In a recent interview with GQ, Jerry Seinfeld confessed that the ‘Seinfeld’ finale still bothers him a bit, even after all these years. However, he emphasized his belief in not having regrets and acknowledged that the episode’s imperfections were a necessary element of comedy. Despite the criticism, Seinfeld defended the finale, arguing that selfish characters are essential to comedy and that people relate to them.
Seinfeld and Larry David revisited a similar premise in the finale of ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm,’ which recently ended after 24 years. David even addressed the similarities between the two finales during a recent appearance at PaleyFest, calling it a ‘full-circle’ moment for fans.
Seinfeld acknowledged that some people didn’t like the ‘Seinfeld’ finale, but he dismissed their criticism with a blunt ‘Fuck you!’ He then revealed that he considers ‘Mad Men’ to have the greatest series finale he has ever seen, praising its satisfying conclusion.
