Seinfeld: Why Jason Alexander Originally Disliked Season 4’s “Jerry” Storyline
George Costanza actor Jason Alexander initially disliked Seinfeld season 4’s Jerry storyline, with the concept branching away from the series’ core premise. Seinfeld season 4 followed Jerry (Jerry Seinfeld), Elaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus), George, and Kramer (Michael Richards) through their daily lives in New York City, but with a new arc that saw Jerry and George develop a sitcom for NBC called “Jerry.” Mocking Seinfeld’s own premise as a semi-fictional look at Jerry Seinfeld’s everyday life, Jerry was pitched by the titular character and George to NBC executives as a “show about nothing” – which is how Seinfeld is notably remembered.
