i downloaded a lot of torrents and i think season 8 misses off most of the beginnings :(

Another classic George moment is when he's hauling in the marble rye - the way he grabs the rod over his head as if he's pulling a marlin over the bow of a boat. Cracks me up every time.

And the whole "The ocean called, they're running out of shrimp" back and forth with the insults, ending with him making a U-turn on the freeway and driving back to get in one more dig.

Thanks, I kept trying to remember what the insult was that prompted the "jerk store" retort but was too lazy to look it up.

In spite of seing Seinfed as a dud currently, I always thought it was great how the finale was a big Kafka/Stranger reference.

I don't think I had previously seen the one where the jazz saxophonist busts his chops by going down on Elaine for too long, then can't play for his record label showcase. That's pretty amazing.

I don't know what it has to do with Seinfeld but it sure is funky.

there was a festivus set-up in DC when i was there this weekend.

― ian, Wednesday, 24 December 2008 01:31 (sixteen years ago)

By all that is holy, Seinfeld should be entirely unwatchable. The acting is rather awful and overdrawn. The writing is peculiar, but hardly great. I still wonder why it is moderately amusing. I suspect it may have something to do with the strange medium of television, or else the cuteness of Elaine.

― Aimless, Wednesday, 24 December 2008 01:46 (sixteen years ago)

Seinfeld succeeds because everyone secretly identifies with George.

― ian, Wednesday, 24 December 2008 01:49 (sixteen years ago)

"everyone"

― Aimless, Wednesday, 24 December 2008 01:52 (sixteen years ago)

i dont identify with him as much as want to be him

everything else about seinfeld>>>>>>>cuteness of elaine

and I will admit, elaine is damn cute

― sonderangerbot, Wednesday, 24 December 2008 02:29 (sixteen years ago)

this might be another case of british vs. american tastes in humor.

― ian, Wednesday, 24 December 2008 03:01 (sixteen years ago)

the top rated british sitcoms of all time feature men in frilly shirts with stupid accents going all king george this, and fish and chips that. of curse they wouldn't get seinfeld

― burt_stanton, Wednesday, 24 December 2008 03:07 (sixteen years ago)

Two nations divided by uncommon sitcoms?

this was supposed to be the summer of george

Post-Arrested Development/It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia this show doesn't really grab me by the booboo like it once did.

― "I Like My Hogen-Mogen" (nickalicious), Wednesday, 24 December 2008 03:14 (sixteen years ago)

One feels compelled to note the outstanding solo careers of all the principal actors after leaving this show. Bee Movie, anyone?

― Aimless, Wednesday, 24 December 2008 03:15 (sixteen years ago)

in britain its the summer of king george

From us Oregonians?? Or were you thinking something else?

Oh, I thought you were British. Who cares about you then

hayy burt i was thinking slash hoping maybe you could talk about how claxxxic nyc shows like seinfeld have influenced today's metro area hipter youth and what girls who wear mid-90s blazers to shows are like. other topics for your consideration: how much realer seinfeld is than friends, anti-semitism in america

i think this show is classic btw

― delicate mouse tune, crash of cat chords (Lamp), Wednesday, 24 December 2008 03:31 (sixteen years ago)

so many people so wrong on this thread

― J.D., Wednesday, 24 December 2008 06:40 (sixteen years ago)

Almost every britisher I know who has seen this show loves it. The problem is a lot of them haven't seen it. It was shunted around the schedules, usually late on BBC2. If it had a C4 8pm friday slot (or something) we wouldn't even be having this debate.

there's an awful lot of shouting in the earlier seasons isn't there.

― Ant Attack.. (Ste), Sunday, 1 February 2009 00:50 (sixteen years ago)

shouting and silence

seinfeld at its peak: classic

last two seasons: terrible

― as much dandelion as you can put in there (latebloomer), Sunday, 1 February 2009 02:43 (sixteen years ago)

I prefer Curb Your Enthusiasm because it has cursing and no annoying laughtrack. Man I fucking hate laughtrack. But Seinfeld was pretty damn classic, yes.

Last two seasons were terrible. Larry David picking up the prostitute just so he can drive in the carpool lane was funnier than every episode of the last two seasons of Seinfeld put together.

― Mr. Snrub, Sunday, 1 February 2009 03:08 (sixteen years ago)

wasn't seinfeld taped in front of an actual audience, hence actual laughter (as opposed to a 'laugh track', '60s sitcom style)?
