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

Insert "pretty, pretty, pretty good," joke here.

In "Curb Your Enthusiasm," David plays an over-the-top version of himself who gets involved in an inconceivable number of awkward situations. With 80 episodes to its credit, the show is HBO's longest-running program. David is backed up by series regulars Jeff Garlin, Cheryl Hines, Susie Essman, Richard Lewis and J.B. Smoove. The show has drawn some of the biggest stars as guest actors such as Ricky Gervais, Ben Stiller and the entire "Seinfeld" cast.
