When Jerry and George were trying to think up a code word or song to sing as a warning signal, George suggests “how do you solve a problem like Maria” and Jerry suggests “lemon tree” and neither of them know wtf the other one is talking about. of course they don’t! Why didn’t they pick a normal song?? They only know weird old show tunes and folk songs??

This is in like 1993? Why didn’t they just say oh let’s sing a Pearl Jam song, or Michael Jackson or Abba or freaking Peter Gabriel?? Do they not know any regular music? You never see them listening to any music!!

And when Elaine calls into that radio show to identify the weird old big band song and wins tickets for Mr. Pitt to hold up the Woody Woodpecker balloon in the parade

True then the lady would also think they had diarrhea and excused their weird behaviour. That’s a much better plan

Wow you’re great at synthesizing information very succinctly. I can’t help but think in a simpler time you would do quite well writing plot summaries for tv guide :rolleyes:

I guess that lemon tree song is Peter Paul and Mary? I've never heard it outside of that small snippet that he sings.

Looking at the lyrics now why are they saying that the poor lemon tree should be sad no one will eat their fruit? Why would you want your precious fruit and seeds to be wasted being pooped into a toilet? Take that Peter Paul and Mary :smug:

Why reference 1960s artists when you can reference 1970s artists?!?!

They could use popular, well-known artists from the 60s and 70s :confused:

Is there an implied backstory in both George and Jerry's childhoods where they don't listen to popular music for whatever reason? Like they were forbade or some trauma? Was anyone else involved - i.e. Jack Klompus or Lloyd Braun's parents??

I took the octopath less travelered,

And it made one-eighth the difference.
It must be awkward to be a writer for the show and to have Jerry Seinfeld come in and say "You should write a plot where I am justified in ogling a fifteen year old's breasts."

Also whose idea was it to have a plot point where Kramer has to use an enema?

The show was good but it was mostly Larry David, and after Larry left the show it went downhill plus it turns out Seinfeld the real life dude is just a huge rear end in a top hat

The show was/still is insanely popular tho

It might just be myth but allegedly almost everything that happens in the earlier seasons of Seinfeld was something that had actually happened to Larry David.
