The *least interesting* minor Seinfeld characters

    Hmmm...Seinfeld ended how many years ago, and now we're trolling our brains for the least interesting minor character? As many times as I've watched the reruns, I can't say I've made a note to remember the boring characters.

    So...um...how about the AIDS walk guys who mugged Kramer? Or Kramer's mom? Nana had a boring storyline, too.

    I never found Mickey to be anything special, either.

    Here's a list: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Seinfeld_minor_characters

    The gay muggers are incredible.

    Mickey was funny. The monologue he gave after getting caught lifting, while in a comedic setting, was as pure as anything and probably hit close to home for little people in the industry. That was a real moment.

    Agree on the gay muggers, who are perfect in the scene where they're jacking Elaine's armoire.

    Nana was vegetarian lasagna but that's what she was supposed to be.

    Having a tough time figuring out "least interesting" ...

    I disagree. The episode where Uncle Leo is arrested for stealing books is pretty good. Also like the watch episode. Uncle Leo's roles in both helped make the bits funny.

    Still hate her. Figured out she was actually playing herself!

    I'll give another....Jerry's girlfriend who talked baby talk in the Soup Nazi episode. I always wondered why they never showed reruns of the Soup Nazi episode, until I figured out he came later in the baby talk girlfriend episode. I always turned it off it because she was so annoying, then would miss the Soup Nazi parts.

    And George's parents were particularly annoying, as they were meant to be,

    Played by Alexandra Wentworth, who was Peter Gibbons' original girlfriend in "Office Space."

    Kathy Griffins as a stand-up comic and general celebrity annoys me, but she was good in her two Sally Weaver episodes.
