The only heartfelt ending I can remember was at the end of "The Trip II." Kramer says he staying in L.A. and it's a bummer but then at the end he walks into Jerry's apartment and Jerry lights up because he's so happy to have him back.

Aren't there supposed to be 200 odd episodes of this show? I watched it a lot when it was in syndication on Fox in the late 90s, and it seemed like I only ever caught the same forty or so episodes, obviously all the famous poo poo like Soup Nazi and Bubble Boy and the contest, but am I wrong in thinking there's like a trove that got less exposure (possibly by virtue of being not as good)?

Basilson posted:Apologies if this was mentioned before, but does anyone else find it hilarious how Elaine tries to get out of awkward conversations by shouting "WHAT!?.. Oh... Coming!" As if someone is calling for her from another room? I love it how she knows that it's so obviously fake but continues to go along with it anyway and leaves the room... From memory she's done it at least twice in the series. Also, I wouldn't be surprised in the least if someone here has tried it to get out of something. Haha this was in the episode today when she was herself and "Susie" at her work. Peterman invited them both to dinner and she pulled that stunt and ran out of his office.

I don't know man, but I checked the internet and found a site with a list of Seinfeld episodes in about ten seconds, as luck would have it! Turns out there were about 200 odd episodes of this show.

As a diehard fan of the show I never really thought that "classic" episodes such as The Contest or The Soup Nazi were necessarily better or funnier than episodes that fly under that radar, such as The Beard or The Chinese Woman. Just that they had far more memorable subject matter. Looking at it from the perspective of a casual viewer or someone unfamiliar with the show, I'd say that Seinfeld is a slow and gradual incline in quality over its entire run. You won't be able to tell from one episode to the next, per se, but there's an obvious difference between S1 and S5, and an obvious difference between S5 and S9. Nothing stands out as offensively bad (depending on who you talk to), and even "mediocre" episodes have some aspect about them considered classic and fondly remembered. Again, as a diehard fan, it's all Seinfeld, man

If it is password-locked for you, here is the meat: NY Times posted:ON a recent August night, young women in stilettos teetered precariously through the cobblestone streets of the meatpacking district in Manhattan. Appropriately for the neighborhood, they were squeezed into minidresses that were as snug as sausage casings. But a few blocks south, far away from the blare of Hummer limousine horns, at the fashionable opening of the Algus Greenspon Gallery on Morton Street, a more demure look prevailed.

So I've spent summer break catching up on Seinfeld because I'd never seen it before and it astounds me that something so funny and mean-spirited managed to achieve such widespread mainstream success and acclaim. It's good to see something be popular without pandering to the lowest common denominator.  When I was a kid I wasn't allowed to watch Seinfeld because my mom thought it was too sexual, I only saw a few episodes with my dad when she was out (soup nazi, jerk store, the one where Kramer adopted a highway) and they were all so great I remembered them vividly to this day. The day after the Seinfeld finale I remember my teacher spending the day talking about the finale in class, it was so weird. To be honest I found the first two seasons to be boring and almost unwatchable, but I skipped ahead and from season 3 onwards it was awesome. Even the last two seasons without Larry David I loved. So yeah, back to parroting lines and references, just wanted to say that this show owns and has stood the test of time. Although 90% of the show's conflicts could be solved in about 5 minutes if they had cell phones back then.

I mean they did get away with a lot as far as sex goes for a 90's sitcom. There are multiple cunnilingus references throughout the series which just seems really heavy to me for some reason. Plus, off the top of my head, masturbation contest (involving a female contestant), "I've got hand" -- "And you're gonna need it to jerk off with", Elaine propositioning Jerry just to "clear her head" and then considering Kramer when Jerry refuses.. which now that I mention it is a really funny scene. "Spongeworthy".. the list goes on.
