Ah, beat me to it, did they? I never could watch "Seinfeld," it just annoyed the heck out of me. Everyone on that show bugged me in the same way Roseanne Barr/Arnold/Whatever did on her show; they always telegraphed the jokes with a look that says, "watch me say this next line...this is gonna be so witty..." Bleh. Everyone, that is, except Michael Richards, who played his spastic dufus character from the old "Fridays" sketch show, a caricature so incongruously over-the-top it was like writing Woody Woodpecker into "Friends".
On the other hand, I understand they did squeeze in a lot of pre-Crisis Superman lore, so kudos for spreading the faith, I guess.

Good point. Though later writers went way overboard making everything about Bizarro and his world the "opposite" of Superman and Earth, in point of fact Bizarro is a pretty faithful copy of Superman down to the physique and even costume; he's just mentally deficient and has a chalky, craggy epidermis.
If he was the opposite of Superman, he'd be non-powered and female.
Or Tom Welling. (That's right I said it!)
