Michael Richards’s Reality (Show) Bites
While Seinfeld alum Julia Louis-Dreyfus’s failed sitcom from last year, Watching Ellie, is being revamped and will start airing again next month, another Seinfeldian is also hoping to reinvigorate his TV career. We hear Michael Richards, otherwise known as Kramer, has been shopping around a quirky reality show in which cameras would follow him around and film some of his daily encounters. His agent, Andy Cohen of ICM, tells us it’s not a reality show à la Anna Nicole Smith, because it won’t focus on his day-to-day life but would be limited to comic encounters (i.e., visiting a doctor or getting his car fixed). Cohen says Richards is in final talks with a cable network—but one top Hollywood exec who has seen a pilot of the show thinks it’s a clunker, and just a rehash of the Kramer character. The pilot includes Richards suffering from poison oak and getting a bee stuck up his nose while hiking. “He goes to a grocery store and tries to get ointment,” our source reports. “He walks up to the counter and some guy yells at him for cutting the line, but he’s like, ‘I need something for my face.’ He gets some white pasty ointment and he puts it all over his face . . . Then he gets back into his car, and he’s in a convertible, and something flies in his face, so then he can’t see and he almost crashes. It goes on and on. It’s horrifying.” Cohen says what our source saw was real: “All he planned on doing was going hiking.” He adds, “It’s hard to describe because it’s different. Charlie Chaplin worked without scripts. Larry David works without scripts. They just have scenarios.”
