Whatever Happened to Seinfeld's Bit Actors?

Posted by Alex in Movies & SciFi on November 3, 2007 at 3:02 am


Ever wonder what happened to the cast of Seinfeld? No, not Jerry (he’s got a new Bee movie) or Ellen Elaine, George, and Kreamer Kramer – we mean the bit players. Like Babu, Man Hand, Low Talker, and Soup Nazi.

Mario Marsicano (or Jellio) of the always interesting YesButNoButYes blog tracked ‘em all down:

O’Henry? That’s one of our top-selling candy bars. It’s got chocolate, peanuts, nougat, it’s delicious, scrumptious, outstanding!

We’ll start with one of my favorites. Jackie Chiles had a way with words, using his talents to defend Kramer when he was scalded by coffee, disfigured from smoking and distracted by a bra. The cases didn’t go so well, but you may recall he ended up ok, being able to judge for himself that they were, indeed "real, and spectacular". Since then, Jim Morris has been all over the television dial, in everything from CSI to Smallville, with alot of voiceover work, as well. Here’s the most interesting thing I found…the University of Utah Law School has a Jackie Chiles Law Society, which seeks to "analyze America’s view of the Law based on how popular culture portrays it". That’s pretty spectacular, as well.

LinkThanks Mario!

    Don't worry about your error. Jellio referred to Phil Morris as Jim Morris.

    Hahaha! Kreamer! Ah, silly me. I actually used to watch Seinfeld way back when, so I do know the characters....

    But if you read Neatorama regularly you'll know by now that I suffer from typsophilia, a typso-causing typing disease caused by fat fingers and frequent brain farts....

    Jim Morris is also the son of Greg Morris of Mission Impossible TV fame.

    I saw Soup Nazi actor at Video Games Live in L.A. a couple weeks ago. Funny how he said "No Frogger for you!" when the Frogger contest was broken.
