Seinfeld Reunion Is Happening

Fine by me. The finale was nowhere close to what it should've been. It would've been a crying shame if that episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm was the best we could hope for.So what’s the deal with that rumored Seinfeld reunion? Despite Julia Louis-Dreyfus’ denial, Jerry Seinfeld confirms one is in the works. However, the comedian won’t say what form it’ll take.
Speculation about a reunion was renewed earlier this month when a photo surfaced of Seinfeld and Jason Alexander outside Tom’s Restaurant in New York City, whose exterior doubled as Monk’s Cafe on the beloved sitcom. As if that weren’t evidence enough, co-creator Larry David was later spotted leaving the diner.
Appearing this morning on WFAN’s Boomer & Carton radio show, Seinfeld was coaxed into a game of “20 Questions,” in which he provided short, cryptic clues about the reunion: It has, indeed, been filmed; it’s not for a Super Bowl commercial or his web series Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, as has been widely speculated; that it’s “short-ish” form; other Seinfeld actors are involved; and that it will be seen “very, very soon.”
Seinfeld, Alexander, Louis-Dreyfus and Michael Richards appeared together as themselves on David’s improvised comedy series Curb Your Enthusiasm, first in the third episode of Season 7 and then again, with some of the Seinfeld supporting cast, in the ninth episode.

What's really surprising is how something like this could get pitched to the network, approved, scripted, cast, scheduled and shot without word ever leaking out. Says a lot about how much shit doesn't end up on the Internet unless the networks and studios and production companies WANT it out there.

I'm afraid it's going to be a short Super Bowl spot.
That would suck.

It does raise the question of what "short form" might mean. I've assumed a TV episode-length story but with a *VERY* short length would tend to explain how something like this could get done so quietly.it's not for a Super Bowl commercial or his web series Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, as has been widely speculated; that it's "short-ish" form; other Seinfeld actors are involved; and that it will be seen "very, very soon."

Yes. It does. It sucks.
But think of this. After Seinfeld wrapped, the common answer was that there would NEVER be a reunion. Ever. Of any kind. Never. Period.
Then we got that episode of CYE. No big deal but a little bit of a crack in the foundation. Now we have this Superbowl short. This is a major crack in the foundation.
What might the future bring? I think time's on our side.

Anything is possible, but I have a feeling this is more of a "There you go, now stop asking" kind of thing.
I'd LOVE to be wrong though....
