'Newman' (played by Wayne Knight): Jerry and Kramer's vengeful and spasmodic neighbor, this character only appeared from 1992 onwards. Originally conceived to be "the son of the landlord 'tells' on everyone", Newman evolved as the series progressed into a scheming mailman who was friends with Kramer but nursed a grudge against Jerry. During Season 2 only his voice was heard. An example of this is when he annoys Kramer by claiming that he's planning to commit suicide. Originally, Larry David did some of the voice work for Newman before the character was fully developed. In subsequent reworkings of the early episodes his voice was re-dubbed with Wayne Knight's. While Newman was portrayed as Jerry's arch-nemesis he remained close friends with Kramer. Jerry has described Newman as "pure evil" and always greets him with "Hello... Newman" in a sarcastic, disgusted tone. Newman is also known to go into long, frustrated diatribes about his duties delivering the mail that end only when someone snaps him out of it.;
'Frank Costanza' (played by Jerry Stiller and, in only one episode, John Randolph — his scenes were re-shot) and 'Estelle Costanza' (played by Estelle Harris): doting parents of George; they live in Queens. Frank is a scene-stealer who disliked Elaine but liked Kramer. He treats his grown son, George, as though he were a rebellious teen, sometimes grounding him and slapping him in the head. He speaks fluent Korean and had an affair with a Korean woman while on duty in Korea. He also suffers from a foot odor problem.;
'Susan Ross' (played by Heidi Swedberg): ex-fiancée of George, dies from toxic wedding invitation envelope adhesive. She was a former executive at NBC when Jerry and George were pitching Jerry. After her death, George is roped into being a trustee for her memorial charity foundation. Susan hates Kramer for various reasons: In one episode, he drinks some bad milk and throws up on her; in another, Kramer burns down her father's cabin; when Susan becomes a lesbian, Kramer steals her girlfriend; and in the last episode in which Susan was alive, Kramer forgets her name (he calls her "Lily"). She disliked him to the point he was not invited to her and George's wedding, because "he'd probably fall and ruin the whole thing.";
'Helen Seinfeld' (played by Liz Sheridan): Jerry's mom. She adores Jerry and often asks rhetorically, "How could anyone not like him?" She keeps her and Morty's condo at an unbearable heat level.;
