They never showed his brother on the show or I dont know anything about him myself. I read in USA today that they want to hire Ben Stiller to play George's brother but that was about all I heard. If you didnt know, Ben Stiller is the real life son of Jerry Stiller, aka Mr Constanza..
Later
I've heard rumor folks that there is a plan to introduce George's SUCCESSFUL brother -- played by Ben Stiller. (Real life son of Jerry Stiller.)
I'm not sure if it's a good idea. How would they reconcile the fact that they've NEVER MENTIONED HIM once in the past 5 years? Especially since the Costanza's are always screaming about how UNSUCCESSFUL George is.
"Your brother would never leave a condom wrapper in our bed!" "Your brother's friends would never take my TV guide!"
We'd have to rewrite the WHOLE SERIES!
BTW -- Glad to be here. Seinfeld is an all-time classic show. I'm sure I'll have fun batting it around with you all!

Jon,
It seems like sitcoms always try to come up with something that will get the regulars to tune in along with others that watch occasionally. Plus it will give us more to talk about!

welll, what about elaine's brother?

George has mentioned his brother, loosly quoting from The Parking Space, "Nobody in my family ever pays for parking, not my Father, not my Brother. It's like a sickness."
I do agree with you though, Frank and Estelle would have pushed this in George's face every second that they could. How could they possibly resolve this? Maybe a long lost, was down in the dumps but finally made it type of successful brother?

Yup, I'm sure it was Brother. Here's another sibling question, does Elaine request that her sister help her catch the new owner of Monks in hiring only large breasted women?

I would LOVE to see Ben Stiller as George's brother. I think since this is the last season (prob.) it would be a great time to introduce him. He could be exactly like George, only younger, better looking, more sucessful, more hair, and has more luck with the ladies. That obviously, would piss George off. And maybe Elaine could have a thing with him. HA! That would REAlly get Georgie boy mad!

George made reference to having a brother in the episode where he goes to a psychic to determine if he should go on a trip or not. It was episode 15, "The Suicide." George was seeing a psychic and she said something about a woman's name and he replied, "My brother once got a woman named Paula pregnant."
This was the only time I recall George mentioning a sibling.

Here's another reference to a brother:
My father didn't pay for parking, my mother, my brother, nobody. It's like going to a prostitute. Why should I pay for it? If I apply myself, maybe I can get it for free." - George, in "The Parking Spot"
