Seinfeld May Be Heading To Netflix

Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
Sick of watching a random assortment of “Seinfeld” episodes on cable? Tired of watching the famous episodes over and over again?
In a Reddit AMA session yesterday, Jerry Seinfeld hinted that the show could make its way to Netflix’s online streaming service sometime in the future. When asked about the possibility of working with Netflix, Seinfeld said: “Those conversations are presently taking place.”
Nothing is for certain, especially as Netflix’s economic situation has been precarious lately. The company would presumably have to pay a large sum of money for the rights to the acclaimed “show about nothing.”
However, all fans are hoping that negotiations progress quickly. And who knows, maybe next summer could be the “summer of George.”
