‘Seinfeld’ Star Michael Richards Reveals He’s Only Recently Watched the Show for the First Time

Seinfeld star Michael Richards revealed in an interview with Fox News host Jesse Watters on Thursday that he only recently watched the show for the first time in its entirety with his son.

“I never watched the shows because I could always see how they could be better, and I had to move fast each week in making each episode,” said Richards while promoting his new book Entrances and Exits on Jesse Watters Primetime:

So it wasn’t until really in the preparation of this book, in getting tuned into the episodes, the seasons, nine years of it, I watched every single episode in order of them being made, as they were aired each week, and I had greater objectivity and I remembered so much and I just sat back and just laughed with my son at this amazing show that so many people came together and made. The chemistry and the outcome was just sensational.

Watters weighed in, “I don’t watch myself either afterwards. I’m too critical; I’m too much of a craftsman. Maybe one day when my career’s over, I’ll watch every single Jesse Watters Primetime episode with my son and just be inspired by the brilliance like you were.”

“Yeah, Jesse. You will be. I’m sure you will be,” replied Richards.

During the interview, Richards also spoke about his time in the U.S. Army and about some of his most iconic scenes from Seinfeld.
