The American television sitcom Curb Your Enthusiasm premiered with an hour-long special on HBO on October 17, 1999. It was followed by a ten-episode first season that began airing on October 15, 2000.

The series was created by Larry David, who stars as a fictionalized version of himself. The series follows Larry in his life as a well-off, semi-retired television writer and producer in Los Angeles. Also starring are Cheryl Hines as his wife, Cheryl; Jeff Garlin as his best friend and manager, Jeff; Susie Essman as Jeff's wife, Susie; and J. B. Smoove as Larry's housemate, Leon. Curb Your Enthusiasm features many celebrity guest star appearances, fictionalized to varying degrees.

In August 2022, the series was renewed for a twelfth and final season, that premiered on February 4, 2024.

Series overview

Episodes

Pilot (1999)

Season 1 (2000)

The first season introduces Larry's post-Seinfeld world, where he is wealthy, has a loving wife and a best friend, and manages to offend many people around him.

Guest stars include: Ted Danson, Paul Dooley, Wayne Federman, Kathy Griffin, Richard Lewis, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Brad Hall, Laraine Newman, Bob Odenkirk, Julie Payne, Mary Steenburgen, Wanda Sykes, Nia Vardalos, Lisa Ann Walter, and Lucy Webb.

Season 2 (2001)

Larry David pursues a new television project, first with Jason Alexander, and then Julia Louis-Dreyfus after Jason offends him. Based on Alexander's frustration with his own post-Seinfeld career/life, the premise is about an actor who starred in a megahit sitcom who finds himself typecast. Larry pitches the idea to various networks, but eventually alienates or offends everyone he makes a deal with, and anyone else attached to the project.

Season 3 (2002)

Main article: Curb Your Enthusiasm season 3

Larry joins a restaurant venture with a group of investors; among them are Ted Danson and Michael York. A few subplots involve Larry being cast in a Martin Scorsese movie; an on-again, off-again feud with Stu and Susan Braudy; and Larry getting a pubic hair stuck in his throat.

Season 4 (2004)

Larry works with Mel Brooks, Ben Stiller, Cady Huffman and David Schwimmer to star on Broadway in The Producers. Larry struggles to fulfill his wife's tenth anniversary present to him—a one-time-only act of adultery.

Unused footage of Dodger Stadium was used to exonerate Juan Catalan from a charge of murder by the district attorney by giving him an alibi during the time the murder was committed. A short Netflix documentary, Long Shot, was made about the incident.

Season 5 (2005)

Larry's friend Richard needs a kidney transplant operation. Under pressure from his friends and family, Larry offers to donate his own kidney to Richard. Larry then makes concerted efforts to find Richard another kidney donor. Larry thinks that he may have been adopted, because of a potentially misunderstood word his father said (and subsequently denies) while in the hospital, and hires a private investigator (Mekhi Phifer) to look into it.

Season 6 (2007)

Cheryl and Larry shelter a New Orleans family named the Blacks (Vivica A. Fox, J. B. Smoove and Ellia English), who move into their house after a hurricane destroyed the Blacks' home. A distracted phone call between Larry and Cheryl causes her to re-evaluate their marriage dynamic and leave him; Larry thus returns to the dating scene.

Guest stars include: Steve Coogan, Michael McKean, Lucy Lawless, Tim Meadows, Mayim Bialik, Gina Gershon, John McEnroe, Barbara Boxer, John Legend, Diedrich Bader, and Ken Jeong.

Season 7 (2009)

Larry and Loretta are in a relationship, which Larry soon realizes is not working for him. She is diagnosed with cancer and breaks up with Larry because she thinks he is cheating on her. She and the rest of the family leave Larry's home—except for Leon, who stays with him. When Larry runs into Cheryl for the first time since last season, he learns that she appreciated him more when he had a job, so he accepts NBC's offer for a Seinfeld reunion show to give her a part in it and win her back.

Guest stars include: Jason Alexander, Eric Andre, Jillian Bell, Wayne Federman, Philip Baker Hall, Richard Kind, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Rosie O'Donnell, Catherine O'Hara, Randall Park, Michael Richards, Meg Ryan, Jerry Seinfeld, Elisabeth Shue, Christian Slater, and David Spade.

Andy Ackerman (Seinfeld segment)

Season 8 (2011)

Larry finalizes his divorce from Cheryl and enjoys life as a single man. In order to avoid a charity gig, he goes with Jeff and Susie on a three-month trip to New York City, where he soon reunites with Leon.

Guest stars include: Ricky Gervais, Rosie O'Donnell, Michael J. Fox, Gary Cole, Larry Miller, Harry Hamlin, Michael McKean, Amy Landecker, Ana Gasteyer, and Michael Bloomberg.

The unstable seat in Larry's car causes Jennifer (Ana Gasteyer) to have an orgasm. Larry later discovers that Dr. Thurgood billed him for their conversation at the signing event, and confronts him at his office to no avail. Leon, wearing glasses, manages to convince Dr. Thurgood to drop the bill and steals his Mookie Wilson-autographed ball and gives it to Larry. Susie asks Larry to give her a ride to her cousin's burning building, causing her to have an orgasm in front of a disgusted Larry before the car crashes into a Mister Softee truck. At the burning building, a trapped woman is forced to throw her baby out of the window, and a passerby Bill Buckner makes a diving catch to save the baby and is hailed as a hero.

Season 9 (2017)

Larry incurs a fatwa from the Supreme Leader of Iran, Ayatollah Abdullah Kazemeyni, after lampooning the Ayatollahs while appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live! to promote his latest, long-awaited project, a comedy musical called Fatwa!, centered on The Satanic Verses controversy, in which Ayatollah Khomeini ordered a fatwa against Salman Rushdie in 1989.

Season 10 (2020)

Larry is accused of sexual harassment by his assistant Alice and his attempts to control the situation only serve to make things worse. At the same time, Larry intends to open his own coffee shop, which he calls a spite store, right next to Mocha Joe's out of spite, regarding petty grievances.

(HBO)

Season 11 (2021)

After a burglar drowns in Larry's pool, the police inform Larry he must have a 5 ft fence around his pool. The burglar's brother, Marcos, extorts Larry by threatening to sue him, unless Larry casts Marcos' daughter, Maria Sofia, in his new Netflix show about himself in his 20s. Maria Sofia lacks acting skills, so Larry seeks to have the fence law changed. He does so by beginning a relationship with an unattractive, unpleasant councilwoman, so he can eject Maria Sofia from his show. Leon breaks up with his girlfriend Mary Ferguson after purchasing non-refundable plane tickets to Asia for the pair. Leon tries to find another woman with the same name to replace his ex on the trip.

Season 12 (2024)
