Also, the woman playing Cynthia? A pre-Janice-from- Friends Maggie Wheeler, using her real voice. Answers: Probably not; definitely.
And what happened to the briefcase with the secret recording device that George left in the room to find out? The answer to the second question is complicated. The answer to the first is obvious. In which Puddy reveals himself to be the most fervent Devils fan possible, as captured by TV cameras. George always wanted to name a child Seven.
They probably both love Seinfeld. The montage of George pretending to be handicapped at Play Now! Plus: an early glimpse of Kramer-as- kavorka , as he romances a young librarian and nearly destroys her career.
Eat it up, Georgie boy! Another is George showing off the glasses that gave the episode its name. Moral of the story: Never hire a drunk rabbi to perform a bris. Children cursing: always funny! Well-intended, but ultimately, another ill-advised attempt to be a good person. Also: the first appearance of Jackie Chiles! The gag of eating candy with a knife and fork — how it spreads, where it starts, how far it goes — is the kind of absurdism that makes the show so distinct.
Any time you feel uneasy about attending an office party, remember Elaine. George switches the Yankee uniforms from polyester to cotton, and it goes horribly — yet Jerry has no sympathy. Kruger is his most hilarious onscreen boss. This episode gives us our first taste of Kruger — and boy, is it delicious, a classic George-focused story of self-sabotage where, in Kruger, he finally meets his dimwitted match.
Was it any surprise that George would pay for a shitty car just because he thinks it was once owned by Jon excuse me, John Voight? Some essential tenets of Seinfeld : Jerry is never romantically satisfied, and neither is Elaine — and even when George is in a place of romantic bliss, his need to be liked by everyone sabotages his own happiness.
For one episode, Jerry, Elaine, and George have the exact same job: volunteer work caring for the elderly. But Elaine is the only one who takes it seriously — and she acquires some game-changing wisdom in the process — while Jerry exploits his elderly charge and George, outstandingly, gets fired. From a volunteer job. Actually, maybe this is the worst thing Jerry does during the course of Seinfeld.
A brilliantly constructed episode in which George is the victim of a series of misfortunes, then seems to get the satisfying revenge he seeks — before getting a tomato slammed in his face. You can eat them like an apple! Annnnnnd , this might be the worst thing George does in the entire nine seasons of the show. The police officer asking him how, exactly, he lives with himself is a proxy for all of us. What if doing the exact opposite of what you would typically do in a given situation could improve your life?
Also, the Kramer-meets—Regis and Kathie Lee scene is truly inspired. What keeps this from being No. The episode might not rank very high despite the cavalcade of returning guest stars, but with all things considered, I'd call it one of the better and more poignant finales in television history. Now we're back to the upswing of Seinfeld , but things are getting better by year three.
This is where episodes start to dig more into socially taboo issues while also referencing popular culture in clever ways. Season 3 is when Seinfeld started to push the boundaries of sexual identities and promiscuity while not shying away from things like suicide, the JFK assassination, and even Neo-Nazis. Another quirky bit of Season 3 is how often they branch out to unusual areas of the city.
Two episodes come to mind: "The Parking Garage", in which the foursome wander around a parking structure for the entire episode, and "The Subway", in which each of them encounters their own particular public transportation adventure. This is also the first time we see the characters beginning to embark on storylines that continue beyond the end of the half-hour episode, starting with Kramer taking off for California in the Season 3 finale. Season 6 is about as middle-of-the-road as you can get for Seinfeld.
It comes off of the great success of the show's fourth and fifth seasons, but the quality takes a dip. Jerry's sense of self blows up a bit in this year since his character dates a Miss America contestant, an Olympic gymnast, and Bette Midler's understudy. The gang also takes trips to both the NHL Playoffs and the SuperBowl, taking them further away from the Everyman and more towards the celebrity status they're enjoying in their own lives and doing fancy things like eating a Snickers with a knife and fork.
So while Season 6 features such memorable moments as the Big Salad, Assman, and the reveal of Kramer's first name, it's more of an assembly of funny moments rather than a coherent comedic thruline from beginning to end.
There's plenty more family drama with not only Jerry's relatives but George's parents as well; their separation makes for some good comedy throughout the next few seasons. It's the season in which George buys Jo h n Voight's car and which celebrates the series' th episode It's good, just not Seinfeld at its best. Season 8 might be better known for its drama outside of the show than for its storylines. As far as the major plots go, the gang - specifically George - deals with the aftermath of Susan's death at the end of the previous season.
In the real world, series co-creator Larry David had actually departed the production and writing team prior to the season's start, leaving creative control largely to Seinfeld himself. This season has a noticeable uptick in absurd and surreal subject matter, but the different tone didn't prevent Seinfeld from staying atop the ratings all season long. During its run, Seinfeld was apparently so busy writing material for the show that he didn't have time to come up with the in-show stand-up routines, which explains why they're absent from this season.
Louis-Dreyfus was also pregnant in the second half of the season so, if you pay attention, Elaine noticeably hides her belly behind set dressings. Some great moments from Season 8 include Jerry's continuing attempts to reference Superman, Elaine's terrible dancing skills, cockfights, adventures with J. Peterman, and, of course, the Summer of George. Even though season two started out with poor ratings, bringing the season to a two-month hiatus, the rest of the season was positively received by critics and was nominated for three Primetime Emmy Awards.
In addition to every episode from the two seasons, the DVD release features bonus material, including deleted scenes, inside looks, bloopers, and commentaries. TV Guide ranked it as the sixth-greatest TV season ever made. Originally called The Seinfeld Chronicles, the series' name was shortened to Seinfeld to avoid confusion with another sitcom called The Marshall Chronicles.
The season finale aired on June 21, In addition to every episode from the two seasons, the DVD release features bonus material, including deleted scenes, animatics, exclusive stand-up material, and commentaries. With only four episodes after the pilot, season one of "Seinfeld" is one of the smallest sitcom orders in television history. Episode Ninja the best episodes of any tv show. Search for a show.
