'Seinfeld' Actor Jerry Stiller Visits Real Residents of the Costanza Home, Everyone Feels Warm, Fuzzy

Better brace yourselves, Seinfeld fans, because this is awesome.

The New York Daily News made the journey to Astoria with Jerry Stiller, the actor who played George Costanza's cantankerous father Frank, to pay an unannounced visit to the home they used on the show.

The couple that actually lives there are two terrific 84-year-olds who actually seem like they could be friends of Frank's, albeit way less cranky.

It's a great moment when they open the door in their pajamas and exclaim, "It's Costanza's father, I can't believe it!" Watching them hug and hang out together sort of feels like having Thanksgiving with the extended family; it'll make you want to call your aunt and say "How do you do?"

I loved this. It was very touching and totally real. I guess I thought Jerry Stiller had probably been hardened by a life in show business and was therfore a rather cynical person, but I was wrong. He was very real and very warm. I'm glad I watched this.

God bless the Lopiero's too.

When you see Jerry, it's easy to see where Ben got his comic timing from. Must have been fun growing up with Jerry for a Dad, he's just old school funny and doesn't rely on anything but his comic timing and delivery of lines to get him laughs!

I'm glad to know that some people stay real and are a credit to living within the lines of what life is, reaching out the hand of friendship.

What a pleasant video! I enjoyed that so much. I'm still smiling. I was always a big fan of Stiller and his wife. I rather watch this type of video on AOL than the sad and tragic stuff. The couple that he visited were really nice people. I could hang out with them for hours.

Jerry Stiller remains the funniest man on the universe. It's good to see that he is also one of the nicest -- a real gentleman. Great moment Jerry. Thanks

So warm and genuine! Fells like everyone's neighbors got together - funny how a thoroughly likeable man can play such thoroughly unlikeable characters! I just loved this! Not a shred of ego in the clip! Just marvelous!

Stiller was so funny as Frank Costanza, he should have won an Emmy. Glad to see he isn't too "big" to do something like this.

Jerry Stiller is 100% class, and the folks in the house look like a couple of really sweet people. They have my dining room chairs. I love Anne Meara and Ben Stiller too. What a great video!

Jerry Stiller is funny as hell, and he's still got "it". If he's not working, then shame on L.A. and New York for passing up the opportunity to put him in their shows. This man's talent should be on tv everyday as long as he chooses to work.
