過去進行式

I was jumping around and doing dances and all sorts of things for my mom.

There was a moment when I was in third or fourth grade, and I was in some school play and I was playing a queen, and I was supposed to faint.

I fainted and everybody left, and they weren't supposed to laugh.

But I didn't mind that they were laughing.

Hi, I'm Julia Louis Dreyfus, and this is my vanity fair career timeline.

I was thinking I don't have to go tonight, but I'm willing to go to the problem looking like this if you're willing to go with me.

I was going to school at Northwestern University and I was doing a show in downtown Chicago with the Practical Theatre Company between my junior and senior year of college and unbeknownst to me were the producers of SNL in the audience, and after that particular show ended, they came backstage and they offered all of us a job on Saturday Night Live.

The first sketch that I was ever in on SNL was a sketch, actually with Chevy Chase as the shark, but he was doing it remotely.

And so it's sort of like a like a television screen inside the mouth of a shark, and it was one of the candygram kind of thing I was.

I had really done very little professional theater on Lee Second City, Impractical Theater in Chicago.

I had no idea about this business of show.

It was a very male dominated, male centric environment there, in addition to the fact that everybody was completely high on any drug that they could get their hands on.

It was not exactly what I thought it was gonna be.

Larry, David and I were both at SNL together and he was there my third year.

We were both miserable together, and we bonded over our misery, and we've been miserable ever since.

I came back to host, I think, in 2006 and I was really quite happy to do it.

I mean, it was an interesting experience because I had been there, sort of like It's like going back to high school and being a able to relive certain moments that spin around in your head.

And furthermore, when I went back, it was being produced by Lauren Michaels on It was very female friendly.

They're old, They're so I had an absolute ball.

My big takeaway from being on SNL was that I was only going to do jobs that were pure fun.

From there on out, a simplistic isn't sounds.

That's not something that so he's so easily attained.

But that was my goal, and I have for the most part, all right, cause dances get it started.

Became involved with the Seinfeld Chronicles, as it was called.

And then it came to my attention that NBC had picked up this show, The Seinfeld Chronicles, for four episodes.

So I read a couple of the episodes and I thought, Oh, wow, this doesn't sound like anything on television.

It definitely had a different voice, a different rhythm than any sitcom at that period of time.

So I went in, I met with Yair and we got along really well.

And, of course, Larry was an old friend of mine.

I remember thinking back when we first started doing the show for those 1st 4 episodes, and I remember thinking this show is so good and the network is gonna be so stupid to cancel it, because I figure they would let it go.

You know, a four order four episode order is hardly a seal of approval from the network.

It felt like they were just burning off a commitment.

I just figured we were goners, but we weren't.

I had lots of thoughts about Elaine, and she was one of four characters, and it was very important to me that she was not just the girl and she wasn't written as the girl.

And so I sort of took that and ran with it.

This is probably not quite right to say that she was one of the guys, except she was a girl.

The Elaine dances from this episode called The Little Kicks, and it was just written that lane dance really badly.

And so the night before the table read, I have the script and frankly, I just stood in front of a mirror and tried to do movements that looked incredibly bad.

And I remember my mom was staying with with us at the time, and I came downstairs and I sort of auditioned these different different movements for my mom and my husband, and they all voted on the one that that that I did.

People approach me about the dance all the time.

I have many episodes that I loved, You know, We did that show for nine years and and it evolved so much over the tongue over that period of time.

So I mean, you know, early on, the episode, the deal, I love the soup Nazi.

I mean, it goes a Puerto Rican Day parade.

I have a 1,000,000 shows that I'm actually a fan of the show, so I like a lot of the episodes.

Jerry and I are really good friends and still are to this day and just to, you know, sort of harken back to what I learned in SNL.

We were having a really good time on that show all the time.

If it made us laugh, it made it into the show.

It was true of improvising, and we were just trying to make each other laugh.

And that was a really good shall we say equation for a kind of excellence.

I learned so much that I I learned about comedy other and more about timing.

It was just more training in performing and more training in frankly, even producing.

I didn't produce Seinfeld, but I watched so I learned a lot that I took with me moving forward.

My friends at Pixar invited me to come in and they wanted me to.
