    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.

      Not to be annoying but I’ve always wondered about the life of a doorman. Is it good money? And is it fun? Are there prerequisites, like working in customer service for a while? To me it seems almost mean to make someone stand there opening doors for people, but I suppose that courtesy is part of what elevates some buildings to higher class.

    Fun fact about the doorman;
    This was actually a good friend of Jerry in real life. And was always sure that this sitcom was going to be a hit, even when the ratings were against the show (first 3 / 4 seasons) , its this friend of him that would always talk to him that 'it will be ok, hang in there, youre gonna be great'
    Before the show started Jerry also wanted him to play George Costanza, but when Jason alexander did so well in the casting, they gave it to him.

      There seemed to be a code with comedians who got their own sitcoms in the late 80's-90's, where they brought their cronies from the stand-up circuit onto the show for cameo appearances. Seinfeld threw bones to Larry Miller, Fred Stoller, Rob Schneider, Brad Garrett, Dom Irrera, Carol Leifer, Jean Karam, George Wallace, Rick Overton, et al.
