who played peterman on seinfeld
John O'Hurley still remembers every one of his crazy monologues: Sadly, most of them were cut from the show.. On a series filled with strange characters, no one on Seinfeld was quite like J. Peterman (John O'Hurley). Elaine's (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) boss would speak in long, evocative passages, and it turns out that many of his most insane moments ended up on the cutting room floor.
