>do you think I put on too much cologne?? I accidentally broke the nozzle and it poured out all over my favorite jacket. This the one Don Johnson wore last week on Miami Vice. Do I sound nasally and overly semitic?? Larry asked me to tone it down for the show, oh sh sh. Here comes Jerry.
His cheater was almost a meta commentary on his career. He comes with some stigma that turns people off (type cast) in a movie about men sleeping with women they find revolting (Alexander getting a pity role)
Based. That's like your boss telling you that you're not coming in for a week and you'll be okay with it. Also, all the actors on Seinfeld were vying for airtime as described in Seinfeldia. No one's looking out for you in showbiz.
It’s not that narcissistic. Jason was looking out for his role and he had every right to do so. You gotta understand these sitcoms have to present a steady brand, and if the people behind the scenes feel even for a moment that a show might do better with a staple character being turned into a recurring character, they’ll do it without hesitation.
Going from a recurring to a main character is just as huge as going from a main character to a recurring. That kind of thing can lose you a job instantly.
>weaponized lactation
this kek can't believe nobody else mentioned it.
he did a celebrity poker tournament where a woman in it had just had a baby and he started making baby crying noises to force her body to involuntarily start lactating through her shirt
Typecast. He would always be seen as George and Richards as Kramer.
But he did continue working. He’s done smaller roles in tons of shows, as well as theater work and even some standup.
With hindsight yeah but I don't think they could have anticipated how big the show would be and that it would still be popular in current year. I'm sure there are plenty of actors who said no to the guaranteed money on single season forgotten shows and regret that as well.
He was already a bit of a "that guy" character actor, like the lawyer in Jacob's Ladder and that other horror movie, can't remember which. He just happened to play one of the superstar iconic sitcom characters of all time, which is incredibly rare. You can put those characters on a short list. Why the hell would anyone expect him to anything half so big ever again? He went back to character actor, like Voyager, Law & Order, Shallow Hal, etc.
Dude has SEINFELD money. Literal cast of billionaires now. You think he cares about a serious acting career anymore? You know how much h they all make in syndication checks?
Other than Bob Patterson, I don't think he ever really even tried hard in television again. Jason always prefered the stage and has been working consistently all this time
Honestly I enjoyed watching his downfall. Hated the guy for not standing up for himself and letting the show make fun of his body. I get it it's acting, it's his job. But I lost all respect for him. israelites will fo anything for a buck.
George wouldn’t even be fat by todays standards, and he was always (inexplicably) with beautiful women. this is the most mindbroken take I’ve ever seen
he did some totally bizarre short for adult swim where he played a therapist in the midst of a mental breakdown. really strange but interesting stuff and he nailed the part, worth checking out
He’s nothing like George Costanza irl. George is the self insert of Larry David, and Larry David went off to do Curb Your Enthusiasm after Seinfeld. So now you’ve got a short fat bald actor who isn’t particularly creative and who’s real personality isn’t neurotic, it’s pompous and self assured. What do you do with him? You either attempt to re-create Costanza without Larry David or you try to write a part for some happy and confident bald guy.
You mean Sopranos?
he got too frisky with his costars
>do you think I put on too much cologne?? I accidentally broke the nozzle and it poured out all over my favorite jacket. This the one Don Johnson wore last week on Miami Vice. Do I sound nasally and overly semitic?? Larry asked me to tone it down for the show, oh sh sh. Here comes Jerry.
Because like all actors, they think they are the stars. For some reason, they don't how they are basically a mime if they don't have a script.
He ate that eclair out of the trash.
this, it wasnt even scripted
REPARATIONS!!!
>career implode
>was in shallow hal
pick one
His cheater was almost a meta commentary on his career. He comes with some stigma that turns people off (type cast) in a movie about men sleeping with women they find revolting (Alexander getting a pity role)
It's kinda hard to motivate yourself to work after getting paid a million dollars to joke around with your friends for a few hours once a week.
He desperately wanted to be a serious working actor and didn't want to be seen as just George
He already was a successful Broadway actor.
but he IS george.
and nobody was ever going to take him seriously as a song and dance man
He's a narcissist sociopath.
?si=V2oYQN98k4YaOxvP
isn't that just called acting
it’s “acting without acting.”
How do you get that from this interview? He's just saying he couldn't find the comedic rhythm with her for whatever reason.
Bad example, here's a much better behind the scenes look that makes him look like a narcissistic gay.

Literally nothing narcissistic about this
Once they start writing you out, they'll do it all the time
Yep
They don't care is just a trend for them
Makes him look smart. Jason knew exactly what being written out meant and nipped it hard in the bud.
George at the laugh factory
Jason vs Jason
weaponized lactation
that and he just nailed george so well it was pretty much impossible to see him as anyone else
>weaponized lactation
this kek can't believe nobody else mentioned it.
he did a celebrity poker tournament where a woman in it had just had a baby and he started making baby crying noises to force her body to involuntarily start lactating through her shirt
Well, what's his appeal? What long lasting role does he belong in?
he'd make a good vizzini if they bring back princess bride
reminder Newman got skinny and everyone hated it so much he got fat again
>acting
>without acting
He's not likable or charismatic as anything but the George character
HE WAS IN THE POOL
Typecast. He would always be seen as George and Richards as Kramer.
But he did continue working. He’s done smaller roles in tons of shows, as well as theater work and even some standup.
i came across him in a Twilight Zone radio adaptation a few months ago
For me it’s his Criminal Minds appearance, where he’s got the goofy white wig.
What the frick were they thinking
Max Baer Jr. had the same problem. Was seen as Jethro and could not get better roles again. He went to making movies behind the scenes. He did okay.
not smart or creative enough to hustle
one trick pony, same with richards. Goes to show the only one with real talent was JLD
Veep sucks. I watched the Veep pilot and laughed once.
Shit taste
Uh, are we pretending he didn't have a starring role in an episode of Malcolm in the Middle?
>barely taller than a junior high kid
It's pretty surreal still seeing him in random commercials. Isn't he already worth millions?
If you could get six figures for thirty seconds, wouldn't you do it?
I don't charge women for sex
He was in a Nickleback music video. His career is fricking great.
Duckman is peak and he is the voice of the unheard
Duckman is israeli psyop
WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU LOOKING AT?
The chain of production and commercialization of raw copper ores
he was in uhhhhhhhhhh Dunston Checks In
that did well right
Some people don’t have to keep acting until they’re 80 so they have more money to donate to Scientology
Jason, Julia, and Michael got absolutely nothing from the billion dollar syndication deals, it all went to Larry and Jerry.
Because turned down that option for an up front payment. They are morons
Wich should be illegal
You want to criminalize moronation? I'd like to donate to your campaign

He was too good at being George on Seinfeld
He played George Costanza so well, that he became IRL George Costanza
Watch this and seriously try to separate it from George Costanza. It's impossible.
?si=DOIv_UpuBHjoYM3C
*muffled "these pretzels are making me thirsty" in the distance*
In my headcannon this was literally a george costanza dream then we wakes up under his desk in his yankees office
God would never let him be successful
He was good in The Producers
Yall homies be sleepin on Dunston checks in fr fr no cap sheeesh, that flick be bussin yo
He just directed a play on Brodway.
>always going to get typecast as George Costanza
>too rich to bother with acting anymore
He was married to Britney Spears
Dude has SEINFELD money. Literal cast of billionaires now. You think he cares about a serious acting career anymore? You know how much h they all make in syndication checks?
Pro tip only Jerry and Larry have residuals
I saw in one interview Jason talking about how Jerry's had to help him out with money over the years
Other than Bob Patterson, I don't think he ever really even tried hard in television again. Jason always prefered the stage and has been working consistently all this time
duckman
Honestly I enjoyed watching his downfall. Hated the guy for not standing up for himself and letting the show make fun of his body. I get it it's acting, it's his job. But I lost all respect for him. israelites will fo anything for a buck.
ok /misc/
George wouldn’t even be fat by todays standards, and he was always (inexplicably) with beautiful women. this is the most mindbroken take I’ve ever seen
Isn't Alexander himself israeli?
He is not.
>real last name is Greenspan
Yes he is
His reputation took an irredeemable hit when Bob Paterson became a PUA in the early 2000s
He was always seemed like kind of a b***hy diva
b***h you know nothing
He didnt give a shit about tv hes a stage actor frick tv.
he did some totally bizarre short for adult swim where he played a therapist in the midst of a mental breakdown. really strange but interesting stuff and he nailed the part, worth checking out
He’s nothing like George Costanza irl. George is the self insert of Larry David, and Larry David went off to do Curb Your Enthusiasm after Seinfeld.
