GGT>I think you're REALLY stretching here. "Six is good" is a very common GGT>response to "What time should I pick you up?" or "What time do you want to GGT>eat?" Why does it necessarily have to be stolen from a movie? And GGT>doesn't Jerry have a tendency to repeat things?

In the context that Jerry used it, however, it didn't work that way.

MO>Doesn't Kramer look a lot like the Joker? His hair, face, smile, height, MO>even his walk. He's got this psycho image. I think Michael Richards MO>could do an interesting Joker. Picture him in green hair and white makeup MO>waving a gun in the air with his wide-eyed, crazed look. He's dangerous.

No one can beat the original... Jack Nicholson sure came close, though. How perfect can the casting get on that one? Michael Richards seems more the Riddler-type. Yup, he's dangerous... very, very dangerous!
