Stand-up is a very scientific and very exhaustive study of the human experience. - Jerry Seinfeld

Working with the [Seinfeld] cast was pure heaven for me. We were as well suited to each other as it seems when you watch the show.

I was happy with the Seinfeld finale because we didn't want to do another episode as much as we wanted to have everybody come back to the show we had so much fun with. It was a way to thank all of the people who worked on the show over the years that we thought made the show work.

I believe in detailed notes and jokes, and also winging it onstage. But, not for your first open mic. For your first open mic, my advice to you would be to make sure you have what you're gonna do memorized, to the point that one of your friends can gently slap you across the face, and you'll still be able to get it out of your mouth.
