I'm slowly making my way through all 9 seasons of Seinfeld for the first time (I've seen the occasional episode here and there. I didn't watch it when I was younger. My dad though is a HUGE fan of it.) I'm so glad I'm able to enjoy these now. "The Contest" was even funnier than I thought it would be, and "The Limo" was one of the most ridiculous things I have ever seen. And the part in "The Nose" job where Kramer just flat out says "Oh you're very beautiful. You just need a nose job." is one of the hardest I've laughed at something on TV. Currently near the end of season 4, about to watch "The Handicap Spot". I still have quite a ways to go.

The ONLY thing about the show I don't like is the stand up bits at the beginning and end. I do not find Jerry's stand up funny at all.

edit: Oh yeah, and the one where Elaine just yells STELLAAAAAAAAAAA killed me

Anybody have a link handy to the interview of the woman who played George's mom from a few years back? She was complaining about how she wasn't asked to be a regular cast member on King of Queens, and she wanted to play the role of Jerry Stillers wife again but he took the job without her.

I'm trying to figure out if she was joking or seriously mad at Jerry Stiller.

If she is mad about that, she can take solace in knowing that she got to take part in the Toy Story franchise and Jerry Stiller didn't.

So I'm still working my way through all the seasons, and I'm at season 8 right now. I just saw the episode "The Bizarro Jerry".

That may be one of my most favorite episodes of the show. I especially liked the dedication of building an entire mirrored version of Jerry's apartment.

I work in a grocery store, and someone bought a big package of black and white cookies, and I immediately thought of Seinfeld.

The Frogger machine was the first thing of Seinfeld I ever saw. Of course I was a kid and didn't appreciate the rest of the show, but I thought it was hilarious how he crossed the street WITH the Frogger cabinet JUST LIKE Frogger.

"Woah, woah, back up. *beep, beep, beep*"

"...beep beep beep? What are you doing?"

This is several pages back in the thread, but I recently got through finally with all the episodes after having only seen one or two episodes on TV. And this is definitely one of my favorite parts in any episode. Especially his look of defeat afterwards. In fact that whole scene is great:

Jerry: YeahIbettergettoadoctorbye. That was close! What drives me to take chances like that?!
George: That was very real!
Jerry: She said there's some tractor story she hasn't told me about.
George: Whoa back it up, back it up BEEP BEEP BEEP. Tractor story?
Jerry: ...Beep beep beep? What are you doing?
Goerge: :smith:

In fact I loved that the entire episode he was coming up with ideas and such as if he were a comedian on stage. Really that's just a great episode in general. George wanting to get out on a high note. Jerry and the "it's me" stuff. Kramer getting gonorrhea. Oh and of course Elaine's part of the story with Puddy is just great. Patrick Warburton's delivery on every line in that episode is just hilarious. "Oh that's BOGUS man!", "Oh whaddyou care, you know where you're going.", etc. And I love Elaine freaking out about her going to hell and she's like "What do you THINK about that?!" and he's just like "It's gonna be rough." :lol:

Also George is by far my favorite character on the show.

edit: hahaha oh yeah and George's responses about christian rock and god. And then just how much he hates "hip musicians".

"I'm against all 'it's me's. So self absorbed and egotistical... Like those hip musicians WITH THEIR COMPLICATED SHOES!"

Me and my friends made alts in WoW each named a Seinfeld character to play together as a group (Seinfeld, Elaine, George, Kramer and Newman, although all of them are misspelled slightly as the names were all obviously taken).

The scenes of Kramer getting his mind blown are the best, like when Jerry points out that he's also thin, late 30s, and single and by Kramer's logic also gay, or when Elaine tells him that he might also have a fax machine in his apartment. "You just blew my mind!"

KRAMER: Well, now what are we gonna do? See? This is why you should get a fax and a Xerox.
JERRY: And a dead bolt.
KRAMER: Are ya sure you don't have one? Because there's a lot of stuff in my apartment I've never seen.
ELAINE: Then maybe you have a fax machine!
KRAMER: You just blew my mind!

It's pretty amazing how many of those I could see as actual Seinfeld episodes.

"Elaine tries to return a parfait because she deems it "too tart"; in a bout of superstition, Kramer goes a week without looking at a mirror." Imagine that Kramer part of the story. it'd be great.

On subject, The Jacket has one of my favorite Seinfeld quotes, "I paid what it costs!" Jerry's delivery makes it.

Bob's Burgers? Yep. There's a thread in this subforum about it. People seemed pretty split on loving it or hating on the first episode, but the first season is now over and everyone is in love with it. Hooray!

You know watching this, did they have people go out and record driving based on the driving the characters did on the show? Because it never felt like they were in front of a green screen because the recorded traffic and surroundings always reacted correctly to Jerry and Co. in their green screen car.

Can someone make a gif from the Soup Nazi episode, where he sniffs his bag of soup, goes "Jambalayaaaaa!" and runs off? The way he runs off camera is so good.

Regarding Michael Richards, watching the outtakes from all the seasons, it seems that the higher the season goes, the less he seems to enjoy when they mess up (especially with Julia can't stop laughing at something).
