Curb your enthusiasm.

Jerry, Elaine, George and Kramer will return to the small screen after 11 years -- but not for an actual "Seinfeld" reunion show.

"Seinfeld" co-creator Larry David wants the characters to appear together in the seventh season finale of his latest comedy, HBO's "Curb Your Enthusiasm."

David says the "Seinfeld" stars signed up for five "Curb" episodes during the season in a storyline about the cast reuniting. He says he worked closely with Seinfeld on the show-within-a-show script.

It marks the first time in 11 years that Jerry Seinfeld, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Jason Alexander and Michael Richards have appeared together on screen.

David told a meeting of the Television Critics Association the on-screen reunion of the "Seinfeld" cast will be "tough to beat."

Here's hoping they bring the catchphrases.
