I was in NYC last weekend and I ate at Tom's Restaurant, which Monk's Cafe is based on in Seinfeld. It has that familiar "RESTAURANT" sign every time they cut to the restaurant. The food there was really loving good, and for a good price. I don't think they had a big salad though.

Should have gone to Mendy's.

Is it in the Big Salad where they change coffee shop? And in the end of the episode George is sitting alone at a table eating a meal for like 1 minute? I remember I laughed really hard at that.

The Big Salad is when George buys Elaine the BIG SALAD from Monk's and gets all upset when his girlfriend gives it to Elaine.

George sitting alone is from when Elaine and Susan become friends and George walks in on Jerry, Susan, Elaine, and Kramer all sitting in one booth.

Unless I'm just confusing episodes. I've literally run through seasons one through six over the past week so they're all kind of starting to blur together :q:

You're talking about Reggie's the Bizarro diner. In "The Soup" George dates a waitress at Monk's and it goes bad and so he has to eat alone at Reggie's. The exact same shot was used in "The Pool Guy" when his worlds collide and he has to escape so he goes to Reggie's to eat alone. Reggie's actually appears in episodes besides that, too.

Is that the episode where they leave the diner and Jerry sends George back in to ask her on a date, and George is freaking out because if he gets rejected he has to turn around and leave again after already leaving once?

That's not tough, it's impossible. Do you realize in the entire history of Western civilization no one has successfully accomplished the Roommate Switch? In the Middle Ages, you could get locked up for even suggesting it.

Jerry and George shutting themselves away to work on the Roommate Switch is one of my favorite segment/montages, especially when George leaves in dejection and then bursts back into the apartment in a fit of inspiration.

How does Cheryl Hines just get hotter and hotter? She wouldn't even get a second look from me if she still looked like Season 1 of Curb, but now she's just getting better and better looking (much like Julia Louis Dreyfuss).

They both set the bar very low to start off and work their way up as the show progresses. A lot of slightly older TV women have this syndrome - including the mom from 'Home Improvement' and the one from 'Everybody Loves Raymond'

I've seen way too many goons talking about how the Home Improvement mom is hot. She isn't, and in fact is the exact image in my mind when anybody mentions "mom jeans".

I don't care if you classify her as hot per se, but she ENDED better looking than she started. So if you think that she went from really frumpy to just moderately frumpy, she's still a valid example. I didn't think she was that bad but I'd not call her hot either.

Part of Julia Louis-Dreyfus's problem in the early part of Seinfeld was those awful dresses they had her wearing, and with the longer curlier hair it made her look a little odd. Once they modernized her wardrobe it was a big change -- but of course she's aged incredibly well too, cuz she still looks hot today.

Jerry's wardrobe wasn't a whole lot better, in some of those early episodes where he was wearing a pink undershirt with a bright purple dress shirt over it :gonk:

At least Kramer's retro shirts were timeless.
