Festivus: I’ll get the pole out of the crawl space

Who is Frank Costanza?

Frank Costanza (Jerry Stiller) is George’s father and the show’s most combustible man: Korean-speaking ex-salesman, TV Guide collector, co-inventor of the Bro (or Manssiere), and — above all — the founder of Festivus, the December 23rd holiday for the rest of us. Airing of Grievances at dinner, Feats of Strength to close. Serenity now.
