Seinfeld: How It Began

In 1989, when the first episode of Seinfeld aired, Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld had no idea that they were about to change the world of sitcom comedy. Who would have thought that a show about nothing could become one of the greatest comedy series ever to hit television?

Seinfeld: How It Began reunites the show’s creators, David and Seinfeld, along with fellow stars Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Jason Alexander, and Michael Richards, to discuss their personal perspectives on the origins of this beloved sitcom. They reflect on how some of the show’s funniest moments came into being.

When it comes to television sitcoms, Seinfeld broke the mould, allowing audiences a break from the endless line-up of family-orientated sitcoms. This series was made for adults, offering humour rooted in Jerry and his friends dealing with the everyday annoyances of adult life.
