UKRAINE IS GAME TO YOU?!

I can't deny the awesomeness of "The Bet" episode, but my personal favorite is the one with the chick Jerry was dating that had Man Hands....

This episode is so awesome because it ALSO has the other story line about the Bizarro world, where Elaine meets a group of 3 guys similar to Jerry, George, and Kramer but they are totally opposite....

AND... in the same episode, George uses the attractive photo of Man-hands to lie to some models, saying it's his dead fiancee so he can get into their exclusive private parties. All of that wrapped into one show.

simple... although about totally different subject matter, the same tired sitcom theme is there: dorky loser guys who, by some stroke of incredible good luck, find themselves in the company of overly attractive female(s) who in real life, would never in a billion years give such losers the time of day. Kinda makes you wonder what kind of guys the writers of all these sitcoms are like. I bet I can guess!

I liked it when I was a lot younger, but I have actually started to not like it as much.

Curb Your Enthusiasm is much better... why have Jerry Seinfeld rehash Larry David when you can watch Larry David.

To me, it's always been funny, but I think you develop a greater appreciation for its comedic allusions to the nuances of life and interpersonal relationships as you further experience them with age; which is more or less the same case when it comes to Seinfeld's stand-up acts.

Well said.

I love when she brushes his face

One of my favorite episodes is when George decides he doesn't want to go back to work and starts The Summer of George. And who can deny the classic Vandalay Industries? Truly a great show.

I do actually love the show, but it has never made me laugh. After ever show i get this weird urge to cut off my balls. Obviously I put the scissors down after I realise what I am doing, but the point is that conan probably never owned a pair of scissors in his career.

I think my favorite aspect of the typical Seinfeld episode is the interconnected web of events that ultimately builds the episode, which is simply more pleasing to watch than in most sitcoms.

Take 'The Pothole' as an example.

Kramer decides to adopt a highway after running over an abandoned sewing machine, and brings the sewing machine back to the apartment to demonstrate his point.

Elaine has to pretend to be living in the janitor's closet of an apartment complex because the Chinese restaurant she likes to order from won't deliver to her side of the street.

Kramer decides to create a 'luxury lane' on his particular stretch of highway by using paint to collapse two lanes into one, providing lots of extra room on either side of the lane.

Elaine gets spotted by the superintendent of the building she's hiding in, and mistakes her for the Janitor. She orders Elaine to haul a bunch of trash from the basement to the dump, and Elaine just goes along with it. Elaine borrows Jerry's car to take the dump. On her way to the dump, she passes through Kramer's 'luxury lane,' and swerves a little bit because she's loving all the extra room; the sewing machine falls out of the pile of junk that was in the Jerry's trunk.

It turns out that Kramer's idea wound up creating a horrible back up on the freeway the next morning, so he goes back at night with paint thinner in order to fix it. He spills the paint thinner all over the freeway.

Newman comes driving in his mail truck, hits the sewing machine, which ignites the paint thinner, which engulfs his truck.

...and, just like all other Seinfeld episodes, this sequence of events relies upon another sequence events in order for them to happen in the first place.

That's why I love Seinfeld.

I think we should all celebrate Jon Voight Day!

I've noticed that nine people out of ten who don't like Seinfeld usually lack a sense of humour. Coincidence?

Another favourite moment is when that chicken place (Kenny's, is it?) opens up across the street and Kramer and Jerry switch apartments...LOL
