Cross-overs?

Latest comment: 4 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The article makes no mention of the show being part of NBC's "Must-See TV" line-up, or of the fairly significant crossovers with other, unrelated series, such as the revelation that Paul Reiser's character in Mad About You previously rented the apartment that Kramer later moves into after him, right across the hall from Jerry Seinfeld's apartment. rowley (talk) 00:51, 20 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

"The in-show character is a mild germophobe" Isn't that spelled germanophobe?? 46.188.167.218 (talk) 13:22, 29 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

No? If you're afraid of germs then you're a germophobe. ― Blaze Wolf^Talk_{Blaze Wolf#6545} 13:23, 29 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Audience? No audience?

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I'm confused—did Seinfeld have a live audience or not? The Production section says nothing about one—but the reactions sound spontaneous (for example, Kramer sometimes getting applause when he enters or leaves), and the article says that laugh tracks were used only over scene transitions. Shouldn't this be clearer? 2604:3D08:4486:600:D175:54EE:C5D1:9DAB (talk) 09:20, 19 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
