There are so many great scenes involving Newman. A couple of my favorites are:

from "The Revenge": -Newman is on the roof. Kramer yells at him, "Well, what are you waiting for??!" He then says, "Ya wanna shoot some pool tonight?" Newman says, "I can't! I'm going to the movies!"

from "The Calzone": -George is in Newman's apartment. Newman is maniacally laughing. And as George leaves, Newman quickly stops laughing and reaches under his ass to reveal a fork.

There are so many more, but I'm too tired to list them.

The one where Kramer ask why Newman didn't invite him to his party and Newman respond by saying that his invitation must have been lost in the mail and then repeating "lost in the mail" making a funny noise while laughin...i'm dying every time i see this...

James a écrit :

The part when Kramer adopts the road and Newman is sing "once, twice three times AGHHHH" and starts screaming when the road catches fire.

Another good one is when Newman gives Jerry the reverse third degree at the post office.

And when Newman starts talking about why mailmen go nuts "cause the mail never stops, and then its publishers clearing house day and the barcode reader breaks..."

"Hear me, and hear me well, Seinfeld. Your day of reckoning is coming, when an evil wind will blow through your little play world and wipe that smug smile off your face. And I'll be there, watching, watching, as it all comes crumbling down!"

I had that as my Fatal Error sound in Windows once. But it got very annoying, yet funny at the same time!

hoho

There is no doubt in my mind that the best Newman scenes were:

a) When he gave his account of the "keys" outside Kramer's door "yeh that's right, the keys" and

b) When he gave his explanation of Kramer's suicidal tendencies because he was unable to become a banker.

- lol... that scene just *sounds* hilarious. i've always been a fan of that kind of random humor... a fave scene of mine is in the betrayal when newman gets his wish for a model/girlfriend, and she's fascinated by his job at the post office. (paraphrasing): "another fact about zipcodes...they're meaningless!" -al

How about when Newman is "pulling the strings for Kramer" with regard to Pam, and Jerry confronts Newman in the hallway about it. Newman is laughing devilishly ("I'm your only chance!..."), but quickly stops when Jerry shoots him a threatening look. Hilarious!... sounds like he's choking for a moment.

Don't forget the scene where Kramer's feeding lines to Newman at the record dealer's shop, "I loathe you!" and like that. Anyone got the whole thing? ("You emit a foul and unpleasant odor. [Etc.]" Something like that.)

TESTIMONIUM CLINTONIUM, circa A.D. 66(?): About this time there lived Clintus, a wry man, if indeed one ought to call Him a man. For He was one who performed surprising misdeeds and was a teacher of such people as accept his untruth gladly. He won over many
Newman: Because the mail never stops.  It just keeps coming and coming and
                coming, there's never a let-up.  It's relentless.  Every day
it
                piles up more and more and more!  And you gotta get it out but
the
                more you get it out the more it keeps coming in.  And then the
bar
                code reader breaks and it's *Publisher's Clearing House*
day!!! ...

Also, from the episode where he is helping Kramer win over Jerry's girlfriend Pam:

"There's no such thing as junk mail...." The whole tirade he starts feeding Kramer before Kramer smacks him through the bookshelf is hillarious. Also, from the same episode when he and Jerry are chasing each other through the hallways of their building...too funny.

I think Newman's funniest moment was when Jerry revealed the flawed
logic behind his choice for millenium party, and in response, Newman
just honked.  I remember absolutely rolling with laughter when that
happened.  And I got another huge chuckle when they replayed the "honk"
after the closing credits.  Unfortunately, I believe it was Veronica's
Closet that got the benefit of those laughs, like Bania performing after
Jerry.

Here's some of the record-shop scene I realized I have in a .wav file. Anyone got the rest of the dialogue?

Kramer, feeding lines to Newman: "You emit a foul and unpleasant odor."

Newman to record-shop dealer: "You emit a foul and unpleasant odor!"

Record-shop dealer: "Oh, is that right?"

Kramer, still right behind Newman: "I loathe you."

Newman: "I loa-oa-oa-oathe you!"

I am sure someone has posted this before or there is an FAQ but hey I will become flame bait here and ask:

Anyone know exactly how many episodes Newman has been in?

How about: "Just remember one thing Seinfeld, when you control the mail you control information" I love that line because Newman goes all red, and if you watch Jerry (his back is towards the camera) you can tell he's laughing cause his whole body is shaking.
