The actress was recently asked if she would want to make a new season of the HBO comedy and said she talks about it with the show’s co-creator, Michael Patrick King.
“Oh God, I’d love to. Michael Patrick King and I are always talking about what would happen next. Always,” Kudrow said in an interview with Newsweek . “And it’s been 9, 10 years now. So, we’re due.”
Kudrow said she was “thrilled” that The Comeback still gets recognized even after so many years.
“I’m just thrilled and adore anyone who has the level of appreciation for The Comeback that meets the level of pride I have for doing that show. That is thrilling. I’m happy to hear that,” she said.

Kudrow and King created The Comeback for HBO back in 2005. The mockumentary about a former sitcom star staging her television comeback was a critical darling but was axed by the premium cable network after one season.
Throughout the years after its cancellation, the show gained a cult following, and HBO gave it a second chance in 2014, ordering a new season of the comedy.
Nine years passed between the first and second season, and 2024 marks the 10th year since the series ended its second season run on HBO.
In 2022, Kudrow discussed a potential third season, telling The Daily Beast , “I don’t think we’re gonna make it! Not make it ever, but I don’t think we’re gonna make it in nine years. We also don’t know if HBO wants it, by the way. But we haven’t asked. We’re both sort of like, ‘I’m not gonna ask, are you?’ ‘No, I don’t want to hear ‘no.” It’s something we love so much. That’s why it took nine years the first time!”
