🤯 Prediction😂 Loved it Never happened

Seinfeld will return with new seasons or episodes in the future.

Fans discuss whether Seinfeld will ever return with new episodes or seasons, with most skeptical but hopeful, citing the show's end and cast members' failed spinoffs.

Is it an absolutely forlorn hope that we will ever see new series of Seinfeld? Not just a once-only ep...but a whole new season?

It seems clear now that Seinfeld the series was greater than the sum of its parts. With the failure of Bob Patterson and The Michael Richards Show, Jason Alexander and Michael Richards might well be wondering what the future holds for them. I wish JLD well, but if this one falls over too....well it would have to be a good bet they would lobby Jerry. Or would it? I suppose Seinfeld has always been a solitary act, and seeing as he's not actualy short of a buck, he would have no compelling reason to reprise the series.

I don't think there would be many Seinfeld fans that would not want to see more and new eps (and if you don't, why not?) so maybe........

Personally, I would be escatic if they did. Any thoughts?

Seinfeld had nine wonderful years, but you can't contintue a series forever. I'm pretty sure they will never start the show again (I did hear about this reunion movie, but I'm not sure how true that all is...fill me in here?).

I don't think it'll come back, but I just want a true spinoff, maybe Kramer...just have a new show called Cosmo, people would watch that...probably more than 5 episodes too, IMO : )

Two words: Season Nine.

I'll be brutally honest. The chances of a whole new season of Seinfeld are about the same as that for a new season of I Love Lucy to be produced with the original cast.

I remember that when the final season was being originally aired, several posters in this newsgroup frequently complained how bad the series had gotten. Personally, I thought that the final season of Seinfeld was usually pretty good, and only two or three episodes from that period were out-and-out duds.

One of the funniest episodes from the final season was the Puerto Rican Day Parade episode, which was pulled from reruns by NBC due to complaints. (Is that episode included in syndication?)

The series, however, is OVER. Jerry Seinfeld actually turned down 100 MILLION DOLLARS to do the show for just one more season. So why would he do another season of Seinfeld years after the series original end?

I for one would like to see a full-length reunion movie, made for the big screen. However, I can accept the fact that the original series is over. It's better for it to end than for it to come back and not be as good.

screen. However,

to end than for

I agree....but the question was more about what if the economic imperatives made it more likely.

Guys come on, there will never be anymore seasons of Seinfeld. Sure we might see a reunion episode or something but thats it, the whole kit and kaboodle. No more.

Its ironic that the best-received show has been Larry David's show......for all the claims that the actors were what drove the show, it can be shown that good writing is EVERYTHING......charismatic actors cannot do anything with poor writing.....

Of course, another take on this can be found at the end of "The Virgin"

George: What do I do? Well actually, I'm a writer. In fact, I'm writing a comedy pilot for NBC right now.

Woman: A sitcom? How can you write that crap? Carol, this guy's writing a sitcom.

Carol: A sitcom? Come on, let's go. (They leave)

Did you ever hear that UK comedian talk about theAlanis Morissette song - and how she used "ironic" incorrectly in every example.

He took her song and explained each example...

lanis Morissette-Ironic -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- An old man turned ninety-eight He won the lottery and died the next day It's a black fly in your Chardonnay It's a death row pardon two minutes too late Isn't it ironic... don't you think

......No, just DAMN unfortunate!

CHORUS: It's like rain on your wedding day

.... Ironic if your groom was a meterologist!

It's a free ride when you've already paid It's the good advice that you just didn't take Who would've thought... it figures

Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye He waited his whole damn life to take that flight And as the plane crashed down he thought "Well isn't this nice..." And isn't it ironic... don't you think

CHORUS

Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you When you think everything's okay and everything's going right And life has a funny way of helping you out when You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up In your face

A traffic jam when you're already late

... frustrating perhaps

A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break

.... Ironic only if you work for a cigarette company

It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife

. . . and that's just plain STUPID!

.... some woman who wanted to protect Alanis. yelled out "IT'S A METAPHORE!"

.... the comedian replied, "She said ...like... IT'S A SIMILE!" .... (big laugh)

It's meeting the man of my dreams And then meeting his beautiful wife And isn't it ironic... don't you think A little too ironic... and yeah I really do think...

CHORUS

Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out Helping you out
