I guess I just love the bottle episodes, and the fact it was done in real time! biggrin.gif

It also has this classic Jerry and George scene...

Classic George! laugh.gif

I do like The Chinese Restaurant, but it's a bit slow at times. No Kramer either. sad.gif

Kramer didn't seem to be in it as much as the others in the earlier seasons, he certainly didn't socialise with them at the beginning. Of course, he's virtually everywhere in the later seasons. biggrin.gif laugh.gif

You could tell in the first couple of seasons that the writers weren't sure what to do with Kramer, he was always the outsider of the group. I think it took the writers a couple of years to develop the character, it definitely took longer than the others. In the earlier seasons he's less crazy and doesn't do his famous "entrance".

This video shows all his entrances...



SO MUCH SLIDING. biggrin.gif

These are my favourite seasons in order:

1. Season 5
2. Season 4
3. Season 7
4. Season 6
5. Season 3
6. Season 8
7. Season 9
8. Season 2
9. Season 1

And my favourite main characters are:

1. Kramer
2. George
3. Elaine
4. Jerry

I love all the main characters, and whilst season 1 is the weakest one, it still isn't too bad as first seasons go. happy.gif

1. Season 7 - I love the George/Susan arc, just so many brilliant episodes. wub.gif Spongeworthy. NO SOUP FOR YOU!!!
2. Season 5 - So many classic moments. Is anyone here a marine biologist? I WAS IN THE POOL! Do women know about shrinkage? biggrin.gif
3. Season 4 - The Jerry pilot story arc is great. But are you still master of your domain? I'M OUT! Not that there's anything wrong with that.
4. Season 8 - So many great episodes. Little kicks, bizarro Jerry and yada yada yada...
5. Season 3 - The first time we see Newman, a fantastic season overall. I think it moved. THESE PRETZELS ARE MAKING ME THIRSTY!!!
6. Season 6 - A very consistently strong season, but it doesn't seem to have as many strong/memorable episodes as S4, S5 and S7. It doesn't have as many catchphrases either.
7. Season 9 - This is still a very good season, and it's probably better than 90% of other sitcoms, but it's just "above average" by Seinfeld's standards. Festivus. SERENITY NOW!
8. Season 2 - A decent season. An improvement on the first season.
9. Season 1 - It's alright I suppose. Nothing special though, let's be honest.

1. George - Absolutely brilliant. Simply the greatest sitcom character of all time. wub.gif
2. Kramer - A fantastic physical comedian. Genius. biggrin.gif
3. Elaine - By far the best female sitcom character ever. Love her to bits. heart.gif
4. Jerry - I really like his stand up more often than not. Maybe the most sane character in the series. tongue.gif

Newman is the best recurring character, although Frank and many others are brilliant too. biggrin.gif

Not only did Seinfeld have great main characters, the recurring characters and guest stars were brilliant as well. Such a great sitcom. wub.gif

I can’t rank the seasons off the top of my head, but I generally enjoy the middle few rather than the first or last tongue.gif

Elaine is fully my favourite character, helped in part because Julia is an amazing actress and I adore her in everything she does (Veep especially wub.gif). George is probably a close second though. Kramer has some great moments but some of his gags got a bit old eventually, same for Jerry.

I think I can safely say that Seinfeld is my favorite sitcom ever. I have seen the Friends episodes a lot more than Seinfeld but Seinfeld is just so cleverly written and less predictable.

Seinfeld was All about the writing and plot, that's why it holds up so well. Frasier was similar in that regard as well. The likes of Friends and Will & Grace relied more heavily on character development and massive guest stars than the writing and subplots. That's why neither are anywhere near as good as Seinfeld or Frasier.

Omg he was already super annoyed before she even asked him anything. It's a good thing that he brought the CEO with him to speak for him lol.

I wonder why he returned for ''The Finale'' if he hated it all so much.

He really lives up to the Seinfeld nickname. Love how she ends it with ''I guess no soup for me''.

I'm not sure what you mean by this? unsure.gif

Al Yeganeh (the real Soup Nazi) didn't appear in The Soup Nazi or The Finale. Yev Kessem (based on Al Yeganeh) was portrayed by Larry Thomas.

I thought MJL was a great poster, where did he go? kink.gif

I know a certain poster, I won't mention his name (Dexton) thought Seinfeld the "show about nothing" ran out of ideas towards the end, and I completely disagree with him.

These episodes from S8 and S9 were very creative and unique...

Season 8:

The Bizarro Jerry - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bizarro_Jerry
The Little Kicks - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Little_Kicks
The Chicken Roaster - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Chicken_Roaster
The Abstinence - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Abstinence
The Pothole - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Pothole
The Yada Yada - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Yada_Yada
The Muffin Tops - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Muffin_Tops
The Summer Of George - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Summer_of_George

Season 9:

The Butter Shave - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Butter_Shave
The Voice - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Voice_(Seinfeld)
The Serenity Now - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Serenity_Now
The Merv Griffin Show - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Merv_Grif...Show_(Seinfeld)
The Betrayal - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Betrayal - this "backwards" episode was very creative and unique biggrin.gif
The Strike - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Strike_(Seinfeld)
The Reverse Peephole - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Reverse_Peephole
The Frogger - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Frogger

There's probably more but I think I've made my point tongue.gif

Jackie Chiles is brilliant. laugh.gif This is the best part...

Jackie: Miss Wilkie, your tobacco company has turned this beautiful specimen, into a horrible twisted freak.
Kramer: Who could love me?
Wilkie: I disagree. In fact, I feel Mr. Kramer projects a rugged masculinity.
Jackie: Rugged? The man's a goblin. He's only been exposed to smoke for four days. By the time this case gets to trial, he'll be nothing more than a shrunken head.
Wilkie: All right, Mr. Chiles. You'll have our offer by tomorrow. Good day, gentlemen. (She exits)
Kramer: Bye-bye. Jackie, you did it. We're rich.
Jackie: You better believe it. Jackie's cashin' in on your wretched disfigurement.

This is how you write a sitcom! wub.gif
