Elaine Benes (or at least the concept of a female lead) was the one firm note NBC had for Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld when they moved from a pilot to a series, and in this one instance, the network was right. As played by Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Elaine was indispensable to Seinfeld. Speaking for the DVD release in the early 2000s, Jerry described her as “the pearl that smoothed over all this…rough, kind of low-minded behavior of the other three characters,” and quoted David as saying, “She gives the show luster.” But it wasn’t a luster that would survive David’s departure.
