After 11 seasons of laughs, surprise guest stars and relatable minor moments that snowball into bigger things, Curb Your Enthusiasm season 12 sees the comedy series come to a close.

For many fans of Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm (both series are on What to Watch’s 100 best TV shows of all time), has been an amazing follow-up for Larry David, who created the classic 90s sitcom with comedian Jerry Seinfeld.

So what can fans of Curb Your Enthusiasm look forward to in the final season? Here’s everything we know.

Curb Your Enthusiasm season 12 release date

Curb Your Enthusiasm plot

Here is the synopsis of the series:

"Starring Larry David as an over-the-top version of himself, the iconic Emmy and Golden Globe-winning comedy series Curb Your Enthusiasm offers a tongue-in-cheek depiction of the writer/producer/comedian’s fictionalized life. The comedy series continues to prove how seemingly trivial details of one's day-to-day life can precipitate a catastrophic chain of events. To keep the narrative spontaneous, the series is shot without a script and cast members are given scene outlines and improvise lines as they go."
