The line about the flight attendant looking down at the people in Coach as she whips the First-Class curtain closed....that is the funniest thing ever because it's SO TRUE. That quick little look.....yes!!!
Jerry is a kick ass comedian. It's awesome that he makes hilarious comments on just about any real life situation. Thanks for uploading the complete stand-up in good quality :)
I remember when I was a kid we would listen to the cd of this show in the car all the time. At 7:30 I would always think "how the hell has he never heard of a Q?"
When I was a kid my family was listening to the cd of this on a long car ride and when it got to the 'O with the line through it' bit, I went "It's called a Q, dummy." Every 6 months my mum or dad takes a jab at me about that. "Hey look Sam, It's the O with the line through it!"
The O with a line through it is the letter Ø. We use it in Norway, and the sound of it reminds me of the way an American says "Uuuh", only without the H.
So this was recorded in 1998, shortly after the "Seinfeld" series went off the air. The second-to-last episode of "Seinfeld," which was called "The Puerto Rican Day," included a bit in which Kramer accidentally set the Puerto Rican flag on fire and incited an angry mob of Puerto Ricans. It was really a joke about Kramer being clumsy rather than a slight against Puerto Ricans. Nevertheless, a group of angry Puerto Ricans who probably hadn't even seen the episode set up a protest right across the street from the theater where he performed this act. So when you hear "Jerry Seinfeld is a racist" at 7:52, it's probably from a bullhorn used in the protests across the street from the theater. Because of the anger from the Puerto Rican community from that episode when "The Puerto Rican Day" originally aired, this is the one episode of "Seinfeld" that does not air in syndication. They always skip over it, but it's on the DVDs. That episode also includes a bit involving George and a laser pointer, which might have something to do with the laser pointer at 14:40.
Shady Shores Comedy Hardly a secret. It was all over the news at the time. For example: www.ew.com/article/1998/08/21/tv-review-seinfelds-im-telling-you-last-time People said the episode was offensive to African-Americans and gays too, but I don't see how. Cedric and Bob were gay (flaming, really). But that wasn't the issue -- the issue was that they were also thugs for mugging Kramer to steal Elaine's armoire, forcing Kramer to wear a ribbon, and in that episode, leading the angry mob that chased Kramer and destroyed Jerry's car. It just goes to show that gay people can be bastards too. Was the show anti-straight because Newman was a bad guy? I don't think so. There were plenty of positive gay characters on the show. In "The Beard," Elaine posed as a girlfriend for a gay man and then tried unsuccessfully to convert him to heterosexuality. Also, I don't see how you could watch "The Outing" and think Jerry Seinfeld was homophobic. There was also "The Wig Master" episode, which was about as rainbow (or technicolor) as you get, and Elaine went to a lesbian wedding in "The Subway." I especially don't see anything about that episode being offensive to African-Americans. I don't even know what they're talking about. One of the villains in "The Puerto Rican Day" episode was the guy known as "Maroon Golf" based on the car he was driving, and he was black. But so what? Can't minorities occasionally be jerks just like any other segment of the population? They didn't talk about his race at all, he was just another guy stuck in traffic. I could understand how someone would hear about Kramer burning the Puerto Rican flag in "The Puerto Rican Day" and think it would be offensive. But if they actually WATCHED the episode as I did, they would hopefully see that they were making fun of Kramer having a terrible mishap with his cigar, not making fun of the Puerto Ricans. The only comment made about them in that episode was, "They are a very festive people." Hardly an epithet.
I'm an American and the first time I saw this I was living in Norway and that was my first thought. Its not another planet lol. He did a show in Norway that summer actually
9:29 - I like the way sink faucets are built in medical rooms, as pedal operated valves. It has the best features of all faucet types. Doesn't leave the water running, if you forget to turn it off Don't have to use grimy hands to turn it on Can use with both hands free to be washed Has a definite on, and a definite off...unlike timers or sensors.
i know that it just part of the show, but two things i find wrong with jerry seinfeld : one : how do you give a tv show a funeral. and two : how lucky did he get to be to kiss janeane garofalo, DANG IT SEINFELD !
true, but they have O's with lines through them in other languages and scripts too...like russian and greek. i don't think there's too many norwegian cab drivers in New York.
Here's the thing though: I don't remember the last time I've ever taken a cab, same goes for traveling by plane (though I remember scenes in movies). I rarely drive so I've never had an elderly driver move in reverse recklessly... :\
hes not making fun of his appearance, hes just quoting and episode from Seinfeld where they are going to the movies, and that's how Kramer describes Jerry
The pilot says, "I'm gonna' take it up to about 10,000". I'm thinking, "Sure. You're a trained professional. The destination on my ticket is correct. As long as you get me there safely, and I'm quite certain that you will, do what ya' gotta do. Take her up to 20. Shoot, if you need to take her up to 30, for whatever reason, take her up to 30. You and your co-pilot just make sure and hold off on "the sauce" until you land "this baby". Capeech? Set this fine piece of transportation on autopilot if ya'want. Take in the nice clouds or whatever it is that "floats your boat". Hopefully, my luggage is there. Just get me there with most of my serenity.
2:13 CARLIN: "Did you ever see his act?" KLEIN: "No not really man, did you?" CARLIN: "Yeah yeah, he was good... but I was full of drugs." Even in Jerry Seinfeld's comedy special, George Carlin steals the show!
You know, when Seinfeld talks about working clean, maybe that's the problem... Part of a joke is delivery and a swear word can add punch to the punch line. People praise him for working clean but maybe that's why I don't care for his jokes...
the best observational comic ever
Jerry had/has some good material but what makes him one of the greatest is his sense of timing. It's spot on all the time.
He cracks me up!
You're gold, Jerry. You're gold!.
One of the cleanest and most relatable comedians ever!!
Absolutely love the intro. TOO many legends in one place!
The line about the flight attendant looking down at the people in Coach as she whips the First-Class curtain closed....that is the funniest thing ever because it's SO TRUE. That quick little look.....yes!!!

''Some sort of bowling ball candle'' HAHAHAHAHAHA
That's GOLD, Jerry!
"I'm Telling You for the Last Time" -I love the double meaning of that title
Jerry is the BEST!!! ...in the world!
3:28 I love the face jerry makes he's made it on seinfeld before xD
It's good that he doesn't use swear words every 1.7 seconds to make things seem funnier like nearly every other comedian.
It’s not that I can’t have swearing. Some of my favorite comedians swear a lot. But so many use it as a crutch. Bad isn’t funnier with swearing.
swearing has nothing to do with being funny, people used it as an emphasis to emit their emotions out loud.
I remember when I was a kid we would listen to the cd of this show in the car all the time. At 7:30 I would always think "how the hell has he never heard of a Q?"
Funny is funny. Clean or dirty. He's just funny.
Lmao about the vague direction to the exits!!!!! So true!!!
Jerry Seinfeld, Dave Chappelle, and Jim Gaffigan. My favorite guy comedians 😂😂😂
the fact that this was Carlin approved made me watch the whole thing. it was worth it.
When I was a kid my family was listening to the cd of this on a long car ride and when it got to the 'O with the line through it' bit, I went "It's called a Q, dummy." Every 6 months my mum or dad takes a jab at me about that. "Hey look Sam, It's the O with the line through it!"
"Is there any cake?" lol
What a genius! Funniest guy on the planet, love you Seinfeld :)
The vague points. I'm getting out before them.. 😂
Pretty impressive lineup of fellow comics.
just seen him at the 02 dublin ! awsomness!
The O with a line through it is the letter Ø. We use it in Norway, and the sound of it reminds me of the way an American says "Uuuh", only without the H.
"Well you know, He's driving fast and recklessly but... He's the professional

Daniel Dougan Damn, you know your shit dougan. I feel like i just got let in on some government-behind the scenes-activity

Daniel Dougan Wow
You really know something.
Are you a writer or something?
Well, if there's away to be offended, snowflakes will find it.
omg all the greats are there
I'm an American and the first time I saw this I was living in Norway and that was my first thought. Its not another planet lol. He did a show in Norway that summer actually
Well.. he's the professional! hahahah!
he is professionally funny, it is a written fact, he is paid to be hilarious
*
The opening funeral scene was for the burial of Lady Comedy. It was filmed right after Jerry's "comedy" act was done.
*
call it drivel call it what you want, its all hilarious to me
I assure you, Seinfeld's millions won't be hurt if I bash him.
Touché... My moment of grammatical ineptitude has foiled my sarcastic douchebaggery.
What a breath of fresh air. Comedy without the filthy profanity.
It's an important part of any joke: the ability to relate. Do you live in New York? Which is where I assume Seinfeld was performing this...
lazer pointer panda strikes again!!! HAHAHAHAH!!!
Thank you so much for putting an annotation for the start of the video.
9:29 - I like the way sink faucets are built in medical rooms, as pedal operated valves. It has the best features of all faucet types.

DOPE FIEND
that one idiot that had to point the laser in his face 14:41 lol
i know that it just part of the show, but two things i find wrong with jerry seinfeld : one : how do you give a tv show a funeral. and two : how lucky did he get to be to kiss janeane garofalo, DANG IT SEINFELD !
14:42 Wow! Was that a sniper rifle or George with his laser pen!?
RIP Ed McMahon, George Carlin, Gary Shandling, Alan King
Oh what I would give to be in the 'good books' of a total stranger replying to my comments on RUclips.
It helps to have a face to put on a cab license. A hair dryer with a scope on it. Jerry you have been on too many Flights!
Nice "Bababooey" calls at the beginning of the standup
5:23
that kid in the intro looks like he's related to Jerry
damn howd u notice that. great attention to detail
did anybody notice the lasear beam thingy on his face at 14:41???
Did you see the size of that gun? It was bigger than him!
He starts his act at 5:23
If you aren't a Jerry fan, then, yea, this isn't funny, but for me, it's hilarious, every day life...Long Island style
true, but they have O's with lines through them in other languages and scripts too...like russian and greek.
i don't think there's too many norwegian cab drivers in New York.
richardhoon77 the people talk about o like that from noway is ridicules and bad in fact
Here's the thing though: I don't remember the last time I've ever taken a cab, same goes for traveling by plane (though I remember scenes in movies). I rarely drive so I've never had an elderly driver move in reverse recklessly... :\
WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE!!!! lmao

LordoftheJimmy Yehp. Definitely.
@Gerbilmeister On what grounds do you base your opinion?
@mahtexas It's all about the Foreplay.
3 cab drivers watched this.
1998 ? i thought this was in 1999 to be sure on which it is somebody please tell me when seinfeld left the air so can be sure
Wow, glad I haven't seen these exact same jokes on Seinfeld.
omg, absolutely. hahhah
2:54 Doorman he had trouble in one episode...actually his best friend in real life
so far, i haven't seen this show yet, but ALL the jokes in this part, are jokes i have heard him say before.......
at around 13:00 You're dead, you're dead, IM GONE! ::D:D:D:D:D:D
Don't be ego, Norway has it too ^^
@Actors317 this video was made in 1998
it took that frickin long to get to the stand up????????
What year was this?
who is the guy sitting to the left of gary shandling
Hey to each its own, its cool if you dont like em, just respect others who do.
Save Jerry @ 14:42! Call the cops :D
The thumbnail looks exactly like Joel Osteen
Your'e not the first to notice. It's an interesting phenomenon. Each set of people must look after its interests. Jewish humour is funny anyways.
14:43
is that a laser on his face?
seinfeld was fineeeeeee
I can't find part 2
Jerry would have liked that joke :)
Jerry, the character from the sitcom is funny. Jerry the comic...eh, maybe a few chuckles. Don't know why he gets so much praise as a comedian.
IM GOING TO USE CAPITALS TOO, JUST TO GET MY POINT ACROSS.
At 14:43 someone is pointing at Jerry with a laser gun.
ohhh, you lift UP on the buckle?
if its his special..why does he have to fix the mic??
Alan King is to Gary's left, Ed McMahon on his right (our left).
wheres the lazer?
laser pointer on Jerry 14:43
Thanks. 'Would have'? Is he dead? Who did it?
The O with a line through it is the Norwegian letter Ø.. You Englishtalkers say it when you say,fx. "girl" (gørl) and "dirty" (dørti) ;)
14:42. someone has a laser pointer
hence the name of the show....
i'm from pittsburgh
You know, when Seinfeld talks about working clean, maybe that's the problem... Part of a joke is delivery and a swear word can add punch to the punch line. People praise him for working clean but maybe that's why I don't care for his jokes...
"yah $14 Tuna salad" yah what's with these airline shops??
"You're nothing but a prop comic!"
did someone say "Jerry is a racist" at 7:53
