Is Jerry Seinfeld breaking out of jail to return to television?
NBC is springing him from the big house to bring us Jerry’s first ever reality series.
Tentatively entitled Marriage Ref, the show will feature a panel of celebrities, comedians, and athletes who will judge marital disputes and recommend conflict resolutions.
The show, however, is not intended to operate as therapy. It is strictly “comedic.”
Seinfeld will be teaming up with Oprah‘s Ellen Rakieten and NBC co-chair Ben Silverman said that while bachelorhood inspired Seinfeld, Jerry’s adventures in married life will serve as a muse to Ref.
Jerry will actually stay mostly behind the camera, operating as creator and executive producer, but will probably also cameo.
But while Seinfeld may be freed from his cell, we’re putting Jerry on probation. If this show flunks, it’s back to jail!
