Amanda Peet Seinfeld
She was Lanette on Seinfeld, and she only appeared in “The Summer of George.” Lanette is a character in “The Summer of George” who Jerry dates. He intended to accompany her to the Tonys, but when he got at her flat, he discovered another guy, a “dude,” and their relationship is unknown, much to Jerry’s chagrin. Lanette eventually decides to drop the “dude” and only dates Jerry. Jerry, on the other hand, quickly feels exhausted by her hectic lifestyle.
As a result, George decides to become Jerry’s “dating assistant”; one of George’s first responsibilities is to buy invites for Lanette, but he is unable to deliver them (he was busy playing “frolf” and later slipped on one invitation, causing him to be hospitalized). George’s blunder most likely resulted in Lanette and Jerry’s split. Amanda Peet portrayed Lanette.
