This is even more hilarious to me because my roommate in college had the exact jacket about 6 years before it was on Seinfeld We knew we were in for a good night at the bars when he’d break it out.

Whenever foiled by his mailman nemesis, Jerry delivers a trademark cursing of his name, clenching his fist and exclaiming “Newman!”

Name at least three other names who are used by any character in the same fashion.

Go!

For a show of 180 episodes, they sure worked cigar gags in there…

Similarly, in Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, Neal Brennon tells Jerry, "I didn't really watch your show too often, but whenever I did, it always seemed like you guys were doing something related to a jacket. You lost a jacket, or you had to find a jacket......"

I laughed so hard when he said this. I never noticed it, but yes, there are a lot of jacket-related plot devices.

-Kramer's jacket in early seasons that he ends up trading for, wait for it, cigars.
-Jerry's Friars Club jacket
-Jerry buys a jacket and returns it for spite
-Jerry's expensive jacket with the pink lining

Another often used trope is "weirdos that want to be friends with Jerry"
-His childhood friend Joel Hornick in "Male Unbonding"
-Kenny Bania
-The comic in "The Movie" that wants to store something (can't remember what, probably a jacket lol) in Jerry's closet
-Ramon the pool guy

There was also the fur coat that Jerry had to pretend was his.

I love every thing about this.

One question pending still, but here’s another:

In “The Fatigues” episode, name all the mentor/protégé relationships. (Watching the episode, this sounded like a familiar question, so maybe I asked it before).

-Jerry’s girlfriend and her mentor
-George then becomes Jerry’s GF’s mentor
-Jerry mentors Bania
-Wilhelm notes at the end that George is his protege

Go!

Kevin does it playfully with "Vargas". The rest of these are guesses:

Jerry does it with "Pennypecker!"

Elaine does it with "George!"

George does it with "Newman!" and "Jerry!"

Ledbetterman10 · September 2023

Jerry tells George that he tends to "put these women on a pedestal."

Kramer chimes in, and says he puts women where?

That was the clip I was trying to replay in my head to answer the question! Hilarious they end that with Newman's "Jambalaya!"

they stole that Greatest American Hero answering machine outgoing message from me. lol. I used to make funny outgoing messages all the time (people would call me and get disappointed when I answered-they wanted to hear my message). This was a popular one. When this episode aired a few years after I did it, my buddy and I looked at each other in disbelief. the lyrics are actually pretty close the same.

Elaine also mentors Eddie from the mailroom. “You and your demented protege!”

vant0037 · September 2023

In the “Andrea Doria,” Jerry delivers mail for Newman in an effort to help him get his transfer to Hawaii.

Name at least two other fake jobs that a character holds during the show.

HughFreakingDillon · September 2023

Kramer working for old man Leland.

Elaine working as the maintenance person at the apartment block to get chinese food delivery.

Vitalogensia · September 2023

You know what Kramer did for Brandt Leland? TCB.

George as an architect and a latex salesman are good ones.

Kramer did movie phone.

Jerry acted as a doorman for Larry Miller's character.

Mr. Pitt mistook Jerry for a pharmacist, not sure if that counts.
