Loved it. I'd like to see more along these lines. Kinda continue it on with shorts like Toy Story.

I consider Seinfeld probably the finest comedy in the history of the television medium. If this "short" was it, the build-up was better than the actual product.

Funny how, compared to the original series, Seinfeld looked way older but Jason Alexander looked pretty much the same.

I agree. Little snippets like this now and again would be cool and I think would work well for a show like Seinfeld. Just enough to keep the characters alive but not overkill the show's legacy.Too bad in the article Jerry said it was a one and done.

I think the short hair really makes a difference with him. He doesn't look terribly old but yeah you can tell he's aged some.

Jerry Seinfeld deserves to be deported.

Duh. That's the line Russell said after George describes the show during The Pitch.

He said it wasn't a commercial or an episode of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. Which technically it wasn't, it was basically a mini reunion with an advertisement for Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee attached to the end.

Except to appear as George, Alexander had to remove that horrible toupee he has been wearing lately.

they couldn't do a full reunion now based on that commerical. Part of the whole Jerry/George give and take is that George is bald and Jerry isn't. The Jerry in that commercial is well on his way to bald.

I'm wondering if they will be doing more with the other characters.

Re: Jerry Seinfeld & Larry David working on something 'huge'.

I was let down by the fact that they got Newman and not Kramer. How can you not get Kramer? Everybody needs a little Kramer.

Maybe there are 2 to 3 more little episodes. I really don't understand how Jerry could've said this was "HUGE", because it really wasn't. What they did with Curb was bigger than this.

I thought the stage play was the "huge" thing he was talking about, and this was something different.

Didn't even see that. Cool stuff. But I don't know about huge.

I was really taken aback by how old Jerry looked. I realize that he's pushing sixty, but that short-cropped hair doesn't do him any favors.

It's also weird seeing George that bald. In the show, he was always sort of going bald, now he's my grade school principal.

Time goes by so fucking fast. I'm now at approximately the same age as Jerry Seinfeld when Seinfeld started, and that seems like it wasn't that long ago.

I don't wanna be sixty!!!!

But then Dumb & Dumber was 20 years ago, and in their sequel, Carrey and Daniels look pretty much the same. Sure, some of it is wig/makeup, but still...

I can't believe so many took what appears to be a joke/sarcasm ("it’s big, huge, gigantic. Even bigger than that Amazon package.") so literally.
