Larry David Vows to Shed ‘Larry David’ Persona for Good
Well, it’s finally official. After 12 seasons spread over 24 years, Curb Your Enthusiasm will come to an end next year.
HBO announced on Thursday that the show’s 12th season, which is set to premiere on Feb. 4 and run for 10 episodes, will also be its last. The series finale will air on April 7.
“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,” creator and star Larry David said in a statement. “And so ‘Larry David,’ I bid you farewell. Your misanthropy will not be missed. And for those of you who would like to get in touch with me, you can reach me at Doctors Without Borders.”
