Hi, all:
Last night I saw the episode in which Phil Bruns plays Jerry's dad. It reminded me of what I read about him in People magazine's special Seinfeld farewell issue. Apparently, Mr. Bruns feels he was axed from playing Morty in any future episodes because, according to him, he was "funnier than the star". It seems he thinks Jerry thought/feared he would be upstaged.
Anyone have any comments on this?
Thanks.
The guy wasn't very good.

I saw "The Stakeout" again last night too, I second that (Phil Burns wasn't very good).

Remember Phil from 'Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman'?
Wow, I write that Phil Bruns was on "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman" and then Phil Hartman dies!!
Yeah, but a clever attorney would point out that the gunshots played a bigger role.

Phil Bruns was *maybe* funnier than, oh, perhaps the fold-out bed he was planted in throughout his entire tenure as Jerry's dad. Maybe.
