Seinfeld 2017

Wondering what George and Jerry are bickering about these days? Wonder no more. It’s…

800px-seinfeld_logo-2017George: Hey, didn’t you like my joke?
Jerry: What joke?
G: The one I texted you last night. About how Barack Obama’s dog gets the Secret Service to keep other dogs away from his fire hydrant?
J: Oh yeah, it was funny.
G: You thought it was funny?
J: Yeah, not bad, Georgie Boy.
G: (annoyed) So where was my emoji?

J: Your what?
G: You didn’t send me a smiley face. You didn’t even LOL.
J: Oh come on!
G: Yes! Yes! If it’s funny you’re supposed to send an emoji. That’s what you do. If you like something you send a thumbs up, or a smiley face. If it’s funny you write back LOL or maybe send a gif of a laughing monkey.
J: Why would I do that when I’ve got a laughing monkey right here?
G: (angry) You owe me an emoji Jerry!
J: I don’t send out emojis that easily. Your joke was barely a chuckle. It wasn’t emoji-worthy.

G: This is not how the internet works! People send all kinds of emojis. Kramer sends emojis all the time!
J: Oh, Kramer! He doesn’t know an LOL from an ROTFL!
G: You owe me an emoji Jerry!
J: And you owe me $235 for my drone you crashed last week trying to see the Giants for free.
G: (contrite) Let’s call it even.

      Back in college I took a screenwriting course and we focused exclusively on Seinfeld. Every week we’d watch and episode then we’d dissect it. By the end of the course I produced a professional 92 page script. (Unlike this, it was professionally formatted and included all stage directions, etc.) A little later, through a friend of a friend kind of thing, it ended up in the Seinfeld offices where I was told it was deemed “filmable” by someone there. (Janitor? Jerry himself? No clue.)

        BTW, I don’t have a digital copy of the script (never did.) But I do have a couple of copies printed out.

        That pretty awesome! I couldn’t write a screen play to save my life, let alone a filmable one.

          I’m not sure I have it in me anymore. But the class was fun. I need to have someone scan the script and turn it into a pdf one day.
