In this whole sitcom Jason Alexander was the best actor when it comes to talent. There was not a single episode where his acting skills would fail. Best actor of Seinfeld series. And Jerry by the way was the worst actor. Nevertheless, it is still amazing how two of them managed to make it work and created and outstanding atmosphere.
I don't just love the episode on it's own merit...it's brilliant (IMO). But I love the fact that they found a way to write it so even the network censors couldn't get it cut.
And the episode is so much funnier because of it. If they had used the technical terminology even once it would have been less funny. That subtlety is largely missing in today's comedy.
Okay, so if I remember correctly, the episode never donned a winner between George and Jerry. But, sometime later in the episode where George got a job as a hand model, he referenced 'winning a contest'.
@@SAM-ru4vx those are all great but this one had the best writing. The Fusilli Jerry and The Puffy Shirt are very close behind and they all form the Holy Trilogy of Seinfeld IMO.
Good catch. In the scene where Kramer loses, he's the only one not wearing red. It looks like wardrobe was used to indicate who was still 'in' and ''out'.
+Clayton Anderson George but he said in the final that he cheated so Jerry is the legitimate winner and the real life contest that this is based on Larry David won.
at the end of current Contest episode it's not clear, as they're all satisfied and in deep sleep - but yes, in the final ep. George admits he claimed the win on false ground
They mean than in the future could touch them self but dont realy did at the same time than give up,at least in the case of Kramer it was not like that, he retired because he felt unable to resist in the future due to the Jerry's nudist neighboring
Exactly. Who says "This guy said he wanted to meet me so I just HAD to rub one out." It's worse than George rubbing one out to the underwear catalogue.

"Oh my God the queen is dead" 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂That line always gets me.
Rip to the queen
Love it when George said he’d figure she’d cruise until the spring 😂😂
So true. They should have insisted on 10:1 odds.
LMAO Jerry and George fighting at the beginning is funny af. "YEAHH" "It's Elaine" "COME ON UP!!!"
So Jerry actually followed Bookman's advise and got those instant coffees

Spot on
Jason is an amazing actor !
And Jason Alexander never got an Emmy...? Now, that's an enigma...
but he magically grew hair so he's probably happy.
Hahaha... :-)
The Chinese have done some amazing research.
just shows you how good tv used to be...
Wrapped in a twinkie.
This was one of the best episodes from Seinfeld.
Everyone talked about this one at the firehouse the next day
It doesn't get better than this?
Yikes
"I'm yelling at strangers on the street!"
You do that anyway, George.
“Elaine Benis Kennedy Jr.” implies her mother is also named Elaine Benis Kennedy 😂
“I figured you’d cruise at least through the spring” that line is so phenomenal

Richards > Alexander > Louis-Dreyfus >>> Seinfeld
Naw, you guys are all wet - it was what you call an "ensemble cast". Everybody contributed and the whole was greater than the sum of the parts.
No... It's Kramer.
Togrul Bagirli “worst actor” yet he WROTE the entire series, every season, every episode lol
InDatParish Larry David would like to have a word with you.
I love how Jerry yells when Elaine buzzes the bell
"YEAH!?"
"It's Elaine."
"COME ON UP!!"

Well they didn't once use the words wank, jerk off, or masturbate so the network had no issues with it
Same way they got away with "He took it out." We all know what she was talking about, the censors couldn't do a damn thing.
Not that there's anything wrong with that! @@TheReaperMan275
And the episode is so much funnier because of it. If they had used the technical terminology even once it would have been less funny. That subtlety is largely missing in today's comedy.
YEAH??!!
Its Elaine.
COME ON UP!!!!
I love how Elaine and George are wearing the same jackets here!!
Time to update your prescription, since you seem to think plain brown is the same as brown plaid.
Captain Ravioli bro you can do better than that
Lemme guess, she stole it from him too! You see what that guy has to deal with. Some friends those two are.
“I’m George! I’m George!” -Elaine
@@siltom1962 they look the same
The face of George when he says "and then I don't have them anymore". What an actor!!!
Okay, so if I remember correctly, the episode never donned a winner between George and Jerry. But, sometime later in the episode where George got a job as a hand model, he referenced 'winning a contest'.
In the series finale, he said he cheated
00:02 I'm glad to see Jerry listened to Mr Bookman after all.
Technically, Julia LouiseDreyfus family fortune is much bigger than Kennedys.
The absolute best ep they ever did.

I saw Jerry Seinfeld do stand-up in person! The man is a showbiz legend!
@@Pens4Life85 No, actually I've seen him three times. He's really funny.
🍷👍
LMFAO. George sniffed the money. Never understood why before 😂
Oh my she actually is
The best episode of Seinfeld
Best show in existence
The UK today: 1:02
Underrated comment.
The fact that Elaine and George are wearing the same colors is indicative of who really won the contest.
...Elaine?
Lianna Pfister nope.
...are you gonna enlighten me or what?
In the finale, as the plane is going down, George admits to Jerry he cheated to win a contest...
Good catch. In the scene where Kramer loses, he's the only one not wearing red. It looks like wardrobe was used to indicate who was still 'in' and ''out'.
I recall an episode in which Elaine questioned why everyone made such a big deal over/about the Kennedys
Ah John-John.
OHHhhhhhhhhh, John-John!
I don’t keep real coffee here I GET MY COFFEE ON THE OUTSIDE
SHEE- 😭1:02
0:04 Funny thing, Jerry never actually drank coffee during the show until after it was over.
That's why he never had it around! 😂
@@lisaboje3640 But he gets it on the outside... so there's that.
Boy, are the boys in a crabby mood🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Jerry's really upset in this episode... love it!!
1:02 my reaction when I saw Queen Elizabeth II had died
George was pretty funny in this scene but Jerry's comeback to George is so underrated
Who could go the longest without gratifying themselves-- lmao
Came here for 1:16 😂
Aaaaaaah john-john...
What's a "John-john"????
Tribot 968 she's talking about JFK Jr who had a nonspeaking cameo on this show
It actually wasn't him at all, just an actor shown from behind. JFK Jr. told Jerry that people often told him how great he was on the show!
And then... there were two.
Cruise through the spring!? Yeah right!!
Spoiler Alert:
George cheated on the contest.
Elaine Benes Kennedy, Jr.
damn 1:02
Ye man ☹️😭
George and Jerry fighting and snapping at each other is testosterone buildup.
You get feistier.
Who came back to watch after Queen Elizabeth's death?! May she R.I.P.
she was master of her domain.
Legendary Show
0:27 It's true though that's exactly what jerry did 😂
Didn’t George admit to lying about the contest in the last episode?
He did
Whenever he's about to say "you caved?" I always think he's about to say "you came?"
THE QUEEN IS DED
Who won the contest?
Stephen Aspinall I guess we’ll never know
lolly 89 Jerry
@Stephen Aspinall True, but I like to think of that series finale of Seinfeld as apocrypha, and so in my mind I believe George won.
@@matthintz9468 dude seinfeld s finale is so underated. Check it again see what happens!
@@matthintz9468
Give the contest to George.
He has so little...
OMG the Queen is dead!
That oven mitt is so cute.
Those are my socks… 😂
1:02 2022-09-08
Came here for this comment. Wasn’t disappointed.
😭😭😭 I still can’t believe it
I figured you'd Cruise at least through the spring
Another Seinfeld quote that's still accurate, the queen is indeed dead, September 2022
This happens really..When you don't release it for while,agitation follows.
Wow!!😄😃 Thank you for clearing up my confusion 😁😁
This is really how you act when you can’t do it
“Where’d you get those socks?”
“I don’t know.” 😑
1:02 is this quote foreshadowing or in poor taste to point out?
advantage VARNSEN!
Where you get that socks
I'm pretty sure George had already cheated at this point... 😂
So I guess after Mr. Bookman's done with Jerry, he went out and got some instant coffee ;)
"Oh my god, the queen is dead"
1:02 that didn't age well
How? Nobody lives forever.

so who ended up winning?

siimens73 what is the big deal ?
I couldn't see them but those were George's socks. Jerry just had to have them.
How many days did they actually last?
Anyone notice youtube is recommending clips from “The Contest” during November? Coincidence???
She has Grace like her Mom...
Z3440 X some grace
Jason Alexander was the best actor in Seinfeld!
How did Julia keep a straight face filming this scene?
She must know the muffin man :)
Boy she sure dodged a bullet or should I say airplane by not getting together with JJ.
Why is that?
I lol at George smelling Elaines money @ 1:39.

Hello 1984 🎉🎉
I would pay to watch how Elaine lost the bet!!😬
I don't understand. John John? How did this cause Elaine to beat off?
A lot of women found JFK jr (John John) hot so when Elaine was asked out by him ...
TheArfdog All women did...
Arfdog I guess it's de Akcent 😂
She's fantasizing about marrying him at the end - Elaine Benes-Kennedy Jr. XD
Exactly. Who says "This guy said he wanted to meet me so I just HAD to rub one out." It's worse than George rubbing one out to the underwear catalogue.
First to come here after the queen's death
...we want Jason A. get all 9 Emmies ... retroactively...:-)❤️🌹
Yep, we humans get irritable when we get "backed up".
I wouldn't sme that money, George
Ohhhhh John-John
wich epsiode and witch sesson ?!
