The end is nigh. With the series finale of FXX’s The League airing tonight, creator Jeff Schaffer spoke to TVLine about the end of the series and what he hopes fans get out of it.
The semi-improvised comedy, which stars Nick Kroll, Paul Scheer, Jon Lajoie, Mark Duplass, Stephen Rannazzisi, and Kate Aselton as members of a fantasy football league, first premiered on FX in 2009.
Speaking to TVLine, Schaffer said the finale will feel “like any other episode of The League.” He also mentioned that while certain storylines will be wrapped up, he hopes the finale will have fans saying “‘I can’t wait to see what happens,’ or, ‘I have to see another one.’”
The finale will see the return of Shiva, Paulie Litt’s The Oracle, and “the coolest guest star we’ve ever had on the show,” Schaffer said. Word is that guest star will be none other that Curb Your Enthusiasm‘s Larry David.
The season finale airs tonight on FXX and will be a full 30 minutes long, instead of the normal 22. Schaffer mentioned that an extended, hour-long version of the finale will be available at some point.
