I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before (I've been away for a week or two), but did anybody notice the list of other 'personalities' for Kramer? In the second half of the LA show when the cop accuses Kramer of commiting the murders ("you saw a pretty flower, and you had to strangle the life out of it, didn't you?"), Kramer says "you've got the wrong man", the cop then lists Kramer's other personalities: the Wiseguy, the Little kid, the Bellhop (and several more that I can't recall). Sounds like previous characters that Michael Richards has played! The Wiseguy and the Little Kid from 'Fridays', the Bellhop from Transylvania 6-5000... can anybody identify the others?

Sorry if this was obvious (or pointed out before), but I thought it was kinda interesting.

So who else here likes to sleep 'untucked'? (It frightens me, every episode I find something more I have in common with George!)

I liked his role in Wierd Al Yankovics movie UHF. Stanly Spudowski's playhouse and the scene's with his kidnappers were great.

THATS RIGHT!!! I was wondering why Kramer always looked so familiar!!! I remember watching UHF and thinking to myself "this movie sucks but that one character should have his own TV show."

He is great in this film!!

the rest sucks.

Correct me if I'm wrong and I haven't seen this mentioned here... But wasn't Michael Richards on Saturday Night Live as a cast member a while back? That's where I seem to remember him from, or am I thinking of a totally different show in the same realm. Where did he first show up on TV? Somebody must know this.

Michael Richards was a regular on the old ABC show Fridays. The only other cast member I can remember was Melanie Chartoff (she now plays the principal on that hit Fox show "Parker Lewis Can't Lose") One of his characters was this young kid who used to dress up in an army outfit (complete with helmet) and play army with his GI Joes.

This is off the subject but....

Charles Rocket, David (Bruce Willis) Addison's brother on Moonlighting, was another regular Friday's cast member until he uttered the four-letter word for intercourse on the air (it was live show remember) in the "Who shot C.R." skit. This was of course right after Dallas had its "Who Shot J.R." episode.

This wasn't on "Friday's". This was on "Saturday Night Live". The short, blond, chunky lady that plays Martin's secretary in "Dream On" was a cast member then too. Charlene Tilton was the guest host for the episode. I remember all this because they just showed it on Comedy Central recently.

Exsqueeze RJ, Charles Rocket was in the dreaded second cast of Saturday Night Live, and issued his career-delaying utterance there. Other Friday cast members included: Darrel Igus, John Roark, Mary Edith Burell, and Micheal Blankfield. The show originated from LA, with Jack Burns, (who at one time replaced Don Knotts in the Andy Griffith show), as producer. The big flap on Fridays was a staged/actual on-air fight between Burns, and the late comedian Andy Kaufman.

His scenes with the kidnappers?????? What about "you get to drink from the FIRE HOSE!!!!!!!!!" or his discussion about life and its similarities to a mop. That was classic.

Did anybody see the movie "Young Doctor's In Love" ?

Kramer played Malamud. He was a hitman from Rhode Island (I think) that was brought in by the Galantino family to execute Sal Bonafetti.

Yeah. In that movie (young doctors in love) he has to pee while lying down on a hospital cart to put out a bomb in his bed pan.

Good movie. I don't think he had any other lines other than groans and growls.

I realize that this has been brought up before, but is anyone out there considering putting together a FAQ. Someone a while back seemed to have started one on Kramer, but I havn't seen it since its original posting. After all (and I don't mean to offend anyone here), I believe that this is about the 6th time that it has been mentioned that Kramer also appeared in UHF and in Young Doctors in love.

Again, I hope some of the big Seinfeld fans out there pick up the torch and get a FAQ posting(s) going.
