About Seinfeld:
Seinfeld stars Jerry Seinfeld as a stand-up comedian whose life in New York City is made even more chaotic by his quirky group of friends who join him in wrestling with life's most perplexing, yet often trivial questions. Often described as "a show about nothing," Seinfeld mines the humor in life's mundane situations like waiting in line, searching for a lost item, or the trials and tribulations of dating. Co-starring are Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Jerry's ex-girlfriend and current platonic pal, Elaine Benes; Jason Alexander as George Costanza, Jerry's neurotic hard-luck best friend; and Michael Richards as Jerry's eccentric neighbor, Kramer.

Kramer Gives Mickey A 'Lift' | The Stand-In | Seinfeld

"I stood in for Punky Brewster when all of you was nothing!!!", such a brilliantly delivered showbizzy rant.

[Eidlones]

Mickey was a great character. Wish he showed up in a couple more episodes, really worked well with Kramer

[DarthWill]

_"Can't you just switch with another midget?"_ Mickey's immediate reaction, followed by Jerry's, is just hilarious! ROFL

[rafaelmartinvannostrand]

It's amazing how much chemistry Michael Richards had with so many actors of the series: Newman, Georges father, Mickey, Mr Peterman, the Seinfelds...

[scsmith]

Mickey is just another in the very long line of amazing supporting Seinfeld characters.

[InMotionForAMillion]

"Johnny Bigiano went through my locker...that LITTLE BASTARD!"

One of the most underrated Seinfeld lines from the entire series.

[trundlethegreat]

"any higher than that, I'm out on my ass doing that paralegal crap"

Underrated line from this show

[jeffw]

The face he makes and then tackles Kramer, so awesome 🤣

[nukathecat]

I wish they used Mickey more in the show. Absolutely brilliant

[crazyjoedavola]

I love that Mickey will fight anyone anytime 😆

[packergeek]

"I stood in for Punky Brewster when all yous was nothing."

[edp]

I love how heightening is comparable to juicing in sports.

[kellyanastasia]

A truly great and very underrated episode. Danny Woodburn and Michael Richards have a terrific chemistry.

[kidperk]

"Hey gives, whats going 🤨" 😂😂😂 my favorite part of this epsiode

[jeffw]

Tammy was in Total Recall, such an awesome scene with her and a machine gun 😄

[pcbacklash_]

I honestly cannot imagine how those actors can keep a straight face when they're saying those lines (even after repeating them in rehearsal)! Comedic talent aside, THAT is the most impressive talent in my opinion!

[classics]

The scene where they actually perform their stand-in work is one of the funniest scenes in TV history. Kramer totally overacts while reading the dad’s lines, whereas Mickey delivers the heartbroken child’s lines in the most monotone voice of all time: “how long you gonna be away for, Daddy? Don’t go, Daddy. Don’t. Go.” ROFL

[Redolentleek]

Episodes like these is why I can Seinfeld had more of a plot than friends despite being the show about nothing lol

[SalesforceUSA]

Nobody on this planet can replace Michael Richards in that role of Cosmo. He is gold. George is the best. Amazing

[hiredgun]

That Kramer take down at the end was amazing.
