Yea it really sucks it was cut from the episode recording that I had. I was looking for that everywhere in the material and remembered seeing it, but did not have it in good quality. Sorry it's not in this compilation, only scene missing and it would have been one of the best.
maybe that should start to be my mindset i dunno lol and then when my grandmother makes a big deal about something i can be like "im not too worried about it lol"

I love how Kruger doesn't mind that George broke into his office to tamper with the family photo. Instead follows up with "well I'll be, you have lost a lot of hair"😂😂😂 And this is why Seinfeld is the goat. S tier comedy
I love just how quickly T-Bone takes a bizarre pride in his new nickname (13:35) and how quickly Coco joins in the chanting culture (15:24). I get that the joke is that Kruger is the boss version of George the employee, but the whole company is just as crazy and incompetent as he is.
I'm just learning from you about his personal life after Seinfeld, I googled & read about him & I listened to the 911 recording when he called after his attempted suicide. Apparently he lived on for a few more years after the fact.
On February 20, 2012, Von Bargen shot himself in the temple in an apparent suicide attempt. He managed to call 911, and an ambulance was dispatched to his apartment in Montgomery, Ohio. He suffered from diabetes and had previously had a leg amputated. When calling 911, he told the operator that he was scheduled to have two of his remaining toes amputated but didn't want to undergo another surgery. "I have no children and no life, and I'm tired," he said. Von Bargen played fewer and fewer roles as his diabetes worsened. His last role was in the comedy London Betty in 2009. Von Bargen died on March 1, 2015 of undisclosed causes at 64 years old.[15][16][17] The Washington Post reported that his death "came after an unspecified long illness."[18]
Daniel von Bargen, who portrayed Mr. Kruger, died in 2015, aged 64, after a long illness. The latter years of von Bargen''s life were extremely sad including diabetes, a leg amputation, and shooting himself in the temple in a suicide attempt. At the time, von Bargen remarked "I have no children and no life, and I'm tired" When he gets to Heaven, I hope his first words are: "I find your belief system fascinating" 😂 Meanwhile, the epitaph on his memorial reads "I'm not too worried about it". R.I.P. Daniel von Bargen
Daniel von Bargen was so funny as Mr. Krueger in Seinfeld, and as Commandant Spangler in Malcolm in the middle. Bless his heart for all the laughs. RIP.
Truly heart breaking, Malcolm in the middle will always have a place in my heart because I'm the same age as those boys. I treasure those times and I'll miss them dearly I wish I wasn't such a troubled youth.
Daniel was a brilliant comedic.Actor comedic actor one of the best ever.His contributions to Seinfeld are legendary.He stole every scene he was ever in here didn't steal it.He owned it
Daniel von Bargen who was great here suffered from Diabetes , lost a foot. He shot himself in the head and missed. He temple shot, missed the brain and made himself blind. There is a tragic 911 call. He died a few years later, thankfully. He was a good actor.
I wish he was on the whole series. He stole every scene. As awesome as David Puddy was/is Kruger was just a little more to me. He even stole the scene at Festivitis with Geroge's dad and Kramer
This is part of what made Seinfeld great. So many side characters that were actually funny. It would have been hard focusing on just four characters all of the time as the only funny ones.
He only had 15 minutes of actual air time on the series, but he stole every scene and made a huge impact.
Kruger was an A+
@@ClydeHUC *Kuger

lol
It’s hard to believe he shot himself

Kruger and peterman where my favorite side character/ boss's
I liked Jackie
Steinbrenner
Omg, the side characters....they were all great. Peterman was hilarious, George's parents...perfect.
It’s a real shame what happened to the actor that played Kruger. Probably one of the most depressing things I’ve ever read.
Don’t you dare forget Mr Bookman the library cop!
My favourite Kruger scene
"Oh damn I've locked myself out of my office again...alright...I'm going home" 🤣
Which episode?

It has become a very useful mantra for me

The MOST underrated Seinfeld side character! Kruger makes me laugh so hard every time!
"Look at George givin it to T-Bone"
von Bargen had many tragic years late in life, but he brought us all so much joy.
We're grateful for you, Daneil. RIP.
Well said, a great character actor. Handled drama and comedy equally well. Thank you, Daniel.

Kruger is a legend. Too bad he wasn’t a regular character.
But he was, he was recurring...
@@JohnBloggs-m8l he was only on 4 episodes.
@@justindb18 more than one per season is a regular. Four certainly is.

@@JohnBloggs-m8l newman and george's parents were regular. kruger was recurring, like bania, tim wheatley or sally weaver.
Watching this now I see how he had a hard time delivering lines without smiling. Kruger is a model for my professional life.
Kruger to Mr Costanza : "I find your belief system fascinating "
Kruger is the most nonchalant care free character in the entire show lol guy gives NF at all
The secret to Seinfeld was the occasional characters that stay memorable years later even though they may have appeared in one or two eps.
I agree wholeheartedly, so many to choose from, I'm not sure if Newman qualifies but he was my favorite character, Puddy, Poppy, Mr. Benes and Mr. Bookman were all pretty good too
Krueger must be wondering why Dr. Van Nostrand has to work a double shift at H&H Bagles...
He's not too worried about it.
😂😂😂😂
Kugar didn't think that deeply.
@@kbrewski1 You're probably right. He might just shrug and think "I don't care".
RIP Von Bargen
he didn't deserve to go the way he did, very sad
My favorite Kruger's line was, when he called George a pear shaped loser 😂
Lol…me too. I just left the same comment before I came across yours. It’s such a perfect line. He says it so casually
Not COCO THE MONKEY 😂
Kruger was excellent on Seinfeld! So smooth and funny . Hard to top his performances.
RIP Von Bargen(actor that played Kruger), you continue to make me laugh when I really need it, thats how i will always remember you! ❤
The way K uger casually flicks the accounting report showing there is no Human Fund with his finger always kills me.
I love how Kruger doesn't mind that George broke into his office to tamper with the family photo. Instead follows up with "well I'll be, you have lost a lot of hair"😂😂😂
And this is why Seinfeld is the goat. S tier comedy
lol at him being more mad about the fake card than george committing payroll fraud
I love just how quickly T-Bone takes a bizarre pride in his new nickname (13:35) and how quickly Coco joins in the chanting culture (15:24). I get that the joke is that Kruger is the boss version of George the employee, but the whole company is just as crazy and incompetent as he is.
I love that he didn't like that George was at his last job for 4 days... but it was okay when it was actually fourteen. 😂
The funniest boss Eva..RIP KRUGER
such a great character actor. was in a million roles
sad end to his life
“What a pear shaped loser” gets me every time
The actor that played Mr. Kruger had a sad life after Seinfeld. RIP Daniel von Bargen.
I never knew that. So sad, he brought so much joy as Mr. Kruger.

I never noticed that parallel with "it's all me" before. This show has very thoughtful writing.
Daniel von Bargen was so funny as Mr. Krueger in Seinfeld, and as Commandant Spangler in Malcolm in the middle.
Bless his heart for all the laughs. RIP.
I looked him up. What a sad story. I swear I’ve seen him in more than his listed Filmography. Rip

Kind and true words. He was a great actor and had some memorable scenes in Seinfeld.
For real, an incredibly sad end for a guy that brought - and continues to bring - a lot of joy to a lot of people.
Cougar’s mole is on his back but shows up on photo of his front side. That’s one magical mole!
“ I guess this is the ugly girl I’ve been hearing about” 🤣🤣😂
Even "ugly" Elaine is still very attractive.
I don’t care what anyone else calls him, I will always remember this as the time when Gerald Ford was George Costanza’s boss.
Lol
Then he gave it all up and become an instructor at the military academy in Malcom In The Middle
@@mitchconner403 yes.😳
RIP KRUGER…The funniest &coolest boss eva
Out of a the BS George pulled @ Kruger, Kruger was most upset that George gave him a fake Xmas gift🤣 he was legitimately hurt by that🤣😂🤣
I forgot how funny that character was. Seinfeld was the GOAT.
Gammy's getting upset!!
“Hello, I sorry, no here Kruger” 😂😂😂😂
.......are ya done?

Is that like a disease that is only contracted during Festivus?
Word up
Kruger's dedication to nihilism as a life philosophy is seriously admirable
I'm not too worried about it
Hahaa I love K uger 😂
That pear-shaped loser was ME!
“What a pear shaped loser” what a great line 🤣🤣🤣
The look Jerry gives Kramer 😂
Kramer saying "It's a festivus Miracle!" played on commercials every day on multiple tv channels. It's burned into my memory.
Gammy’s gettin’ Upset!!!
"Freckles that cover two men...."
Love the Festivus one where George says "I can prove it, if I have to?" thinking no way Krugar would call his bluff and go to his parents house.
I was expecting him to say "Do you wanna see flesh through HR's eye?"
May Daniel rest in peace after what he has endured during his last years.
That double layered chocolate cake in the cafe looked so delish! I want a piece like that so much!
Good thinking, Cougar.
somebody needs to give you a raise for this
His big smile is amazing 😂
Kruger was a hero. Short and sweet. He was great.
George had to figure he was going to be called out on the 20,000 check as it was nicely folded without hardly a wrinkle on it all.
Lol Kramers "getting into character" moment before he goes in to see Kruger always makes me chuckle.
OMG, the best one might be "Krugar Industrial Smoothing is heading into the red.....or the black....whatever the bad one is."
You skipped the best joke where he locks himself out of his office and goes home. I can’t believe you did that!
This is part of what made Seinfeld great. So many side characters that were actually funny. It would have been hard focusing on just four characters all of the time as the only funny ones.
They picked a boss who was dumber than George. Gotta love him. 💎
Kruger: “Whatever.”
George: “ _Exactly_ . ”
7:27 this was an ad lib, wasn’t it…? I remember reading about it somewhere
Would be awesome if true
I always got a kick out of the way he says to George, “Are you making all this up, too?”
Hilarious, thanks!

Well then we should call you, T Bone.

Peterman, Krueger and uncle Leo are my fave side characters.
Newman!
And Frank!
I find your belief system fascinating.....Dr. Van Nostrumd...great!
I'm not too worried about it
Daniel von Bargen is really good.
Yea it was like, he didn't do anything special. Just being himself was enough to steal the scene.
Hmm fiber from shirt on left shoulder... Gonna have to keep an eye on that...
Can you imagine Cougar was one of the sane ones in this series.
Cougar, Mr Peterman, Jackie Chiles, Puddy, Bookman, The Moel.
