The Obamas and Larry take on U.S. history, unprepared.
Larry David is trading his beekeeping gloves for a history book, teaming up with Barack and Michelle Obama for a hilarious HBO sketch series celebrating America’s 250th birthday.
The Curb Your Enthusiasm legend will executive produce, write, and star in the six-episode limited series under the Obamas’ Higher Ground Productions, promising a mix of sharp wit and absurdity.
In classic David fashion, his statement joked about abandoning his “simple life as a beekeeper” (after a “violent allergic reaction to foam party suds”) to return to TV.
Meanwhile, Obama quipped that even global diplomacy “couldn’t prepare me for working with Larry David.”
The untitled project, co-written by Curb showrunner Jeff Schaffer, marks David’s HBO comeback after the show’s finale last year.
With the Obamas’ track record, from Oscar-winning docs to quirky kids’ shows, this collab is set to skewer U.S. history like never before.
No premiere date yet, but expect chaos when it lands in 2026.
