Breaking Jewish News: Larry David Returning to HBO

We have some pretty, pretty, pretty good news: Larry David is coming back to HBO with a whole new season of “Curb Your Enthusiasm.”

The cable network announced plans for a ninth season of the award-winning show, five years after the last episode aired in 2011. We tried, but we just can’t contain ourselves.

“We’re thrilled that Larry has decided to do a new season of ‘Curb’ and can’t wait to see what he has planned,” Casey Bloys, the head of HBO programming, said in a statement released Tuesday.

Asked why he wanted to come back, David said, “In the immortal words of Julius Caesar, ‘I left, I did nothing, I returned.’”

Welcome back, Larry! How we have missed you, let us count the GIFs.

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.

In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.

At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.

Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we still need 300 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.

Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly. 

— Rachel Fishman Feddersen, Publisher and CEO
