Well that's funny because when he defended himself he called himself a Jew. I can only relay what people say. Very strange to say you are of one religion and you really are not. If somebody tells me they are Italian and they are not well I can only believe what they say.

Maybe he is just as strange as his character

**RudyRuetigger** · 12-14-10, 02:54 PM

Mr Costanza is my favorite.

too too too too many great moments in this show that you can't just say 1. there are literally 13,349 great moments.. this thread woudl be 300 pages long if we started a great moment on seinfeld thread.

george and kramer alone probably have 78% of the great moments.. like when kramer was a sit in at the awards show and then was on tv accepting the award.. or when George left his answering machine on so the girl can't break up with him.

believe it or not george isn't at home please leave a message at the beep...lol

or when the girl that doesnt' swing her arms when she walks and she's after elaine and then kramer says...ccccccccccccccc cat fight....

and all this is from the same episode believe it or not. this show is filled with great moments.

SERENITY NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

**Rod1010** · 12-14-10, 03:44 PM

love mr constanza!!!

oh and NO SOUP FOR YOU

**pavyracer** · 12-14-10, 03:47 PM

I think the one where they are in a Limo and are going to pick up that Nazi leader is very funny too.

Also the one where they get the cigar Indian from the store.

**mtneer1212** · 12-14-10, 03:54 PM

My personal favorite is the two parter with Keith Hernandez and the JFK-style footage of 'the second spitter'

**Patrick McIrish** · 12-14-10, 04:39 PM

Bookman from the library was hilarious as well.

**statnerds** · 12-14-10, 04:40 PM

Two best episodes are a toss-up

The marine biologist that ends with "Is that a Titelist?"

and

Jerry walking out of the bathroom "And you want to be my latex salesman"

**Patrick McIrish** · 12-14-10, 04:40 PM

A hole in one?

"Well I got a flash for ya joy-boy: party time is over"

That part is funny just watching Jerry trying not to laugh.

**Nicky Santoro** · 12-14-10, 04:47 PM

This was all in 1 episode here..

remember elaine has 3 new friends and they all resemble jerry, george, and kramer, but they are complete opposites of each other... and then they all meet face to face on the street...and Jerry is set up by elaine with a girl with man hands. all this is from the same episode.

how about when Kramer ended up working for free? he'd dress up in his suit, take the subway to go to work and all for FREE. he was accidentally hired. and then he tells jerry, you know this is my busy time of the year.. then he takes his briefcase to leave and jerry asks him, what do you have in your briefcase, and kramer says.. Crackers..

and it ends like this. classic..lol

Yeah there is a couple of episodes like that, a few with Kramer in them I specifically remember, but yeah in this one Jerry was losing the battle.

**statnerds** · 12-14-10, 04:50 PM

fukk yeah Nicky. one of my favorites as well.

"Just trying to get ahead."

Holy fukk, how perfect is

"But I don't even really work here"

"And that's what makes this so hard"

Comic genius right there.

I think the best one was Kramer with the Cigar Party and his face is brown and teeth discolored....

"look away, I'm hideous"

Jerry is f-ing losing it the whole time.

And now I have to go back to work. Damn-it.

**pattymayo** · 12-14-10, 05:04 PM

forgot about Bookman, that guy was GOLD

"You and your good time buddies"

**smitch124** · 12-14-10, 05:08 PM

The Mr. Bookman scene in Jerry's apartment is my favorite scene all-time on Seinfeld, and that's saying something because there are so many good ones.

**PingPong** · 12-14-10, 05:17 PM

yea it's funny she see's george's shrinkage, tells his gf about it and she immediately drives home lol. must be a size queen

in the next 500 yrs of tv, they still won't be able to top SEINFELD.. it is an amazing and well written show.. it really is a show about nothing and about 4 people living their lives each day in NYC, but man, what characters. that kramer and george are great. we all can related to this show. everything that happens in this show has happened to us in our lives at least once.

Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David are true geniuses. i have watched each show probably 74 times, i swear no joke, maybe even more.. and i still watch each of them again and i laugh just as hard. i even know the dialogue word for word. it never gets old.. what a show..

Its already been topped by Arrested Development

I love having Scott Baio follow up Winkler as the family attorney and Bob Loblaw was one of the best names ever in sitcom history.

They are both excellent.

AD was too fast-paced and didn't have enough dick jokes to keep America's attention. You either think AD is the best ever or Married with Children, which was good for a year or two, but c'mon. it was just a non-stop dick joke that bored me quickly.

Even the dick jokes on AD took some thought to figure out and/or catch.

The one with Ed Begley and the Cabin and Momma Bluth...classic shit.

**statnerds** · 12-14-10, 07:37 PM

This exchange about the Cabin:

Michael: Maybe you could take a date up there.
Lucille: How am I supposed to find someone willing to go in to that musty old clap trap?
Michael: .............
Lucille: .............
Michael: The cabin, yes. That would be difficult, too.

Most casual viewers don't even connect Winkler and Baio. That's one of the great things about this show. So many hidden gems like this throughout the series. You either catch them or you don't

The dick/pussy jokes are there. They usually do it with play on words. Which again, not everyone will always get but they're there. Sort of like these below.

and the one you just mentioned

**statnerds** · 12-15-10, 09:27 AM

That is what I'm saying. They did a few dick jokes, but even those required thought or at least awareness by the viewer to pick up on it.

And I just explained to my wife last week, cause IFC is running AD, about the Winkler/Baio connection and Ron Howard being narrator, which she never picked up on.

**blueghost** · 12-15-10, 10:27 AM

just watched rerun of the LIBRARY COP still laugh at that even after seeing it a great number of times

Exactly, if you like Seinfeld, you have to watch Curb, same creator, same type of humor.

**Grux** · 12-15-10, 11:20 AM

The episode where they can't find their car in the parking garage is classic. Jerry getting trouble for urinating in public.

**Thunder Gulch** · 12-15-10, 11:35 AM

I use some kind of Seinfield lexicon or quote almost everyday, and the company I'm in always gets it. Great, great show.

**Socrates** · 12-15-10, 11:36 AM

Is arrested development really that funny? I've never seen it, and judging from those clips (no fair I know) it didn't seem all that funny.
