Holy crap, I'm rewatching the parking lot and I'm thinking it is the most perfect Seinfeld episode

That's probably my favorite episode.

I don't even know L. Ron Hubbard!

In no universe is there a better pairing than those two as George's parents.

We have the best timeline, in that respect.

Seriously. I just only recently saw the episode cut with the original actor for George's dad and it wasn't good.

There's some good moments in season 1 and 2 but the show doesn't get truly amazing until 3+.

I liked The Pen for that reason and wish they went with that formula more with George and/or Kramer only episodes.

It's really a shame Michael Richards torpedoed his own career. He was/is possibly the greatest physical comedian alive, aside from maybe Rowan Atkinson.

At least it made for some amazing comedy on CYE.

I want another fake Seinfeld reunion.:smith:

It's such a perfect encapsulation of George/Larry David. He got the idea from some inconsequential source, like he saw a truck backing up and thought "Yeah I could use that" without giving it a second thought because he doesn't have much regard for other peoples' opinions until they're in his face. Then he thinks "Alright let's bust this out" days later and Jerry's immediate rejection is something he never considered possible and it ruins him. Like Bania's reaction after Jerry simply asks him why he should lift weights. We all do this to some extent, get some weird idea burrowed into our heads and don't have enough empathy to consider that others might find it alien or offensive. Also it's really funny.

I also like that exchange since that line is something that any hack sitcom character would say but Jerry responds to it like a normal person.

Jerry has been openly musing about bringing Seinfeld back since it seems like every other 90s sitcom is coming back. I think it could work, the fake reunion episode is Curb was hilarious.

Off topic but anyone seen the newest series of Comedians in Cars? John Mulaney is on and his episode is like watching a dad hang out with his son...

This show really sucks. Jerry Seinfeld is poo poo without Larry David.

I mean to be fair some people just don't like that genre of comedy

I’ve met more than one person that said to me that Seinfeld is “too Jewish”. I’m Jewish too so it didn’t turn out well.:crossarms:

How defeated George looks when Jerry calls out his lame sitcom line is one of the best and most meta moments of the show.

I went through the entire show again this year and was happy to report that it’s still the best sitcom.

I just say show them The Contest then if they want more than just an entire rewatch. Season 1 is a little rough but it’s doesn’t take long to get good.
