Working together in comedy can be a kind of awkward thing, as it seems that everyone has a slightly different way of doing things. A movie or TV series can be extremely collaborating and encourage members of the cast and crew to contribute to their own ideas, while another can limit everyone to follow a person's vision or a small, chosen group with a specific vision. Conflicted ego and ideas can make things even more ordinary, and that time "Seinfeld" The guest starvet has taught the hard way that the series is a baby on the Starvest Jerry Seinfeld, which meant it was not so eager to listen to suggestions.

In the fiercely ridiculous episode of the "Strike" festival, Elaine (Iaulia Louis-Dreyfus) is hit by a man wearing a denim vest in Dentist Dr -Tim Whitley (Brian Cranston) Hanukkah's party, encouraging her to give him a false number. This leads to a rather unpleasant interaction when she actually needs his help later, but it's pretty funny because he wears even more denim. In fact, he is in full Canadian tuxedo with Texas-on-Denar.

The man known best as a "denim vest" (his real name is Steve) is one of the unforgettable one -off characters in the history of Seinfeld, and he played perfectly by Canadian comedian Kevin McDonald. Unfortunately, as McDonald shared over the years, Seinfeld himself was not very open to artistic contribution. (Or even taught the names of one's own guest starvet!)

In an interview for 2010 with To the clubMcDonald revealed that his interactions with the show's Starvers were not so friendly. (It is worth noting, however, that the comedian also told CBC That Seinfeld was "very nice" to him 10 years later.) He explained that while filming his outdoor scene with Louis-Dreyfus, he tried to give some-very unwanted-entrance:

"Two of the writers were with him, and he was not satisfied with the joke, so he and the two writers started turning jokes. I just returned to the days of the" children in the gym "when we were in the room like a communal species, so without thinking, I offered one. Seinfeld turned and looked at me and said, "Noooo." (Laughs.) And then he went back to his writers and they held the jokes of jokes. "

McDonald, the usual Canadian, understood this pretty well, saying he realized that he had "overdone the boundaries" and that he had totally understood. While Seinfeld was certainly under fair stress as the show -show followed The Creator of the Series Creator Larry DavidHe shouldn't have been so rude to McDonald's yet. After all, McDonald was already a successful comedian in his ownership as one part of Comedy sketch of the kids in the gym, And he was just trying to help.

In an interview with AV Club, the interviewer noted that the comment on the episode, Seinfeld is sounding a grill and says something similar to "UG, this man" when McDonald appears on the screen. McDonald said he didn't really think of an offense, but he clearly annoyed Seinfeld some. He also noted that Seinfeld did not even take time to learn his name, constantly calling him "Dave" during the rehearsals. (Dave Foley, another Starwar of "Children in the Hall", was regularly on television on the NewsUs radio series). Whether it was deliberately trying and hurting McDonald in some way or simply an indication that Seinfeld really "knew only one child in the gym", as McDonald joke, just joking Seinfeld.

In any case, the "strike" is One of Seinfeld's best episodes For many reasons, and the Texas element is absolutely one of them. Combined with the wild opening of Cranstone and Jerry Stiller as Frank Kostanza handing everyone to festivusIt is an episode of rest that must be seen, which stands above the others. And A-taught it all, unless you don't have an incredible amount of congestion to get it out, don't try to wear denim-on-denar.
