Louis-Dreyfus says there??�s no Seinfeld??� curse - TV COMEDY




Louis-Dreyfus says there??�s no Seinfeld??� curse

Actress will return with New Adventures of Old Christine??�

PASADENA, Calif. - Seinfeld curse? What Seinfeld curse?

My short answer is I have no worries about that because I??�m on a heavy dose of antibiotics right now, actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus said Wednesday.

With that, she deflected questions about the inability of former Seinfeld cast members to have much television success after that NBC hit ended its run. Louis-Dreyfus??� own Watching Ellie is in the wastebasket of failed shows.

You just have to keep trying, said Louis-Dreyfus, who is portraying a divorced mom in The New Adventures of Old Christine, which will premiere on CBS this spring.

Her goal isn??�t to find a different character from Elaine, just to find someone funny, the 45-year-old actress said.

I think the difference with this character is that perhaps she??�s a little more grounded and perhaps she??�s a little bit more real in a way that Elaine wasn??�t, she said. But I would say that she has a pathetic quality that is similar, frankly. So set your TiVos.

Her 8-year-old son found it a little odd to watch his mom onscreen kissing another 8-year-old boy, she said.

He??�s subsequently gotten over it, she said. He knows I love him.
