We made a deal that was acceptable to us. We got paid very handsomely for our final season.

I'm still bald, I just wear a toupee.

I think with challenge comes a little more fun.
thinking community insane
There is no community service in Seinfeld. But rather than lauding that, I think it shows the insane banality of it.
stupid people live-simply
People this stupid shouldn't be allowed to live.
audience bad cameras hold perform performance role stage tend terrible translate
The world of the stage and the performance on the stage usually does not tend to translate very well - it doesn't tend to hold very well - once cameras are on it; it's not like it's terrible or embarrassing or bad anything, but, I, as an actor, would perform a role differently for an audience than I would for just cameras.
allowed beloved came enjoy episode fact george himself indication met occasion played seemed
I met the real George Steinbrenner on only one occasion when he actually came and played himself on an episode of 'Seinfeld.' He seemed to really enjoy himself. I did not get to know him, but the fact that he allowed himself and his beloved team to be satirized on our show is an indication to me of his true character.
constantly entertainment
The necessity for 'professionals' in the entertainment industry is being constantly challenged.
comics performing
Most stand-up comics relish performing 'in one' - solo. They like the autonomy.

Jerry Seinfeld made a puddle, I stepped in it, and wonderful things happened.
albums lives
Comedy lives on in the web and TV, but nobody's pressing comedy albums anymore.

I've gotten a lot of compliments on the 'Criminal Minds' guy. I guess it's because the look of that character is so different from what people expect of me.

I guess the Reagan era is defined as the 'I want it all for me, and screw everybody else' era.
couple george looked producer roles
I have actually lost a couple of roles - film roles - because a director or producer thought I looked too much like George Costanza, and I could not get out of that box.
