What's up with Seinfeld and Murphy Brown? In THE KEYS Elaine writes a script for the MB show and Kramer shows up as Murphy's secretary. In THE VIRGIN and THE CONTEST Jane Leeves who played Audrey on MB plays

I believe they were both NBC shows.

There appears to be a relationship. I never watched Murphy Brown; have they ever mentioned Seinfeld on that show?

Meaningless. Leeves now plays Daphne on Frasier, and ex-Seinfeld actors are now playing on what seems to be every show on television. Good actors find jobs.

If I had to come up with an Irish sounding name in a pinch, I might have chosen Murphy too.

A mere coincidence? I think so. [email] (Hammer nail here--> <-- for a new monitor.) Seinfeld FAQ http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Set/7217/faq.html

Much more than a coincidence, Ratboy if you disagree then you must be part of the conspiracy. Another episode THE PIE comes to mind, Jerry talks about the Charlie McCarthy hearings. Charlie McCarthy was Edger Bergan's puppet - Edger was Candice Bergan's father - Candice played Murphy Brown.

Jane Leeves' real life boyfriend is (or was, not sure anymore) Miles (Grant Shaud?)from Murphy Brown. Also, I think the two shows, although on different networks, might have been shot on the same lot.

SEINFELD was indeed filmed at CBS Studios even though it was a NBC program. MURPHY BROWN was probably shot right next to SEINFELD.

Shoot. He's on to me. What's my next move? Diversion. Where are those damned helicopters when you need them?

I watched "Men in Black" this weekend. Siobhan Fallon (who plays Elaine's roommate, Tina, in several episodes) was in the movie. Her husband gets taken over by an insect from space, and what do you suppose her hubby's name is? Edgar. (Cue the spooky music).

Now this gets real complicated. - MIB starred Will Smith who was in the NBC sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. Will Smith also had the hit song "gettin' jiggy wit' it , which Jerry referenced to in THE REVERSE PEEPHOLE when he said he wanted "to get jiggy wit' it" at Joe Mayo's party. Also, I believe The Fresh Prince was on Monday nights opposite ---- Murphy Brown. The plot thickens.

Murphy Brown was on CBS. There was a bit on Murphy Brown where someone (obviously Jerry Seinfeld) was trapped in a car with no brakes, and Jerry and Larry David appeared in a guest spot on Love and War, by Murphy Brown creator Diane English.

And Barney Martin (Jerrys father in the series) guest-starred on Murphy Brown as Franks father.
