NBC

In season 4 of Seinfeld, most of the series was was taken up with George and Jerry's attempt to get their sitcom off the ground.

Jerry and George decide to write a sitcom together that features themselves. George really wants the show to be about nothing - sound familiar? The trouble is, it's hard to sell a show to a network when it's not really about anything. In order to sell their script, pair come up with the idea to write in a rather unusual storyline.

They decide to sell the idea of the show being about Jerry being involved in a car accident and the judge ordering the other driver to become Jerry's butler. After George's tough negotiations, where he eventually gets less than NBC's original offer, the pair finally get to make a pilot... and then the show is immediately cancelled.

The pair seem the obvious choice to make a sitcom. Both Jerry and George are naturally funny. Jerry is a successful stand up, so much so he can buy his parents a Cadillac... twice. George, on the other hand, struggles to hold down a job for too long, but his dry, deprecating sense of humour is never wavering.

Let's find out if you can tell the difference between a joke that belongs to Jerry vs. a classic George wisecrack!
