In Louis-Dreyfus’ memory, Jerry Seinfeld actually brought the “You want a piece of me” clip with him onto a late-night show shortly after the episode aired, “to talk about what a professional organization he was running.” His attempt to get out the words “Del Boca Vista” is another legendary example. As Alexander put it, a lot of Frank Costanza’s “internal rage” actually came from a lack of confidence on Stiller’s part to get the language right. She also revealed that when Stiller would do his signature “look to the sky” gesture, it was because he was trying to remember his lines. Elaine and Frank come face-to-face at the police station where Jason Alexander’s George Costanza has been arrested after trying to impress a woman with his “bad boy” scheme of bootlegging movies. It’s near the end of the season eight episode “The Little Kicks,” in which Louis-Dreyfus’ Elaine is revealed to be the world’s worst dancer.

But for true Seinfeld fans, his all-time funniest scene is on the blooper reel. The man was Jerry Stiller, who died over the weekend at the age of 92, and despite a comedy career that started on The Ed Sullivan Show was perhaps most famous for playing Frank Costanza on Seinfeld.įrom “a Festivus for the rest of us” to “Serenity now!,” Stiller had plenty of hilarious moments on screen over the show’s nine seasons.

But there is one man who perhaps made her laugh harder than anyone else. With a record six Emmy awards for playing the same role-and record-tying eight acting Emmys overall-Julia Louis-Dreyfus has been the funniest woman on TV for more than 30 years.
