Hi All,
Talking about good and bad spin offs of the show. What About a spin off about the costanzas and their antics around the dinner table etc discussing braaaas & d cups & stuff - starring of course George, Frank & Estelle. I think it would be hilarious & all are fairly strong characters.
What do you think?

I wouldn't watch it. I always thought the Frank character was way overplayed. Estelle, OTOH, was, as most of Seinfeld, cast and played perfectly.
Frank lookalike character lives on 'King of the Queen'.

I used that joke on Brooklyn-Queens day...I said "so all the Queens in Brooklyn have off today?"...yeah, I was bored...
What is Brooklyn-Queens Day? Joemovie wrote in message ...
Brooklyn
A day when everyone in brooklyn and Queens has off to celebrate the joys of living in brooklyn and queens...yeah, it's like celebrating Nixon's birthday just for the day off...
Whoa... I thought it had something to do with Brooklyn guys wearing dresses and make-up. You almost blew my mind there!

But that's my joke...a couple of posts ago...
No character on Seinfeld could carry their own show...they were all made to interact together. Think if Jerry had been the main focus of the show and Kramer, Elaine, and George were just characters who were there for laughs and never had any real plots for themselves, the show wouldn't have been as great...it's just the way it is. Each character works great with each other. By themselves, forget it. It would never work...it would be gone quicker than "Tucker"...and probably just as bad...
Of course, that's only my opinion...but I stand by it...

That is more than just an opinion. You are absolutely correct. All great novels, plays, movies, and literature incorporate the elements of the human psyche through the interplay of characters, each representing, usually one, aspect of an individual's personality. The classic example we all recognize is The Wizard of Oz in which Dorothy's friends represented the Intellectual, Emotional and Physical.

I think they were used too much in the show. They were funny at times, but Frank was *too* loud, and the only reason for including them was to humiliate George even more. The Costanzas were a great vehicle for George's faces of desperation, and not much else.
Since Jerry Stiller is now the Dad on King of Queens, I doubt he has any intentions of being on another sitcom and I doubt he'd attempt to work on TWO shows at his age. Yes??
