Why the clues pointed to The Soup Nazi

The Show clue was Seinfeld, which premiered on NBC and ran from 1989 to 1998. 10 characters in the game come from that show, so a green Show cell cut the field to them in one guess.

The Debut clue was 1995, the year of The Soup Nazi's first episode, "The Soup Nazi" (Season 7, Episode 6). Any guess who debuted within three years turned the cell amber, a window that holds 35 characters, and the arrow pointed toward 1995 from either side.

The Network clue was NBC, shared by 111 characters, and the Role clue was Recurring: a recurring or guest character who was never main cast, true of 17 characters. Put together with the Gender clue (Male), the five colors left very few names, and he was the one that fit every cell.

The Soup Nazi makes the best soup in New York and enforces a rigid set of rules for anyone who wants some. Larry Thomas played him in a single classic episode and a finale cameo, and the role earned him an Emmy nomination.
