It's Christmas time, so you know what that means: Time to celebrate Festivus for the rest of us! Fans of Seinfeld, and pretty much anyone that has a TV, remember this absurd new holiday created by Frank Costanza (Jerry Stiller), which brought on plenty of laughs and has been making us all crack up ever since the episode "The Strike" aired. As hilarious as it was for us, star Julia Louis-Dreyfus had trouble keeping it together while filming the Festivus dinner scene. Thanks to some outtakes and bloopers from this episode, we can enjoy the Veep actress breaking character!

writers recently opened up about these outtakes, explaining how it was hard to be angry with Julia since she's so funny and likable.
"When shooting 'The Strike,' one of my favorite things, in hindsight, that used to happen is when it was very late at night Julia Louis-Dreyfus would get the giggles and it was usually the last or second to last scene of the night," writer Alec Berg revealed, according to UPROXX. "She would start to laugh and part of me was like, 'Ugh, dammit, we gotta get this done so we can go home and get a few hours of sleep before we have to come back tomorrow morning and start all over again.' But her laugh is so infectious and so enjoyable that everybody else would just start laughing, and I can't even remember what the line was."
Episode writer Dan O'Keefe added: "The Festivus dinner scene took something like six hours to shoot."
We hope this video helps you enjoy your Festivus holiday this week!
