Didn't KRAMER sublet his apartment from PAUL BUCHMAN (or someone from another sitcom, if not Paul)? I seem to remember an episode where Jamie (or the wife if another show) found out that he kept his bachelor pad but sublet it to Kramer. Then she made him give up the apartment, which prompted a visit by Paul to Kramer's apartment to turn over the lease. I don't remember if it was an episode of Mad About You or an episode of Seinfeld -- but it did happen that way, didn't it? I guess Paul must have lived there before Jerry moved in across the hall (?)

Yes Cosmo's apartment was/is Pual's. Now what *really* pisses me off is on an episode of Seinfeld George and Susan were watching MAD ABOUT YOU, when I first saw that episode I asked myself, "what the f*ck". Well after I recovered from that rather earth shattering blow there was an episode of the John Larroquette show were he was talking with Frasier on the telephone. You may ask your self what's wrong with this picture; everything. I remember quite clearly a scene where John talked about how much he hated "Cheers", and Frasier is of course a Cheers character. But back to Seinfeld lets trace the crossovers...

  • Mad About You > Seinfeld (The one you mentioned.)
  • Friends> Mad About You (Ursula is Pheboe's twin sister.)
  • Friends>Caroline in the City (Chandler and Joey with the help of

Ross's infant, try to seduce Lea Tompson.) 4. Mad About You>The Dick Van Dike Show (Petrie's fictious boss played by Carl Reiner shows up and makes remarks about how Paul and Jamie's banter sounds so familiar.) 5.Caroline in the City>The Dick Van Dike Show (Caroline buys a desk owned by a writer couple played by Rose Marie and Mory Amsterdam. Now I don't remember if they reprised their DVD roles, if not I guess this

is another continuity error.) 6.Friends>The Single Guy (Shwimer and Silverman couldn't resist .)

Now this one I am not certain of...

7.Caroline in the City>Frasier ( Just a feeling that I saw one like

that.)

If the last one is true, then we have the following...

8.Frasier>Cheers (Duh.) 9.Cheers>Wings (Frasier, Lilith, Clify and *NORM* have all visited the

island.) 10.John Larroquette>Frasier (Mentioned above.) 11.Cheers> The Tortelliees (Failed spin-off)

Sheeeeeesh! What the hell have these network suits done? Each of these links is as shaky as a leaf. Do they expect us to believe all of there best shows take place in the same universe, at least the writers of Seinfeld have not initiated any of these crossovers. Now that I have embarrased myself with an admission of my inane must-see-tv knowledge, I slither back to my couch and clicker. Better yet I should go outside for a change. :-)

It was an episode of Mad about You. Paul Reiser DOES make a comment to Kramer "Hey, what ever happended to that guy in the appartment?" (Points to Jerry's appartment door). Kramer responds "Oh, he's doing a pilot for NBC" (Reiser laughs).

So Paul probably lived there when Jerry did.
