Jason Alexander reveals his most favourite scene to film in iconic 90s sitcom Seinfeld

As a lifestyle expert with a keen eye for iconic moments in television history, I must say that Jason Alexander‘s revelation of his favorite George Costanza moment from Seinfeld is nothing short of enlightening. The scene where George engages in a romantic dalliance with his office’s cleaning woman and the subsequent dialogue between him and Jerry is a testament to the genius of the show’s creators, Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David.


He’s the US actor who played one of the most loveable misanthropes in television history.

Jason Alexander, known for his role as George Costanza on Seinfeld, shared his all-time favorite scene featuring his character from the legendary sitcom.

On Thursday, Jason, who’s 65, found himself discussing his latest project with Uber Eats on The Project. However, the conversation unexpectedly shifted towards his most iconic acting role instead.

Waleed Aly inquired about Jason’s favorite Costanza moment, and he swiftly came up with a response without much delay.

As a devoted observer, I’ve noticed George finding himself in predicaments he created time and again, sometimes managing to extricate himself, other times choosing not to. This is what Jason conveyed, in essence.

Later on, he shared that his favorite Costanza moment was from the third season’s episode entitled “The Red Dot,” where George finds himself involved in a romantic encounter with the office cleaner.

Jason recounted a particularly memorable scene, which he found exceptionally clever, from an episode. In this episode, George was employed at a publishing firm and was secretly involved in romantic liaisons with the cleaner in his office. Eventually, he was discovered.

If you’re penning that sequence and you find yourself thinking: “Alright, I’ve got this character named George Costanza, what transpires next? What you envision wouldn’t even come close to what they eventually devised.

Jason then repeated George’s immortal rebuttal of: ‘Is that wrong’?

He went on to reveal that the way that creators Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David created George’s response to the sticky situation gave the actor incredible insight into George’s mind.

‘That is the most brilliant try to save your own behind that I could have ever imagined,’ he said.

The moment I laid eyes on that script, and realized their chosen method, it provided a significant revelation about the nature of that character to me.

‘It was really very helpful for me in understanding how the mind of George Costanza works.’

Waleed confessed that he barely remembered the old episode from 1991, until Jason started recounting the tale again.

Replying, Jason said that was a testament to the show’s creators.

‘Jerry and Larry were writing a kind of comedy that was very new,’ he said.

In a unique form, it produced an unusual melody rather than what we’re accustomed to. It showcased various narratives and types of characters that were unconventional. At that time, it was quite daring and ventured far from the norm.

Often recognized as one of the greatest comedy series ever made, Seinfeld was on air for a span of seven seasons, starting in 1989 and ending in 1998.

In the famous sitcom often referred to as “the show about nothing,” Jerry Seinfeld played the leading character, while Julia Louis-Dreyfuss portrayed Elaine and Michael Richards took on the role of Kramer.

The finale of Seinfeld was a significant cultural event, captivating an astonishing 76.26 million television viewers in the United States.
