I just watched The Rye and realized that Jerry robbing that old woman for her marble rye is one of the funniest moments in the entire series. He just literally robs her, and screams "shut up you old bag!". Then as he's running away you can see him kind of smirking, which was probably just jerry the actor not being able to keep a straight face, but it also completely makes sense that his character would be too as if to say "holy poo poo I actually just did that??".

According to the "Inside Looks" on the Seinfeld DVD's, that's one of three Buddy Rich lines in the show, lifted from bootleg tapes of Rich's rants that Seinfeld and David are fans of. The other two are "This guy... this is not my kind of guy." from "The Understudy" and "Then we'll see how he does, up there, without all the assistance." from "The Butter Shave" I think.

I'm honestly disappointed to hear "This guy... this is not my kind of guy." is a Buddy Rich quote. I mean I love Buddy Rich, but I always thought it was some awesome moment of Jerry Stiller weirdly screwing up the line in a way that was unexpectedly more funny, and they decided to use it. Oh well....

Also the dramatic sequence with Georges father regarding his time as a cook in the Vietnam war. The dramatic music, the close up on his face. "In my mind, there's a war still going on..."

I just realized the character of Susan's mother is amazing, especially when she's drunk.

"Look Henry I spilled wine on me!"

And a bonus Frank quote from a scene with her:

"Let me understand. You've got the hen, chicken and the rooster. The rooster, goes with the chicken. So who's. havin. sex. with. the hen?"

Having just watched "The Secretary" for some reason I think it's really awesome how they use Uma Thurman as such a "focal" point of the episode, but she's not actually ever in it and you never even see her in body double form or anything.

Also it has:

"This.. is false... reflecting! And I think, the department of, ya know, whatever, would be very interested to know what's going on here! :nyd:"

I just laughed for like three straight minutes at Elaine's "Lookit... it's not Suse, alright? It's Susie.. my name- is SU-SIE". Her angry\manic outbursts are always so good. The whole concept of that episode is one of the best examples of the late season surreal humor.

Hahaha, The Van Buren Boys is so good. I love the whole Jerry plot with his girlfriend (Christine Taylor) and how she's just inexplicably a "loser" and all of his friends instantly recognize her as such. Meanwhile to Jerry and the audience there's absolutely nothing wrong. And then I think about it, and I really do know people like her.

It also has my favorite George quote of all time: "Finishing an entire book doesn't prove anything."

One of my favourite Kramer scenes is him telling Brad to leave and closing the door, then opening it a second later and saying "What you're still here?".

And after they decide to restart Kramerica, they go into Kramer's apartment and close the door and immediately come back out to see what Jerry has to eat.

I mean they did get away with a lot as far as sex goes for a 90's sitcom. There are multiple cunnilingus references throughout the series which just seems really heavy to me for some reason. Plus, off the top of my head, masturbation contest (involving a female contestant), "I've got hand" -- "And you're gonna need it to jerk off with", Elaine propositioning Jerry just to "clear her head" and then considering Kramer when Jerry refuses.. which now that I mention it is a really funny scene. "Spongeworthy".. the list goes on.

"So what's this job of yours?"
