Over the course of one month, we lost the two "Seinfeld 'mothers": Estelle Harris, who played George's mother, passed away in early April.

Quite poetically, about two weeks later she was joined by Liz Sheridan, who played Jerry's mother.

The two will meet in heaven Jerry Stiller, who played George's father and passed away exactly two years ago, and Bernie Martin, who played Jerry's father and died in 2005.

In their memory and memory, and on the occasion of Mother's Day which we celebrated this week in America, the Binger podcast from the podium dedicated a special episode to the parents of "Seinfeld" - including Kramer's mother and Elaine's father.

What are the highlights of each of them?

Why did Elaine's father appear in only one episode?

Why did they replace the original actors who played Jerry's dad and George's dad?

All this and more in the full episode, that the memories he spreads illustrate one simple fact - "Seinfeld" was at her best every time her parents were in the picture.
