You think some of the contestants on
Dancing with the Stars are terpsichordian-challenged, that they look like klutzes? Well, some do. And you might think you can guess that a guy like Jason Alexander would be a complete joke on the dance floor. After all, as George on
Seinfeld, did he ever seem like he could make it across the dance floor without tripping on his shoelaces?
Well, the man can move. On this week's episode of Bravo's
Step It Up & Dance, Jason Alexander will present his credentials as a guest judge. He'll challenge the contestants to do what he's done -- very successfully in his career -- learn musical theater choreography.

In a
TV Guide exclusive, Michael Ausiello reports that
The New Adventures of Old Christine could be moving to ABC if CBS doesn't give it a third season pick up. The way I see it, this is great news for ABC. They seem to do great at one-hour dramedies --
Ugly Betty, Pushing Daisies, Desperate Housewives -- but just swing and miss when developing good sitcoms. Only
Samantha Who has been a winner this year; its most recent effort,
Miss/Guided, has left me cold.

Seinfeld's George Costanza and Elaine Benes are reunited after almost a decade apart! Okay, the characters won't be back together on the small screen (although I still dream of some sort of
Seinfeld reunion special) but the actors will.
CBS announced today that Jason Alexander would be reunited with Julia Louis-Dreyfus in an episode of CBS's
The New Adventures of Old Christine.
Spoilers after the jump!Continue reading Seinfeld co-stars reunited on Old Christine

I'm a sucker for commercials. I think they're needed, and when they're done right they can sometimes be better than the shows they're inserted into. I also think they can tell more about a certain time than the shows themselves.
After the jump is a bunch of commercials from the 60s, 70, and 80s. Some you'll remember instantly, and some you'll see for the first time. Another reason to love the internets: commercials you thought you'd never see again can live on forever!

This is a public service announcement to Jason Alexander.
Life after Seinfeld has been really tough for you has it? I mean not as tough as Michael Richards who should follow Isaiah Washington into "pottymouth rehab", but you haven't exactly parlayed your existence into other gigs like Julia Louis-Dreyfus in The New Adventures of Old Christine. Our enthusiasm for the dimwitted loveable man has been curbed towards Larry David, who helped you become a star. Even the virtually unknown Seinfeld writer Spike Feresten has been able to translate writing his soup nazi episode into his own talk show.
All you have to work with is your short lived marriage to Britney Spears. Oh wait. That wasn't you either.

The guest train at
Everybody Hates Chris continues to chug along. First it was announced that
Whoopi Goldberg would appear in a couple of episodes of the Chris Rock-produced comedy. Now
comes word that Jason Alexander will be appearing in two episodes, playing the principal of Corleone Junior High, where the title character goes to school. He will also direct an episode.
Hm. I wonder if these high-profile guest spots are happening because stars saw the show last year and liked it, or is this an attempt by the producers to garner a bit of attention for a show that seemed to get lost in the shuffle last year? Not sure. But its Sunday at 7 timeslot isn't exactly going to encourage me to watch.
