Seinfeld as an Extra

I don't know if anybody else notices, but in the episode "Muffy's Bat-Mitzvah" Jerry Seinfeld can be seen in the background shaking the rabbi's hand during the first reception scene

That's interesting, because Tracy Nelson guest starred on a Seinfeld episode ("The Cartoon").

And SJP and Matthew Broderick are buddies with the Seinfelds. I wonder if that dates back to Square Pegs.

Jami Gertz was too, "Can you just "spare a square"? (toilet paper)

Gee, thanks. Another happy childhood memory ruined. I'll never be able to enjoy Square Pegs again.

You gotta be kidding me! I just watched that episode last night, and I was sure the guy looked just like him, and I even rewound to check it out, and I still thought it looked like him. Amazing!

It is not Seinfeld. The head is to round and even with the short screenshot you can see that his nose is the wrong shape.

I don't think it's him :( I think it's a member of Devo. Look when they run up on stage....the guy on the far right. It's the same guy that the rabbi shakes hands with, I think.

I just watched it. That absolutely was NOT Jerry Seinfeld.

It looked like someone put Seinfeld's face into a garbage disposal and tried to piece it back together, and then poorly applied it over some guy's head.

But no. Not Seinfeld.
