No Jerry Stiller?

Was it ever discussed why Jerry Stiller never made an appearance before he passed away? Likely due to scheduling and his health, but that was one I was really looking forward to.

He had a lot of problems with those people

But we never got to hear about it

Ben Stiller’s birthday party would’ve been the perfect time for a Jerry Stiller cameo…but, he was likely busy filming The King of Queens at the time

Another great show.

He did have Ben

So in essence, we got Jerry Stiller’s ejaculate.

I heard he had a lot of memory issues towards the end unfortunately. He was great on King of Queens though and Heartbreak Kid

Some of his scenes on King of Queens made me do literal spit takes.

A local joint, dominos

His phone number, if you need it, is 555-LOGS

He has a lot of memory issues on Seinfeld!

It was called 'The Net', with that girl from the bus.

I never imagined I'd ever anyone utter the phrase "crushing pussy", let alone Jerry Stiller saying it to his son.

Even at an early age he had no interest in retroscripting.

They don't want him, HE DOESN'T WANT THEM

Was the actress that played Jerry’s mom in the reunion? I might have a false memory of her being there.

No but Estelle was there.

Estelle, Newman and Bania showed up, but very briefly

u/CriticalThinkerHmmz avatar

Oh right. Yeah that’s what I meant. I got the Cortanza parents and Seinfelds confused for some reason. Jerry’s parents were not nearly as memorable.

They definitely had their moments but you’re right the Costanzas were much more iconic.

They couldn't leave Del Boca Vista

I was a bit surprised he wasn't in any of the Seinfeld reunion episodes, but he was in his 80s at that point.

Nobody wanted a piece of him

They always wanted to film during festivus

u/speghettiday09 avatar

He had problems. Internal

Because he stopped short.

Thought you meant Jerry Springer at first.

It didn't seem they had too many of the Seinfeld cast beyond the main 4 show up besides the reunion season, probably just a writing thing. Also as it's improv heavy Jerry Stiller might not have been really into that.

I’m guessing scheduling conflict. Wasn’t he still doing that Kevin James sitcom?

u/snicmtl avatar

Yes that would of been great!

u/captainsuckass avatar

Would have.

Well, he was 80 in 2007 when he finished his 195 episodes of King of Queens and then he did voice work and mostly single episode appearances after that.

Maybe he just wanted to rest.

Imagine not getting a reference to a pretty prominent joke on the show.
