HBO's 'Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness' Announces Episode 6 Date, Explains Episode 4 Ending

The limited HBO series "Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness" will air its sixth episode on July 31, 2026, with the season finale following on August 7, 2026. New installments continue to be broadcast on HBO in the United States at 10 p.m. ET/PT and become available shortly after on the Max streaming service.

Episode 4 concluded with a satirical sketch in which a character named Bobby is escorted to a psychiatric hospital after making increasingly out‑of‑place anti‑vaccine remarks. The scene is set in Queens in 1955, amidst Jonas Salk's work on the polio vaccine, and the character is presented as a parody of public‑health skeptic Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The sketch links historical vaccine development to contemporary debates.

Both pieces reflect the series' blend of historical re‑imagining and Larry David’s trademark comedic commentary.
