CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM is one of my favourite shows of all times. In case you have lived under a huge rock -or in Europe, where this awesome show never got recognized- and you don't know what the fuck I'm talking about. Get a clue.

It's about LDs life after he became uber rich with SEINFELD and basically has nothing to do, but living his life in Hollywood and pissing off everybody around him. Sounds great, right? Anyways, the show is heading for it's seventh season this Fall (yes, you've been missing out a great show for over six years now) and EW has exklusive news on the new season. Check it out:

EW has learned exclusively that the four stars of NBC's long-running comedy -- Jerry Seinfeld, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Jason Alexander, and Michael Richards -- will be featured in a multiple-episode story arc on HBO's Curb Your Enthusiasm this fall. The cameos will mark the first time that all four actors have appeared together in a scripted TV show since Seinfeld went off the air nearly 11 years ago. [...]"
