I can only imagine Jason thinking (as he later said afterwards) "Where do I go from here?" and fate was looking down at him and saying "Are you kidding, this is only the beginning."
Yeah, he was great in Seinfeld, but I sometimes wonder if the role of Costanza just fit him, and not the other way around. It's probably why after Seinfeld he didn't excel at playing anything else.
Jason won this award when he was just 29. He’s said that after he’d won, he didn’t know what to dream about anymore!
"just 29", I mean, you can win a Tony and be an adolescent, it's happened many times over the years.
One of the better off the cuff sincere speaches at the TONY'S. Cant believe out of 4 actors on Seinfeld he was the only one to never win an EMMY.
Martin Sheen never won an Emmy for West Wing. Both slights to Mr. Alexander and Mr. Sheen are ridiculous.
These awards are not measurement for much.
I'd rather have the Tony.
he was blacklisted
Technically Jerry didn’t win for acting. But for producing
It was the summer of George!

1989 was an amazing year for Jason apparently! Tony earlier in the year and then Seinfeld.
Jason is always on, just a consummate performer and entertainer
Jerry Shaunfeld? wow, that was prophetic
LOL.
Schoenfeld
yes Gary Signfield
great speech! love that man
He’s still with Daena. Lucky couple.
Yep. And still so as of this comment in 2024 which makes it 42 years and counting!
"I thought there would be more plumes."
I want what Jason and his wife have.
His parents in Florida!!..haha!
Jason Alexander’s wife bares a striking resemblance to Marisa Tomei!
Lol
Haha, I don't see that...but *_what_** a SMOKESHOW!!*
Tommy Tune was mentioned on “Seinfeld.”
Did anyone catch the ASL (American Sign Language) to his wife?
yes, the I Love You
0:16 Wow, his smile got progressively more unnatural and unsettling
Whaddya know? The straight guy won!
Jason should have won at least one Emmy for George, but his dream was to win a Tony, so I'm sure he's happy.
A Tony's better.

This guy doesn't age.
You know this is from 1989, right?
@@halvormyklebust897 ya he looked 60 at 29 .. lol
@@joeyodonnell123 lmaoo
So what if he has no Emmy? It's not like the other three have a Tony!
It's not like the other 3 are good enough actors to sing in Broadway musicals.
Jason Alexander walks like George Costanza...😄

what the fuck is this? dancing? isnt this George from sienfield?
He was a Broadway Star before he did Seinfeld.
