Long live Valerie Cherish. HBO and Lisa Kudrow delighted fans with a surprise announcement of The ComebackSeason 3 on Friday, June 27. Now, HBO has revealed that Andrew Scott has been cast in Season 3, set to premiere this spring.
The Comeback stars Kudrow as Valerie Cherish, a former sitcom star who attempts to revive her career by starring in a reality show that documents her return to television as a supporting character on a new series. Twenty years after the first season debuted on June 5, 2005, and 10 years after Season 2 on November 9, 2014, HBO announced the original comedy series from Michael Patrick King (And Just Like That…) and Kudrow will make one last run.
“Valerie Cherish has found her way back to the current television landscape. Neither of us are surprised she did,” King and Kudrow said in a joint statement on Friday. In Season 3, Valerie has another new show, and she’s not too thrilled about promoting it.
“This is the last one, all right? Last time. Never doing this again,” Kudrow (as Valerie) tells her director before the slate claps in The Comeback Season 3 teaser above. “Well, I’ve got a new show. How’s that? And I’m so excited about it,” she tries to say convincingly, only getting more annoyed when the director asks for more.
In Season 3, Valerie stars in the first TV sitcom ever written by AI. That’ll go well. Here are all the details on The Comeback Season 3.
When does The Comeback Season 3 premiere?
The third and final season will debut in March 2026 on HBO and HBO Max. An exact premiere date will be announced at a later time. Get your first look at Kudrow in Season 3 below.
Scott will play the head of a studio in the comedy, HBO announced during a programming slate presentation in London on Wednesday, December 3. Character details have not yet been revealed for O’Brien or Stiller, but Bagley and Cook previously appeared in minor roles as Frank and Ivan in Season 2. However, it is unclear if the duo will reprise those roles or step into new ones. Deadline broke the news on August 21.
“No matter what the industry throws at her, Valerie Cherish is a survivor,” Amy Gravitt, executive vice president of HBO and Max comedy programming, said on June 27. “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.”
The Comeback is created by King and Kudrow, who executive produce alongside John Melfi and Dan Bucatinsky.
