Can anyone tell me the types of the main characters on Seinfeld?

George has neurotic tendencies like an ISTJ, but he's not the same as Jerry so I have no idea what he is supposed to be. Could he be a male ISFJ?
Lenore Thompson has typed George as an INTP - interestingly enough.
Question for you, Jen.
Is Opposite George more like an INTP?
Opposite George - when he desides that every gut instinct he's had is wrong so he does the exact opposite of that, and becomes wildly successful.

I don't know the exact types, MBTI style but I would reckon to guess their Keirsey temperments
Jerry --- SJ. He is the most conventional, concerned with the most concrete issues of all three. He has a well developed J function, considering his obsessive orderliness. He is the most stable of all the major characters. Probably an XSTJ
George --- George is an NF. He is extremely emotional and prone to the most bizarre ideas. In fact George is prone to episodes of extreme irrationality, which I can see as an NF trait. (his emotions and his abstract thoughts form a volatile mix, a caricature of many NFs) As an NF, I can see George being the most like myself (while most things George does are not similar to my own actions, I can identify with his cognitive process the best. Type is probably an ENFP or INFP
Elaine --- SP. I don't know how to explain this one as well as the others, but Elaine seems to be interested in concrete issues, but is far more flexible in dealing with things than jerry, who shows a very J like obsession with insignificant details. Elaine does get caught up in some of that, but overall she seems much more "go with the flow" than jerry. ESFP or ISFP
Kramer---an NT. He definetly has what one poster called the "mad scientist" vibe about him, and functions on a plane that few of us can understand. He is almost surely an INTP
Newman --- SP. ISFP?
Puddy--- ISFJ?
