* SmallRoleBigImpact: Babu Bhatt had only appeared in two episodes of ''Seinfeld'' before being brought back for [[Recap/SeinfeldS9E23TheFinale the series finale]]. While filming the episode, Creator/JerrySeinfeld told George, "You're the man". George said in an interview that he did not know what Seinfeld meant at the time but later realized that Babu's speech in the courtroom helped put the final nail in the coffin in terms of sending Jerry and the gang to prison.

* PlaysGreatEthnics: He is of Lebanese descent on his father's side and Indian descent on his mother's side and tends to play characters from India, Pakistan or the Middle East. In a sketch about ethnic stereotypes from the comedy show ''Series/{{Bizarre}}'', he played an Italian. However, his voice acting roles tend to be more focused on his British accent. Ironically, George spent his adolescence and young adulthood in Canada (his earliest credits are all in Canadian productions, including ''WesternAnimation/{{MASK}}'') and this allowed him to take over the role of the (British) character Bob on ''WesternAnimation/BobAndMargaret'' (a Canadian co-production) when it required that at least one of the leads be Canadian.
