You know, as a standup comedian, you know, you feel you’re getting a standing ovation. And that’s the time to leave. You don’t want to stay on stage too long. You don’t want to stay on like another fifteen minutes so they say ‘Oh he was good but he was on a little long.’

-Jerry Seinfeld on not continuing with a tenth season of Seinfeld.

May 31, 1990: Seinfeld Premieres on NBC

Watch the full Make ‘Em Laugh interview with Seinfeld Executive Producer George Shapiro here.
