A faux Seinfeld reunion boosted HBO's Curb Your Enthusiasm Sunday, October 4. The comedy drew 1.6 million viewers at 9 p.m., its best numbers in five years. When the 10 p.m. re-airing is included, Curb drew 2.6 million viewers for the night.

Entourage also had a strong night, with its sixth season finale drawing 2.5 million viewers at 10 p.m. That is up 21% when compared to the season five finale in 2008.
Entourage drew 3 million viewers when the replay is factored in, and is averaging a gross audience of 8.5 million viewers an episode, the most for any season of the comedy so far.
