what about Newman's mail truck catching fire because of the sewing machine Elaine dropped on the road, which ignited the paint thinner that Kramer spilled? Newman shouting "Oh the humanity!" gets me every time.
The fact that Jason Alexander only memorized but NEVER rehearsed, "The sea was angry that day my friends..." biologist speech is makes it even more amazing! What we are seeing is a first take.
Jerry is the best you never said milky white. Serenity Now Serenity Now. They had sit him a cork on the flight home he had a crater in his colon the size of a cutlet.
It's older than me and I've already watched the show from beginning to end 3 times and now I'm just watching clips from it on RUclips, the new stuff can't hold a candle to Seinfeld
One of the greatest aspects of Seinfeld’s writing was their ability to weave together several seemingly disparate storylines, all within the span of a 30-minute runtime!
So many writers behind the scenes worked their asses off for countless hours along with Jerry and Larry to make this show about so-called nothing phenomenal
@@ChaossX77 No he isn't. The studios forced them to get other writers who could write plots, because Larry insisted on just doing 'The Chinese Restaurant' style episodes where they just stand around having boring conversations. That's why Season 1 and 2 have the worst episodes. Seinfeld was on the verge of being cancelled because of Larry David. Fortunately he left after Season 6, because he didn't have the talent to contribute to the new and improved style. That's why Season 7 and 8 have most of the classic masterpiece episodes. Unfortunately, Larry came back for the finale. Oh well.
The hidden gem here is that Frank was already old when he was a military cook, and his dramatic storytelling, "i sent 16 of my own men to the latrines that night".
I also love the meshing of the story lines of The Jimmy - George selling Jimmy's training shoes but is suspected of selling stolen Yankees equipment, Kramer attends the dinner to benefit the mentally challenged and becomes guest of honor, serenaded by Mel Torme.
13:53 - Frank: "No breaks. I feel reborn! Like a phoenix rising . . . from Arizona!" How have I always missed this line until just now? Ladies and gentlemen, the great Jerry Stiller.
'Old Man in the Sea', or 'Moby Dick'. I should have actually read the required reading in High School. Cliff Notes did not cover this. Same with Shakespeare. Ugh, who would have thought this would come up later in life? Much like Algebra!
I know it wasn’t really intertwined with another storyline but I’m shocked and chagrined Kramer’s interrogation of George in the attempt to guess his ATM code wasn’t included. THE best writing in the history of sitcoms. “Uhh…what kind of man are you? Well you’re weak…spineless…a man of temptations.”
I was like 7-10 yrs old watching this for the first time with my parents(they were cool like that) when all these eps came out. A lot of the jokes went right over my head. The good thing is, rewatching it now 20 yrs later is like seeing it for the first time, and actually getting all the jokes and double entendres lol.
This video absolutely proves what ALL Seinfeld Fans have always known....The Show About Nothing was actually The Show About Everything! 33 years and this Gift Keeps giving....another Festivus Miracle! Cheers From Ohio To ALL The Fellow Groupies!
The first time when George pulled out the golf ball I lost it, I just lost it!!!! I had to mention the "first time," because we all have seen it dozens of times...😂😂😂
And that stunned look on Kramer face, even a few seconds before George takes out the Tileist. He already put it all together when hearing there was something in the blowhole.
My personal favourite is the seasonal peaches, apartment flea infestation, Elaine's job interview, and Jerry's parents being in town ALL coincided to make Kramer lose his sense of taste. The moment I burst out laughing is: S: "How long were you in there?" K: "Three hours! I was reading this manuscript I couldn't put it down!"
These are all very good, but for me the ULTIMATE weave for me has always been when Elaine hauls garbage in Jerry's car because she was ordering food out of the Janitors closet, and he wanted to prove to a girl garbage in his car didn't bother him. I lose it every time when she nods to George who is jackhammering on a pothole. She swerves around the luxurious wide lanes on the highway losing and old sewing machine which catches on Newman's mail truck and precedes to ignite a fiery blaze of the paint thinner Kramer spilt all over the road. Genius writing in my opinion.
You know how brilliant it is for the scenario to go in the direction of "George you're obviously lying anyone can see that" instead of coming up with another plot device.

They said the response from the audience...they had to do multiple retakes. Jason had a line vutvMike said (like with Jerry Stiller with the metal pole "just drag it in! The sound is the punchline!" He said that abou the physical comedy..the ball would say it all!
These are good. But by far the best episode for interwoven storylines is "The Merv Griffin Show". In that episode the story lines of all four of the characters are resolved with the final scene. There is Kramer and his Merv Griffin set, Jerry and the woman with the toys, Elaine and the "sidler" and George with the handicapped squirrel. It is genius.
Larry David is a genius! What he was very good at.. was figuring out how all four main characters.. somehow, their four individual plots.. flowed into one main plot.
There was an episode in season 2, I think, where George wasn't featured. Jason Alexander cornered Larry David and told him that unless he was essential to every single episode from that point on, he would walk from the show
@@Kanovskiy Jason was afraid of eventually being kicked out of the show if needed (budget cut, for example), not being indispensable... he was right, just read the tons of stupid comments eager to compare one actor with another like if the four of them weren't indispensable for the show's success.
Larry AND JERRY PLUS THE WRITERS... this cult of Larry David is so stupid, both Larry and Jerry themselves are the first to admit it was a collective effort. Like every cult, their members are blind.
I can tell ya I listen to this golf ball story 100x, and I still laugh, the comedy is so well played together with each story working in the end together it's genius... you can just find this gold anymore. I watch this stuff and pray to the TV Gods that one day it may come back. They bring everything else back, we need the Seinfeld and the slow paced stories (none of this fast editing crap) it'll make gold Jerry gold!
Jerry Stiller was a comedic genius. He made the character of Frank Costanza. His portrayal made it so easy to see why George was so “dysfunctional”. His setup for Jason Alexander to play off of made George the memorable character that he was. I miss the old school comedic actors that could make us laugh with just a look. When they’re given great material to work with on top of that talent, well that’s when comedy magic takes place. To me it was so amazing how the small background characters could set up the main characters to be so memorable.
I like how they always made them wear white socks. They weren’t the type to wear black socks intentionally they were just sensible about what they wore.

Yeah that was hilarious
The “Oh the Humanity” is a nod to news man Herbert Morrison who said that when he witnessed the Hindenburg explosion…
@@hertzair1186 yes

That face too...
And George's subtle nod after Kramer asks, "What is that, a Titleist?" 🤣
Omg was gonna say d same!!!😅
And how Kramer waits for the audience to stop laughing before he reacts vocally.
I just love how they didn't even bother getting a younger actor or making Frank Costanza look younger for the 1950 flashback 🤣

That was so funny!!!!!

This “Emmy” comment is the equivalent of the “He never had the makings of a varsity athlete” comment on Sopranos videos

Idk how the cast kept a straight face during the outburst from Jason Alexander ctfu, pure gold!
What a superb story.
The fact that Jason Alexander only memorized but NEVER rehearsed, "The sea was angry that day my friends..." biologist speech is makes it even more amazing!

back when Seinfeld first aired, no one knew who Larry David was, now, its funny noticing how much his voice was used.
One of the best, most witty and clever TV comedies ever.
A perfect storm of comedy….nothing has ever come close to this
I know it wasn’t really intertwined with another storyline but I’m shocked and chagrined Kramer’s interrogation of George in the attempt to guess his ATM code wasn’t included. THE best writing in the history of sitcoms. “Uhh…what kind of man are you? Well you’re weak…spineless…a man of temptations.”
"You're a portly fellow..."

Top 10 TV moment of all time. fantastic
I watch thid instead of prozac
I loose it every time
And that stunned look on Kramer face, even a few seconds before George takes out the Tileist. He already put it all together when hearing there was something in the blowhole.
Regardless of the subject matter, I start all my conversations with "The sea was angry that day my friends...."
"Easy big fella" 😂
The mail room guy is an old friend from high school, Ned Bellamy, a very nice guy and obviously a great actor.
My personal favourite is the seasonal peaches, apartment flea infestation, Elaine's job interview, and Jerry's parents being in town ALL coincided to make Kramer lose his sense of taste. The moment I burst out laughing is:
S: "How long were you in there?"
K: "Three hours! I was reading this manuscript I couldn't put it down!"
The punchline of that scene for me is Kramer saying he fixed a sandwich in the fumigated apartment.
Kramer kicking the golf clubs......
"I STINK"😂
It's like the more you watch these kinds of scenes, the more you appreciate them.
These are all very good, but for me the ULTIMATE weave for me has always been when Elaine hauls garbage in Jerry's car because she was ordering food out of the Janitors closet, and he wanted to prove to a girl garbage in his car didn't bother him.

When Kramer adopts a highway. Hands down best interwoven storyline of all time.
"The city is gonna go ape! I don't want to lose my baby!"
Kramer and Newman crazy in the flames
You know how brilliant it is for the scenario to go in the direction of "George you're obviously lying anyone can see that" instead of coming up with another plot device.
"the sea was angry that day, my friends" gets me every time
I just used that line two days ago.

The sea was angry that day my friends
Like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli

Disparate story lines.
