Seinfeld actually aired their first ever episode in July 1989, and after poor reviews, NBC decided to not pick up the show. One NBC executive felt it had promise, and ordered 4 more episodes to be shot, and these aired in 1990, to good reviews. The series ended up running for 9 years, with the finale airing on May 14, 1998, winning many Emmy and Golden Globe awards. Were you a fan of the series?

Festivus was not created by George’s father, Frank Costanza. The fake holiday was created before the series was even conceived, in 1966, by an editor of Reader’s Digest named Dan O’Keefe, to celebrate the anniversary of his first date with his wife.

Twenty-five years later, Seinfeld is still running in syndication and has generated $3.1 billion since the final episode aired. The enduring 1990s sitcom, created by Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David, is the most profitable 30-minute show in television history, and it has been for some time. Would you like to see a Seinfeld reunion? I'd love that!
