Valerie Cherish is finally getting her "it" back. HBO has released the first trailer for the third and final season of The Comeback, confirming that Lisa Kudrow will return to her iconic role on March 22, 2026. The mockumentary series, co-created by Kudrow and Michael Patrick King, will air weekly on HBO and stream on Max, leading up to a series finale on May 10, 2026.

The new footage reveals Valerie’s latest attempt at a Hollywood resurgence: a starring role in an experimental sitcom titled How's That?! In a sharp satirical twist on current industry trends, the show within the show is scripted entirely by artificial intelligence. The trailer features Valerie struggling to navigate the nonsensical logic of AI-generated punchlines while the ever-present camera crew documents the chaos.

This final chapter arrives over a decade after the show’s second season debuted in 2014. The eight-episode run is expected to provide a definitive conclusion to Valerie’s decades-long quest for relevance.
