Half the episodes centred around home/public phones, answering machines and not being able to get in contact with people in a pre-mobile world…
How are they going to deal with that?
Waiting at the Chinese restaurant: Just got a text from George, he’s not coming, we’ll see the movie without him. Roll credits.

Writing is about creating issues to drive the story…
Jerry text’s George “where are you?”
George is in the middle of yet another job interview with someone who demands total attention. George spends the episode trying to hide the fact he is trying to text from the interviewer.
This leads to a series of bizarre texts to Jerry that make no real sense or that he is five minutes away.
Do you think the era of instant messaging has solved all miscommunications or people ghosting or people avoiding responding for one reason or another?
There was a whole modern Seinfeld shtick that went around the internet a couple years back and people had 100s of ideas that sounded exactly like it could have been an episode.
Really the show comes down to Jerry’s observations and Larry’s annoyances. Neither of those have stopped.
Here’s an easy one from the past few years. George gets to work from home. “I’m livin the dream Jerry!” He eventually gets caught naked on teams.
He eventually gets caught naked on Teams
Haha, sounds a bit like the sleeping at work episode. Brilliant!
yeah the thing with riding the nostalgia wave is you gotta catch it at the right time. This wave has long since passed
Channel 10 is still playing repeats of it and I assume people are still watching it so at least here in Australia I wouldn’t think it irrelevant
yeah not irrelevant but more is it worth it I guess
Someone with a lot of money to burn thinks it’s a good idea
If there is, what the fuck are they going to do about Michael Richards???
Bro nobody forgot, and what he said only got worse, not better.
Get the guy who played Kramer on the inshow sitcom
