“Seinfeld” creator Larry David claims that Steve Bannon is still making money from the blockbuster series. A few days ago, Bannon accepted that he continues to benefit from royalties, but David doesn’t know anything about it.
Larry told Vulture he's a little upset and shocked by the report that Steve is cashing in on his hit series. It has now been confirmed that he earned over $30 million since 1998.

“Seinfeld” is a popular American show aired on NBC. The program ran from 1990 to 1998. David and Seinfeld joined hands for this project, and Castle Rock Entertainment financed it.
The story was written by Larry Charles, David Mandel, Max Pross, and Spike Feresten.
In 2009, the episodes "The Parking Garage" and "The Boyfriend" ranked number 4 on TV Guide's Best Episodes of All Time. The story is about Jerry and Elaine, who live a happy life together. Elaine is an attractive, beautiful, and glamorous woman. At the same time, she is arrogant and makes Jerry sad with her behavior. He is tired of her unusual actions and wants to move on in life.
On the other hand, Cosmo is Jerry’s next-door neighbor. He is a stylish man with extraordinary personality. He gets easily attracted towards young ladies. Jason Alexander plays Jerry’s best friend, George, who is dishonest by nature.
