Lenny

Does anyone else think Lenny is adorable?? Wes Stern was really cute and
he had great chemistry with Julie Kavner. Wish they used him in more
than six episodes. Lenny's foot/shoe fetish is hilarious! Also love when
he runs out of the room when someone comes in.

Stern's best episode is also one of the series' best, in my opinon:
"It's Not My Fault, Is It?" Poor Lenny hides in his room when Brenda
turns down his proposal. Then Rhoda, Joe and Brenda show up to help
him - only to be greeted by his mom (the great Eileen Heckert). Love
the bronzed (adult!) shoes and the framed picture of Tom McCann in his
bedroom!!

He was a cutie. I'm glad he wasn't a permanent fixture in Brenda's life because it was nice to see Brenda grow and have more men show an interest in her. I do agree that it would have been nice to see him in more episodes.

See I would've preferred seeing Brenda warm up to Lenny, as they would've
made a really cute couple. And the other men Brenda went out with
weren't nearly as cute (including Lobo (is it?) and Benny. Yuck!
