Jul 31 2009First Look at Curb's 'Seinfeld' Pseudo-Reunion
The first shot of Curb Your Enthusiasm's long-awaited Seinfeld reunion been released by the Home Box Office Television Channel. Furthermore, Larry David talked to press about the scenario's inspiration, and how it will play out:
"The context is for years I've been asked about a 'Seinfeld' reunion -- as has Jerry and the other cast members," Larry David said at the "Curb" panel at the Television Critics Association's press tour in Pasadena."I would say, 'No, there's no reunion, we would never do that, it's a lame idea' ... but it might be really funny to do that on 'Curb' ... and I kept thinking of how we could pull this off, and Jerry was game ... so we're doing a 'Seinfeld' reunion show. ... We'll see the read-through, parts of rehearsals, the show being filmed ... you won't see the entire [mock 'Seinfeld' episode] ... you'll get an idea of what happened 11 years later [for the characters]."
"It was like getting on a bicycle," David said of writing "Seinfeld" dialog again. "Coming up with the right ideas about what they'd be doing 11 years later ... that took some thought."
How David, or science, plans to explain that Julia Louis-Dreyfus is somehow way hotter now than she was literally 20 years ago remains a mystery.

They're probably going to modernize the crap out of it.
I can see it now.
Jerry sitting on the couch with a Macbook.
George ranting about hybrid cars.
Elaine getting in an argument with George because she has a hybrid.
Kramer pops in with his iPod turned all the way up.
They complain about Kramer's choice in volume.
Jerry gets a call on his iPhone and yells to telemarketers.
They start to watch news about Obama on Jerry's new HDTV.
A bunch of other stuff happens.
?????
PROFIT!

@Emkay: You mean modernize or Apple-ize?

I preferred Elaine with the big hair, but she is still hot

Elaine Benes = awesome rack.

@Intermino: Well you don't see Microsoft doing anything all that special and I doubt any of them are going to play Xbox... maybe Kramer, but it's a strech.
Apple has basically become the mascot for our times. It sickens me, but all you ever see is Apple products.

I'm a huge fan of both Curb and Seinfeld,so I know this is going to be freakin' awesome.

Elaine's dad looks just the thing.

She has hardly aged at all, and her hair has gotten much better. Easy as that. Too bad Andie Macdowell never looked all that great, or you could say the same about her.

No jokes about Kramer being a racist? Can it be we're growing up? :O

I've always had an Elaine crush, but I think I'm ready to take it to the next level because she does look flipping hot.
If Jason is wearing the polo and khakis, shouldn't Larry be wearing a cape? Man. Look how hot JL-D is.

Wasn't Kramer on a good-will trip in Africa? hahaha that was something! he was lucky he didn't got his rage on Japanese tourists, I've read it's pretty expensive to live on the most known cities over there.
Douche.

Is it me or did Jason lost some weight? maybe it's the angle but a couple of years ago he was getting morbidly close to the humanoid walrus status (i.e. Kevin James and his brother Jack).
18. Aerialgreen - August 3, 2009 8:46 PM
Oh, and Jason’s man-boobs remain as perky as always.
Who's got a better rack? Julia or Jason?

The 'Julia Louis-Dreyfus' debacle explained: The 80s and 90s are now well behind us.
Thank fucking god.

Maybe it's Maybelline, or Photoshop.

Is it just me, or is Elaine even hotter than she was before? It's like she doesn't age at all. Nice rack too.
