Jerry Seinfeld Tops New List of Favorite Tv Personalities The THE HARRIS POLL #84 Monday, December 9,1996 JERRY SEINFELD TOPS NEW LIST OF FAVORITE TV PE RSONALlTlES PUSHING TIM ALLEN DOWN TO SECOND PLACE Oprah Winfrey (#3), Bill Cosby (#4) and David Letterman (#5) retain next three places. by Humphrey Taylor For the last 3 years - 1993 through 1995 -- Tim Allen has come top of the Harris Poll's list of most popular TV personalities. This year he has been knocked out of the top spot by Jerry Seinfeld who was #4 in 1993, #3 in 1994 and #2 last year. Having moved up one position each year since 1993, Jerry Seinfeld can now go no higher. Oprah Winfrey retains her #3 position, Bill Cosby moves up from #5 to #4, and David Letterman drops from #4 to #5. These are based on the results of a survey of 1,000 adults surveyed between November 8 and 11. Others who retain their place on this top ten list, with little or no change in their ranking, are Martin Lawrence at #6, Roseanne Barr at #7,Kelsey Grammer at equal #8 and Jay Leno at equal #lo. The three new names on the list are Rosie O'Donnell (equal #8), Peter Jennings (equal #I 0) and Drew Carey (equal #I0). Some of these stars are particularly popular among various segments of the total population. Tim Allen is still number one among men. Oprah Winfrejl tops the list among women. Martin Lawrence, in sixth position overall, comes top among people aged 18-24 and among African-Americans. Louis Harris and Associates, Inc. 11 1 Fifth Avenue NYC (212) 539-9600 - As this is the end of another presidential campaign, it is notable that Tim Allen wins among Republicans while Jerry Seinfeld tops the list among Democrats. 2 The only person on last year's top ten list who drops off this year is Brett Butler. Looking at the types of shows that favorite TV personalities represent, 37% of all the stars named appear in sitconis or comedy shows, followed by talk shows (14%), prime time dramas (6%), news personalities (4%), game shows (2%), prime time action shows (2%), animated shows (1%) and soap operas (1%). Humphrey Taylor is the Chairman and CEO of Louis Harris and Associates, Inc. TABLE 1 FAVORITE TV PERSONALITY "Who is your favorite TV personality?"

Figures for age, sex, race, education and nurr~berof adults in household were weighted where necessary to bring them into line with their actual proportions in the population. In theory, with a sample of this size, one can say with 95 percent certainty that the results have a statistical precision of plus or minus 3 percentage points of what they would be if the entire adult population had been polled with complete accuracy. Unfortunately, there are several other possible sources of error in all polls or surveys that are probably more serious than theoretical calculations of sampling error. They include refusals to be interviewed (non-response), question wording and question order, interviewer bias, weighting by demographic control data and screening (e.g., for likely voters). It is difficult or impossible to quantify the errors that may result from these factors. This statement conforms to the principles of disclosure of the National Council on Public Polls.

Savage 1 “Who’s gonna turn down a Junior Mint? It’s chocolate, it’s peppermint ─it’s delicious!” While this may sound like your typical television commercial, you can thank Jerry Seinfeld and his butter fingers for what is actually one of the most renowned lines in television history. As part of a 1993 episode of Seinfeld , subsequently known as “The Junior Mint,” these infamous words have certainly gained a bit more attention than the show’s writers had originally bargained for. In fact, those of you who were annoyed by last year’s focus on a McDonald’s McFlurry on NBC’s 30 Rock may want to take up your beef with Seinfeld’s producers for supposedly showing marketers the way to the future ("Brand Practice: Product Integration Is as Old as Hollywood Itself").

  • Which Seinfeld Character Are You?
    EPISODE 181: THE BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MEETING WHICHWHICH SEINFELDSEINFELD CHARACTERCHARACTER AREARE YOU?YOU? In our business dealings, we are often guilty of just not listening. We come to the table with an agenda—a new product, a new service—and wait while a prospect or existing client tells us what’s going on with his or her business. At some point, that person will pause—and we pounce with our spiel. This approach rarely works - successful business development requires some level of rapport and relationship building. As in all aspects of life, this can mean dealing with those who may not share your views or approach. In order to adapt quickly and improvise in these instances, it’s helpful to understand people’s communication and personality styles. There are a number of tests that can help us understand the personality and communication styles of others, including the popular DISC model. This model has four quadrants: dominance, influence, steadiness, and conscientiousness. Influence and steadiness are on the right side of the brain, and dominance and conscientiousness are on the left side. Understanding someone’s dominant quadrant can help you find a way to work more effectively with them. UNDERSTANDING WHAT SEINFELD YOUR SITCOM CAST Now that you understand where you fall QUADRANT ARE YOU? within the quadrants, you can begin to think about how to work and respond to any cast of characters you may come I’ll let you in on an interesting tidbit, successful sitcoms often across.

  • Kelsey Grammer Asks Seperated Wife to the Tonys
    Kelsey Grammer Asks Seperated Wife to the Tonys According to sources from the New York Post, Kelsey Grammer asked wife Camille Donatacci to accompany him at this year’s Tony Awards – even though he dumped her via telephone a month ago. Donatacci stayed at the London Hotel, and made public appearances with the Frasier star during her stay, but the actor would not let her into his apartment, or discuss any means of reconciliation, said the sources. Donatacci, Grammer’s third wife, filed for divorce in June, citing “irreconcilable differences.” She is seeking custody of their daughter, Mason, 8 and son Jude, 5. How do you face your ex in public? Cupid’s Advice: Breakups can be painful – what happens if you run into your ex while you’re out? Cupid has some tips on maintaining your grace: 1. Expect it: While you shouldn’t be paranoid about seeing your ex, realize that it can happen, especially if you have the same circle of friends, or live in neighboring areas. Acknowledge your feelings after the break-up – you don’t want to lose your cool, especially in public. 2. Talk smart: It’s always good to have a few conversation topics in mind in case you see your ex, so you don’t start rehashing the past. Don’t bring up inside jokes or shared past experiences; your ex might assume you aren’t over your relationship. 3. Go ahead – look good! Be confident in yourself. If you appear happy and upbeat, your former partner will think you’ve moved on (and it won’t look like you’re still wallowing – even if you are).
