In the seventh season finale of 'Curb Your Enthusiasm,' the plot intermittently focuses on the taping of the 'Seinfeld' reunion show. This got us to wondering: What if 'Seinfeld' actually came back on the air with new episodes? (Jerry Seinfeld has made it pretty clear that this will not happen.) But what if it did? Having said that (ahem), what has happened to these characters over the last11 years? Assuming the events that happened to the 'Seinfeld' characters within the 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' episode is in fact canon, we collected all the information contained within the table read, rehearsals and the filmed episode to bring us up to date on where the seven characters featured stand in 2009
Kenny Bania:
Is out of work due to the bad economy. Though, as it's pointed out by Jerry Seinfeld, he never worked that often in a good economy.
Has a daughter, Isabelle, with Jerry Seinfeld, though, the child is unaware that Jerry is the father as he donated sperm and was not a part of her upbringing. Elaine wants Isabelle to know the truth about Jerry,; Elaine feels Isabelle needs a father figure in her life. Jerry is hesitant about this idea and doesn't even like the idea of being called "Uncle Jerry."
Estelle Costanza:
Has moved from Queens, NY to Florida. It is unclear if she is still married to Frank Costanza. Her son, George, was going to buy her a new house but never got a chance before he lost millions in
Bernie Madoff's Ponzi scheme. The news of George getting back together with his ex-wife may kill her.
George Costanza:
In the 11 years since we last saw George Costanza, he had become a multi-millionaire due to his invention of the iToilet -- an application for the iPhone that "leads you via GPS to the nearest acceptable toilet wherever you are in the world -- but lost his fortune to Bernie Madoff's Ponzi scheme and his divorce from wife Amanda.
Cosmo Kramer:
Still, after at least 20 years, lives at 129 West 81st Street, apartment 5B (minus one year for jail time in 1998-1999). He still has unabated access to Jerry Seinfeld's apartment across the hall in 5A; entering unannounced as he pleases. Kramer fancies himself a great babysitter and seems to have had his feeling hurt by Elaine Benes for not asking him to look after her daughter.
Newman:
Appears to still live at 129 West 81st Street, Apartment 5E. Still has a disdain for his neighbor, Jerry Seinfeld, but still shows up at Jerry's apartment despite this fact.
Jerry Seinfeld:
Still resides at 129 West 81st Street, apartment 5A; which officially means he's lived in the same apartment for the last 20 years.Over the last few years Jerry has upgraded to an iPod controlled music system, a flat screen television with an extensive DVD collection and a flat screen desktop computer.
