What's the Soup Nazi doing now?

One of the most popular characters from Seinfeld was, of course, The Soup Nazi. He was played by character actor, Larry Thomas. I would assume by the hundreds of times I see this episode in syndication each year that Larry makes a bundle in residual checks each month. However, I may be wrong... because the Soup Nazi is now starring in a series of infomercials for log cabins. This opens up a whole new genre of marketing: the "Little known Seinfeld character sell". Gee, maybe the marble rye lady could advertise for power equipment. Babu would be a great spokesperson for frozen TV dinners and I think Banya could sell feminine hygiene products like no one's business!

Check out the video below (and be sure to watch the last few seconds!!!)

  2. A special thanks to our friend, Larry Thomas, the Soup Nazi from Seinfeld, who is generous enough in spite of his busy acting schedule, to donate his time to help us promote our family business, Mountain Creations Cedar Log & Timber Homes. We love him and he is truly a member of our family. You rock, Larry!
