Knight described him as "pure evil?" I don't care what your source is, that's from the show itself. Jerry describes him as pure evil. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.72.195.242 ( talk) 15:30, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
"Since he is weasel-like, he tends to perform some annoying pranks like releasing fleas into the apartment complex, and assist other people to get back at Jerry (such as Jerry's barber)."
It's been a while, but I don't recall this as a prank...I think he had fleas, and was in Jerry's apartment for some reason, so the fleas spread there...it seems strange to think he would have deliberately released the fleas into the apartment complex since he was itching like crazy from them.

Is Newman's first name Craig or Paul? The introduction states that his first name is never mentioned, but was going to be Paul. The History section then starts with "Newman's first name is Craig." I am a somewhat avid fan of Seinfeld and have never seen any episodes in which Newman is referred to as Craig. blues_shuffle 23:41, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
Just my looking at it now;

I get it, he's like a weasel. (Where did that adjective come from is it in the show?)
First paragraph;
Bottom paragraph;
No explanation nor link for reader to establish who this random Mr Pitt is (I know, but I've seen every ep as most editors have no doubt)
Anyway, I know I could have started correcting all this in the time I've written it (that was stupid) but I did want to establish to all why I may have to hack the article to pieces! Thoughts? - Gl e n T C (Stollery) 07:48, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
Wasn't Newman's first name Norman?

Exactly how is Newman a villain? He doesn't seem different from anyone else. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.244.187.117 ( talk) 14:49, August 22, 2007 (UTC)
Newman also appeared in Season 7 Episode 16 - The Shower Head. Should be between The Seven and The Calzone.
I believe Ruth Cohen, playing the part of Ruthie Cohen -- the cashier at Monk's Cafe, appeared in more than twice that many episodes. She makes her first appearance in the role in Season 4, Episode 1 (The Trip, Part 1). She has her first speaking role in Season 7, Episode 10 (The Gum) -- where is just credited for the first time as Cashier, although in dialogue in the show, Jerry reveals her name as Ruthie Cohen. In that episode whe has several lines and is the only time she is seen outside of Monk's Cafe. She is credited in Season 8, Episode 1 (The Foundation) -- where she speaks two words and is credited as playing "Ruthie". She says one word in Season 9, Episode 5 (The Junk Mail)-- but is not credited.
Starting with season 4, she can be seen in almost every scene that takes place in Monk's Cafe. By some accounts, she was seen in 87 episodes, which would mean she appeared in twice the number of episodes that Newman was seen in. —Preceding unsigned comment added by AntIsNowHere ( talk • contribs) 23:22, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
Given that Elaine’s article lists the 2016 SNL show as her last appearence, then Newman’s should be not the actual show’s Finalle II episode but the 2020 bit in Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, with Jerry and George. Tuvalkin ( talk) 03:42, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
I am referring to a quote towards the beginning of the section on Newman's job as a postal worker. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.188.85.132 ( talk) 10:40, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
Newman's occupation is first revealed in The Old Man, where George, upon learning it, asks "Aren't [postal workers] the guys that always go crazy and come back with a gun and shoot everybody?" Newman's ominous reply is "Sometimes..."
This was one of my favourite rants by Newman. I am absolutely sure that Jerry then asks why and Newman rants something along the lines of:
"its because the mail never stops.It just keeps coming and coming and coming there's never a let up, it's relentless. Every day it piles up more and more and more and you gotta get it out but the more you get it out the more it keeps coming in! And then the bar code reader breaks! And then it's Publisher's Clearinghouse Day...!
Followed by Jerry "Alright! Alright! Alright!"
Anyone who finds a good reference for this to add it to the actual page please update this, I would love to see this where it belongs. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.188.85.132 ( talk) 10:38, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
Might be worth mentioning that in the episode "The Revenge", when the Newman character is introduced, he is introduced as unemployed; whereas for the rest of the show his character is a postal carrier who has worked at the Post Office for a long time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.77.96.242 ( talk) 06:47, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
