Not surprising at all, Costanza was one of the slimiest characters in tv history!

One of my co-workers was hatching a plan yesterday that reminded me of a Kramer/Newman scheme.

While at lunch eating wings he told me he tracked down a guy that had the inside connection on buying restaurant quality ranch by the 5 gallon bucket. Hidden Valley is too thick and the restaurants get it juuuust right.

Wanted to know if I was in.

Richards wasn't really a comedian. He was a comedic actor.

Anyone hear remember "Friday's", ABC's answer to Saturday Night Live?

He was in the sketch of Andy Kaufman's staged fight on the show immortalized in "Man On The Moon".

The network should've done a spin off series and simply called it "Kramer." I believe this would've been as good as "Frazer" when it spun off of Cheers!

Man, I miss Seinfeld!

He was 40 years old when he was cast on Seinfeld. It was 7 years later for the "incident".

Kramer is a dude doing a 90's impersonation of Reverend Jim.

Christopher Lloyd was much better.

His career wasn't ruined early. He sucked at stand-up. He was never going to be anything other than Kramer




This.

The man had zero heckler jokes ready? You've got to have that ready. Got to expect drunks and heckling and be ready. Can't just go stright "n-bomb" and lynching remarks.

His career had peaked just like all of theirs has. But he did cost himself a few roles. There is no Veep in his future. Hell maybe he could have been Saul on Breaking Bad? Just a comedic actor and sketch comedy actor. He will never get anything.

He was on Night Court for one episode. Basically played the same character, but funny there too.

Just watched it on your advice, pretty good stuff.


The whole thing at Jay Mohr's house was weird but I guess the whole point was to get in a joke about Jay having a gay dog.
