B) the coughing dog.

The coughing dog was so amazingly low effort and brilliant that I started laughing when I remembered it was in the episode, and when it actually coughed for the first time I went into hysterics.

The best TV comedy of all time.
The moment I started reading this post I cracked up when the image of the quick cut to the dog doing a human cough popped into my head.

I wish .gifs had sound so someone could post it.

The part where he coughs right into Elaine's face is also pretty funny.
Oh right :doh: Youtube. Thanks for posting that, it's as funny as I remember.

I love the bit where Jerry does the Kramer-esque hand gesture when he goes "Oh, I'm stressed!"

Michael Richards seems like such a killjoy in the outtakes, though. But I suppose if it was just Jerry, Jason Alexander, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus, they never would've gotten anything done.
Richards' philosophy was to always stay in character in case something unplanned and awesome happened, which usually was the case due to all the physical stuff he did. And he was worried they would lose the energy of the audience if they messed up too many times.

This is a pretty awesome setup and reminds me of the (true) story about Larry David inadvertently clearing a guy for murder when he was visible in a crowd shot at a baseball game on Curb Your Enthusiasm which proved his alibi.

She gave me the "We need to talk" routine, so I went for the P-E-B and it worked, even though it turned out she wanted to talk about something else entirely. But while before I had very little Hand, now I have absolute Hand and things are great.

Thankfully she's not really into Seinfeld, otherwise the jig might be up.

I cannot get my head around this shot from The Parking Garage. It looks like something H.P. Lovecraft would write.


They used a lot of mirrors on that set to make the place look bigger. They're pretty obvious in a lot of shots, particularly that one. The whole episode was filmed on a set and not one bit of it was in an actual parking garage, which is pretty impressive for a regular sitcom.

They also had Elaine in clothes a size too big to make her look frumpy and unattractive, the reasoning being they didn't want the audience to have sympathy for Elaine (who is arguably the "worst" of the bunch) simply because she was good-looking.

The overall tone was pretty weird and dark for Seinfeld (as it tends to be with Larry Charles episodes) but both episodes did have their moments. Tuck or no tuck? George and Jerry in the cop car, Clint Howard and some great Kramer gags. I really dislike the resolution though with Kramer deciding to stay in LA and then he's suddenly back! And the interrogation scene could've been funny but turned out oddly disturbing instead.

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.

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.
