t above doing something for the common good.

The Emmys have some real drama on the line when it comes to Lead Actor in a Comedy Series. Bill Hader of “Barry” repeated last year, but that HBO series has been delayed due to production being suspended because of the coronavirus pandemic. That leaves a window for “Schitt’s Creek’s” Eugene Levy (a previous winner only in the writing category), “Ramy’s” Ramy Youssef, and, maybe, “The Kominsky Method’s” Michael Douglas thanks to the fact more people have watched the latter thanks to Netflix.

It’s crazy to think that next year, “Curb Your Enthusiasm” will have been going for 20 years. When it arrived in 2000, two years after the finale of “Seinfeld,” the show—created by Larry David, the co-creator of “Seinfeld“— was met with open arms, a kind of hallelujah to the return of situational comedy. “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” however, went beyond the peculiar comedy of Jerry Seinfeld, morphing into something darker, and what became known as cringe comedy.

In-between playing Bernie Sanders on “Saturday Night Live,” Larry David was still working on his irreverent comedy, “Curb Your Enthusiasm.” Two years after the ninth season ended, HBO has finally revealed the first teaser for season 10.

First, it was “The Office.” Then came the news that “Friends” is leaving. And now, Netflix is looking at a future without its two biggest TV series. But hey, you can’t count the streaming service out just yet, thanks to the seemingly limitless bank account, as Netflix has just announced that it has secured the worldwide streaming rights to what might be the best sitcom of all time — “Seinfeld.”

The new deal allows Netflix to be the exclusive worldwide home to “Seinfeld” beginning in 2021 when the current deal with Hulu expires.

“Atlanta’s” Donald Glover should repeat in this category after winning last year, but the Television Academy loved “Barry” more than anyone expected.  That means a Bill Hader win is absolutely in play for a potential upset. [Updated July 17]

“Paulie may have moved slow, but it was only because Paulie didn’t have to move for anybody,” Henry Hill says in “Goodfellas” regarding the dominant mob boss in that film played by Paul Sorvino. Yet it could pretty much apply to Larry David. He’s consistently made seasons of the fabled series “Curb Your Enthusiasm” at his own pace. But after season eight in 2011, he essentially walked away, but always kept the door open in case he wanted to return.
