Relation to other NBC series
It is worth mentioning a supporting role in the first three seasons, as well as in the last episode. Lisa Kudrow acted as a clumsy waitress named Ursula Buffay who works at the place where Jamie and Paul spend most of their time when they are away from home. When Kudrow appeared as one of the main characters, Phoebe Buffay, in the series Friends later that evening , Ursula was made her twin sister. Helen Hunt (as Jamie) and Leila Kenzle (as Fran) also made a guest appearance on Friends in the 16th episode of the first season .
In the eighth episode of the first season ( The Apartment , German title: Die Junggesellenbude ) Michael Richards has a guest appearance as Cosmo Kramer from Seinfeld . He lives in Paul's bachelor apartment, which, to Jamie's chagrin, he has not given up yet. In a scene in the corridor in front of that apartment, Paul Kramer asks:
- Paul: "Hey, what happened to Jerry who lived here?"
- Kramer: "He's writing a sitcom for NBC."
On November 3, 1994, three TV series on NBC were linked as part of Blackout Thursday . In the sixth episode of the third season ( Pandora's Box , Die Schwarzseher ), Jamie triggers a power failure in New York City, the effects of which were seen in broadcasts of episodes of the series Friends and Madman of the People that same evening . The NBC series Seinfeld was not involved in the project that evening.
