    About Seinfeld:
    Seinfeld stars Jerry Seinfeld as a stand-up comedian whose life in New York City is made even more chaotic by his quirky group of friends who join him in wrestling with life's most perplexing, yet often trivial questions. Often described as "a show about nothing," Seinfeld mines the humor in life's mundane situations like waiting in line, searching for a lost item, or the trials and tribulations of dating. Co-starring are Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Jerry's ex-girlfriend and current platonic pal, Elaine Benes; Jason Alexander as George Costanza, Jerry's neurotic hard-luck best friend; and Michael Richards as Jerry's eccentric neighbor, Kramer.

    Fun Fact: In the scene where Jerry is denied the purchase of an umbrella on the street by former colleagues, a man walks by wearing an 'urban sombrero'. The 'urban sombrero' was featured in the Season 8 premiere episode, "The Foundation." It was an item placed on the cover of the Peterman Catalog by Elaine after she is left in charge following the disappearance of Peterman to Burma due to an apparent nervous breakdown.

      I've seen a few behind the scenes things about the show, and this particular thing actually came around by accident. I'm not sure which episode it was, but Michael Richards (Kramer) once came through like that to avoid missing his cue. I guess it was liked well enough that it became a regular running gag.
