HBO will play host to a transatlantic collision of awkward comedy and slightly fictionalized personae next year when Ricky Gervais guest stars on the eighth season of Curb Your Enthusiasm. As per the show’s usual secrecy, there have been no details about what will happen next season, or what exactly Gervais will be doing there, other than turning up as himself for at least one episode and, presumably, having an uneasy relationship with Larry David that [spoiler alert] probably starts off friendly and quickly turns contentious over some perceived slight or mishandling of a social convention.
