What's your favorite commercial featuring an actor from Seinfeld (either a regular or supporting player)? There are so many to choose from: Jason Alexander's "Pretzel Boy," Michael Richards for Pepsi, Julia Louis-Dreyfus for hair care, Jerry himself for American Express--even Patrick Warburton (Puddy) in a Cadillac spot.

Personally, my favorite is Wayne Knight's Frosted Cheerios spot, part of "this box never closes" series. He is positively Newmanesque at the end, when he yells "Jackpot!"

A close second is a brief (10-second) regional spot for the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York; Jerry Stiller and Estelle Harris (you know them as the Costanzas) argue off-camera whether they are to go see "Les Miserables" or "Phantom Of The Opera," while a small pug dog resignedly lies on a chair. He's apparently heard it all before.

Let's hear your favorite--or least favorite.

the best has to be Puddy as the voice of Superman in the AmEx commercial with Jerry.

I like the supermarket ad.

"Franks and beans?"
"Aisle 5."
"Beans and franks?"
"Aisle 7."

My favorite was a Michael Richards ad for Tommy Hilfiger which aired during the last winter. He was playing basketball and ended up hitting himself on the backboard-- genuine Kramer.

My favorite is the one that aired only in Europe because of its explicit content. If I remember Richards was the only one to show full frontal nudity.

I remember the add was for Dow Chemical and Explosives' European division. (I understand they're trying to unload a bunch of napalm on Western European militaries, and the ad was an attempt to show high tech military explosives as fun and necessary parts of our lives.)

WHAT??? It was bad enough when an episode intimated that Kramer wasn't wearing any underwear...
