There's been a stink on this show ever since the original one-camera pilot was torched last spring. Three former Seinfeld scribes were brought in to rescue the show. "There's no trouble here," a subdued Richards, 51, told the press last July. He hoped that critics and audiences would allow the show a bit of time to find its feet, reminding anyone within earshot that Seinfeld was a very slow starter. "It took me about 10 shows to get a handle on Kramer," he said. "Ten shows, I had the look. I pulled the sideburns down, I moved the hair up and I felt it. Ooh man, I was with it. "I know from experience that it takes a little time to get to that resonating experience," he said. "If this show isn't resonating in 13 (episodes), I say yank it." Spoken like a true Kramer.
