The 57-year-old recently suggested that watching reruns of Seinfeld brings back unpleasant memories. Seinfeld&amp;#039;s gameshow The Marriage Ref is expected to return for a second season on June 26 at 10/9c on NBC. &amp;amp;gt; Jerry Seinfeld: &amp;#039;Comedy helped me rebel&amp;#039; Watch a clip of the faux Seinfeld reunion on Curb Your Enthusiasm below:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
