We only remember personalities and specific details about main characters from a very small percentage of shows once they’ve been off the air for a few years.
It’s an even smaller percentage of shows in which we very vividly remember random side characters.
Apart from Newman, some of my favorites include George’s parents Frank and Estelle Costanza, David Puddy, Uncle Leo, Dr. Tim Whatley, Mickey, Jackie Chiles, J Peterman, the Seinfeld’s, the Soup Nazi, Susan Ross and so many more.
Seinfeld has so many incredible side characters that still feel so real and so quotable more than 20 years after the beloved comedy went off the air.
