Storyline
Kramer convinces Jerry to get a free Armani suit from hack comic Kenny Bania. But when Bania decides that he doesn't want anything except for dinner, Jerry has a hard time accepting the suit knowing that there is a far greater catch involved. Things get even worse when, during the dinner, Bania insists that soup doesn't count as a meal. Meanwhile, Elaine has a British friend stay with her for a week. Written by Anonymous

Season 6, Episode 7, "The Soup"
"The Soup" is a good episode, consistent with the general quality of season 6, though not one of the best. The main thing that makes the episode memorable is that it marks the first appearance of Steve Hytner as terrible comedian Kenny Bania, who is the culmination of several bad comedian characters who appeared throughout the show's run and would be the one to remain as Jerry's main antagonist within the business (discounting Newman of course) for the remaining season.
Everything else in the episode is funny but pretty standard. British actor Daniel Gerroll is good as Elaine's boyfriend-of-the-week but his character doesn't make much sense; and Kramer doesn't have a lot going for him in the episode at all. Good filler episode.
