On the one hand I love Seinfeld, on the other the decline of Curb Your Enthusiasm, which has become way too self-aware, spells bad omens.
I can see Elaine and George working in any return. But Michael Richards is 68 so it's doubtful he will be able to pratfall, which was so intrinsic to his character. And Jerry Seinfeld is bald now, which was a key part of George's insecurity and made him the butt of jokes within the group - so would Jerry wear a wig?
This Seinfeld post 9/11 spec script is pretty funny. Maybe they should hire this guy to be on the writing team?
Which is precisely the thing. A Seinfeld return would've made more sense in the years after 9/11.
I can't help but feel as if it's missed the boat now with the way the world is and how TV has changed.
I am COMPLETELY against this! Leave well enough alone and come up with original ideas. With films, TV shows and everything else, I'm tired of reboots/prequels/sequels, etc. As Jerry said, the show was done right the first time. If you want to visit them at any time: stream them on Hulu, pop in the DVD or turn on TBS at any point of the day!
