I would think that a comedian like
Andy Kaufman would have turned you off.
I worshiped Andy Kaufman.
He was the first comedian I
ever heard of on Long Island.
That's why I went into the city to go to
these clubs because my friend told me,
there's a guy in New York,
he's going on at this club.
He's playing the bongos and he's
crying in rhythm to the bongos,
and we thought, that's the funniest thing
I ever heard. We got to see this guy.
So then I went into Catch a
Rising Star to see what it was,
But it wasn't jokes. It wasn't
the, it was more performance art.
It was, if it's good, we love it, Howard.
It's the same with music. You love
classical, you love jazz, you love rock.
If it's good, you love it.
I think he would have fit in
well into the Seinfeld cast.
I'm talking about your
sit-com now that, yeah.
In the way that Andy was on Taxi with
his character is the same kind of thing
like Michael Richards.
You know, that's funny that,
it's funny that you say that because
Michael Richards is one of those parts.
You could never cast somebody
else, but now that you mention it,
Andy could have pulled off Kramer.
He could have. The only name I've ever
heard that, now that you mention it,
the only other guy who could
have pulled off Kramer.
