HBO’s comedy series ‘The Comeback’ starring ‘Friends’ star Lisa Kudrow returns as a new six-episode limited series this fall.
Kudrow is embattled Valerie Cherish, a fading TV “It Girl” who was once so desperate to stay in the spotlight that she allowed cameras to follow her every move as she appeared on a new sitcom – with disastrous results.
Once a pioneer of reality television, it’s now ten years later – there’s more TV than ever and she wants back in.
“It was almost too fun to play Valerie Cherish the first time around,” said Kudrow. “I look forward to revisiting this resilient and ironically self-unaware character.”
Executive produced by Michael Patrick King of “Sex and the City” Kudrow, and her producing partner Dan Bucatinsky of “Scandal”.
