The Comeback is an American television comedy-drama series produced by HBO that stars actress Lisa Kudrow as sitcom actress Valerie Cherish in modern-day Los Angeles, California. It was created by Kudrow and Michael Patrick King, a former executive producer of Sex and the City. Kudrow and King are also screenwriters and executive producers of the series, with King also serving as the director of some episodes. The series premiered on HBO on June 5, 2005 and aired for a single, 13-episode season before being canceled. The series was revived nine years later and an eight-episode second season started airing on HBO on November 9, 2014.
The show, a satirical, comedic look inside the entertainment television industry, is shot by a two-camera crew. Season One is presented as found footage shot for the fictional reality show within The Comeback, also called The Comeback. Season Two is presented as found footage shot by a camera crew originally commissioned by Valerie to pitch a pilot to noted reality TV producer Andy Cohen, later repurposed as behind the scenes web content, and then into a full-scale documentary.

When AI churns out an unstable script, Valerie is forced to lean into her executive producer role to do damage control.
Faced with a new and unqualified showrunner, Valerie does everything she can to save the day and keep her show afloat - even if it means making a deal with a very familiar devil from her showbiz past...all to Jane's disapproval.
As Mark heads off to Burning Man, Valerie finds herself alone amid a media meltdown after news of her AI written show is somehow leaked to the public. Later, Val is further shocked to discover that a member of her team has not signed the studio's NDA.
Valerie tries to repair the damage caused by negative AI press -- and save Mark's reality show job by making an appearance on Finance Dudes.
