Melinda Clarke played Jerry’s girlfriend Alex before she took the world by storm, starring on “The OC.” As Alex, she guest-starred on the “The Muffin Tops” episode. It’s mostly about Elaine’s fixation for muffin tops and the subsequent marketing adventure of a just-the-tops bakery shop. Meanwhile, Jerry’s fixated about chest hair.
Specifically, his new girlfriend thinks he’s naturally hairless. But actually, a shaving mishap resulted in his having to shave his chest completely. He doesn’t want to tell her. These days, Clarke has been taking a break from acting. She last appeared on “Gotham” in 2016.
Nina
Independent film actress Catherine Keener was Jerry’s girlfriend, Nina, on “The Letter” episode. She played a quirky artist who painted a massive portrait of Kramer. Keener has distinguished her career by earning two Oscar nominations for "Being John Malkovich" and for "Capote."
In the "Seinfeld" episode, Nina pens a letter to Jerry, which inspires him to give her a call. She writes, “You mean so much to me that I’m willing to take all your abuse and insults and insensitivity.” Jerry’s sold. Keener’s latest work was in the successful horror flick, "Get Out."
Lois
Renee Props visits "Seinfeld" for “The Race.” In this episode, she is Lois. Seinfeld is wild about her because her name, Lois, reminds him of Lois Lane, which would make him Superman. He thinks his high school track record, winning by a long shot as a freshman, proves his super-powers.
Of course, when she discovers he cheated with a head start, he loses the girl by the end of the episode, as usual. Renee Props has been an actress since her crucial role on CBS’s daytime soap opera, "As the World Turns." She’s also guest-starred on several TV shows and films.
Jenna
A "Seinfeld" appearance could launch a career. This is undoubtedly the case with Kristin Davis. A year after she played Seinfeld’s “toothbrush in the toilet bowl” girlfriend, she landed Charlotte on "Sex and the City," receiving two SAGs and several Emmy nominations.
As Jenna, Davis was privileged to be invited back for another episode. Last year, she told the "Today" that Jerry enjoyed “scaring the guest stars to death.” She said she was very nervous about appearing on "Seinfeld." In the day, it was an ‘It phenom’ attracting everyone who was anyone. Lately, she’s been scaling back, chillin’ it with a $60 million net worth.
Laura
Marlee Matlin was a very special guest when she joined the show for the “The Lip Reader” episode. The deaf actress is celebrated widely for her Oscar-winning role in "Children of a Lesser God" and her support of deaf rights. As in the film, Matlin plays a deaf woman.
Her role on "Seinfeld" summarily shatters deaf stereotypes with a spectacular performance portraying Jerry’s girlfriend, Laura. George’s crazy idea to have Laura spy on a conversation across the room at a party turns out to be a hilarious illustration of the skill of lip reading.
