Read this whole thread and laughed more times than I can count. Seinfeld and Curb are the two greatest comedy shows, bar none.

What most of you who are arguing about whether the eclair was garbage or not are ignoring is the fact that it was in someone else's house. I think whether it is considered garbage or not, it's disgusting and thus a completely acceptable thing for George to do :xd:

I'll look at my favorite parts of episodes and they will almost always feature George. What a character. And it's always something simple that he does that is totally GEORGE and a combination of something hilarious he says paired with something physical. For instance:

* The Big Salad: When George confronts Elaine about thanking his girlfriend, his dance/gesture when mentioning "but you had to have the BIIIIIIG salad!"

* When George is talking about the woman he is dating that turns out to be bald. He mentions her taking off her hat, places his hand on top of his head and waves... "HELLOOOOO!"

* "Now if you will kindly help me unwedge my front wheel, I'll be on my way." - then the expression he has on his face when he beeps the horn.

* When he is talking about that woman's degree (or certificate) on the wall and he says "... now that's my idea of commeedddyyyyyyyy" with a wiggle of his hips.


Oh George.

The little names Kramer and Jerry would call each other were pretty funny. I remember 'big daddy', 'Monjamba', and 'Dr. Cyclops', don't remember if there were any more.

I think Kramer called Newman "Big Daddy"

A special treat today in the form of a couple episodes. The first one was "The Doll" which I completely forgot as being one of my favorites. It's just so perfect the way the doll looks like Estelle and George freaking out about it. I laughed after Jerry's line "...I'm just glad it's outta here!"

The second episode was the pilot and though I have all the seasons, it's been a while since I've seen it (TBS usually airs the shows in order... they showed the finale last night) and I forgot the little parts that helped make the show what it is. Kramer and his tearing of Jerry's magazine. George and his confused look at the airport greeting.

What a brilliant show. From beginning to end.

Just so I don't feel dumb, the joke behind Delores is that it doesn't really sound that much like clitoris, right? :v:

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.

Today's episode had my favorite Newman moment. It was the one where he went to court with Kramer to contest the speeding ticket. His slow turn into LUNATIC NEWMAN is hilarious. I love :38

So did TBS stop playing Seinfeld episodes? They used to play two back to back starting at 5pm my time (MST) and for the past two days it has been King of Queens instead.... WHY

No kidding. And not only that but a local station used to show an episode at the same time so I was able to choose which one I wanted to watch. They have now replaced it with Two and a Half Men :mad:

Meaning, I don't think there is any Seinfeld on TV here anymore. It's nice to have all the episodes on DVD but I love coming home from work and turning on a random nugget.

I love Seinfeld and still watch it to this day. But I have not seen the return in Curb yet, how was it overall?

Fantastic. I just plowed through the season again this weekend and I keep picking up on subtleties that refer to Seinfeld episodes. The DVD has some great extra features including a featurette about recreating the sets after having them in storage for 10 years. Watching Larry and Jerry's reactions to seeing them is great. It's a perfect way to wrap it all up without overdoing it.
