Just saw him in “The Taking of Pelham 123” with Walter Matthau. He was a funny dude even when he wasn’t trying to be.

He worked in the trenches for years with his wife but only became widely known due to Seinfield. Ill bet he was on Ed Sullivan with wife Anne Meara, more than a few times.

They were known as Stiller and Meara, a comedy act.

the first time I saw Jerry Stiller was in the old Equalizer series in the 80’s.

He definitely broke into popular culture with his role on Seinfeld, but I would venture that he is most well-known for his time on King Of Queens in which he had a lot more acting credits there.

According to IMDB he appeared in 206 episodes of KoQ, compared to only 26 episodes of Seinfeld. He’s funny in both, but personally I laughed more at his crazy father in-law stint during KoQ.

The husband of a couple who began as a comedy team knocking Catholic-Jewish intermarriages, and quite successfully making it work.

He will be missed. The Festivus King!
