At the taping, Hytner scored big as the annoying comedian. When he gave Jerry the suit and said, “And I don’t even want anything for it,” the crowd erupted. They knew what was to come and couldn’t wait. He then shrugged his shoulders and said that if Jerry wanted, he could take him out for a meal. The crowd ate it up when moments later, Hytner called up Jerry and asked if he could have his meal that same night.

After the taping, some of the other writers congratulated me, and I heard Larry tell Hytner that they had to get him back. (He did return four more times.) As a writer, I was very pleased that a character I’d created had made such big impression, but the actor in me was envious.

I tried hard to enjoy my day and forget that I was failing miserably, trying to get stories approved for my next script. When the taping was done, I knew the party was over. It was back to swinging and missing again and again. It wasn’t that different from acting auditions, but there was one big difference: I was getting a weekly paycheck.

I was elated that they did my episode. Seeing a Seinfeld with “Written by Fred Stoller” in the opening credits has to be the one thing that has impressed my mother the most. Using one of her favorite malapropisms, she told me it was “mind bottling.”
