He returned as Bookman for the 1998 Seinfeld finale, his only other appearance on the show.
Hall also played Larry David’s ultraserious Dr. Morrison in a pair of Curb Your Enthusiasm episodes. In the Season 4 episode “Mel’s Offer,” David sees his physician about a cut on his head. When Morrison walks in as David is using the phone in the exam room, things immediately go sideways.
