Obamas, Larry David Produce HBO American History Comedy Series

Larry David is returning to HBO with a new six-episode American history sketch comedy series co-produced with Barack and Michelle Obama's Higher Ground production company, timed to coincide with the 250th anniversary of the United States. David, who will star, write, and executive produce the untitled series, reunites with his longtime collaborator Jeff Schaffer, who will also direct and co-write. The project aims to blend historical education with David's signature humor and features a mix of familiar 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' actors and other notable stars. Barack Obama humorously remarked on the challenge of working with David, emphasizing the unique nature of their collaboration. The series marks David's first major TV project since the conclusion of 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' in 2024, with the release expected around 2026. David's playful statement about returning to television after a brief retreat to beekeeping reflects the comedic tone anticipated for the show.
