Jerry Seinfeld has hinted at a reunion of his hit 90s sitcom more than 25 years after the show aired its controversial finale. 

The comedian, 69, was fielding questions from the audience during his standup show at the Wang Theatre in Boston on Saturday.

He was asked whether he liked the ending of the beloved sitcom, to which he responded: ‘Well, I have a little secret for you about the ending. 

‘But I can’t really tell it because it is a secret.’

In a clip shared to Instagram from the event, the on-screen star elaborated: ‘Here’s what I’ll tell you, but you can’t tell anybody. 

‘Something is going to happen that has to do with that ending. Hasn’t happened yet.’

The teaser was met with gasps and applause, as Seinfeld continued: ‘And just what you are thinking about, [co-creator Larry David] and I have also been thinking about it.’

He concluded: ‘So you’ll see, we’ll see.’

New York City-based Seinfeld ran for nine seasons on NBC from 1989 to 1998, with the finale watched by a whopping 76.3 million viewers. 

In the divisive two-part ending, Seinfeld and his friends – Elaine Benes (Julia Louis-Dreyfus), George (Jason Alexander) and Kramer (Michael Richards) – were put on trial for making jokes and not intervening during a mugging.

Past characters were then brought into the courtroom to testify against the group before they were all put behind bars.

But viewers have often criticized the ending with Seinfeld himself expressing regret following the widespread backlash among fans.

During an interview at the New Yorker festival in 2017, he said: ‘I sometimes think we really shouldn’t have even done it.

‘There was a lot of pressure on us at that time to do one big last show, but big is always bad in comedy.’ 

It is not the only 90s sitcom to be making a comeback in recent weeks.

On October 12, Cheers spin-off Frasier is set to make a return to screens when a new revival of the hit show makes its debut – with leading man Kelsey Grammer once again taking on the role of psychiatrist Dr. Frasier Crane. 

The reboot will see Frasier returning to Boston after upping sticks from his beloved Seattle – with a description of the show revealing that the psychiatrist is entering the ‘next chapter in his life’ where he will face ‘new challenges’. 

Kelsey, who is an executive producer on the new show, told USA Today in February he was inspired by other reboots, including the Roseanne revival in 2018.

‘That made me think, “Well, maybe Frasier does have another television (life),”‘ he explained.

‘There’s always room for funny and Frasier is funny.’

Most recently, it was rumored that Baywatch could be returning to screens – with ‘talks’ for a reboot in the works.

The American hit series, which premiered in September 1989 and went on for 11 seasons until 2001, made international stars of David Hasselhoff and Pamela Anderson.

The action drama followed a group of lifeguards who patrolled the beaches of Los Angeles, California and Hawaii.
