just wasn’t ready for the
responsibilities of a pretend marriage
number seven Michael Chiklis as Steve
Pocatello
who is it mister Pocatello
oh you mean you don’t recognize my voice
given his hard-hitting performance as
detective Vic Mackey on the shield it’s
hard to imagine Michael Chiklis in a
comedic role war with hair for that
matter you said if I was ever in the
city I’m in this city
Chiklis gave an outrageous performance
on Seinfeld however as Steve Pocatello
after hosting Jerry at a party Steve
takes Seinfeld up on his offer to stop
by his apartment when in New York making
himself right at home when he gets there
by ordering up a prostitute maybe we
should call one of those escort services
yeah I saw them advertised before in the
cable station 5-5-5 law Jerry not only
has to pay for the pretty woman services
but also pays and even heftier price
when the cops show up
does your apartment yeah but on arrest
for solicitation of prostitution wait a
second I suddenly Kramer starts to seem
like an ideal houseguest by comparison
number six Sarah Silverman as Emily that
was all right ah well uh good night
following up her short stint on Saturday
Night Live Sarah Silverman landed a
guest role as Kramer’s girlfriend Emily
while the sex is pretty all right Emily
gets just a little too clingy for
Kramer’s taste when spending the night
fed up with her Jimmy legs
Kramer manages to convince Emily that
they’d be better off sleeping alone yeah
because she’s stolen off my whole sleep
she’s got the Jimmy legs
Jimmy leg Jimmy leg when Kramer becomes
paranoid that somebody’s breaking into
his apartment though he starts to desire
somebody to cuddle with at night there
was a man he was trying to get into my
apartment last night he was tickling the
doorknob for 25 minutes
alas emily has also flip-flopped
fortunately they find the solution in a
set of separate beds oh come on man be
halfway you’re not easy tremor hi number
5 Jeremy Piven as Michael Barth or
George
everything all right I just came from
the podiatrist yeah I got some more my
foot I got a little gangrene too
probably if you go back and watch this
classic Seinfeld episode you might not
even recognize Jeremy Piven as Michael
Barth Piven plays an actor who auditions
to play George in the Seinfeld show
within a show a man gave me a massage
sporting a balding head glasses and a
dumpy persona he seems like a dead
ringer for George even if the real
George can’t see the resemblance
you snake us yeah but II need the
sneakers for
I like sneakers I didn’t make a decision
which ones to where I go crazy if I
decide which sneakers to wear yeah
you’re crazy anyway evidence of pivens
commitment to character is seen already
in this early role and was fleshed out
completely in the career-defining
character of Ari Gold in Entourage
you’ll hug it out
no not really hug it out bitch of course
Ari has a much Fowler mouth on him and
in case your ears are fucked get the
number for Denise Richards as Molly
hello hi I’m Holly ah
I’m Jerry bad George now we’re
discussing our script with your father
he just read it she may have only
appeared on screen for a couple of
minutes but this brief appearance on
Seinfeld maybe one of Denise Richards
most memorable roles as the daughter of
an NBC executive overseeing Jerry’s
pilot she’s in the wrong place at the
wrong time for George who can’t help but
sneak an extended peek when the 15 year
old displays her cleavage for the record
Richards was 22 at the time the hapless
George is caught in the act as Bob
Balaban delivers one of the show’s most
hilarious lines get a good look Costanza
George got a good look and he probably
got an even better look if he ever saw
wild things looking at cleavage is like
looking at the Sun you don’t stare at it
it’s too risky
you get a sense of it then you look away
number three Jon Favreau has Eric the
clown very good all right go fold your
little balloon animals Eric Eric got a
name is that for a clown before
directing box-office hits like elf and
Iron Man Jon Favreau was primarily known
for being a character actor when a
Favreau’s earliest acting gigs was as
Eric a clown hidden under a rainbow wig
and makeup bozo no bingo zo re teddy
despite his profession Eric isn’t
especially fun-loving or friendly he
doesn’t even know who bozo is much to
the shock of George hey man what are you

unforgettable appearance on Seinfeld as
Sidra oh hi I’m Elaine cherry is
immediately drawn to Sid Rowse natural
beauty until he finds out that her
breasts may not be all that natural well
I think you’ll find out soon enough
just when Jerry’s about to uncover the
truth firsthand that timing gets in the
way as usual I can’t believe you sent a
woman into the sauna to do that that was
an accident I think you’re both mentally
ill Oh before walking out on Jerry
however syndra lets him know what he’s
missing that has got to be among the
show’s most quotable lines which was
partially ad-libbed by hatcher herself
and by the way they’re real and they’re
spectacular
and it comes back when you least expect
it oh and by the way they’re real and
they’re spectacular before we get to our
top pick here are some honorable
mentions
