MUMBAI: It has been several years since Seinfeld left television screens in the US. Now NBC has announced that it will celebrate the best memories of the classic comedy with a special The Seinfeld Story, which will air on 25 November.

The special will be telecast in high definition. As a result of new film transfers, this will mark the first time that Seinfeld has ever been broadcast on HDTV. The TV special will coincide with a special edition DVD release.

 
Jerry Seinfeld will host the TV special. Fellow cast members Jason Alexander, Michael Richards and Julia Louis-Dreyfus, as well as co-creator and executive producer Larry David Curb Your Enthusiasm will all be interviewed.

During the interviews, each cast member will talk about the series' genesis and concentrate on the first four years when Seinfeld formed its unique style until it emerged as an acclaimed comedy classic.

Seinfeld ran from 1989-1998, primarily on Thursday nights. In India the show aired on Zee English. Dubbed "the show about nothing," the program earned a total of 10 Emmies and 70 nominations.
