Trivia
The storyline involving Kramer (Michael Richards) objecting to being a character in "the show about nothing" mirrors Larry David's experience when his neighbor, Kenny Kramer, initially objected to having a character named after him in the Seinfeld series.

Goofs
Just following the moment Kramer (Michael Richards) calls Newman (Wayne Knight) "Mojambo", you can see Jerry (Jerry Seinfeld) laughing and struggling keep a straight face.

Quotes
Jerry Seinfeld: [after Newman leaves with Kramer's radar detector] Does that thing work?
Cosmo Kramer: [almost before Jerry is even finished] Nah.

Nothing from Nothing Is Nothing

NBC shows an interest in Jerry, asking if he might be interested in a possible series. But he needs to come up with an idea. George gets the idea that the show should be about "nothing." And Jerry buys into it and takes it to the producers. It is hilarious as George gets on his high horse trying to sell his ridiculous idea. Newman and Kramer exchange a helmet for a radar detector which will lead to a whole other issue. Also, there is a psychotic guy who must be feared.
