What an amazing talent she is. Julia sported a wide variety of looks during the show’s run that didn’t always flatter her appearance but her personality always made her irresistible. Seinfeld had a lot of very attractive female actresses playing the various girlfriends and romantic interests for the guys but Julia was never outshone.

@@40yearoldman They were SPECIALISTS: so highly developed in their respective fields that their work can't be duplicated (although, Carol has done some fine dramatic work, also. See the TV movie FRIENDLY FIRE). Hollywood history, especially, comedy, is built on the work of Specialists: think Chaplin/Keaton/Lloyd. "Versatility" is overrated. There is a great deal of merit behind the phrase 'jack of all trades, and master of none'.
