The genius of this show is that they never tried to make you like the characters. Everything in life relates to either this show or The Simpsons. Post your favorite Seinfeld moments! There are so many but here are a few to get the party started:

George: Your birthday is a bad day...you got everyone in your house, and you're thinking, "These are my friends?!"

Jerry: Every day is my birthday.

-"The Kiss Hello," Season 3 (the one where Kramer puts up the pictures of everybody in the apartment building)

-The one where Jerry thinks his dentist converted to Judaism for the jokes.

Elaine: That is so true! Although one wonders if "War and Peace"

would have been as highly acclaimed as it was if it was published under its original name: "War - What Is It Good For?"

Lippman: What?

Elaine: Yes, Mr. Lippman. It was his mistress who insisted he call it "War and Peace." "War - What Is It Good For...absolutely nothin!" That's the song that they got from Tolstoy.

Lippman: I'm sorry, it's just her sense of humor.

-"Not that there's anything wrong with that."

I guess my two favorites are:

1. Where George's father is saying to Elaine, "You wanna piece of me?"

2. Where George has that singing answering machine message, ".... where could I beeee?"

Other than that... I am admittedly not much of a fan of this show.

ok .... every episode when Kramer comes bursting into Jerry's apartment ... hehe


Festivus ... heheh ... need I say any more


When Kramer was at the bar wearing the mo-hair sweater (trying to find out if that guy was really dealing drugs, turns out the guy only sniffed due to an allergy to the sweater) ... Kramer drank the beer while still having the cigarette in his mouth

When Kramer was on the Regis and Kathy show showing off his coffee table book about coffee tables with the little legs that unfolded

When Kramer was watching the marathon right by the street holding a cup off hot coffee and the runner thought it was a drink for him and grabbed it. You only heard a scream as he must have gulped it down LOL

When Kramer took the cafe-latte into the theatre stuck in his pants pocket. He spilled it while trying to get into his seat and got burned and suid the coffee place (using that lawyer he always goes to who is funny as hell too LOL ) LOL ...

When Newman was driving down the road Kramer had spilled the paint remover on . Newman comes along driving his mail truck singing 'Once , twice , three times the lady" and hits this sewing machine which is now stuck under his truck sparking along the road . He hits the paint remover and there's these flames and he cries out "Oh the humanity" (reference to what the anouncer said when the Hindenburg airship caught fire back in the 30's for anyone who caught that vague reference)

When George (who the girl he was with thought was a marine biologist and urged him to take action to save the whale) saved the whale by removing the golf ball Kramer had hit out to sea. The story George was relating about the events was hilarious and when he showed the obstruction was a golf ball , Kramer's face looked so funny.

When Kramer had trouble limiting how long he showered and finally realised why should he limit his time when he really wanted to stay there ... so he installed a garbage disposal in the tub and started living there most of the time. He even made that supper in there.

When George was invited to a meeting which turned out to be a Rage-a-holics meeting ....and George gets all mad and starts yelling that he shouldn't be there ... then "I'm losing it ... I'm losing it"


well that's enough for now ...there's tons of funny moments

haha i love George's answerphone message.

And festivus. George's parents drive me crazy.

What about:

'these pretzels are making me thirsty'

'Youre all winners' (someone shouts to the people running the marathon)

'Step off'!

'Levels' (kramer)

'master of my domain'

eating the mars bar with a knife and fork

the bubble boy

I love (and miss) that show. Its rarely shown in the UK.

I love the one where George converts to Latvian Orthodox (sp?) for a woman and cheats on his conversion test. That is the same one where Kramer has that force that attracts women "I'm dangerous Jerry - I'm very dangerous."

Also the one where George decides to do the opposite and his life changes for the better, Jerry always comes out even and Elaine's life takes a downward turn.

Hmm....I've never watched a full episode of Seinfeld. I couldn't begin to understand why people thought it was funny. My only guess was that it made them feel better about themselves because the characters were such moronic screwups.

Guess I just don't get it *shrug*.

Where George is explaining to the firemen and his (George's) girlfriend why he ran out of the apartment that caught fire first, pushing the kids and old lady out of the way..... that scene has me in stitches.

I can't remember the episode at all, but Jerry says something to George and George wants him to repeat it. So George makes a "back up" signal with his hands and says "Beep... beep... beep... back it up", and Jerry looks confused and says "Beep beep beep???".

And I love Elaine's "NNNNEXT!" to the Soup Nazi at the end of that episode.

There are many more hilarious scenes (not that I can remember).

when ever I'm in a sauna, I generally sit there all sweaty and turn to whomever I'm with and say Kramer's line "It's like a suana in here" - I do it with the straightest face- and for some reason noone thinks it's funny- I do, I guess that's all that matters
