Jimmy hated Mel Torme's cameo appearance on Seinfied. Jimmy liked it better when Mel Torme appeared on Night Court. Jimmy liked it because Harry the Judge idolized him for years before he appeared. Jimmy thinks Mel Torme sold out for Seinfield.

Yeah, it seemed like a total whore thing to me too. And just to confirm my theory, did you see the Mountain Dew ad after the show? Mel again!

I loved how they managed to get a Mel commercial aired during this segment!

More than selling out for Seinfeld, Jimmy couldn't help but notice the conveniently timed "Dew" commercial starring "the Velvet Fog." Jimmy thinks Torme is trying to make the same kind of come-back that Tony Bennett did. -=--- TRANSMITTED via LiveWire, a Virtual Valley/Metro Newspapers service San Jose, Calif.

Yeah! What a jerk! Why does he deserve to promote his career! [remove tongue from cheek!]

Uhh...then why didn't he: a) sing, b) do it on MTV?

That whole Tony Bennett thing was a Gen-X joke anyhow. They thought: "It's hip to like Tony Bennett because my peers have no real idea who this guy is and don't know shit about jazz singing anyway." (I didn't say it had to be logical!) Believe me, it won't happen again with a jazz singer. It did happen with Monks so maybe an untalented gossip show host playing keyboards is next. Anyway, gotta go watch Entertainment Tonight! ;?)

Mel Torme was on Night Court about a half dozen times. He likes to keep a high profile.

Lee sez:

Hmmm...

It seems to me that Me Torme used "Seinfeld" as the vehicle by which he introduced himself in a new commercial plugging Mountain Dew!

The whole Jimmy thing was quite silly, I thought. What is it with Mel Torme, though? Ever since Night Court, the Velvet Fog has experienced a real surge in popularity. He should kiss the ground Harry Anderson walks on.

I like old Mel, though. Do we have any Fog fans out there?

Nope. Dishheads, dishheads, roly poly dishheads! Lick a toad, go to jail. See Spot run. See Spot Dick Jane.

Jimmy was funny for a while, but I did get old fast, especially after George got into it...
