As a tribute to one of my all time favorite TV shows, Seinfeld, I have created this article to show you some of my more memorable episodes from the Seinfeld DVD set- The Complete Series.
Seinfeld Season Six – ‘The Race’ – Jerry finds out that his girlfriend works for a former high school sprinting rival of Jerrys. Jerrys old rival Duncan insists that Jerry cheated during the race by false starting, and asks for a rematch. Jerry gets nervous when he finds out a bunch of old school friends are coming to watch the race. However, Jerry is persuaded to run when Duncan threatens to fire his girlfriend if he doesn’t. During the race Jerry mistakes the sound of a car engine back firing for the sound of the starting gun, and again wins by false start.
Seinfeld Season One – There were few episodes from season one, however one of my favorites was ‘The Stakeout”. The Stakeout starts off with Jerry and Elaine going to a party together as friends. While at the party Jerry meets an attractive lawyer, who tells Jerry where she works, but leaves before telling him her name. Jerry decides to wait in the lobby at her workplace to get the chance to meet up with her again. Things get awkward between Jerry and Elaine, until Elaine reveals that she done a similar thing with a guy she wanted to meet.
Seinfeld Season Three – ‘The Parking Garage’ – Jerry, Kramer, Elaine and George all go out shopping for the day. Kramer buys an air conditioner and Elaine gets herself a gold fish. After they have finished shopping the group forget where they have parked there car, and split up to look for it. Jerry is in desperate need to use go to the toilet, so Kramer tells him to go behind a car; Jerry is caught by security and interrogated. Later the same thing happens to George.
Seinfeld Sean Six – ‘The Chinese Woman’ – After Jerry spots Georges dad talking to a man in a cape he tries to call George and tell him. However, Georges line gets crossed and Jerry winds up talking to a lady named Donna Chang, whom he believes is Chinese, but is actually white. Jerry starts dating Donna who acts and behaves like a Chinese woman. Meanwhile, Donna starts talking to Georges mother,Estelle, over the phone and talks her out off divorcing Frank. Estelle pulls out at the last minute, due to the fact that she thought she was getting advice from a Chinese woman.
Seinfeld Season Five – ‘The Bris’ – Jerry and Elaine are asked to become godparents to their friends child and are asked to organise the babies bris. Things go bad at the bris when the mohel cuts Jerrys finger while performing the circumcision. In the end the parents change their minds and ask Kramer to be the godfather.
Having a collection of the all time best comedy movies can be a great way to entertain yourself during those rainy days and lazy weekends. Over the years there have been a number of great comedy movies that leave you in complete hysterics and remained embedded in your memory for years to come. When choosing my list of the top 10 comedy movies, I used a combination of the unforgettable ones I had first watched years ago, and a few of the more recent ones that I think will remain memorable in the years to come.
You’ll see below that I have collected some familiar quotes from each of my favorite comedy movies. Lets see if you can remember the movie I have I selected.
1) It was all that Dan Marino’s fault, everyone knows that. If he had held the ball, laces out, like he was supposed to, Ray would never have missed that kick. Dan Marino should die of gonorrhea and rot in hell. Would you like a cookie, son?
2) character 1 – Or are you here to tell me what a bad eugoogoolizer I am? – character 2 – A what? – character 1 - A eugoogoolizer… one who speaks at funerals. Or did you think I was too stupid to know what a eugoogooly was?
3) Why would a reviewer make the point of saying someone’s “not” a genius? Do you especially think I’m “not” a genius? You didn’t even have to think about it, did you?
4) character 1 So, what’s your tale, Mother Goose? Where ya from? character 2 Oh, all over. character 1 Omnipresence. I like that in a woman.
5) character 1 – In case you haven’t noticed – which you haven’t, ’cause from what I can tell, you don’t notice anything ever – we are not very functional when we’re high. character 2 – Well, I don’t know, man. I think I’m functioning right now. I was, like, stoned when I saved you with those slushies. What do you gotta say to that?
6) The details of my life are quite inconsequential… very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French p——– named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we’d make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really. At the age of twelve I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum… it’s breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it.
7) I hear words like “beauty” and “handsomness” and “incredibly chiseled features” and for me that’s like a vanity of self absorption that I try to steer clear of.
character 1 – If you want to join the People’s Front of Judea, you have to really hate the Romans. character 2 – I do! character 1 – Oh yeah, how much? character 1 – A lot! character 1 – Right, you’re in.
9) That’s a lovely wrap you’re wearing! Perhaps I could buy you some fluffy new slippers, made from the heads of innocent and defenseless baby seals!
10) All right fellas, we’re gonna make camp, rest up. Y’all might be in for a treat. You know back before the war broke out I was a saucier in San Antone. I bet I could collar up some of them greens, yeah, some crawfish out the paddy, yo’! Ha! I’m makin’ some crabapples for dessert now, yo! Hell yeah, ha!
