The beloved golf ball reveal of Seinfeld‘s “Marine Biologist” episode almost never happened. Jerry Seinfeld revealed this week he and Larry David wrote the scene just hours before filming it, and actor Jason Alexander only had minutes to memorize the script.
“I don’t know the schedule that week, but let’s say we’re shooting it on Wednesday. It’s Tuesday,” Seinfeld said during an appearance on The Rich Eisen Show. “We don’t have the golf ball goes into the blowhole of the whale. We don’t have it — it was never in the script.”
In Seinfeld season 5, episode 14 (“The Marine Biologist”), Alexander’s George Costanza delivers an impressively long monologue about trying to impress a woman, in which he eventually reveals that Kramer’s (Michael Richards) golf ball got stuck in a whale’s blowhole. Famously, the speech begins with the line, “The sea was angry that day my friends.

Seinfeld has continued to live on after its 1998 series finale through syndication, maintaining its popularity. But decades after its end, some fans have been speculating about a possible Seinfeld reunion episode.
The comic and writer himself, Jerry Seinfeld, came close to making this a reality.

Back in the 2000s, Seinfeld was actually in the midst of penning a reunion special of his titular show. He was secretly working alongside many of his old cast members to make it happen. But the actors couldn’t finish the project in time, so it was scrapped indefinitely.
“I don’t think it can happen now. It would’ve had to happen because this [Seinfeld: The Complete Series) is the last DVD coming out, so now would’ve been the time to do it,” he once said according to Irish Examiner.
But there still might be hope that the Seinfeld cast might have some sort of TV reunion.

On July 5, 1989, “The Seinfeld Chronicles” premiered with a whimper on NBC. Created by Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David, it centered on the mundane life of a standup comedian and his eccentric friends. The self-proclaimed “show about nothing,” rebranded as “Seinfeld” when its remaining four first season episodes finally aired almost a year later in 1990, was championed by critics and ignored by audiences. Yet momentum continued to gain, and soon the series was dominating the ratings, collecting Emmys and entering the cultural lexicon with its popular catchphrases. Let’s take a look back at 30 of its greatest episodes, ranked worst to best.

It’s been more than a quarter of a century since Seinfeld ended its nine-season run on NBC, and Jerry Seinfeld says he’s “a little bit” bothered by how the sitcom ended.
In a new interview, the stand-up comic talks about the TV show finales that he thought were great and discussed how he was not completely satisfied with how the characters ended up in a jail cell.
“I don’t believe in regret. I think it’s arrogant to think you could have done something different. You couldn’t. That’s why you did what you did,” Seinfeld said in an interview with GQ Hype. “But me and Jeff Schaffer and Larry were standing around, talking about TV finales and which we thought were great. I feel Mad Men was the greatest. A lot of people like the Bob Newhart one. Mary Tyler Moore was okay.”

Julia Louis-Dreyfus is opening up about being recognized as her Seinfeld character, Elaine, while in labor.
For this week’s episode of the actress’ podcast, Wiser Than Me, she sat down with Ina Garten to talk about the cook’s longtime career. Toward the end of the conversation, the women discussed how, in their respective careers, people sometimes expect them to be like their onscreen personas and feel like they know them.
“I think particularly with television, with computer, I should say, I mean everybody’s watching it on all these other devices. But you’re in their home,” Louis-Dreyfus told Garten, pointing out that she probably has a similar experience with her show. “You’re in their home so they feel relaxed with your presence,” she continued, as Garten added, “And they feel like you’re a friend.”

One of the biggest TV shows in the history of entertainment, Seinfeld is still as famous as ever. Created and starring Jerry Seinfeld as a fictional character, it was the series’ witty writing and impeccable comedic timing that made it as popular as it is now. No less than a phenomenon, the series eventually inspired a bunch of lingo and even a curse.

Coined after the extremely famous lead actors of the hit NBC show failed to have any successful shows following the end of Seinfeld, the Seinfeld curse is a term specifically used to refer to the feats of the three Seinfeld actors- Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Jason Alexander, and Michael Richards following the end of the show. And among them all Louis-Dreyfus fought particularly hard to break it, only for her show to brutally crash.

Jerry Seinfeld’s sitcom was born out of the comedian’s humiliating exit from another popular sitcom at the time, Benson. He was fired from the series without prior notice due to the creative differences between him and the producer. Seinfeld, the sitcom that he created, continues to entertain the new generation of viewers with its dead-pan humor and striking one-liners.

Jerry Seinfeld is one of the most distinguished standup comics and has been active since the late ‘70s. The actor-writer is known for his timeless sitcom Seinfeld, which is often considered to be one of the greatest comedies on TV. The show ran for nine seasons and has often been regarded as the defining sitcom of the era.

Even though Seinfeld is one of the most iconic sitcoms of all time, it is also known as one of the most controversial. Having been created decades ago, it is only natural that the series was a product of its time, and its portrayal of certain minorities would not be up to the standards that Hollywood is held to today.

It’s pretty sad! HBO’s twelve-season run of Larry David’s Curb Your Enthusiasm has officially ended after 120 fairly well-executed episodes. It has become difficult to distinguish between the real Larry David and the TV character because the co-creator of Seinfeld has made a career out of playing an exaggerated version of himself.
Curb Your Enthusiasm’s long-awaited, 53-minute series finale offers fans even more laughs, some well-timed cameos, and a hint at another finale that fans may have been predicting since the season’s opening episode.

And, that’s a wrap on Larry David’s Curb Your Enthusiasm.
The series finale of the Emmy-winning HBO improv comedy kicked off with a big circle back to how the final season began, with the ensemble heading to Atlanta to support Larry David (played by series creator-star David) in his trial.
For a refresher: Season 12 opened with Larry getting arrested for violating a 2021 voting law in Georgia when he gave Leon Black’s (Jb Smoove) Auntie Rae (played by Ellia English) a glass of water while she was waiting in line to vote. Larry didn’t know about the law, but he became a liberal hero anyway, with the likes of Stacey Abrams, Bruce Springsteen and Sienna Miller becoming his adoring new fans.

Curb Your Enthusiasm is gearing up for its grand farewell on April 7, and Larry David could end the show in the funniest way possible if the finale follows in the footsteps of another one of his series. Apart from being known for the HBO improvisational comedy, Larry David is best known for co-creating the NBC hit Seinfeld, which aired for nine seasons from 1989 to 1998. In that show’s divisive finale, Jerry (Jerry Seinfeld), Elaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus), George (Jason Alexander), and Kramer (Michael Richards) end up in jail. Considering that Larry’s facing a trial for handing out water to individuals on voting lines in Georgia, he could very well end up in a similar position as his characters from Seinfeld, if he so chooses.

Jerry Seinfeld’s self-titled sitcom Seinfeld remains to this day one of the most successful, not to mention lucrative, sitcoms in television history. Seinfeld co-created the show with Larry David, and starred alongside Jason Alexander, Julia-Lois-Dreyfus and Michael Richards. It followed the trivial goings on in the life of the comedian and his friends.
The shadow of the self proclaimed ‘show about nothing’ still looms large over the American sitcom landscape, with David going on to create and star in Curb Your Enthusiasm. In season 7, David wrote a Seinfeld reunion story arc, culminating in footage from a new episode. The final episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm airs on Sky Atlantic next month.

Just what you are thinking about, Larry and I have also been thinking about. So, you’ll see.” The world has been buzzing about the possibility of a Seinfeld revival ever since. It’s been over 30 years since the misadventures of Jerry, Elaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus), George (Jason Alexander), and Kramer (Michael Richards) and Seinfeld is still considered one of the benchmarks of comedy.

Television as both a medium and as an industry has changed significantly in just the past couple of decades alone. The production of so-called prestige shows, with blockbusters like "Game of Thrones" earning feature-length budgets, have completely blurred the lines between TV and cinema -- and, what's more, an entire generation of fans have been raised to believe that this is simply how it's done. But once upon a time, even the most successful shows had to fight and scrap and claw for every inch they could take. That goes double for the ever-popular genre of crime procedurals, which were practically designed to last as many years as possible with the absolute least amount of resources.
Fox's hit series "Bones" was certainly no exception, spanning 12 total seasons and almost 250 overall episodes. But despite constant ratings performances, the show's production team routinely needed to find savvy, cost-cutting measures to wring the...

Curb Your Enthusiasm has come to an end after twenty four years, writer and star Larry David has confirmed.
Of all the sitcoms in the history of television, few, if any, have come anywhere near the level of cringe inducing awkwardness seen in Larry David’s long running sitcom Curb Your Enthusiasm.
Playing a version of himself, David, forever deadpan and defiant, manages to break just about every social convention there is as he attempts to go about his life as a successful television writer. Starring alongside David were Jeff Garlin, Cheryl Hines, Susie Essman and J.B. Smoove.
Curb is also notable for its wide array of memorable guest turns, which have included Mel Brooks, Martin Scorsese, Ben Stiller, Christian Slater, Rosie O’Donnell, Michael J. Fox, Ricky Gervais, Lin-Manuel Miranda, F. Murray Abraham and David Schwimmer.

“Curb Your Enthusiasm” is officially ending with Season 12, which premieres Feb. 4 at 10 p.m. on HBO and Max. The 10-episode season will conclude with a series finale on April 7.
You might be thinking: Isn’t every season of “Curb” potentially its last? While this is sorta true — the series has long operated with an open invitation from HBO and without a strict timeline — the cable network is, for the first time, definitively promoting the next batch of episodes as Larry David’s “final season.”
“As ‘Curb’ comes to an end, I will now have the opportunity to finally shed this ‘Larry David’ persona and become the person God intended me to be – the thoughtful, kind, caring, considerate human being I was until I got derailed by portraying this malignant character,” David said in a statement. “And so ‘Larry David,’ I bid you farewell.

“As ‘Curb’ comes to an end, I will now have the opportunity to finally shed this ‘Larry David’ persona and become the person God intended me to be – the thoughtful, kind, caring, considerate human being I was until I got derailed by portraying this malignant character,” David said in a statement. “And so ‘Larry David,’ I bid you farewell. Your misanthropy will not be missed.

The show famous for being about nothing may have a reunion that amounts to exactly that. Despite Jerry Seinfeld himself saying that “something is going to happen” with a Seinfeld reunion, none other than George Costanza has cast doubts over whether it will happen or not. And it doesn’t come down to a “It’s not you, it’s me” scenario, either…
Speaking with Extra TV, Jason Alexander said the source for the talk over a Seinfeld reunion may be the only one, as none of the other core cast members – Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Michael Richards – were let in on the supposed news. “There is only one reason for that rumor. Apparently, at the end of some stand-up thing, [Jerry] went, ‘Larry [David] and I are thinking of something.’ Good for you. I don’t know anything about it… No one called me. Apparently, they don’t need George and they...

In the world of sitcoms, few shows have garnered a fanbase as dedicated as “Seinfeld.” Recently, rumors about a possible reboot of the show have been swirling, stirring excitement among fans. However, Jason Alexander, known for his role as the neurotic George Costanza, has some disappointing news regarding these speculations.
In a candid interview with Extra, Alexander revealed that he is in the dark about any potential revival of the show. His words were a surprise, especially following Jerry Seinfeld’s intriguing comments in a stand-up routine, where Seinfeld hinted at something in the works with Larry David, the show’s co-creator. Seinfeld’s cryptic message suggested they might plan to address the show’s controversial finale.
The finale aired to mixed reviews and saw the main characters getting arrested for their indifference during a mugging. Larry David, discussing the finale with Bill Simmons of Grantland in 2014, acknowledged the divided reception.

Jason Alexander is weighing in on the possibility of a Seinfeld reunion that Jerry Seinfeld teased last month. However, it seems that the actor who played George Costanza during the nine-year run of the sitcom is unaware of any revival actually happening.
“There is only one reason for that rumor,” Alexander said in an interview with Extra. “Apparently, at the end of some stand-up thing, [Seinfeld] went, ‘Larry [David] and I are thinking of something.’ Good for you. I don’t know anything about it… No one called me.”
He continued, “Apparently, they don’t need George and they may not need Elaine ’cause Julia [Louis-Dreyfus] and I went, ‘Do you know anything about this? I don’t know anything about this,’ and I just talked to Michael [Richards] the other day and I don’t think he knew anything about it.”

At a stand-up performance in Boston earlier this month, when asked whether he liked his show’s finale, Jerry Seinfeld said, “Well, I have a little secret for you about the ending [of the show]… but I can’t really tell it, because it is a secret.”
He continued, “Here’s what I’ll tell you. Ok? But you can’t tell anybody… Something is going to happen that has to do with that ending.”
He added, “[it] hasn’t happened yet,” but “just what you are thinking about, [co-creator] Larry [David] and I have also been thinking about it. So you’ll see.”
A video clip of the exchange was later posted to Instagram.
Seinfeld’s co-star, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, told The Guardian on Friday, “I just saw [that news] last night… and I don’t know what he’s talking about.”
The nine-season show debuted in 1989. Seinfeld starred as a fictionalized version of himself, alongside Louis-Dreyfus, Jason Alexander and Michael Richards.

The 1990s reboots are in full swing. So far, fans have reconnected with the beloved Sex and the City characters and caught up with Paul and Jamie Buchman from Mad About You. The cast of Friends sat down for a chat, and Kelsey Grammer returned as Dr. Frasier Crane. Seinfeld, the famed show about nothing, could be next. In fact, Jerry Seinfeld himself teased a potential reboot that would address the problems with the show’s heavily criticized finale. If something is in the works, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who played Jerry Seinfeld’s ex, Elaine Benes, doesn’t know about it.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus seems to know nothing about a potential Seinfeld reunion.
During a recent stand-up show in Boston, Jerry Seinfeld teased a possible reunion of the hit NBC sitcom.
When an audience member asked the comedian if he liked Seinfeld‘s ending, he responded, “Well, I have a little secret for you about the ending, but I can’t really tell it because it’s a secret. Here’s what I can tell you, but you can’t tell anybody: Something is going to happen that has to do with that ending. It hasn’t happened yet.”

A reunion hasn’t been officially confirmed, and even Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who played Seinfeld’s ex-girlfriend Elaine Benes in the series, seems to be in the dark about whatever may be going on.

There may be buzz of an, as yet unspecified, Seinfeld reboot but one of its leading lights either knows as little as the rest of us – or is a very good actress.
Last week saw Jerry Seinfield, co-creator and star of the record-breaking sitcom that ran from 1989 to 1998 on NBC – 180 episodes over nine seasons – hint that he and co-creator Larry David had been thinking about tidying up the show’s ending in some way.

Jerry Seinfeld hinted on Saturday that he and Larry David are working on a “secret” update to the much-maligned series finale of their hit ’90s sitcom “Seinfeld.” As part of a Q&a segment during his October 7 show, Seinfeld was asked if he liked the ending of “Seinfeld.” Jerry pretty much yada-yada’d his way through the response.
“I have a little secret for you about the ending. But I can’t really tell it, because it’s a secret,” Seinfeld told his Boston audience. “Here’s what I’ll tell you… something is going to happen that has to do with that ending. (It) hasn’t happened yet.”
“Just what you are thinking about, Larry and I have also been thinking about,” he continued. Seinfeld seemingly left it at that.
Oh God, it’s gonna be another Super Bowl commercial, isn’t it? That’s a shame.

Seinfeld remains one of the most popular sitcoms of all-time, but the series finale left something to be desired. After nine years of hilarious episodes, Seinfeld came to an end with Jerry (Seinfeld), Kramer (Michael Richards), Elaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus), and George (Jason Alexander) being sentenced to a year in prison. However, “something” seems to be brewing regarding the Seinfeld finale.
During a stand-up set in Boston, Jerry Seinfeld was asked what he thought of the finale. Instead of answering the question, Seinfeld said, “Well, I have a little secret for you about the ending.

Jerry Seinfeld famously made a show about nothing with his hit NBC sitcom "Seinfeld," and now the stand-up comedian is teasing "something" that will follow up on the show's finale, which aired on May 14, 1998. The end of the series was met with plenty of debate after the hour-long episode packed with guest appearances concluded with Jerry (Seinfeld), Kramer (Michael Richards), Elaine, (Julia Louis-Dreyfus), and George (Jason Alexander) ending up in a prison cell in the final scene after being forced to confront a lot of the terrible decisions they made over the show's seven seasons.
In recent years, some fans have come to appreciate that the show ended in such a fashion. As for Seinfeld, though he once said he was "happy" with the show's finale in a Reddit Ama back in 2014, he changed his tune slightly during an interview at the New Yorker Festival in 2017, where he said (via...

At a comedy show last weekend, the Emmy Award-winning co-creator and star of the hit series was asked by an audience member if he liked the show’s controversial ending.

Is a Seinfeld revival in the works? During a stand-up show in Boston over the weekend, Jerry Seinfeld teased that possibility or something of that sort.
Seinfeld referred to the iconic comedy series finale, telling the crowd that he has a “little secret” and that “something is going to happen” related to that ending.
“It hasn’t happened yet,” he teased. “And just what you are thinking about, Larry [David] and I have also been thinking about, so you’ll see… you’ll see.”
Seinfeld did not elaborate, so we’ll all have to stay tuned.
Buzz of a possible Seinfeld revival is not new. When asked by Ellen DeGeneres on her show in 2018 if Seinfeld could follow other sitcom revivals such as Will & Grace and Roseanne, Seinfeld said, “It’s possible.”

In 2018, the comedian teased on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” that a “Seinfeld” revival was “possible,” but he did not further elaborate.
In the finale of “Seinfeld,” Jerry (Seinfeld), Elaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus), George (Jason Alexander) and Kramer (Michael Richards) are arrested and locked up in prison. More than 76 million people tuned in live, making it one of the most-watched television broadcasts in history,...

Julia Louis-Dreyfus did a lot of embarrassing things as Elaine over the many seasons of "Seinfeld," from a pilled-out Marlon Brando impression to the sultry voice of a sex phone operator, but none were quite as humiliating for the actor as that jerky little number in the final season. The legendary comedy series was filled with unforgettable moments up til the very end, and one of the most memorable things from the entire show — Elaine's iconic dance — doesn't occur until the season 8 episode "The Little Kicks," named after her ungainly movement. So why did a seasoned comedian like Louis-Dreyfus get so bashful, and where exactly did that dance come from anyway?
"She was very nervous about this because, as much of a trooper as she is to look foolish and being funny, she was a little worried about it being foolish and not being funny," explained "The Little Kicks" director...

Nearly 40 years after outré comedian Andy Kaufman’s death from cancer, there remain fans who are certain that a faked demise was Kaufman’s most ambitious and committed hoax.
Until proven otherwise, this is a ridiculous conviction. That said, it’s probably no more or less absurd than believing that Andy Kaufman is a figure who could be explained or even adequately summarized in a conventional documentary. There are some outsized personalities so cloaked in mythology that even the tallest tales about them seem believable, but Kaufman’s personality was so cloaked in subterfuge that any attempt to deconstruct that personality or his behavior is going to come across as a bit within a bit.
This is the problem that Alex Braverman’s new documentary Thank You Very Much runs into. The documentary is filled with fantastic footage from Kaufman’s fearless performances, mostly familiar but still wildly iconoclastic. It...
