--> <!-- <h2>Some content</h2>--> <!-- <p>Seinfeld began as a 23-minute pilot titled The Seinfeld Chronicles. Created by Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David, developed by NBC executive Rick Ludwin, and produced by Castle Rock Entertainment, it was a mix of Seinfeld's stand-up comedy routines and idiosyncratic, conversational scenes focusing on mundane aspects of everyday life like laundry, the buttoning of the top button on one's shirt, and the effort by men to interpret the intent of women spending the night in Seinfeld's apartment.[104]--> <!--The pilot was filmed at Stage 8 of Desilu Cahuenga studios, the same studio where The Dick Van Dyke Show was filmed (seen by the crew as a good omen),[105] and was recorded at Ren-Mar Studios in Hollywood.[106] The pilot was first screened to a group of two dozen NBC executives in Burbank, California, in early 1989. It did not yield the explosion of laughter garnered by the pilots for the decade's previous NBC successes like The Cosby Show and The Golden Girls. Brandon Tartikoff was not convinced the show would work. A Jewish man from New York himself, Tartikoff characterized it as "Too New York, too Jewish" (a sentiment which would also lead to the Cosmo character's later surname change from the more Jewish-sounding Kessler to Kramer).[107] Test audiences were even harsher. NBC's practice at the time was to recruit 400 households by phone to ask them to evaluate pilots it aired on an unused channel on its cable system. An NBC research department memo summarized the pilot's performance among the respondents as "weak", which Warren Littlefield, then second-in-command in NBC's entertainment division, called "a dagger to the heart".[104] Comments included, "You can't get too excited about two guys going to the laundromat"; "Jerry's loser friend George isn't a forceful character"; "Jerry needs a stronger supporting cast"; and "Why are they interrupting the stand-up for these stupid stories?"[106] Seinfeld and David did not see the memo for several years, but after they became aware of it, they hung it in a bathroom on the set. Seinfeld comments, "We thought, if someone goes in to use this bathroom, this is something they should see. It fits that moment."[104]--> <!--Around the time the show's pilot was filmed, Castle Rock Entertainment, which produced the show, had also produced another pilot for NBC that featured Ann Jillian in her almost-similarly eponymous TV series. When The Seinfeld Chronicles tested poorly with audiences, Castle Rock focused on Jillian's series, which tested better with audiences and received a full-season order. Ann Jillian lasted only a single season of 13 episodes and was off the air by the end of 1990.[108]--> <!--When NBC announced its 1989–90 (primetime) schedule in May 1989, The Seinfeld Chronicles was not included, but the show's supporters did not give up. The pilot first aired on July 5, 1989, and finished second in its time slot against the CBS police drama Jake and the Fatman,[104] receiving a Nielsen rating of 10.9/19.[106] The ratings did not exhibit the regional skew Tartikoff predicted, much to the encouragement of the show's supporters. Ludwin canceled one of the Bob Hope specials budgeted for that season so the entertainment division had the money to order four more episodes of The Seinfeld Chronicles, which formed the rest of the show's first season (the series was by then retitled to Seinfeld)[104][109]—a move without which Chicago Tribune columnist Phil Rosenthal later said there "would be no Seinfeld".[110] Although this was a very low order number for a new series—and the smallest sitcom order in TV history[106]—Castle Rock failed to find any other buyers when it shopped the show to other networks, and accepted the order.[104] Seinfeld did not return to the airwaves until May 30, 1990, and it was another three years before it became a Top 5-rated show. Preston Beckman, in charge of NBC's research department at the time, reminisced, "The show was different. Nobody had seen anything like it. It wasn't unusual for poor-testing shows to get on the air, but it was very rare that they became hits."--> <!--When it was first repeated on July 5, 1990, it received a rating of 13.9/26. These ratings were high enough to secure a second season.[106] NBC research showed that the show was popular with young male adults, a demographic sought after by advertisers. This gave NBC an incentive to keep broadcasting the show.[111] One DVD reviewer, Britt Gillette, wrote that "this initial episode exhibits the flashes of brilliance that made Seinfeld a cultural phenomenon."[112]--> <!--Other than the pilot, the series was filmed at CBS Studio Center, in Studio City, California. The first three seasons were filmed on soundstage 19; it then moved to the larger Stage 9 for the remainder of its production.[113] Despite numerous establishing shots taken in New York City,[114] all scenes of the actors walking in New York were also filmed at CBS Studio Center, on their New York Street backlot.[115] Other locations on the CBS lot were also used, as well as scenes filmed at Paramount Studios and Warner Brothers Studios Hollywood.[citation needed]--> <!--A source of problems for the cast was the small sets, especially that of Jerry's apartment; Alexander noted "If you knew you were doing a series for nine years, you would never build that set". Adding to the problem was that the scripts contained only minimal physical direction, leaving the actors struggling to come up with actions to perform while speaking. Eventually, they got into a routine of directing each other on how to make their movements look natural. Alexander said this helped them build chemistry with each other.[116]--> <!--Filming usually went long, as the cast and David were perfectionists. If a joke didn't elicit the reaction they hoped for, they rewrote it and performed it again. In at least one case, "The Marine Biologist", this led to David writing an entirely new scene requiring Alexander to memorize a monologue in only a matter of minutes.[116] Laugh tracks were used only for matching shots, not for artificially adding laughter.</p>--> <!-- </div>--> </div> <div style="flex:1;"> <!-- /21830177955/tp_quiz_quiz_right --> <div id='div-gpt-ad-1666098047838-0' style='position: -webkit-sticky;position: sticky;top: 2rem;'> <script> googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1666098047838-0'); }); </script> </div> </div> </div> <!-- /21830177955/tp_quiz_quiz_2 --> <div id='div-gpt-ad-1570126464250-0' style='margin: 2.5rem auto 2rem;'> <script> googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1570126464250-0'); }); </script> </div> </main> <style> .footer__list { align-items: center; flex-flow: column; } @media(min-width: 40rem) { .footer__list { max-width: 70rem; align-items: inherit; flex-flow: inherit; } } </style> <footer class="footer" :class="page"> <a href="/"> <div class="logo footer__logo" role="img" aria-label="TriviaPop"></div> </a> <ul class="footer__list"> <li class="footer__item"><a href="/privacy" class="footer__link">Privacy Policy</a></li> <li class="footer__item"><a href="/privacy/#do-not-sell" class="footer__link">Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information</a></li> <li class="footer__item"><a href="/unsubscribe" class="footer__link">Unsubscribe</a></li> <li class="footer__item"><a href="/contact" class="footer__link">Contact Us</a></li> </ul> <small class="footer__copyright">© 2024 TriviaPop</small> </footer> <!--<footer class="footer" :class="page">--> <!-- <a href="/">--> <!-- <div class="logo footer__logo" role="img" aria-label="TriviaPop"></div>--> <!-- </a>--> <!-- <ul class="footer__list">--> <!-- <li class="footer__item"><a href="/privacy" class="footer__link">Privacy Policy</a></li>--> <!-- <li class="footer__item"><a href="/unsubscribe" class="footer__link">Unsubscribe</a></li>--> <!-- <li class="footer__item"><a href="/contact" class="footer__link">Contact Us</a></li>--> <!-- </ul>--> <!-- <small class="footer__copyright">© 2024 TriviaPop</small>--> <!--</footer>--> </div> </body> </html> <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.3/jquery.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> (function (document, window) { /* // handler to trigger prompt const handler = function (ev) { ["keydown", "click", "contextmenu", "touchend"] .forEach(ev => window.removeEventListener(ev, handler)) Pushy.prompt(window.userData) } // hook 'trusted' user initiated actions, call handler to prompt.
