Comedian and actor Jerry Seinfeld hinted that there could be a reunion or
reboot of his iconic comedy, “Seinfeld,” in the future.

The 69-year-old made the comments while he was performing a stand-up set at
the Wang Theatre in Boston on Saturday. During a Q&A portion of the show,
Seinfeld responded to a fan asking about the now-infamous ending of the
series, wondering if the comedian “liked it.”

“Well, I have a little secret for you about the ending,” the “Seinfeld” star
said in a video posted on Instagram. “But I can’t really tell it, because it
is a secret. Here’s what I’ll tell you. OK? But you can’t tell anybody.
Something is going to happen that has to do with that ending. Hasn’t happened
yet. And just what you are thinking about, Larry and I have also been
thinking about it. So, you’ll see.”

“Seinfeld,” co-created by Larry David, ran on NBC from 1989 to 1998 and won
ten Emmy Awards. David eventually left the show but returned to help with the
final episode, which drew mixed reviews from fans.

The finale of the “show about nothing” depicted the main characters, Jerry,
George (Jason Alexander), Kramer (Michael Richards), and Elaine (Julia
Louis-Dreyfus), getting arrested for violating the Good Samaritan law that
required them to help a carjacking victim rather than just mocking him.
During the episode, various people from past episodes testify about how awful
they truly are.

The series ends with all four characters going to jail.

When asked about the show’s final episode during a Reddit AMA in 2014,
Seinfeld said, “It was a way to thank all of the people who worked on the
show over the years that we thought made the show work. I don’t believe in
trying to change the past but I’m very happy with it.”

One year later, the comedian said he wished they’d ended the series
differently. “I sometimes think we really shouldn’t have even done it,” he
told the New Yorker Festival in 2017, according to Vulture. “There was a lot
of pressure on us at that time to do one big last show, but big is always bad
in comedy.”
