HBO Revives 'The Comeback' for Third and Final Season

20 years after the first season debuted in 2005, and 10 years after season two, HBO has announced the revival of its original comedy series The Comeback for a third and final season. Production on the new episodes will begin this summer for a 2026 premiere.





Lisa Kudrow, Dan Bucatinsky, Laura Silverman and Damian Young will return as series regulars.

Kudrow co-created the comedy with Michael Patrick King. They executive produce with Bucatinsky and John Melfi.

"No matter what the industry throws at her, Valerie Cherish is a survivor," said Amy Gravitt, Executive Vice President, HBO & Max Comedy Programming. "On the 20th anniversary of her debut, Michael Patrick King and Lisa Kudrow have brilliantly scripted her return to HBO and we can't wait to see that."

"Valerie Cherish has found her way back to the current television landscape," added King and Kudrow. "Neither of us are surprised she did."
