Curb Your Enthusiasm is finally making its return to HBO after almost two years off the air. The show, which stars comedian Larry David (who was recently seen in Woody Allen's Whatever Works), will return for a seventh season on September 20, 2009. The show, one of HBO's best known comedies, was thought to be unofficially cancelled after the sixth season finale, which aired in November 2007.
But there's another reason to watch Curb Your Entusiasm when it returns this fall. A reunion of the Seinfeld cast is in order, the LA Times reported. The four stars of the popular '90s sitcom Seinfeld, which David co-created, will be appearing together on television for the first time in a very long while.
Jerry Seinfeld, Julia Louis-Dreyfuss, Jason Alexander, and Michael Richards will all appear for several episodes of the show. Seinfeld will appear for five episodes, while the other three will only appear in four episodes. According to Larry David, "The season finale will be about the reunion show. It could very well be [a one-hour episode], but I haven't finished editing it yet. But that's a good possibility."
It's not the first time that the cast of Seinfeld has been featured on Enthusiasm, but it is the first time they've been featured together. Seinfeld appeared in the fourth season finale of the show, while Louis-Dreyfuss and Alexander appeared in the second season. Whatever the case, Enthusiasm looks to be just as irreverent and self-referential as its previous six seasons.
Not that there's anything wrong with that.
