"Because he's my butler"

When asked why he was chosen over career officers, Seinfeld said, "Every time somebody promotes an officer, he's always the best. 'Oh, is he good?' 'Oh, he's the best. This guy's the best.' But we can't all be the best. There can't be this many bests. Someone's graduating at the bottom of Officer Training School. Where are those officers?"

Sources say that Seinfeld has gotten to work immediately. Soon after he greeted airmen around his office, he looked down at some of their shoes and said, "First, I wanna talk about these low quarters. What kind of shoe is that? Who calls shoes 'low quarters?' To me, a low quarter is when you see one lying in the street. It's a quarter, it's worth twenty-five cents. You want to pick it up, you'd be twenty-five cents richer. But you don't know where that quarter's been, so you stand there for a minute, undecided. And then you get hit by a car. You know what I'm talking about with these shoes."

Ya she was bad. Felt like she was reading from a script

Semi related:

Anyone see that Mad About You when Kramer was on there? Paul goes to his old apartment he used to live in before he and Jamie got married to get a box he left there and when he shows up we learn Kramer lives there. It was great. Kramer swings the door open and acts all quirky as only he can pull off. I'd put it up against his best scenes on Seinfeld.

Edit: When I say Kramer I do mean Kramer, not Michael Richards playing a different character on Mad About You.

Yeah, I remember that.

I was watching Chicago Justice when I heard and saw an actress that looked and especially sounded like Elaine's friend who found pastrami to be "the most sensual of all the salted, cured meats".



The younger actress is Stacey Farber, born 1987:



I knew the age difference was too great for it to be the same person, but found out that not only is it a different actress, but that the original actress, Suzanne Kellie Waymire, who was born in 1967, actually died in 2003.

It really makes you think...

What episode?

That would be the episode where Jerry and George stop by the apartment of the NBC big wig who they are pitching their show to. It was an unannounced visit if I recall, and the big wig was not feeling well, and the daughter came in briefly during which time the cleavage part happened. Of course George can't stop looking, and the big wig (can't remember his name) comes back on set, takes note of George staring at his daughter's tits, and says something "got a good look Costanza?"

later in the same episode, they arrange for Elaine to wear a low cut dress at a restaurant and they catch him peeking in the same manner. He has an "aw, you guys got me" look, and they all make up. Which doesn't make much sense, b/c Elaine's in her 30's and his daughter is 15, but whatever.

Litter Dances. But my cousin was in it as George's girlfriend. She wanted a bad boy.

GEORGE: My cousin worked for Bouchard's. They used to use the bouillabaisse for a toilet.
RUSSELL: What are you saying?
GEORGE: Well, you didn't hear it from me, but needless to say, if you go in there - stick with the consomm.

every time i go somewhere and see bouillabaisse on the menu, i think of this line.

"Ahhhh. Just empty calories and male curiosity, eh Georgie?" -Steinbrenner

"The sea was angry that day, my friends!"

Frank : what about your side, you cousin Hennie? She was sickly from the day I met her.

Estelle: don't you talk about Hennie!



I always thought the interactions between characters is what made this show. There are great relationships, but George's parents are amazing. I love the above interaction.

Also I love Susan's parents:

When you come in inside the house you wipe your wheels (I'm laughing about it right now)

The Cheever letters!

The opposite

"This is my religion."

I've seen this episode a lot, and it never ceases to make me laugh. It's the perfect distillation of Larry David's self-loathing.

The cleaning lady/girlfriend episode! Let's keep this sophisticated!

The Contest

From the episode where George becomes a hand model:

"That's right. He was not... master of his domain."

"You don't have to worry about me sir. I won a contest."
