Seinfeld Reunion on 'Regis & Kelly'; Another Round Of Network Orders and Cancelations

November 23 will be a big day for Regis Philbin, the world's biggest Seinfeld fan. Philbin and co-host Kelly Ripa will host the four stars of his favorite hit series in an exclusive, one-hour Seinfeld edition of Live with Regis and Kelly. Philbin - in his very own "Puffy Shirt" - and Ripa welcome Jerry Seinfeld, Michael Richards, Jason Alexander, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, in their only joint appearance promoting the release of the DVDs Seinfeld: Season Five and Seinfeld: Season Six.
 In addition to showing favorite clips and outtakes, Regis and Kelly invite the cast members to share memories and behind-the-scenes stories from their days on the set of the hit show. Seinfeld, Alexander, Louis-Dreyfus and Richards also reveal their favorite episodes, and talk about the on-going impact the show continues to have on fans today.

ABC has canceled the Thursday night drama The Night Stalker. A special edition of Primetime Live will air instead this Thursday at 9 p.m. The two weeks after that, ABC had already scheduled movies. Meanwhile, after a bad start NBC moved the Wednesday drama E-Ring from 9 p.m. to 8 p.m earlier this season. That was a good move as the show did a bit better there and has warranted a full season order of 22 episodes.
