Major HBO Comedy Goes to Surprising Choice of Cable Networks in Syndication Deal TVWeek

One of the jewels in HBO's programming crown has been licensed in syndication to a surprising choice of not one, but two basic cable networks.

The show, "Curb Your Enthusiasm," which is now in its seventh season, will air first on TV Guide Network for a multi-year run starting in February. It will run on TV Land immediately following the TV Guide run.

Both networks will also acquire some of the broadband, wireless and video-on-demand rights for the show.

Previously TV  Guide network had acquired the cable syundication rights to "Ugly Betty" and "American Idol Rewind."
