This category applies to regular and nonregular characters on the show that march to a different drummer in the sense that they behave in 'an out of this world' sort of way.

My list:

Kramer, Frank Costanza, Jimmy, The Bubble Boy, The Mohel, Maitre'd at Chinese Restaurant Mr. Pitt J. Peterman The two who steal the amoir from Kramer The Soup Nazi Patrice, the accountant that dated George, The Russian author that threw the electronic organizer out of the limo window. Joe Davola Timmy who objects to double dipping Mr Bookman, the library cop Mr Hayman, George and Jerry's high school gym teacher Elaine's coworker that heckled Jerry during his act The nerdy guy that Elaine met on the subway, who later created a line of mannequins based on his memory of Elaine The temptress that George met on the subway, who confined him to the bed in the hotel room The fat nude guy that Jerry met on the subway Kenny Bania Marty, Kramer's dwarf friend

Wouldn't it be quicker to compile a list of normal characters?

Or how about Seinfeld from the "Mirror, Mirror" universe on Star Trek? They would be trying to assassinate each other....

Uh, yeah. And suddenly they've discovered that they've been living in Akron Ohio all this time. It was all an ILLUSION. "Zeeyow!!" -Kramer

Isn't that the Internet provider that doubles as a fire extinguisher? <g>

Cacophony Society?

I think Seinfeld ought to do one episode where he starts out making fun of those bizarre words in the English vocabulary that seem to have stuck around, rather than faded out with their cousins (like "thou", and "whom"). Take "cacophony" or "telephony". I'm sorry, but I'd have a tough time telling someone I was in the "telephony" business. "Yeah, it's not a *real* telephone company, but who cares? We get paid!"

I gather the theme of this thread is what Seinfeld characters could credibly appear on what Twilight Zone episodes.

How about George in the William Shatner role in the episode where Shatner is afraid of flying and sees an Abominable Snowman-like creature on the wing sabatoging the plane and he can't convince anyone of it because they all think he's paranoid and crazy?

Instead of an Abominable Snowman, George would see Lloyd Braun on the wing of the plane.

It wasn't an Abominable Snowman, it was a Gremlin, and I believe the episode's title was "Terror at 5,000 feet." This episode was re-done for the Twilight Zone movie, and there is an extremly funny parody on one of the Simpson Halloween specials, I believe that one is called "Terror at 5 1/2 feet."
