Jerry Seinfeld

Jerry Seinfeld is the main protagonist on the United States television sitcom Seinfeld (1989–1998). This semi-fictional version of comedian Jerry Seinfeld was named after, based on, and played by Seinfeld himself. The series revolves around Jerry's misadventures with his best friend George Costanza, neighbor Cosmo Kramer, and ex-girlfriend Elaine Benes.

He and his friends also frequently appear in "Monk's", a fictional cafe.... full article at wikipedia
