    Leaked script for future Seinfeld reboot filmed in Tel Aviv instead of NYC.

    Seinfeld Tel Aviv is an entirely different format. It's a 100% staged reality tv series. The scuttlebutt is that they'll do up to two dozen takes or more to get things to be authentic Jerry.

    Jerry's life before Tel Aviv is only ever described the same way. Jerry does the same tedious shtick over-and-over. The ad-like repetition is like the voiceover of a butt cream medication. Jerry says "I lived in New York. But that's over. Now that I've..." - pregnant pause - "made my Aliyah..." Even r/JerryTelAviv is sick of it!

    None of the original cast appear but there are weird echoes of the original show. For example his wife refers to him nearly every time by using his name in a George-like form - "Jerry!" or "But Jerry!" or "Jerry..." etc. r/JerryTelAviv hates that even more than the "my Aliyah". "Jerry" appears multiple times in every episode. There is no escape.

    In the worst episode - the one that will be killed before syndication - his wife said it nine times. It's just one of the many horrors in Israel Has a Right to Defend Itself. His wife is a polarizing topic for the sub and has caused a lot of people to get banned with a message saying "Do Not Be AntiSemitic! Especially to a Jewish Mother! It's a Shanda! Buh-bye!"
