20 Best TV Shows of 2026 (So Far)
4. The Comeback (Season 3)
After a nine-year gap between The Comeback's first and second seasons, Lisa Kudrow and Michael Patrick King's brutally honest cringe comedy has finally returned to end its run after an agonising 12-year wait.
A stunningly candid satire of the entertainment industry, The Comeback follows Kudrow as Valerie, a sitcom actress whose flagging career often leaves her despondent and desperate for work, who this time around innocently joins an AI TV show and must face the backlash.
Playing Valerie after over a decade away from the role gives Kudrow ample opportunity to dig into the growth she's gone through since we saw her last, allowing her at long last to have grown into something resembling a functioning adult - though she's as funny and self-destructive as ever.
Equally profound and savagely funny, The Comeback holds nothing back as Valerie grapples with her mistakes and contends with a changing Hollywood. If this is the end of her journey, then it's a perfect farewell, but honestly, who wouldn't want to see Kudrow again in another ten years, ready for more?
