COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Great book for Seinfeld fans or those interested in the entertainment industry submitted by denisemw on August 29, 2021, 4:45pm Very well written book about the making, development, and evolution of Seinfeld. I found it very engaging and a fairly quick book to read. I am not a huge fan, but liked learning what went into the show, how the cast, crew, and writers worked together and even changed when the show became successful. The stories behind the stories are amusing.

Meh submitted by karenkay on August 5, 2022, 7:53pm I was disappointed with this book. It felt like an endless list of individuals who were involved in the show with out that much other content.
