The only thing I can think of is that the people who decide who gets an Emmy were thinking of the character "George" instead of Jason's amazing acting. He's really talented and was snubbed, and that's wrong.
The fact that Jason, the only actor on the show, didn't win an Emmy, is the most George thing that Jason could do!!! 🤣🤣 What an actor to bring the character into real life!🤣🤣
Even the Seinfeld account agrees with us. To me, Jason truly cemented the reputation of the show. He was brilliant and hilarious. I’ve never seen someone’s acting feel so natural
Yup, and yet Elaine's character wins an Emmy? It just goes to show that a woman with good looks is 99 percent of what it takes. Christina Applegate won one, too, so that is even more proof.
Jerry admits he wasn't a good actor... but if you put the right people together with a great idea and you have success any if the 4 main actors had left the show would have died off.
We all love Alexander for his tremendous emotional performances, but one thing we don't mention enough is the level of precise physical comedy he does - he's actually quite athletic and coordinated
George Costanza was the most hilarious character in Seinfeld, he's disturbed, he's depressed, he's inadequate, he's got it all, lol. He alone made the show for me. All of them are memorable but a especially memorable one not mentioned here is "Independent George". That one, along with "Opposite George", "George is getting upset!" and "I was in the pool!!", were the most hilarious George moments in the show for me.
Turning around, leaning on the back of the chair, and yelling at those two guys, at the theater was the absolute most entertaining thing I've ever seen on television!!! 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Alexander was doing one of his first readings with Larry David and Alexander commented on the script and said 'no one would say that' and David replied, 'I did' at that point Alexander understood the George character was actualy Larry David.
* Jason Alexander never won an Emmy for playing George Costanza * Curb You Enthusiasm has never won an Emmy for Outstanding Comedy Series * Better Call Saul didn't win a single Emmy * Quentin Tarantino has never won an Oscar for Best Directing * Radiohead have never won a Grammy for Album of the Year You know, sometimes I think it's more of a honour being part of those "How did they not win an Oscar/Emmy/Grammy?" discussions than having the award itself. I doubt Jason Alexander will ever read this, but thank you for bringing such an iconic character into our lives. The fact that George Costanza is still loved 30 years later show the lasting cultural impact of your work. We all know that you deserved an Emmy.
@jlllorada8447 the man who is cheap, cowardly, slow in the head, snobby, superficial, funny and paranoid but yet had the best character arc on the show.
it’s beyond me that Jason Alexander didn’t get an Emmy for his phenomenal acting. If I recall the so many actors who got this award and didn’t really deserve it…
The massage, the Marine biologist, "I was in the pool!!!", George Costanza was the anchor ⚓️ of Seinfeld. Everything else was a placeholder for the next George saga.
I understand that David Hyde Pierce and Michael Richards were both terrific, but you'd think one year at least the Emmys might have thought 'let's give Jason Alexander his due this time'
7 of the 9 seasons he was nominated for an Emmy. Should have won at least one. FYI David Hyde Pierce of Frasier was nominated every year the show ran(11) and won 4 times.
It always hits me that JLD breaks when George is describing taking his mother to the hospital and Jason did such a good job rolling with it that they were able to leave it in the episode.
The layered nuances of George are unparalleled in the history of TV. The show itself demonstrates that even the guy on who the character is based cannot do justice to the role.
"Was that wrong? Should I not have done that?" is a line my husband and I deploy all the time now. Like Shakespeare, Seinfeld gave us so many great lines.
Absolute Legend, to me he is an Emmy winner! My serenity-now-my-little-man-is-an-idiot-i-think-it-shrunk George Costanza. He’s the best Jerry, the best!! ❤
George by far the best character on Seinfeld. Neurotic, mischievous, childish, arrogant, smug, clever, insecure and witty all while being obnoxious and controlling.
If I’m not watching Seinfeld on UA-cam, I’m watching it on dvd (have every season on dvd). I would love to see him live. This is the best sitcom of all time no doubt. Love the cast, and share a birthday with Julia
One of the greatest TV characters in history. Right up there with Ralph Kramden, Lucy, Sam Malone, Niles Crane, etc. It wasn't an easy character to play either. Jason is a GOAT.
The fact he never won an Emmy for Seinfeld is a crime against humanity
George is getting upset!
There's no actor in TV history more wrongfully snubbed by the Emmys than Jason Alexander.
Was he at least nominated?(
@@DukeKeshaHe lost to Michael.
The only thing I can think of is that the people who decide who gets an Emmy were thinking of the character "George" instead of Jason's amazing acting. He's really talented and was snubbed, and that's wrong.
He's been consistently funny for every single season. He really deserves more credit.

@@andrewforbes1433 What I meant was that the rest (of the main cast) are comedians, not classically trained actors.

"The sea was angry, my friend." This one stands out for a spot on performance. 😅
Yes! Kramer has to hold his line for 20 seconds because of the audience going bonkers.
Seinfeld and David wrote that speech the night before and George was given absolutely no time to rehearse it and absolutely killed it!
Heres another.
I was in the pool!!
The fact that he was able to remember the speech and deliver it to perfection in such a short time was incredible.

And Newman.
Agreed

No it's not.🙄
If it moved your aaa ga* NOT THAT THERES ANYTHING WRONG WITH THAT 😁😂😄😆
Yeah you're right,I still laugh at that ,that was my university years in the states
.now watching this 😂😂😂😂
“This can only happen to you” the best description of George 😂
Also Me…
I don't understand how they never gave Jason Alexander an Emmy for George. The show would not work without him
He was up against Niles Crane and Cosmo Kramer most of the times
The show would not work without any of the characters.
Supposedly the producers conspired to keep emmys out of the hands of the supporting cast to keep their pay low
George is gettin upset!!😂😂🤣✌️
It is unfortunate. The bar is set so low now, you can’t take nothing they give away nowadays award worthy.
He never won an Emmy because we’re LIVING IN A SOCIETY!!!
😅😅
Of depraved lunatics
George is getting upset 😊
I think it moved 😅
What was the remark in the non-fat yogurt episode when Julia/Elaine said that she never won an emmy off-sript.
My favorite scene from the entire Seinfeld series is of George presenting that golf ball so unexpectedly and such a theatrical way to the table
The yelp from that lady is amazing
Was it a Titleist?
We all love Alexander for his tremendous emotional performances, but one thing we don't mention enough is the level of precise physical comedy he does - he's actually quite athletic and coordinated
His delivery of "These pretzels are making me thirsty" deserved an Emmy on it's own
A WHOLE HOUR OF GEORGE LET'S GOOO!!

The older I get, the more I have to acknowledge that I am also like George.

Me too😊
Same. Lol
🙋🏼♀️😂😂😂
everyone wants to be like George now
We've all given George an emmy in our hearts
He needs a retroactive Emmy
Jason Alexander is truly a master of acting without acting. He should really consider writing a book about that technique.
Even Seinfeld's official channel itself complains that Jason didn't get an Emmy Award.
@@Yanornis You brought up some names that DIDN'T get awards. I think that list of people who didn't get awards is SO RIGHT! Radiohead? I'm shocked 😳
George made the show watchable for me. Truly the favorite and most incredible laugh scenes. George favorite then Elaine.

The marine biologist episode was Jason's Emmy moment

The Emmy's doesn't deserve Jason Alexander.
Totally something George would say…

“Pulp can move baby!”

George in the coffeeshop with the doll (his mother) is also one of those hilarious moments 🤣
Perhaps the best tv performance of all time. Or it’s at least in the top tier of important performances on a show that gets after truth in life.
