Re: Your favorite NON-recurring Seinfeld character...
[ QUOTE ]
Hpothetical: Starting in the Fall, the entire main cast of Seinfeld (Jerry, George, Elaine, Kramer) and most smaller parts (parents, Newman, etc.) as well as the writers, sign on to resurrect Seinfeld. The story picks up right where it left off, after they finish their prison terms from the finale (shudder). Could they make it work? Would it become a hit again? Would you watch? [/ QUOTE ] Definitely. If the finale was any good then I'd say just let it be though. |

Re: Your favorite NON-recurring Seinfeld character...
Bookman is obviously great, some others I liked:
- The close talker (Judge Reinhold) - The doctor in the Hamptons who thinks everything is breathtaking (Elaine, the ugly baby, the eggs) - Bubble Boy |

[/ QUOTE ] I guess technically you covered Larry David with the "writer" clause, but not mentioning him specifically is a pretty big oversight. To answer your questions, yes, because it'd be like a network CYE - like most of Seinfeld, surprise! - and so it would still be good. |

The guys from the Astros' front office who call each other bastard and son-of-a-bitch all the time. Kramer's intern. [/ QUOTE ] Both are awesome calls, |

If I had to come up with an annoying tv persona to get airtime on a poker telecast, it would certainly be
"that's another one fOR MILOSSSHHHHH!" |

Larry David was a huge influence on Seinfeld, but the show also got freer after he left - they really began experimenting. Some of the shows totally missed, but some of them were great. As for some others, unfortunately the Maestro was so great they used him twice. The Plaza Cable guy was pretty funny - FDR was one I forgot for my list too. The guy from the phone company when Elaine gets her area code changed has a classic line - "Look, I'm from the phone company - I spend a lot of time dealing with semantics. So I won't be drawn into your maze of circular logic." |

Re: Your favorite NON-recurring Seinfeld character...
Both may be more than 1 ep, but:
Best not yet mentioned: Lloyd Braun Worst not yet mentioned: The Maestro [ QUOTE ] Kramer's intern. [/ QUOTE ] OT: I netflixed the first (and only) season of Action from about 10 years ago, and I was surprised to see Darren the intern was in it - I didn't remember him from the first time around. He plays a screenwriter named Adam, but everybody calls him Alan. IMO a very funny and underappreciated series. |

Re: Your favorite NON-recurring Seinfeld character...
I want to say the two gay guys who stole the armoire from Kramer in the Soup Nazi episode, but I feel like they might have appeared in another episode. The interactions between the two of them and with Kramer were hilarious.

[/ QUOTE ] They're in at least two eps, cuz they were in the AIDS walk episode, probably three I feel like, but yea they're hilarious, I'm curious where the idea for their characters came from in Jerrys/whoevers life or whatever. |
