Seinfeld's 'Uncle Leo' dead at 88

STORY

Len Lesser did a lot more than play "Uncle Leo", but man was he funny in that role.

Very over the top and hilarious.

RIP Uncle Leo

"Demeanor?" His scenes always crack me up. A character actor I remember from way back, he played a lot of bad guys. Had a nice part in The Outlaw Josey Wales. RIP.

He was great and will be long remembered.
RIP Mr. Lesser, I wish we could have had more of you.

who else is still alive from sienfield...

The entire main cast and the vast majority of the secondary cast. (The only members of the secondary cast who've died is Morty Seinfeld (Barry Martin) and now Uncle Leo (Len Lester.)

So, yeah, pretty much all of Seinfeld's cast is still alive as the Seinfelds and even Uncle Leo weren't used nearly as often as, say, Elaine's various bosses, George's bosses or even George's parents.

Thanks for the laughs Mr. Lesser, RIP.

just read the NYT obit, describing an encounter with Uncle Leo as...

"a meandering digression of increasingly unbearable inconsequentiality"

incredible.
RIP, Uncle Leo.

Wouldn't that apply to basically all the Seinfeld characters? And I say that as a fan.

GOOD-BYE Uncle Leo.

I just saw him the other day while watching my Get Smart complete series set. He played a KAOS agent. He had a toupee and was wearing glasses so I didn't recognize him at first.
