🙁 Disliked it

Posters discuss Jason Alexander's appearance in a new show, with criticism of his hairstyle and skepticism about the show's premise of him playing an upset father.

Anyone seen the promos for his new show? I don't think it's gonna work, it just seems they're gonna play it as George as the upset father. But what's up with Jason's hair? They're painting black on the peak of Jason's head to create a ridge to make it look like he has more hair? Looks weird...What are they thinking? I liked his full toup on Seinfeld a lot better than this.

Character is based on Tony Kornheiser. That's how his hair looks.

No, they're gonna put half a jar of mousse in there, like you!

Does Jerry/Larry own George Costanza, Cosmo Kramer and Elaine Benes? Is that why those three could not branch out after Seinfeld ended and do what Joey is doing right now from Friends?

\m/ ROBUTTO may be my new favorite character. (i'm big on flat, flabby asses.) Reminds me of The Giant Cellulite Ass.

Dawesome. Dodally dawesome.

He's just a curious kid. Nothing more. :)

Probably but it would have been a disaster had it happened, maybe only on the level of the Andrea Doria but a disaster nonetheless.

Yes. Jerry and Larry, as producers of the show own the rights to those characters. But the actors, from what I have read, would not want to reprise those characters in other shows, anyway. They don't need the money. They want to extend their craft to other roles.

To wit, the CYE season 2 episodes where Jason and Julia want to break out of their previous roles:

<http://www.hbo.com/larrydavid/episode/season2/episode11.html>

"And in (yet) another case of art imitating life, Larry and Jason Alexander contemplate making a new TV series about an actor who can't find work because he's typecast as a "jackass" character from a hit series."

<http://www.hbo.com/larrydavid/episode/season2/episode14.html>

"Later, when [Larry] and Julia Louis-Dreyfus are pitching their new show to HBO, Larry just can't leave the subject of the shrimp alone."

And that was also thein-joke basis for the episode... The Burning ... where Kramer is type cast as the gonorrhea patient acting out the disease.

In article ,

Ah, I didn't catch that one at the time, though I remember Kenny Banya being a "time slot hit" in _The Burning_. Were there other season 9 in-jokes?

It's probably the noble thing to say...

But, in reality, I'm sure all three of them would of loved to have their own Seinfeld character show and the cash.

He had new hair on the Colin Quinn show too.

***** I recall, Central Park in fall, how you tore your dress, what a mess, I confess, that's not all.

If Kramer, George and Elaine had their own shows I think they would of all made it. They could crossover with each other's and such. It would be great.
