Delicate genius Jennifer Keishin Armstrong did some research and, yada yada yada, produced a spongeworthy book entitled “Seinfeldia: How a Show About Nothing Changed Everything”. If gifts were exchanged on Festivus, this book is one that would not be re-gifted. I suppose if you have had a tough year, like maybe a bad breaker-upper gave you the “It’s not you, it’s me” routine, or maybe the dingo ate your baby, you could gift this fine book to yourself, not that there’s anything wrong with that. It might be fun to meet your friends at the coffee shop and read it aloud. I would suggest getting there early, or there will be no soup for you. Perhaps reading about one of the best shows in TV history would help you find serenity now. At least, it should help you to be master of your domain, or queen of the castle, whichever the case may be. It doesn’t matter if you are an anti-dentite, double dipping, hipster doofus afflicted by the jimmy leg, Seinfeldia will appeal to anyone who has watched the show. Don’t worry about shrinkage, the book will stay about the same size as a small marble rye. Seinfeldia does a pop-in behind the scenes of Seinfeld, and you can just imagine the author reaching up and pulling back the curtain with her big man hands. And then, Schmoopie, you get a good look at the process that produced a wildly popular show about nothing.
