I bought the series boxset and just recently finished watching the whole shebang. I'd only seen about half the episodes before, so it was glorious.

My favorite three episodes are The Dealership, The Big Salad, and The Pool Guy.

Now if, in fact, this mechanic was eating a Fifth Avenue bar as he claims, wouldn't you agree he would have no problem picking one out from a candy lineup?

I spent the last hour preparing ten candy bars with no wrappers or identification of any kind for him to select from. Only I hold the answer key to their true candy identities. And so, without further ado, I give you... the candy lineup.

This is why I always sit in the exit row on planes. So that in an emergency, the Costanza inside me does not reveal itself.

Seinfeld is one show that it is absolutely impossible for me to name my favorite episodes from. I can tell you episodes that weren't quite as good as others, but it's just to hard to pick favorites.

My favorite episode is The Race. Kramer as Santa, Mickey as an elf, Elaine dating the commie, Jerry dating Lois and the Superman theme throughout with the perfect climax...

Every quote from Kramer about communism is hilarious.

quote:

KID: I want a racing car set.

KRAMER: Ho ho ho ho A racing car set! Those are assembled in Tai Wan by kids like you. And these Coleman pigs, they sell it at triple the cost.

KID: But I want a racing car set.

KRAMER: You see kid, you're being bamboozaled. These capatalist fat cats are inflating the profit margin and reducing your total number of toys.

KID: Hey, this guy's a commie!

quote:

KRAMER: Each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.

MICKEY: What does that mean?

KRAMER: Well, if you've got needs and abilities that's a pretty good combination.

MICKEY: So what if I want to open up a delicatessen?

KRAMER: There are no delicatessens under Communism.

MICKEY: Why not?

KRAMER: Well, because the meats are divided into a class system. You got Pastrami and Corned Beef in one class and Salami and Bologna in another. That's not right.

MICKEY: So you can't get Corned Beef?

KRAMER: Well, you know, if you're in the Politburo, maybe.

I'm pretty sure Twix is the only candy bar with cookie as a major ingredient. Most others use nuts or wafer for their crunch.

To this day, it still confuses me as to why George didn't eat one of the Twixes he had gathered while putting together that entire setup. It makes no sense.

But the whole thing with that Twix being so special was that it was George's last bit of change, wasn't it? I remember him bugging Jerry for a buck that ended up not working, and crawling on the floor looking for dropped change.

Not trolling honest, but I always thought The Dealership was one of the worst episodes, beside's Kramer's story the whole thing is pretty thin on laughs imo.

For me it's all about The Pen, The Sniffing Accountant or The Boyfriend.

Speaking of The Boyfriend, did anyone watch that Mets game last year where they got Jerry in the booth for a little while? They kept trying to talk to him about the show and all Jerry wanted to do was commentary on the game that was going on.

I'm on the east coast, and they used to play two at 7 and 7:30 but now it's just one episode at 6. I'm disappointed as well.

I was playing Harvest Moon 64 with this kid who lived on my street and my cows were not doing well and I got so raged up and frustrated that my eyes welled up with tears and my friend was like are you crying dude. Are you crying because of the cows. I didn't understand the feeding mechanic.
Which episode is it when some woman breaks up with Jerry and says, "You're not a real man," to which he replies, "Oh yeah? Then what is that sports coat doing in my closet?" - or something to that effect.
