Debuting in October 2000, Curb Your Enthusiasm has been a platform for creator and star Larry David to highlight everyday indignations and relatively small grievances that tend to spiral out of control.

Throughout its run, the series has garnered critical acclaim, won two Emmys, and even staged a reunion of Larry David's iconic sitcom, Seinfeld. The show has also served as a vehicle for a bevy of celebrity guests, adding to its allure and entertainment value.

Despite the frequent teasing of the end of the show, Larry David confirmed Curb's season 12 farewell in a statement back in December, marking the end of an era for the HBO comedy.

The Trailer and What It Reveals

The trailer for Curb Your Enthusiasm season 12, released by Max, offers a glimpse into the final season without shedding light on the overarching story. It showcases the lead character's consistent behavior, as he picks fights with Susie and spars with frequent guest Ted Danson.

A surprising twist in the trailer shows that Larry is actually happy, a revelation that even surprises the character himself. The trailer also indicates that the final season will premiere on Sunday, February 4 at 10 PM ET on HBO, with new episodes available to stream on Max weekly leading up to the series finale on April 7.

What to Expect in the Final Season

Several familiar faces will return for Curb Your Enthusiasm season 12, including Susie, JB Smoove as Larry's friend Leon Black, and Cheryl Hines, who has recurred since her character split from Larry in season 7. The trailer also reveals the surprising return of Irma Kostroski (played by Tracey Ullman), who uniquely repulsed Larry in the previous season.

In addition to the returning cast, Curb Your Enthusiasm season 12 will continue the tradition of welcoming celebrity guests, with appearances from Conan O’Brien, Sienna Miller, Oscar winner Troy Kotsur, Steve Buscemi, and Schitt's Creek alum Dan Levy. The final season promises to stay true to the show's essence and entertain fans until the very end.
