And slightly related, I love it when George yells at people,"You know we're living in a society here!"

Reminds me of my favorite moment from the CYE Seinfeld episode, "A couple of bad strangers...RUINING IT FOR THE REST OF US!"

I just watched The Contest again, and it contains one of the few things I dislike about the entire series. Nothing peeves me more than when it's obvious that someone didn't do their research, and portraying Tiny Toon Adventures as an educational PBS-type show for toddlers with Jerry singing the Wheels on the Bus irks me big time. And I never even liked Tiny Toons.

Conversely, having off-the-wall action sound-effects during George's viewing of Home Alone cracks me up every time. Ah well.

Guys, come on, The Busboy is the worst.

The Stranded is a great episode up until they finally leave the house, then it just kind of falls flat with the whole prostitute thing in the last few minutes. They should have just come up with extra material to fill the time and have them finally leave the house at the very end.

They're the only episodes that don't have all of the main four and always feel kind of off because of it.

Elaine isn't in either part of the Trip and that episode is fantastic.

And, for the record, so is the Chinese Restaurant. :colbert:

Season's 8 and 9 are the best, the earlier you go back in the show the more George becomes like Woody Allen, it just isn't as good.

Yeah, late-series angry George better than the early years

Well... Jerry, a stand-up comedian, did give Babu, a restaurant owner, some advice on how yo run his restaurant. I think that's illegal, at least in NY.

Jerry: Oh, Babu? Babu... you know, I've got to tell you, I never do this, but the shrimp... it's just that it's a little stringy. Do you have any chicken?

Babu: ...the shrimp is stringy?

Jerry: Well, maybe your refrigerator-

You treat the numbers like a dial phone, so bosco would be 2676.

Granted, but bosco's numerical equivalent is actually 26726, not 2676, and 5-number PINs don't exist as far as I'm aware

I like when George asks the girl why they have to tilt the harp while they play it. It was the kind of question Larry David would've asked someone in Curb.

It makes me wonder how someone like Jerry could stand to be longtime friends with someone like George.

George is the type of person who you'd be sort of friends with as a kid because you liked the same comic books, but eventually you'd want to disassociate yourself from him in order to avoid social alienation.

George: Okay, here it is, I got it! She lost her thumbs in a tractor accident, and they grafted her big toes on! They do it every day.

Jerry: You think she's got toes for thumbs?

George: How's her handshake? A little firm, isn't it? Maybe a little too firm?

Jerry: I don't know.

George: Hand a little smelly?

Jerry: Why do I seek your counsel?

I personally find Jerry Seinfeld hilarious, but I know what you mean. Your complaint reminds me of something Douglas Adams wrote:

I had the same experience Adams had when I first heard this Carlos Mencia joke: "My car's passenger-side mirror says 'Objects closer than they appear'. WHY DON'T THEY JUST REPLACE IT WITH A NORMAL MIRROR THEN, DUMBAAAAAAAS."

I feel awful for bringing up Mencia in the Seinfeld thread :(

So you're saying that you liked Mencia before that?

Oh god no, I was just relating his experience of hearing an observational joke whose punchline relies on ignorance of how things work. Not so much the "falling out of love" part. Guess I shouldn't have brought it up, whoops.

I just hate it when entertainers don't do their homework.

I would very much advise against paying loving 30 dollars for a tshirt with a seinfeld reference on it.

Easy there. I was more blown away by the fact that the shirt existed, and as far as Seinfeld references go it's pretty obscure. I'm not actually going to buy it.

THIS, however, I might.
