The marathon will contain classic Seinfeld episodes such as The Doorman where Frank and Michael Richards' Kramer develop a bra for men and The Strike where Frank brings back his invented holiday known as Festivus.

"Fans can rejoice in reliving these unforgettable and authentic appearances from Stiller, making it a joyous 'Festivus for the rest of us' and for many generations to come," TBS said in a statement.

Stiller appeared in 30 episodes of Seinfeld, and was also known for starring in The King of Queens.
