As much as I like him, though, the doorman story line isn't among my favorites. 

That's one of the episodes I'll take a pass on.  Just don't like it (although Larry Miller did a memorable job in the episode, just like Bryan Cranston was so unforgettable in his few scenes as the dentist--who converted to Judaism for the jokes).  I think Bryan was in 2 episodes.  They really used some great actors for small roles.

Speaking of Bryan Cranston, here's a favorite Seinfeld-related moment from the 2014 Emmys.

I just learned that Peter Dinklage played the sexy wake-up call guy on "The Wink." I didn't have a clue! And even though I'd seen "The Masseuse" multiple  times,  I had never realized  that the titular character was played by Jennifer Coolidge until my husband figured out it was her.

According to IMDB he was in five:

The Mandelbaums were on again.  Sonny was driving Jerry's blood-filled-engine car while Izzy shouted "faster" through the microphone to Jerry who was trying to jog behind them.

Oh I loved the Mandelbaums.   What was that Izzy called Jerry?  Was it buttercup or daffodil.  

Festivus is probably my all time fave, but I    Also loved the one where Frank turned Georges old room into a pool hall ("Its the place to be!") and used Maestros conductor wand as a cue when they figured out they couldn't use standard cues.

There' s another scene that stands out for me.  It's when George repeatedly becomes a captive of J. Peterman and he's riding in the car to visit Peterman's mother who is very ill.  My favorite part is when Peterman takes a corner turn so hard that George's face is smeared into the window.  I don't know why but I always laugh joyously when I see that little scene (it's the only reason I watch that episode cause the rest of it annoys me).

That's probably my favorite line of the whole series.  Mainly because it sums up so much about the series in just one quote.

Actor Jon Polito(Miller's Crossing, Homicide: Life On the Street) died of cancer at the age of 65. He recounted how he got the role of "Silvio", Jerry and Kramer's building superintendent and came up with the character's accent due to a bad fax machine:

That is  an awesome story by Polito! I'm  sorry to hear he died relatively  young. When I  hear  his name the first  scene  I  think of is always  him awkwardly flirting with Billy Bob Thornton in The Man Who Wasn't   There.
