    Jerry is simply a decent and honest man. Jerry will absolutely not tolerate shoplifting of reading material, he will even rat out his own uncle. However, Jerry seems to having no quams about robbing an old lady of her loaf of bread.

    What interests me about Seinfeld is almost every guest star has a signature line or thing, Uncle Leo, David Puddy, J Peterman, Newman, Kenny Bania. Each character has something memorable about them and that's a small piece of what makes Seinfeld great.

    • @cps110886
      @cps110886 6 лет назад +16

      How dare you forget the great George Steinbrenner and Jackie Chiles in the last 3 seasons. These two men, along with Fred Stiller who did Frank Costanza brilliantly, made Seinfeld even more successful in their finals seasons. Otherwise, I don't think the show would've competed like it did in Seasons 3 through 6 when the others you mentioned were a hit, especially Newman when he was arguing with Kramer in court because he got hit in the head by Crazy Joe Devola (yet another great side character!).

    As Leo is getting arrested Jerry says Hello and Leo’s hello response was a classic. It was like he was upset with Jerry but he did say Hello and you “still say hello” so he had to respond with hello and somehow that made things a little better between the two for a split second.

(a) When a person, as a result of a mental health disorder, is a danger to others, or to himself or herself, or gravely disabled, a peace officer, professional person in charge of a facility designated by the county for evaluation and treatment, member of the attending staff, as defined by regulation, of a facility designated by the county for evaluation and treatment, designated members of a mobile crisis team, or professional person designated by the county may, upon probable cause, take, or cause to be taken, the person into custody for a period of up to 72 hours for assessment, evaluation, and crisis intervention, or placement for evaluation and treatment in a facility designated by the county for evaluation and treatment and approved by the State Department of Health Care Services.
