Seinfeld welcomed many guest stars throughout its nine-season run on NBC. Most of them, however, weren’t household names, nor would they go on to be in the future.

He appeared in five episodes between 1994 and 1997, starting with Season 6’s “The Mom and Pop Store.” Here are a few clips of him breaking Jerry up during filming:The post 5 Comedy Stars Who Made Early-Career Appearances on ‘Seinfeld’ appeared first on VICE.
