- Jerry Stiller 1927 - 2020
I stitched some clips together from the 'Inside Looks' on the DVDs as well as a few bloopers to showcase some of Jerry Stiller's work on the show from replacing another actor who originally played Frank, to his acting and line technique, to on set stories and outtakes from Season 4-9. Just a little tribute I made for the legend himself.
I love how every conversation between Frank and Estelle Costanza reaches maximum decibel level within five seconds.
God it literally just made me laugh out loud watching them in the hand scene
I always thought Frank & Estelle should have had their own show ---- like another versious All in the Family show --- would have been hilarious, with some supporting cast.
@@utubeDaveutube - While I think we all loved Jerry Stiller and Elaine Harris as Frank & Estelle Costanza, I'm not sure about a separate show just for them. Honestly, I don't think that would've turned out much better than "The Ropers".
We all know that the show "Seinfeld" went bye-bye because Jerry Seinfeld got tired and wanted to leave while the show was on top. Fine. Good for him. And while many just assumed that Jerry, Jason, Julia and Michael were every bit as close as Jerry, George, Elaine and Kramer, we know that that's NOT the case. Jason, Julia and Michael all respected the work they were doing with Jerry, but they all resented some of the moves that Jerry made that favored himself financially whilst damaging the others (ending the show prematurely and how the syndication revenues were structured). Obviously, with the show literally titled "Seinfeld", there was no mistake on who the top-billed star was, and of course the actors all knew this going into it. And, they never had a problem with it. But because Jerry Seinfeld had insecurities due to the fact that he had limited acting ability, he opted to go out of his way to remind the others what a big star he had become when the show became a hit. This was not only unnecessary, but it was also a vain and arrogant move on his part; and when he rigged the syndication deals the way he did, he lost his chance at true friendship with these actors. Oh sure, they'll say nice things about him professionally and praise the show, but personally, none of the others care to speak to Jerry Seinfeld. Mainly because they don't have to.
But, what I've always maintained is that when Seinfeld decided to cancel the show "Seinfeld", Jason, Julia, & Michael should've secretly called a private meeting and rounded up the writers they liked, producers, etc. and then reached out to Jerry Stiller, Elaine Harris, Wayne Knight, John O'Hurley, Patrick Warburton, & Phil Morris (amongst others) to all join in & create a new show in which they'd reprise their "Seinfeld" roles.
The premise would be that Jerry got transferred to a higher security prison because he touched off a riot with his "funny boy antics" and got beat up whilst performing his standup act in jail. George, Elaine and Kramer are still housed at the low-security jail and are eventually visited by folks like George's parents, Newman, Mr J Peterman, Puddy, & Jackie Chiles. The show would be a collaborative combination that both revolves around the lives of these friends, relatives and acquaintances living their own lives in NYC- seemingly without missing their jailed "friends/ relatives", whilst also showing glimpses of George's, Elaine's and Kramer's incarcerations. Eventually, Estelle Costanza cracks & can't take not visiting George, so she goes to visit him... RUINING the fact that he'd actually "found himself" in jail and was enjoying himself as he was finally getting the chance to live "the year of George". Conversely, Kramer is thrilled to be visited by Newman, and the K-Man actually convinces Newman to pay a visit to Jackie Chiles and pressure him. Chiles is SHREWDLY told that since he'd taken up a romantic relationship with Sidra (yes, Terri Hatcher reprises her role) - a witness to the prosecution- whilst the trial was ongoing, he'd breached his fiduciary responsibility as an attorney for the defense.... AND ... unless he goes before the judge and demands a MISTRIAL based on his "own compromised unprofessional conduct"... he'll see this brought to a judge's attention by an outsider (Newman) and his own client (Kramer) - which will be much worse for him - likely resulting in Chiles' not being able to avoid disbarment. Whilst this is all being considered, Elaine and Kramer are ecstatic about the prospect of being released, but George is not. However, George finds out that Susan's parents, Mr. & Mrs Henry Ross (Warren Frost & Grace Zabriskie) have hired their attorney Wyck Thayer (Bruce Davison) with their "many monies" to vigorously fight their release as they still think that George intentionally poisoned the wedding invitation envelopes.
Honestly, there's just so many ways they could move on this new show. For instance, Elaine had told Puddy at the trial's conclusion to "move on", where he simply stated "Ok". Perhaps in the new show we see him trying to relaunch himself on the NYC dating scene, hilariously dating some of Jerry's old girlfriends - who also recognize that he'd copied Jerry's "Move". And, perhaps we see J Peterman's catalog in decline because Peterman has lost his "pep"; only to realize that he misses Elaine - who had been his one true reliable employee, who he always kinda yearned for. Thus he starts visiting Elaine in jail to both cheer her up, but also to get catalog ideas. With Puddy not visiting Elaine, she's boosted by Peterman's interest in her, and the two start to have feelings for each other. Perhaps, she feels obligated to write Puddy a "goodbye letter" and inform him that he's been dumped (AGAIN!) and that she has a new "beau". Unlike in the past, this actually jolts Puddy; and when he comes to visit Elaine she's now suddenly torn between two men. To make matters more complicated Newman had told Kramer that he won't go to Jackie & threaten him UNLESS Kramer convinces Elaine to go out with Newman. Elaine totally balks at this, prompting her to join George in refusing to be released - figuring that she could use the alone time to sort out her life.
But Kramer... well... he gets released.
Upon Kramer's release we immediately see him relaunch Kramerica Industries; he tracks down his former intern, Jason, & the company takes off. Part of Jackie Chiles' conditional arrangement with the state of NY on keeping his license to practice law was tied to Kramer still wanting to retain him as his personal attorney. So in similar fashion to storyline for Jerry & George's NBC "Pilot" - where a court forced a man to become Jerry's "Butler", Kramer now has Jackie forced to be his unpaid attorney. Soon Kramer has opened a chain of pizza joints where the customer makes their own pies, he's back to developing "the bladder", "the bro / manziere", & the coffee table book, ... etc. Chiles is scrambling like a dog, and the money's rolling in at Kramerica! The K-man is on magazine covers, & he's throwing wild parties in Jerry's apartment. But, he's seen having less fun than guests like Newman, Tim Watley, the Soup Nazi, and yeah... even Mr. Bookman (the Library Cop) can't resist coming to Jerry's apartment and having a wild time - knowing & relishing the fact that Jerry is incarcerated. Eventually, Kramer realizes that his life is still empty, because neither Jerry, George nor Elaine are there to witness his success. Having gotten Newman laid at one of these parties, Kramer gets Newman to begrudgingly back off of his demands to date Elaine. With this new dynamic, we see Kramer finally convince Elaine to agree to being released. They then pursue George, who's begun to get paranoid that the Ross' are trying to get George shanked in jail, since they can't get him brought up on charges of murdering Susan; as such, he's now ready to cut short his "Year Of George" and agrees to being released. The three of them descend upon Monk's cafe for a celebratory meal with the logical next step being that they'll discuss a plan on how to get Jerry released. But, the mistrial declaration that had them all released isn't cut & dry for Jerry, since he got his sentence stiffened to a maximum security prison & got another year tacked on for inciting the riot. Soon, the discussion shifts to how none of them has actually really missed him. George & Elaine both claim to feeling "refreshed", & how they feel like they can NOW tackle the world, and that they realized that paling around with "that comedian", Jerry, all those years had just "held them back". Kramer asserts it, "I'm living proof! Look at me, look at Kramerica Industries- we're soaring!" Then in spectacular fashion the subject is changed, and he states, "You know, I could use a couple good minds like you. People I trust.... George, I always admired how you always knew where the cleanest restrooms were in the city! And Elaine, well I thought it was BOLD for you to create 'The Urban Sombrero'. And while that wasn't the right hat for Peterman's customers, it's exactly the kind of stuff we strive for here at Kramerica! Whatya say, will you two come work for me?" Smiles all around.
Cut to the back of "George Steinbrenner" in his office reading a newspaper article saying, "Well, I see Costanza's out of jail! Looks like he's cooking up some more lame-brained ideas. Can't believe I missed the boat in seeing what a moron he truly was. 'Big Stein' really messed up badly there, no telling how many more Pennants and World Series we'd have won!" Then immediately cut to the back of slender dark haired man behind bars in an orange jump suit looking at the same newspaper article chuckling, "Well, this just has 'Can't Miss' written all over it!"
The End.
Obviously, this could never be as funny or as good as the original Seinfeld series, BUT... Each of the actors who'd played "2nd Fiddle" (or lower) would get a chance to show their chops in a One-year/one-off series (perhaps simply called, "New York, New York") that would've tweaked Jerry Seinfeld both professionally and personally. And, you know who'd ultimately have to respect that? Jerry Seinfeld.
Jerry is the one who get me to laugh more quick than anyone
Jesus saves 🙂
The fact that Frank’s mannerisms we partly due to Jerry just trying to remember the lines makes it 10x funnier 😂
I wonder how they knew that?
@@edszewczyk they showed how. There were times he didn't manage to remember the line.
I lost my train of thought 😅
He had this halting. Way. Of talking.
George’s parents are the greatest side characters on any sitcom ever
Little did we know, they were integral and fully equally important to the comedy equation!
Obviously you’ve never watched Dawson’s Creek…
Definitely up there.
The Ropers would also be up there.
All the side characters on this show were so funny, they made this show the funniest show of all time
Don’t forget Newman or Mr. Peterman.
Jerry Stiller not only made Seinfeld hilarious, he was the reason why King of Queens was a major success as well.
Arthur Spooner is a classic narcissist. And hilarious.
Exactly.
And he also invented Charlie Brown.
Facts
Only reason I watched King of Queens
Kramer and Frank’s friendship was one of my favourite elements of Seinfeld.
Crazy is attracted to crazy 😄
Came here to comment the same thing. Kramer and Frank together are some of my favorite scenes.
Kramer stays over is allowed to bring women over but George isn't allowed 🤣🤣🤣
Magic
@@kittytheflcatmom9566agree!
The costanzas were the perfect triple act. They always bounced off each other perfectly
What

Mean?
And she never smiles
@@patrickwilliams6464 Nor laughs. Not a ha ha, not a tee hee...
@@thetemplelaboratoryWhatever you want it to mean…
Well, they got along smoooothly and they fucked insync! As it should be.
Oh those days... lol
“So let him have bananas on the side!” is one of my favorite lines in the entire series. Flawlessly delivered by Jerry Stiller.
Serenity nooww!!! is still my fave. What father of a crazy son, husband to a psycho wife hasn't screamed that?
And you want to be my latex salesman?
I nearly died after hearing that sentence
My favorite moment from him will always be when Mr. Steinbrenner is telling them how George is dead, and as Estelle is crying he just goes on a tangent about Yankees management.
Typical father behavior in the 50's and 60's.....
“DEEE-LI-VER IT TO HER!!!’” 😂🤣🤣🤣
Not only did I bust out laughing, but I immediately concluded that recasting the role with Jerry Stiller was a brilliant move.
Hahaha same here, I’m sure the other guy was a good actor, but he was no Jerry Stiller
One of the best lines of the series.
I love it so much. DEEEE-LIVER IT-TO-HERR
I think the best part about the "You want a piece of me?" scene is that Frank isn't even in the episode until the very end, and yet he steals the show.
I was in that show
RIP Jerry Stiller a gem, truly talented comedian
Exactly. I can not teach anybody anything, I can only make them think.
Dang, I forgot he passed away
Jerry Stiller is amazing. He said his life was disappearing as an actor reaching his seventh decade mark 😮 Wow, not many actors get to say that phrase! 😎
And Mira! ❤
Jerry just raizing his voice is just so funny. But also his intonation.
"My George isn't clever enough to hatch a scheme like this?"
I died laughing every time he said that
but then he throws in "what the hell does that mean" and "you want a piece of me" you can't blame Julia for bursting out like that. god bless you Jerry, rip
You wanna piece of me?!?!
@@soimarriedsarah YES! That is one of the best episode ending in the whole series. LOL. It was just great. RIP
@@locutus1126 Lol. It was the syllables he stressed -- "WHAT the HELL does THAT MEAN?"
@@jamie7607 It means whatever the hell you want it to mean!
"SO LET HIM HAVE BANANAS ON THE SIDE!!!" is my favorite Frank line of all time, one of my favorite lines on the whole show.
Absolutely ---- with his expression!! Kills me!
GEORGE LIKES THE BANANAS
my favourite is ''what the hell is this? A PROPHYLACTIC WRAPPER!?''
I love it too. 😊
I love the answering machine one 😂
"Jerry it's Frank, steinbrenner is here, George is dead, call me back"😂😂😂😂
Estelle and Jerry's chemistry is unparalleled. We'll never get anything like it again and that hurts to realize.
never say never ... Jackie Gleason and Audrey Meadows (The Honeymooners) 1955 ... Sherman Hemsley and Isabel Sanford (The Jeffersons) 1975 ... Estelle and Frank Costanza (Seinfeld)1995 ... every 20 years we get a pair like that. Was there one in 2015?
@@RubyBandUSA I always liked Frank and Marie Barone on Everybody Loves Raymond also.
@@RubyBandUSA There used to be a daily Comic in the newspapers called the Lockhorns while reading captions in the comic i would hear Frank and Estelle's voices in my head . The Lockhorns could of been the basis for all the couples you named .
Favorite Frank-isms
Serenity Now !
You want a piece of me ?
" I got a lotta problems with you people " (Festivus)
" How do you just walk into house and take a TV guide "
@@RubyBandUSA I personally think Kitty and Red from that 70s show are in that conversation.
100%!
Watching George’s parents argue was one of my favorite themes of the show it was always hilarious
I wish they’d leave in George’s exit line in the Jello/Beautiful Hands storyline, “I’ll take it in my room,” said with the perfect narcissistic attitude of an ingenue.
"You have no eye for fashion!" "I have no eye for fashion?!"
He was perfectly cast for George’s dad every single scene he was in was hilarious
What a sweet gentle genius of a man! He tears up at 7:50 when talking about the cast members love for him. Wonderful actor and person! R.I.P Jerry Stiller, you magnificent bastard!
Not the only one.
There was an incredible chemistry between Michael Richards and Jerry Stiller on the set.
Only Stiller could make Michael break
@@dlmhdlmh Yes what thing I have noticed whenever I watch the Seinfeld bloopers or respective, Michael Richards seems really humorless and not very much fun, he never seems to laugh and always seems pissed off when someone blows a line or something. The others all laugh and have fun with it but only Michael Richards seems to not really be much fun
slava Isuzu Christu
@@Mckatt2 Michael Richards found playing Kramer to be very taxing on himself. And it took a ton of effort for him to turn into Cosmo Kramer. So when the other characters would break or screw up, if Richards had broken too then it would take him forever to get back into Kramer.
Think of it like you have to get into a full body suit and remain the character for it to seem natural. While the rest of the crew just throw on a coat and do what they normally do.
It’s easy for them to screw up bc they’re not put up on such a pedestal.
Because he knows how hard Jerry was trying while the others took it for granted
"Let me understand. You got the hen, the chicken and the rooster. The rooster goes with the chicken. So, who's having sex with the hen?" RIP Jerry.
I rarely empathized with George, but in this scene I wanted to crawl under the table. Seriously.
He stole the Schnitzler's marble rye back... because he didn't get a piece of cake after dinner.
So gangster.
The rooster goes with the chicken always used to kill me because back when I was in high school (90s) we would say "Stacey will you GO with me? or Chad and Stacey are GOING together" etc. so we swapped going for dating or seeing and the idea of the rooster "dating" the chicken just cracked me up.
@@boblozaintherealworld3577
All four principal characters, and most of the supporting characters as well, were utterly despicable. Completely devoid of virtue.
dude! The best line!
The idea of George becoming a hand model was next level. Those scenes still make me cry with laughter.
Jerry Stiller as Frank Costanza is some of the funniest character acting ever. Just so quirky and insanely hilarious. What a legend.
If his tombstone doesn't read "Serenity Now", that would be a shame. You made me laugh so many times. R.I.P. Jerry.
😂😂😂
Genious.
Love it!!!
Insanity later... :)
Aw yes😂 I've loved Jerry Stillers work first on Seinfeldt then on King of Queens. He was a genius! A brilliant comedian. I've been watching King of Queens every day now for a week. Arthur Spooner😅 Rest In Peace Jerry🙏💕
Jerry Stiller was effortlessly funny in every role he played. He can make me cry laughing with the simplest line.!From everything I have read since his death, he was the complete opposite of Frank Costanza in real life. RIP Jerry Stiller, you are a legend.
Never drank or smoked cigarettes and Ben says he never ever heard his father utter a curse word
"SO LET HIM HAVE BANANAS ON THE SIDE" there's no caps big enough to convey how he read that line. RIP, and glad we can all see this stuff and share how happy it makes us!! I'm lucky I got to watch it in first run
No matter how much time passes, I still can't believe we lost Jerry. He's one of those people that are irreplaceable.
Well he was 93.
You act like he died too early. 😂
YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT!
How long was he supposed to live?
Frank: I got no leg room back here. Move your seat forward.
Estelle: That's as far as it goes.
Frank: There's a mechanism. You just pull it, and throw your body weight.
Estelle: I pulled it. It doesn't go.
Frank: If you want the leg room, say you want the leg room! Don't blame the mechanism!
These lines are comedy gold! My wife and I incorporate them in any similar situation. This episode is my favorite.
My favorite was when everybody thought George was dead and Frank goes off on Steinbrenner about ruining the Yankees by trading away Jay Buhner
Jerry Stiller was batting a 1000... He was funnier than anything anyone else did in an already funny show. Moving to Del boca Vista, prophylactic wrapper, manzier, festivus, stopping short, Korean war cook, TV guide collection, Serenity now, Rocking seinfelds van, Eating kasha in Georges bed...etc...etc. Everything he did was, and still is funny.
What the hell did you trade Jay Buhner for?
Jerry! It's Frank. George is dead. Call me back!
He is for sure one of the funniest characters in television history just thinking about all of his lines from crack me up
Yeah he really was historical on Seinfeld the Assman episode was another one of my favorites it had to be torture to keep a straight face shooting scenes with him
This show was so good not only because of the main characters, but also because of how amazing the secondary characters were. Jerry Stiller was as perfect of an actor for his role as one could get. Gold nugget indeed.
Totally agree, every single extra... cast perfectly. Susan Ross had psycho parents too, but they werent featured as prominantly. Same goes for Kramers mom Babbs Kramer... who hooked up with Newman!!!
The supporting cast was fantastic and really made the show. My least favorite character was actually Seinfeld.
!!!! How could I forget Alton Benes... Elaines dad. That guy was a TOTAL psycho.
@@MuvoTX Don't for get Elaine's boyfriend David Puddy. Probably my favorite secondary actor.
MuvoTX WHAT. THE. HELL. IS. THIS?? Some kind of joke? Well you DAMN SURE aren’t going out with my daughter looking like that! (When Jerry wore his leather jacket inside out in the rain, with the loud pink inner liner.)
Seeing Jerry Stiller come in as a replacement and do what he did with the character of Frank made the character of George Kostanza more believable.
not really. Way more unbelievable. Funnier but definitely not real.
@@shanehunter4274 Ok. So how would George's ongoing adult insecurities be explained with the character of Frank being played the way it originally was?
@@MrT67
i guess it wouldn't. I didn't really think about that. I've known quite a few older jewish father's in my life, Ive never observed one scream like georges father. He basically did the same thing on king of queens but they didn't play him as jewish. It wasn't quite as funny but he still had his moments,
Frank Constanza was my favorite character on Seinfeld. Pure comedy gold.
Rest in the Peace of God Jerry Stiller.
Kramer and frank playing pool is one of the greatest moments in tv history! RIP…what a friggen legend.
Rip Jerry stiller. U were one of my favorite characters on seinfeld
His and Mr. Bookman’s attitude were amazing.
He was great on King of Queens too!!!
@@R-BURQUENO yes he was so good in that 😄
Frank and Estelle made George into the person he was. Their fiery personas could only have been made by Stiller and Harris
@@R-BURQUENO yeah but he was alot better on Seinfeld
Stiller was hysterical. He always stole every scene.
Lmao. "Jerry it's Frank Costanza Mr. Steinbrenner's here George is dead call me back". EVERY time I hear that, I cry laughing. Rest in peace to a true legend. I grew up watching Seinfeld. My mom introduced me to it, when I was around 12 years old, in 2002. I always watched re-runs with her, and then once they started to release the seasons on DVD, I asked for them, for Christmas, and my mom got me seasons 1, and 2. Then she kept buying them, as they were released, and I eventually had them all. Seinfeld remains my all time favorite television show. It's always been something my mom, and I have been able to bond over. We both sometimes quiz each other, or take quizzes, online to see who gets a better score. I always win, and don't get a single question wrong. Frank Costanza is my favorite character on that show. Then of course Jerry played Arthur on King Of Queens, and I loved that show as well. I used to have every season of THAT show on DVD as well.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that.... I’ve learned one thin in life, if new people I meet don’t get Seinfeld quotes we have no chance at friendship.
@@Rockenstein68 lol I hear you. My girlfriend, and her 13 year old daughter have seen me watching it, and my girlfriend has told me she doesn't like Seinfeld. I said "EXCUSE ME? WE'RE OVER". Not really. But it did offend me.
True
Imagine being so good that it made the most serious actor (Michael Richards) on set break character.
RIP Jerry Stiller
The casting director did a brilliant job
I’ve been in AA for 6 years and whenever we say the Serenity Prayer, I think: “serenity now!”
May I ask what AA is?

So true !
That’s gold, Jerry, gold!
Agreed, Jerry Seinfeld was too good.
@@Seanonyoutube even with just 3 replies, I knew this comment would be taken. Else I’d have left it
Jerry Stiller is one of the funniest people this country has ever produced.
no.... George Carlin, Don Rickles, jk he is aswell
I think you mean that Larry David is one of the funniest people this country produced.
Rest in peace, Legend
Jesus saves 🙂
Probably the last comedian which was produced in the Usa and not Imported from China.
BUILD THE WALL
Very few series with so many great actors, absolutely faboulus
9:24, one of the only times I have ever seen Michael Richards break on Seinfeld. Jerry Stiller really was something special.
The second "what the hell does that mean?" is the greatest delivery of those lines ever given.
Rest his soul. Damn he was a great cast on that show. What a magical time.
Yes, yes it was...
Jesus saves 🙂
I love this show so much. The casting was perfect. The actors were even better. Seinfeld forever!
Back in the day when I started watching "Seinfeld", I was always hoping to see George parents, Jerry Stiller was hilarious
Me too!!!❤
Thats pretty awesome. Jerry Stiller was PERFECT for that role. He really brought it to life and showed so much about George. I can't imagine the effect of not having him as Frank...
Straight up, one of the funniest men to ever grace TV. Delivered comedy gold literally every time you saw him. RIP to a great man
No more Festivus for the rest of us. RIP Jerry(and Estelle too).
Awww. Festivus is eternal!
Estelle is still alive
I think Estelle is still with us.
We need a national holiday to celebrate Jerrys life. This is it
Estelle Harris is 92 and alive and well
Man Seinfeld was so good, i watched it for who knows how many times over the years. Just a week or two ago after watching some youtube videos decided to watch them all over again. It never gets old or boring.
👏 wow. No one will ever match them. They rocked man
"Hes brilliant and he doesn't know why he's brilliant". And thats why I love him
This was outstanding. Jerry Stiller is a national treasure. Thanks for sharing
I wish this was hours longer.
Right?
Yea I could watch the whole day
22 minutes flew by. I usually have no patience for anything over 4 minutes
Exactly!!! Why is that? Such an enjoyable experience stepping into the art of humor and good humored actors.
@Seth Organ haha - I forgot about that one! Hilarious!
Jerry Stiller was incredible. Funny as hell. He delivered every-line with Gusto R.I.P. Legend.
"This is Frank Costanza, you think you can keep us out of del boca vista ? We're moving in lock stock and barrel. We're going to be in the pool..we're going to be in the clubhouse..we're going to be all over that shuffleboard court and I dare you to keep me out !"
I loved that line. The insanity was just dripping from every syllable.
My favorite Frank line, ever! 😂
Even with Julia cracking up and asking for an immediate re-delivery of the line over and over Jerry nails that delivery every single time.
John Randolph was OK, but he was basically just a grumpy old man...Jerry Stiller created a completely unique character.
John would've been a good Del Boca Vista resident
We’re all really going to miss this guy, but thankfully, we have so many wonderful memories to remember him by and we can rewatch them for until the end of time 👍
I waited for Constanza episodes, they were so funny.
my fav line from Frank is "YOU WANT A DIVORCE? YOU GOT ONE!" it just works so well in the whole scene.
The Costanza parents were always a highlight for me! Always delighted when they were featured!!!
Loved Seinfeld all the characters were great but I tell you the Costanza's always brought it 110%
How can anyone blame Julia for breaking down, this is the bazzilionth time I've watched this scene and I still crack up at him just saying the word "what"
Yeah, there's no way I would've been able to work opposite of him, in a comedy. I wouldn't of been able to work opposite of him, in even a drama. He was too damn funny. His facial expressions get me every time.
@@cmcproductions26 Orly? WHAT is that supposed to mean? *raises palms*
Its a compliment in my eyes I would laugh too
Jesus saves 🙂
She breaks character A LOT. Jerry Stiller usually was serious when someone broke character, it's called professionalism. He was not angry, he was just trying to shoot the scene.
It must be very annoying to get into character every time someone breaks.
Because of him, I wish my family a “Happy Festivus” every year. Thank you, Jerry!! Love you.
The laughing will never stop...thank you, Jerry Stiller ✨✨✨
Thanks, Jerry! You are comedy gold! Thanks for the great comedic memories!
Jerry Stiller was the best-RIP
What a great comic he was and i do believe he elevated Seinfeld another rung up the comedy ladder. This felt like a bonus Seinfeld episode, thanks for making it.
Loved Jerry Stiller as George's Dad in Seinfeld, RIP mr Stiller
Many TV shows displayed great chemistry with the actors. Seinfeld was a major one even watching previous shows now 2022. Rest in Paradise Jerry Stiller. 🙏✌️👌💜
I love Jerry Stiller and Frank Costanza.. thank you for millions of laughs RIP
Thank you for the memories Jerry Stiller! You and Estelle the best couple in any series ever. The show still have me rolling on the floor.
I couldn’t imagine anyone playing his dad but this guy. He nailed it. Cramer and this guy, the acting was legendary

@@cosmokramer5055 Rock, Flag, and Eagle. Right Charlie?
Your right on Mr Bitches, Arthur was perhaps my all time favorite character... and that’s only because he had a larger role on King of queens than on Seinfeld. He was unreal on Seinfeld too!
@@dustinschweser1204 Arthur Spooner always had little bits & pieces that were devastatingly funny, but easily missed; you had to pay attention. Just recently, for the first time, I saw that scene where Doug & Carrie walk down into his basement and say, "Dad, we need to talk to you". He's watching something on his TV. He says, "Okay, just a second". Gets up; just before he shuts it off he says, dryly, "Nobody squeals like Ned Beatty". I came close to having a coronary.

RIP Mr. Jerry Stiller.
You'll have us cracking up for years and years to come!
Thank You for the laughs!
It was these secondary characters that made this show truly special, each one was extraordinary and Jerry Stiller as George's dad was just fucking perfect. RIP Jerry Stiller

Being a good comedian is a God's gift, to be able to generate happiness in other's seamlessly and naturlly. Jerry Stiller is and will always be one of those persons.
I LOVE THIS MAN! the comedy will NEVER be the same! I really felt his passing, never met him but he made a way to people's hearts! RIP Jerry Stiller, we love you dearly!
Thanks for taking the time to make this video.
"SERENITY NOW !!!!" "SERENITY NOW !!!"
@MachomusPrime YOU CAN LOOK FOR SNEAKERS THE NEXT DAY!!
Serenity forever!
@dm9542 Love it when Lloyd Braun, who was hospitalized, says: "Serenity now, insanity later."
serenity now... insanity later.
@@RossL1946 I LIKED when Lloyd Braun would ring the bell for a phone sale. Turns out he never sold anything, he just INsANE! lol
The late great Jerry Stiller was a jewel. He was awesome as Frank Costanza then if it's even possible he got even better as Arthur Spooner. R. I. P. Jerry
Great writers , producers, Director & cast & crew! When a cast of actors & actresses come together and make history!
I would've watched a spinoff show of just Frank, George, and Estelle co-habitating together.
Of all the the great side characters this show produced, Frank was my absolute favorite. RIP Mr. Stiller, you brought laughter and joy to many, many people!
SeReNiTy NoWwWwWw!!!!!
R.I.P. Jerry Stiller.
He was hilarious as Frank Costanza, who was one of the best characters of Seinfeld.
THANK YOU for this incredible tribute to “the other” Jerry... brilliant, loved Jerry Stiller.
oh my gosh Julia seems like the loveliest person. And Jerry was such a great person and actor, always hilarious
You all have filled my heart with joy. Thank you for your kind words!
He lived a long life I'm sure he enjoyed most. Rest in peace Jerry
Jerry Stiller was a legend. He stood out on two of the best Comedy’s ever - Seinfeld and King of Queens. One of the funniest people ever in Hollywood.
Chase Orton I never saw king of queens, is Jerry just as good on that show?
chloenkitty Absolutely. He made that show! His character was pretty similar to his “Seinfeld” character, but who cares- he was that excellent at it
chloenkitty I would say he’s better on there because he’s given more screen time, storylines. He makes the show imo. The replay value is similar to Seinfeld.
@@chloenkitty Really, you've never seen King of Queens?? It's been on TVLand every night for years. I must have seen every episode dozens of times! Hilarious show, you should check it out!
Doug Ritzema The great thing is even after seeing them dozens of times its still funny. Great rewatch value
From frank costanza to arthur spooner. This man brought me to tears of laughter. His characters remind me so much of my father. A true thespian. He wont be forgotten
Gold all of Seinfeld is gold then and now
Doesn’t get any funnier
There will never be another show like Seinfeld.
Absolutely! Greatest sitcom of all time. My family quotes it almost daily.
He was just brilliant. I LOVE that character! So, so funny. And, from this, he seems like the sweetest guy too.
