Spooner or Castanza?

  • skank
    Simple question, in which role do you prefer Jerry Stiller, Arthur Spooner, the father in law of Doug Heffernan on 'The King of Queens', or, Frank Castanza, the father of George Castanza on Seinfeld?

    Costanza, but Spooner is close.

    He's great in both roles.

    Wow. . . I'm not even going to vote. Both are hilarious.

    Both are great, but Costanza.
  • Big Red Monster
    Frank "Cant Stand Ya" Costanza.

    Spooner. By far.

    I'll have to say Spooner because he is in almost every episode of King of Queens.

    Basement Artie!

    Spooner...he was more funny in that role.

    Sometimes on Seinfeld he wasn't funny...just annoying.

    "Oh but I'm basement Artie....I'd hate to lose that little moniker."

    I too voted for "the demented little circus monkey." Haha.

    Great poll, and since he's hilarious in both roles, I'm going with the age old line of thinking....

    Which show would suffer more if he WASN'T on it?

    I think, with that, I've got to take Spooner by a landslide.

    Both characters are very funny but like Upper90 said King of Queens would have suffered more without Arthur Spooner.

    I gotta go with Costanza, although I like both shows

    Spooner!

    I personally think Spooner is WAY funnier, but I did like the one Seinfeld when Steinbrenner was at the Costanza's to tell them (they thought) George was dead, and all his dad had to say was "WHY DID YOU TRADE JAY BUHNER?"

    Frank Costanza and it's not even close.
