He associates with a strange lawyer who wears a cape."

R.I.P Jerry Stiller...the funniest person on Seinfeld.
@RustAndDust76 I can drop you like a bag of dirt.
one of the funniest. vale.
Frank was the greatest!😭
WavvyPrince and he invented the greatest move ever, STOP SHORT
What the HELL does that mean?
R.I.P Jerry Stiller
“Serenity now, Insanity Later”
Rip, amazing profile picture btw
If I know my dad, then there's not much peace in the afterlife tonight with all the "SERENITY NOW" quotes.
Hoochie mama!!!
You sayin’, you want a piece of me?!
A festivus for the rest of us... 😂👍
The unsung hero of Seinfeld.
And king of queens.
uncle leo
allomo
@@richardmorris7063 definitely the king of queens too
He was definitely sung.
RIP Jerry Stiller, very sad to hear about his passing...
Me too.
When did he pass?
@@alexclarke7675 a day or so ago. Natural causes.
Honestly, the writers of this show were just brilliant.
Is not was one writer,the whole team of writers.
Not just the writers.....the actors too!
@ekimshield CZcams commentors are not a bright bunch
True. But you need brilliant actors to make the lines work. And boy did it work. Seinfeld sitcom is a genre by itself.
Felt like a live simpsons
I love how Frank looks the exact same as he did 40 years ago :D
Levain Sylvaux he's been an old man his whole life lmao
+thegr8rambino so is he considered the white version of Morgan Freeman?
hahaha yea
And 20 years later
Daniel Murcia ,,
Watching this again after hearing Jerry Stiller Died. May he rest in peace after a life well lived
I'm hear again too.
"As I rained blows upon him, I realized there had to be another way!"
Epic actor and comedian. RIP Jerry you will be missed.
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Last I checked Jerry Seinfeld is still alive...oh you said epic actor and comedian.
@@xynged Jerry Stiller (Frank Costanza), an absolute legend, passed away on May 11th 2020.
"I find tinsel distracting."
George's mother is also a great sidekick to his father. I love the way she reacts to Frank's outbursts.
Shouldn't have gotten rid of his Cabana wear!
“It’s dry!”
‘I always made it that way.’
“WELL IT SUCKS!”
She was the original. He was the 3rd choice as an actor. Crazy right?
Mrs Potato Head.
the manzeer episode
The only thing funnier than George are his parents.
Happy Festivus, everyone.
Cleetus it’s time for the feat of strength
I’m Your Friendish And an airing of grievances.
To the rest of us!!!
HOOTCHIE MOMMA!!!
Rip
Who is here after the news of his death. RIP Jerry Stiller.
I am sir. Paying tribute to a legend.
It really makes ya think.
Aria Laidler a
"George is dead....call me back" One of my favorite lines of all-time. Short and sweet. Slight panic in his voice but not too much....knowing his son is dead. Just perfect. RIP Jerry
Jerry Stiller is a comedic genius.
+Tony D'Amico His kid is a HACK!
so. is. his. son. Ben
so. is. his. son. Ben stiller
Yup!
it's funny that Frank Costanza being so temperamental was a natural reaction of Jerry when portraying the character and Jerry and Larry decided to keep it that way, so in a way it was an accident, the same with his irregular speaking voice
There’s going to be a black ribbon tied to this year’s Festivus pole.
Just don't ask Kramer to wear one.
Too distracting
@@thetalkingmime2026 WHO? WHO WON'T WEAR THE REEBON?
@@thetalkingmime2026 LMFAO
It's just black electrical tape.
RIP Jerry Stiller. The work you did in Seinfeld and King of Queens was remarkable and those shows wouldn't be half as funny if you weren't in them. I will miss you.
He was also in tales from the darkside as well being the radio host
He made King of Queens in my opinion, without it people would have probably seen it as another below average sitcom but Stiller living with them pushed it up a notch
Mike Hicks 100%
"King of Queens" is really a very stale and tame sitcom. Jerry Stiller is great, but annoyingly unchallenged in it. They didn't make good enough use of him.
Arthur Spooner
"What the hell did you trade Jay Buhner for?"
"He had 30 home runs and over 100 RBIs last year. He's got a rocket for an arm. You don't know what the hell you're doing."
Ken Phelps bat
Ken Phelps Ken Phelps!
🤣 what every spankee fan was thinking back when Buhner was a beast in Seattle.
RIP MORI BALSTEEN, BALLS MODELS.
My people wanted Ken Phelps bad
Lol! The man has no filter.
"As I rained blows upon him..." XD
It's actually pretty impressive that he had that state of mind during a rainage of blows.
Reigned blows.
i love how he doesn't over act, but his physical comedy still paints a picture. the double fists, man.
That must have been some kinda doll.
Hahaha !!
So funny. My favorite character !
"Jerry it's Frank Costanza, Mr. Steinbrenner's here, George is dead, call me back!"--LOL!
May his soul rest in peace.👼👼 SERENITY NOW INSANITY LATER!
“I sent 16 of my own men to the latrines that night” 😂😂😂😂
RIP Jerry, we've been revisiting our favorite Frank Costanza episodes since your passing!
I wish the Costanzas' had their own TV show.
TheLastOfTheFinest80 ....it would be hilarious, but it’d basically be 30 minutes of yelling. “They’re exhausting, its like being in an asylum “ ...Mrs Seinfeld
TheLastOfTheFinest80 : just be lots of screaming ... and hilarious
George has his own show, it's called Curb Your Enthusiasm 😂
As a former cook in the Greek army, it was common practice to prepare meat that you wouldn't dare serve to child to. But, we did what we could and luckily nobody in my unit had to go through what Frank and his men did. I'm sure I still have some of that meat still sitting undigested in my stomach after all these years.
+gutz1981 As a former cook who worked at his Greek father's restaurant. I know all to well about serving bad meat that you wouldnt serve to a dog. His secret was extra garlic, tomatoes & cinnamon, to help disguise the bad smell. LOL
+gutz1981 back in nam we were eating raw food
+flisko Back in WW II my grand father would eat meat straight off the cows ass while it was still alive a grazing. LOL
+gutz1981 yea one of the horror stories from ww2
I don't wanna sound like a smartass but of course you wouldn't serve rotten meat to a child.
What a sad day. One of the funniest characters on any show ever. RIP Jerry.
funny thing is, jerry stiller makes us believe he IS frank costanza, facially, bodily,arm movements, he's just SO REAL, it plays right into the part, he is the most believable actor on the show
Veronica Cook he plays basically the same part on "The King of Queens" as Arthur.
Him and Wayne Knight...he IS Newman
@@BrianBattles Wayne Knight, somehow, is _perfectly_ Stan (Jurassic Park), Newman, and Officer Don (3rd Rock from the Sun) all at once. A mark of a damn good actor, to exist in such a quantum state of metafiction.
RIP Jerry Stiller. Passed away today aged 92, loved him as Arthur Spooner too.
A few years ago I got to meet jerry stiller. It was awesome he went through the entire serenity now scene with me from start to finish.
I'm sorry to inform you, you are now added to my "hate" list. Last guy I stuck on it saw the 4 Seasons and the 4 Tops at the same concert. I may have to put your name at the top of the list. Trust me, it's a compliment lol I'm sure it's a memory you'll cherish always but you're still going on the list. :o)
Watching this the day he died. Rest In Peace Jerry Stiller.
"Frank I'm cold!"
"Order a hot dish."
So funny lol
You wanna piece of me??
You got ittttttt.......... Luv the ending!!
+Road House The blooper out-takes of that scene is the funniest.
+pete p Jerry Stiller was the only guy in that series who could make Michael Richards break character. Getting through a scene with that guy had to have been a difficult challenge.
I trust Elaine to win that fight
**plays Roundabout**
“Had to sit him on a cork the 18 hour flight home” Jesus Christ that was funny lol
R.I.P "Jerry Stiller"he was to me a true comedy genius 🤣
6:54 - I love how George's parents are arguing and screaming in the middle of a crowded restaurant and nobody else is even noticing. Only in NY.
The childhood scene said it all. George's parents were brilliant casting, writing, and acting. It shows why George is the way he is. Self conscious, unmotivated, always second guessing himself, and short tempered.
seinfeld kept me going through my teenage years.....it's the only thing that made me feel better
Me too.
I still watch this show for comic relief.
me too, its the only show that I could totally relate to the dysfunctional and self centered characters.
...it got me through my 30’s, LOL.
@Some 1poisoned the water hole That 70's Show, too.
Such a great actor. When you watch the blooper when he said “you want a piece of me?” and Julia couldn’t stop laughing said it all.
serenity now, Frank Costanza...you will be dearly missed :(
"That's it. You're grounded!" XDXD
Perfect. Perfect timing.
"You can't ground me. I'm a grown man."
"You wanna live here, you respect the rules of our house. YOU'RE GROUNDED!!!"
Amazing actor , his son Ben Stiller is hilarious too , two icons
is he really Ben Stiller's father?
patrick watkins Yes
Don’t forget the mother! Anne Meara!
Jerry stole every scene on every show he played. May he Rest in Serenity.
Frank is totally me in 30 years from now 😂😂
alfonzo mendoza same lmfaooo
at least you realize that now as opposed to 30years from now.
Frank is me now.
As I rained blows upon him. LOL!
This show is still hilarious after all these years lol
I think i hurt myself laughing at him.
We lost a true legend of television today. Seinfeld wouldn’t be the same without you #IGOTALOTPROBLEMSWITHYOUPEOPLE
This morning, May 4, 20, it was learned that comedian and veteran actor Jerry Stiller passed away at the age of 92. "I am saddened to announce that my father, Jerry Stiller, has died under natural circumstances," wrote his son, actor Ben Stiller. "He was a great father and a great grandfather and the most devoted husband for 62 years. He will be dearly missed by us, love you dad."
"I'm sitting at home reading a periodical and this is the call I get?" HAHAHA. I've been waiting over 15 years for someone to call me to get them out of jail so I can say this line and still no luck.
I've had the dubious honor of saying this line to a friend.
"My (insert name) isnt smart enough to hatch a scheme like this" 😂 have to say that too
LMFAO that scene with George, Frank, and Estelle at the diner was freaking HILARIOUS!!!
That's perverse!
Haha "I lost my train of thought" xD! I just love him 😍😍
Sad to hear that my man passed away today. RIP Jerry Stiller, no one tells Frank Costanza what to do!
God: Hello?
Frank: This is Frank Costanza
God: What do you want?
Frank: You think you can keep me out of heaven, were moving in lock, stock and barrel. We're gonna be in the pool, gonna be in the clubhouse, gonna be all over that shuffleboard court and I dare you to keep me out!!
I already miss this man. One of the best Side Characters in Seinfeld ever.
THE best
R.I.P. Mr. Jerry Stiller.
"You ask me to get a pair of underwear, I'm back in two seconds." 😂😂😂
Who's here in 2020 remembering Jerry Stiller? Imagine, this post was made almost exactly 7 years to the day before he passed. Rest in Peace.
Rest in peace Jerry Stiller
R.I.P To this legend, brought so many laughs to so many people
I will celebrate festivus this year , RIP Jerry Stiller
He was honestly one of the funniest characters in this show. R.I.P Jerry Stiller.
SERENITY NOW!
Insanity later.
dustasdu HOOTCHIE MAMA!!!
Are you supposed to yell?
Secret Oktober78
The man on the tape wasn’t specific
Wonder how many people were yelling that when the movie for Firefly was announced...
An absolute legend, may he rest in peace. Serenity now.
Love that man!!!
R.I.P. Jerry, you’ve been a part of my life ever since I was a young kid. I used to watch Seinfeld and king of queens everyday when I got home from school, waiting for his part of the episodes to come on. One of the funniest men I have ever seen on TV, and there just simply can’t be another person who can match his brilliant comedic timing. The way he plays his characters is to genuine and realistic, yet sidesplittingly funny...What a legend....
I guess it took hours & hours to shoot that final scene in the police station, Elaine &frank couldn't stop laughing, it's in the bloopers
Same goes for him trying to say "Del Boca Vista".
@@NewSuperAvenger you mean Del Besto Bico?
He's all over that shuffleboard court in heaven now.
Jerry Stiller may be gone, but he'll never die.
First instinct was to watch this video to celebrate Jerry Stiller. RIP Hope you and Anna can create more gold in heaven
WHY DOESNT THIS VIDEO HAVE 10,000,000,000,000,000,000 VIEWS?! one of the funniest videos i have ever seen in my life
The Costanza family are the only tv parents I like. I like to see them drive raymonds parents insane.
Love em, but Married with Children broke the mold for this!
Chad King Excuse me. Heard of Frank and Marie from Everybody loves Raymond? Do you even comedy bro?
Yes al Bundy is the chosen 1 I still love all old shows
Was definitely one of the top 3 Seinfeld characters. RIP!
While eating a waffle this morning thinking about frank costanza and some of the moments of hilarity from seinfeld i spit my waffle out in a fit of laughter. Now those who know me realize im kind of an introverted serious thinking guy who is not really prone to fits of laughter. So hats off to jerry stiller in getting a reaction like that from me. SERENITY NOW!!
I'm BACK BAYBAY!!!
3:41 "You got the Hen , the Chicken and the Rooster."
That whole dialogue is perfect Frank but speaks volumes about the show about nothing!
No comedy up to 2015 is even close to "Seinfeld" (:
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is a cruder, more ridiculous version of Seinfeld in being about nothing really.
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is like Seinfeld on crack
.....something's missing!
Ohh there's definitely something missing. 😂
Frasier is better
RedThebigOneInfantry It's always sunny, Everybody loves Raymond, King of Queens, The Thick of it, Father Ted
We have celebrated Festivus for many years now in my family. The kids actually come home from across the country. Thank you Mr. Stiller - we will have feats of strength this coming Festivus.
RIP Mr Stiller and thanks for all the laughs
i couldnt work as a actor around this man..i couldnt hold a straight face he will have me laughing at all times
A Comedic Genius. Rest In Peace “Frank Costanza”, “Arthur Spooner”, and etc. He made the show great (King of Queens).
RIP Jerry Stiller, I just heard about his death from an online forum. Best wishes to his family.
113 people failed the Feats of Strength.
Didn't matter the writing, his delivery just killed me everytime...r.i.p...
8:37 the blooper cuts of this scene were hilarious. When Stiller said "What the hell is that supposed to mean" Elaine couldn't stop laughing
Frank is crazy enough to argue with GOD.
He still makes me laugh uncontrollably.
Thanks for the laughs. Rest well.
R.I.P Jerry Stiller! Just found out you died today :( You left us many hilarious moments. You were amazing as Frank Costanza!
It's dry
That's the way I always make it!
*IT SUCKS!*
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
"Gimme that spatula"
I'm back baby!!!!!
"SERENITY NOW"!!!
HOOCHIE MAMAAA!!!!!
Insanity later!
Are you supposed to SCREAM it?
The man on the tape wasn't specific.
“Your meatloaf is mushy, your salmon croquettes are oily, and your egg plant parmesan IS A DISGRACE TO THIS HOUSE!!”
😂
WE'RE GONNA BE IN THE POOL
WE'RE GONNA BE IN THE CLUB HOUSE
WE'RE GONNA BE *ALL OVER* THAT SHUFFLEBOARD COURT
AND I DARE YOU TO KEEP ME OUT!!!!!!
R.I.P Jerry Stiller "I got a lot of problems with you people!"
R.I.P You touch so many hearts and made many people laugh! You will be missed :(
RIP Jerry Stiller. We will miss you. We do not know back then that all of our parents were exactly like you when we got to Geroge's age.
Beyond a legend - a fixture of my teens right here, Frank Costanza brought more laughs than just about anyone in a very dark time in my life. RIP Jerry
Every time I see Bernie Sanders, I think of Frank Costanza
Ever see that SNL sketch where Larry David's playing Bernie, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus reprises the Elaine character to heckle him from the press corp?
This guy was a big part of why Seinfeld was so successful. R.I.P Jerry Stiller, a legend.
The day this man won't be with us anymore is going to be very sad, what a legendary actor, he was amazing on seinfeld!
I love that in the flashback of Frank in the Korean War, they didnt bother with young makeup or a different actor, It’s just him in an army uniform.
Rest in peace. You'll never know about the countless times you made me laugh so hard i had tears in my eyes or choked on whatever drink i just had. The countless times you made me feel better on a crappy day. THANK YOU for every single moment.
God: Hello?
Jerry: THIS IS JERRY STILLER.
God: What do ya want?!?!
Jerry: You think you can keep me out of heaven?!?!?! I'm moving in lock stock and barrel! I'm gonna be in the pool, I'm gonna be in the clubhouse! I'm gonna be all over that shuffleboard court, AND I DARE YOU TO KEEP ME OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ben Watson LOL at God saying what do ya want? Don’t know why but I just found that part funny.
I read that entirely in his voice lol
I could see that! Meanwhile St. Peter is ducking for cover.
So...would this equate to God talking to Jesus or Mohammed or someone asking to move in with them, hoping to "have a buffer zone"...?
Frank & Estelle Costanza. The funniest parents ever. Thank you for all the times you made us laugh.
Frank Costanza was hysterical on Seinfeld. RIP JERRY STILLER! "SERENITY NOW!"
Rest in Peace, Frank!
Jerry Stiller will forever be missed. He was a comedy legend!
That scene with Frank pouring the scotch as he recalls Korea was a jarringly welcome moment of cinematic drama in the series.
He was a standout star in King of Queens and Seinfeld.
