#ThankAMailmanDay
"Thank a Mailman Day" arrives this week, and TBS is going to
celebrate by inviting viewers to say, "Hello, Newman," to an evening
of Seinfeld episodes featuring Jerry Seinfeld's
sworn enemy from down the hall. Airing Wednesday, Feb. 4, from 6-8 p.m. (ET/PT),
TBS's "Thank a Mailman Day" celebration will include four Unforgettable Newman episodes, with Wayne
Knight playing the always-scheming mailman to slimy perfection. After
spending two straight hours with Newman, viewers are certain to come away with
a greater appreciation of the hard-working mail carriers in their own lives.
Newman is
one of the most popular recurring characters featured on Seinfeld. With
his maniacal laugh and twisted mind, Newman is Jerry's arch nemesis, the Lex
Luthor to Jerry's Superman, though the reasons for their long-held enmity
remain shrouded in mystery. To make matters worse, Jerry and Newman can't seem
to stay out of each other's lives, especially since Newman is a close friend of
Jerry's pal Kramer (Michael Richards).
Episodes
chosen for TBS's "Thank a Mailman Day" celebration include "The
Label Maker," in which Jerry gets stuck sitting next to Newman
at the Super Bowl; "The Package,"
which has Newman investigate Jerry for mail fraud; and "The Andrea
Doria," in which Jerry is roped into helping Newman deliver the
mail. The lineup wraps up with "The Junk Mail," in
which Newman reveals the shocking truth about the Postmaster General and his
diabolical plans.
