That Michael Richards Rant
Remember that one time Kramer went on a crazed tangent? Actor Michael Richards was delivering a standup set at the Laugh Factory in 2006 when he was being heckled by crowds. Rather than just deal with it like a professional, he released a slew of tasteless comments that he later said he felt intensely sorry for.
Nothing Without "Seinfeld"
Unfortunately, Michael Richards has been typecast as his Kramer character. He did manage to recover after that unprecedented rant, and even appeared on "Seinfeld" creator Larry David's show "Curb Your Enthusiasm." Otherwise, he hasn't been up to much.
