From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Earlier in the year, Larry David mischievously waved a “next season notebook” under the nose of the president of HBO, who has pretty much given David a carte blanche to make new Curb Your Enthusiasm episodes anytime he wants.
The fact that he has a ton of notes for a potential season 9 was a good sign, but far from confirmation that fictionalised Larry would be returning to our screens.
It seems the idea of a comeback is lingering with David though, who apparently has this week been discussing a new season and possibly a movie with Curb director Jeff Schaffer.
Radio host and friend of Schaffer, Chris Law, tweeted:
It's very encouraging news that David is courting his old collaborator with regards to new episodes, and maybe if I keep writing enough of these damn stories HBO will finally get the wheels in motion.
Though David has been coy about the prospect of new Curb, the show is definitely not out of his system.
Last year, HBO president Michael Lombardo asked him if he should ”emotionally get Curb out of [his] head," to which the Seinfeld creator replied: "No, no, no, no, no."
