Damnit, this one hurts. One of my all time fav characters in a show; Seinfeld. Was great in everything else he did as well. At least he gets to reunite with his wife now. RIP.

Damn, Frank Costanza was one of the greatest tv characters of all time.  He’s gonna give St. Peter the business at the pearly gates.

Two months ago, I saw a provocative movie on cable TV. It was called The Net, with that girl from the bus. I did a little reading, and I realize, it wasn't that far-fetched.

My professional name is Mr. Costanza, and I will refer to you as 'Costanza'.

Legend.  And yes, while Frank Costanza was an all-time great character his work on King of Queens is way up there as well.

This is Frank Costanza.

You think you could keep us out of Florida? We're moving in lock, stock

and barrel. We're gonna be in the pool. We're gonna be in the clubhouse.

We're gonna be all over that shuffleboard court! And I dare you to keep me out!

spacer.pngInterestingly he was initially directed to be the meek counterpoint to Estelle's loud and brash personality.  But it was his own idea to play it loud and in your face.  And boom,

"Reputation as kind of the village idiot."-Maestro

"Yeah?  Well, I still say we're related."-Frank

His timing and facial expression in that scene was an acting clinic

RIP, Jerry.  An absolute gem.  And apparently one helluva nice guy.

Wow, he kinda looked like Ethan Hawke in that photo.  The of them always seemed genuinely happy when they were on camera together.  

To that great catered affair in the sky!  RIP.

Fun fact: Both Morty Seinfeld and Frank Costanza were originally portrayed by different actors.  Both roles were recast with Stiller reshooting the original Frank scenes for syndication.

I remember the original Morty, but not the original Frank.

Frank (Puddy a close 2nd) was my favorite character on Seinfeld...so many classic scenes 

 

"Hoochie mama" and "airing of grievances " are in my regular rotation. I will make it my mission to add some more to the repertoire. I line "you have no eye for fashion!" and a couple others

to be fair to Jerry stiller, if Seinfeld had delivered some of his lines with some actual gusto and fervor, he'd have seemed a lot older than Jerry Stiller.  People didn't want to go big in scenes with Seinfeld, but somebody had to pump some fucking life into the damn scenes.  That's what made George's moments with his parents even funnier because he was usually the more animated guy in other parts of the episodes.

Now listen to me and listen to me good! When your wife, on her honeymoon, asks you to cock her, you cock her good, God damn it!
