I'd never heard this before, but it seems like he'd be too old for the role. He's 5 years older than Michael Richards, 10 older than Seinfeld and 15 older than JLD and Jason Alexander. Richards already seems a little old compared to the rest, and George was supposed to be Jerry's old friend from growing up. I don't know, it just would have been a very different show with Danny.

I never liked Seinfeld and especially disliked Costanza, but I do have to admit that Jason Alexander is a genuinely talented actor. He has been superb in everything else I have seen him in.

You can tell just by watching interviews with Jason Alexander that he’s a brilliant man. He seems to speak in fully-formed paragraphs.
