Hope the rest of the episodes are longer, this is exactly what I want in a tv show only it's 10 minutes of those two old assholes talking instead of half an hour.

Yeah, it was brilliant and I could watch a full series of just the two of them shooting the poo poo, but 10 minutes was barely a taste.

I absolutely lost it at the bit about chickens "on the range".

The cigar/cigarette thing was so good too. You don't enjoy a cigarette, but you do enjoy a cigar. A cigar is more of an indulgence and by definition it means you're in a relaxed state and have time on your hands, thus are more willing and able to give sage advice.

It's probably just because the dog barking is just so awful. Could they just not get stock dog barking sound effects and instead had to rely on someone barking into those plastic toy microphones with the springs in them?

Jerry asking how the hell they ever got any work done when they spent all day talking about stuff like this was great too.

I wonder if Kramer convinced Darren to take the fall, or if Darren volunteered out of his love for Kramerica Industries.

The first episode of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee is now available. Posting this here because the first "guest" is Larry David, and this is literally Jerry and George driving around for a while and then getting coffee.

TV Larry is the toned down version of Larry David.

:3: I didn't realise the 'it's about NOTHING' thing came from George until I watched The Pitch today. I'm up to The Bubble Boy so far.

I should say that I know *zero* about how the rest of the series will pan out, other than that at the end, some (all?) of them get arrested for something. (I only know that because I glanced at the wiki page when I was wondering if I should start watching the show, I don't know how or why they get arrested). So, I don't know if the NBC thing works out and this becomes a sitcom-about-a-successful-sitcom-writer, or if it fails and Jerry just carries on being a lowish-radar club comedian. I could see both options being entertaining :).

The show being about nothing was always the premise of the show, they just had George pitch their show as it being about nothing because it's just a funny concept. I especially love George getting more mad every time Jerry tries to be say it is actually about something.

"NO NO IT'S ABOUT NOTHING! NOTHING HAPPENS!"

Oh, I got that it was self-referential, I should have phrased that better. I just loved George's delivery of it :3:

My favorite George line is when he and Jerry are having dinner with Elaine's father.

OH NO!
I'm watching The Invitations again as I type this, and it is amazing to watch George rant to Jerry, trying to figure out a way to get out of his wedding to Susan.

George: "If she would just take a plane somewhere..."
Jerry: "And what? Hope for a crash?"
George: "It happens."
Jerry: "You know what the odds are on a crash? It's a million to one."
George: "It's something. It's hope."

George literally hopes for his fiancee to die in a plane wreck because he is too chicken to break it off, and Jerry just goes right along with it.

These are the best written awful people in sitcom history.
