About Seinfeld:
Seinfeld stars Jerry Seinfeld as a stand-up comedian whose life in New York City is made even more chaotic by his quirky group of friends who join him in wrestling with life's most perplexing, yet often trivial questions. Often described as "a show about nothing," Seinfeld mines the humor in life's mundane situations like waiting in line, searching for a lost item, or the trials and tribulations of dating. Co-starring are Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Jerry's ex-girlfriend and current platonic pal, Elaine Benes; Jason Alexander as George Costanza, Jerry's neurotic hard-luck best friend; and Michael Richards as Jerry's eccentric neighbor, Kramer.

Vandelay industries is a real market leader when it comes to latex importers. Art Vandelay is a genius. Not only an extraordinary architect, he is also a beat novelist and a succesful businessman

He should’ve won an Emmy. His neurotic delivery/humor is much more complex and satisfying than Kramer’s physical humor. He’s based on Larry David after all.

[@redacted2275]

​@@steverogers7601*"Vandelay* Industries"? 🤨 "Latex manufacturer" is a field of work, not the company's name. "Latex salesman" is a job position, not the company's name.

[@eduardo_corrochio]

Vandelay Industries was one of their best recurring references. The writers kept bringing it back sporadically in conversation over the years, and if you recall we got two final nods to the company: in the second to last regular episode, The Puerto Rican Day Parade, there's a scene where George and Kramer and Jerry happen to bump into each other in an apartment and must adapt their aliases to fool a realtor; and in The Finale, the judge presiding in the court room was named Arthur Vandelay. I looked it up, out of curiosity, and the name was created in the second episode of season 1 (The Stakeout). George and Jerry are trying to create a fictional friend to get out of something. The name Vandelay was just produced out of thin air--- there was no real person who inspired Larry David or the writers. The name Art Vandelay supposedly is heard mentioned in eleven episodes of Seinfeld. Man, this show's minutiae is amazing.

[@rjathar]

To think that Vandelay industries came so close to being Corvelay industries, if not for the appearance of an employee from Sagman Bennett Robbins Oppenheim & Taft :) Love how Kramer is constantly interrupting everyone and everything, but refuses to be interrupted himself

Interesting fact: the line And you want to be my latex salesman was ad-libbed. Jerry was just supposed to open the door and look down. The scene was supposed to end there
