The show had an awkward, blackly hilarious tone that was a hit with critics and the Emmys, but failed to find much of an audience. Nine years later, in 2014, it returned for a masterly second season in which Valerie \u2013 now playing herself in a gritty HBO dramatisation of the events of season one, and filming the whole thing as an audition tape for The Real Housewives \u2013 confronts her failing marriage and relationships.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/tv-and-radio\/2026\/apr\/01\/michael-patrick-king-the-comeback-ai-twist-lisa-kudrow\">Continue reading&#8230;<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/tv-and-radio\/2026\/apr\/01\/michael-patrick-king-the-comeback-ai-twist-lisa-kudrow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"feedzy-rss-link-icon\">Read More<\/a><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.guim.co.uk\/img\/media\/db7782d7e93dbe5d4bbd710f76fc965e8282ebf4\/886_114_4857_3886\/master\/4857.jpg?width=140&amp;quality=85&amp;auto=format&amp;fit=max&amp;s=8b606c41b61cf401781769a3e373f1a7\" title=\"\u2018We got cancelled and we\u2019re still here!\u2019 Michael Patrick King on The Comeback \u2013 and why And Just Like That will age well\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Could AI write an entire sitcom series?
