On October 7, comedian Jerry Seinfeld (Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee), performed a stand-up show in Boston, mentioning something that has fans begging for answers. Seinfeld was asked by a member of the audience if he was pleased with the ending of his nineties sitcom, Seinfeld. Via The Hollywood Reporter, Seinfeld 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.”
The American television sitcom Seinfeld, was co-created by Seinfeld and Larry David (Curb Your Enthusiasm). The show ran for nine seasons between 1989 and 1998. The series follows Seinfeld, who plays a similar version of his true self; a comedian dealing with dating, friends, shenanigans, bets, and more. Co-stars of the series include Jerry’s eccentric neighbor with a quirky way of moving, Cosmo Kramer played by Michael Richards (Mad About You), Jerry’s neurotic friend with physical and emotional insecurities that often doom romantic relationships, George Costanza played by Jason Alexander (Pretty Woman), and Jerry’s ex-girlfriend who hangs around with her friends like one of the boys, Elaine Benes played by Julia Louis-Dreyfus (Veep).
The final episode of the series titled “The Finale” disappointed fans after its airing. The finale was split into two parts, starting with Jerry and George being told the president of NBC wants to meet with them in Los Angeles to give them an offer on their original television pilot script. Jerry and his friends fly from New York to California on a private jet sent by NBC. Typical antics from the friend group caused the plane to make an emergency landing in Massachusetts. While Jerry, George, Kramer, and Elaine wait for the plane’s repairs they wander into town and witness a carjacking. The friends mock the situation and begin to film it which leads to them being arrested, as the city has a Good Samaritan law, requiring bystanders of a crime intervene. During the trial, many past bosses, acquaintances, those that despised the friends, and others who were featured in the first nine seasons of the show took to the stand to testify. The jury finds the friends guilty of their crime and the show ends with Jerry giving a poor stand-up routine in the prison cafeteria.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Seinfeld went on to say during his Boston show, “And just what you are thinking about [Seinfeld co-creator Larry David] and I have also been thinking about… So you’ll see.” The Hollywood Reporter relays that Seinfeld’s statements do not confirm the show’s reunion.
Seinfeld is currently available to stream on Netflix.
