About Seinfeld:
Seinfeld stars Jerry Seinfeld as a stand-up comedian whose life in New York City is made even more chaotic by his quirky group of friends who join him in wrestling with life's most perplexing, yet often trivial questions. Often described as "a show about nothing," Seinfeld mines the humor in life's mundane situations like waiting in line, searching for a lost item, or the trials and tribulations of dating. Co-starring are Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Jerry's ex-girlfriend and current platonic pal, Elaine Benes; Jason Alexander as George Costanza, Jerry's neurotic hard-luck best friend; and Michael Richards as Jerry's eccentric neighbor, Kramer.

RIP Mr Joe Bookman (Philip Baker Hall)
One of the most memorable characters and funniest bits in the series.
Last role he had to audition for. After this, everybody knew who he was and it opened countless doors. That's how powerful Seinfeld was, and his performance too.
@@hugolafhugolaf wow, I had no clue. Must have felt pretty good for him to have found success later in his life like that.
Loved him in "Fired Up!".
This man just died 2 months ago, June 12th, 2022. RIP. This was an amazing performance, reminds me of leslie neilson in naked gun playing a detective.
...you and your good time buddies! Lol
@@steverogers7601 That's what Judge Judy said! ⚖️💼
Ever notice bookman is looking on the insides of jerry's books when he first enters to see if they've got the library stamp on them.
Yep, we noticed.
I like how Jerry is trying not to laugh throughout most of the scene with Bookman.
The character Jerry would have done the same thing.
@@edwardkenny6061 Right. I think that would be a normal reaction.
It is not everyday one meets tough monkeys.
Jerry is trying not to laugh throughout the series
Jerry's inability to keep a straight face is to this day still one of the best things about this show. He's like the polar opposite of a method actor. 😁
I just love the apartment scene and all the hilarious names he calls Seinfeld 'joyboy' 😂😂
I don’t know how either one of them made it through that scene!
Bookman stepped into Jerry's apartment a TV character and stepped out an OG TV legend
keeping it real
Actually he already was a TV legend.
thats right 🤏🏼 JOY BOY
Except he was already a legend before doing Seinfeld.
@@chadnoland5438 way to repeat the second comment
Bookman appeared in one scene and he still managed to become one of the most iconic Seinfeld characters
He was in at least 3 scenes, Jerry's apartment, at the library when Kramer and the girl were there after it closed, and in the library at the end when Jerry gave him the check.
One episode
@@Virttreks I figured that's what he meant to say.
@@giraffesareselfish9563 i WAS GONNA SAY THAT TOO
@@Droogs The horrible finale doesn't count.
"you and your goodtime buddies" 🤣😂
How they made it through "I gotta flash for ya joy boy" I will never know
Party time is over 🤣
Jerry and his good time buddies really should know better.
What a masterpiece of acting from Mr. Bookman. Legendary.
A bit part for one episode and he went all out for it.
That is probably the funniest two minute segment in television history.
Mr Bookman, the library cop, is hands-down my favorite Seinfeld guest character. No matter how many times I watch this episode it still cracks me up. His acting is just superb! ❤😂
Mr. Bookman was the greatest single one off character on the show.
With Tor Eckman getting the silver.
That we can list 40 to 50 or more is a huge compliment to this show
Brilliant casting
gold to Bookman and Philip Baker Hall and the Silver to Crazy Joe Devola
On any show!
Mr. Bookman basically told Jerry he was a real “fancy boy”.
Wait till he finds out about Jerry's European Carryall.
Call 'em "soy boys" today.
He's also an anti dentite.
Mr Bookman's dialogue delivery is Superb 😍
Philip Baker Hall, brilliant. Seinfeld, thanks for stepping back and letting Hall's genius shine.
Yes
Third time I've watched this after Philip Baker Hall, aka Mr. Bookman, died back in June, 2022 and it never gets stale or old. His amazing monologue calling Jerry all sorts of names is hilarious. I got a flash for you joy boy, if Dragnet's Joe Friday ever had a twin brother, it would be Mr. Bookman.
If Joe Friday were a librarian.
Someone had to quote the joy boy line, thank you. God, this whole moment is just too perfectly hilarious, so much awesome created for an overdue book. Seinfeld knows what “timeless” is, that’s for certain!
The inspector stole the show. Not even Kramer and George could over shadow the inspector.
Republicans in 2022
“Well I got a flash for ya Joy Boy!” 🤣
"After twenty five years we don't call them delinquent."
"What do you call them?"
"Criminals!".... Joe Bookman.
The marvelous Philip Baker Hall. A remarkable, versatile actor with a sad, world-weary, expressive face. Best known for his roles in the films of P.T. Anderson. RIP.
Bookman is one of the greatest TV characters of all time
It never ceased to amaze me how actors were so talented and the writing was so good that they could only appear in only one scene and become Seinfeld and TV icons. Mr. Bookman, "Timmy Double Dip", The rental car desk lady, Elaine's Father, the list is endless....
The parking lot attendant...brilliant...."Please bear with us"....
Elaine's father...whoa...that guy was a real life thug, no kidding.
Elaine Dad was great played him self just like in every movie he's in makes it look easy cousa it was
this guy was the guest of all guests. The timing and delivery... pure perfection.
One of the best things about Seinfeld is, creators were spot-on with all lead characters, recurring characters and cameos 👌
But Puddy was the most BORING character ever in a sit-com, perhaps. Just BORING. Every time he appears on the screen and opens his mouth - I have to fight sleep. Even his voice is boring. No comedic timing, never says anything remotely funny - and no chemistry or believability with Elaine.
@@FigaroHey Nah Puddy was a mood. Him saying "that's right" is enough to crack me up
@@FigaroHey I'd say he's the most boring in seinfeld tho, but still funny lol. At least his interactions with elaine were pretty funny
@@FigaroHey Puddy was hilarious
@@prateekhegde8560 Puddy is an acquired taste. I find him funny in his own weird way.
This is such great comedy. You can see Jerry trying not to laugh throughout the entire encounter with Bookman.
Even at around the 3:45 mark, the actor playing Bookman is clearly trying not to break character.
He did that a lot.
really? you can see it? wow. glad you were here to save the day
@@jdsartre9520 still wish he provided timestamps
When Bookman says, "you think this is funny?", I have a feeling that was an ab libbed line to cover up Jerry's smiling.
3:04 Well, let me tell you something, funny boy!
3:26 Let me give you a hint, junior!
4:06 Well, I got a flash for you, joy boy!
Kramer tapping into the library… good man.
This episode its one of the best. The line between Jerry and Mr Bookman is epic. R.I.P Mr Bookman💔
This to me is possibly the funniest character ever to appear on the show and I include the regular cast in that. He was brilliant. He didn’t break character even when Jerry was about to lose it right in front of his face.
2:48 Jerry nearly broke character 😂
4:44 Mr Bookman has had enough!!
2:29 ... I've heard it be said that rock was never his bag!
" I'll be all over you , like a pitbull on a poodle !" ....Love Mr Bookman.
😂😂😂😂
‘Mr. Bookman is out on a case. ‘ Yeah, a BOOK CASE!’ Lol 😝
Bookman's swift hand movements are hilarious
"That's like an ice cream man named Cone!" When I first heard that line years ago, I laughed for an hour. Great writing for this whole episode when the series was starting to find itself.
It seems very unlikely, but our family physician when I was growing up was Dr. Lancet, and the secretary at the high school I attended was Miss Carbon.
Well Mr. Bookman has heard them all.
There was an orthodontist in Chambersburg PA named Toothman
This show was firing in all cylinders. It was so good we knew it was special even back then.
One of my all time favorites! Philip Baker Hall is so perfect! An amazing performance. Don’t know if he got an Emmy, but he deserved one.
I bought a jar of Folgers freeze dried coffee because of Mr. Bookman!
Betcha still got it in the back of the cupboard.
Yes!
Put it in the cupboard ya forget about it
i stole tropic of cancer because of bookman.
@jeffclement2468 it's freeze dried, it lasts forever.
this is why Seinfeld is the best show ever - side characters are amazing
Standing ovation. Impeccable writing
RIP Philip Baker Hall he just passed away recently.
Jerry can barely keep a straight face. Legendary.
One of the best skits. Jerry about to crack up the whole time. 😂
Greatest guest appearance in the history of television.
Jerry: that is one tough monkey at 4:57 lol
This was an excellent performance! Jerry was practically speechless 😂
He had no speech.
This actor shouldve won an Emmy for this part.
Love that Hall got nice "Exit" applause. Beautiful.
the conversation with mr. Bookman is my single favorite scene of the show. it has Larry David written all over it.
Larry Charles actually wrote it but he was in tune with the Larry David universe, he knew what buttons to push.
Bookman should have some type of award for that performance...😂
I wish they had more Bookman episodes! What a character and amazing acting by Mr. Hall
The advice for Folger's crystal, I kept after all these years. Bookman is where I got it from.
Besides those most memorable lines, the hand gestures and body language are so hilariously on point. ❤🤣👌
wow what a performance! wasnt expecting that..well like they say, never judge a bookman by its cover
Mr. Bookman is the single best guest bit in the entire series.
Nobody on this planet can replace Michael Richards in that role of Cosmo. He is gold.
The actor who played Bookman was awesome
Bookman took that scene stolen, package, and delivered
...and fined it for and collected the full amount
ala Postal employee Newman no doubt. Postage due.
Bookman was awesome
Perfect acting by bookman Jerry found his match. Also loved moyel in briss episode too funny
Love this episode!! This 1:50 scene has to be in the hall of fame of any sitcom scene section. If they got through this in one take I’d be astonished
They didn't.
Jerry could barely keep it together. Who could blame him?
It's a parody of a 60s police drama called Dragnet, which often did dialogue scenes like this.
@@hugolafhugolafI had either read or heard that it was one take. The only "mistake" was Bookman using the word, "flaunting" conventions. "Flouting" would make more sense in the context.
The casting with the Librarian was 👌.
Very attractive woman.
Yet discreet.
Never saw the full episode. Do know why the librarian went to Kramer'a apt? Did a relationship develop there.
@@light279
He's Kramer
No, for real.
He dropped by and talked with her.
He's really good at connecting with people and getting them to trust him.
Plus, his buttocks are sublime.
She never was on the show again.
@@light279 Yes
@@fighttheevilrobots3417 Thanks.
@@light279 Kramer has the Kravorka.
The bit I love is the woman in the corridor darting into Kramer's apartment for some reason.
Always thought that diluted his great exit a bit.
It makes sense but the performance he just gave deserves 100% of the spotlight
Wasn't she the librarian?
@@SkinnerRobot Yes! That's even funnier now.
What a great cameo. I missed this episode, that sort of parody would have been super original back in 91, hilarious. 😂
This is a quintessential Seinfeld episode.
Oh man, if only Bookman knew what was going on in New York libraries now…
Oh, that's been going on for many decades. The only difference now is they film it and post it online.
send more tears
This guy needed his own show:
Bookman-NYPL
Jerry couldn't hold it in. He was in awe.
You know people say they can only imagine a certain actor playing an iconic role. This man could have played Principal Strickland in Back To The Future even better than the original
With all the re-occurring characters in this show, it stuns me Mr. Bookman was only in this episode
The librarian got a little hot and flustered when she found out Seinfeld had read Henry Miller's Tropic of Cancer. :)
Yea, I know what you’re thinking; “what’s this guy making such a big stink about old library books?”
👈!!! Lemme give you a hint, junior! 😠
I hope Kramer takes a note from Jerry's experience and returns that librarian on time.
Nickel a day for 20 years is 365 bucks. But for Kramer of course its 50 thousand dollars
$365.25, accounting for leap years.
Compound interest
The first true classic of the series. Countless laugh out loud lines, especially from Kramer. One of the best guest stars of the series too
Kramer was so fascinted with his name
Always thought the librarian was incredibly cute
same
yeah, i had a thing for bookman, too.
maybe that turns you on, Seinfeld. maybe that's how y'get your kicks. You and
your good-time buddies. Well I got a flash for ya, joy-boy. Party time
is over! 🤣🤣🤣
One of the funniest scenes in comic history - anywhere! Mr. Bookman is a legend. RIP Sir. 🙏
Joy boy made me laugh though.
'I got a flash for you Joy Boy!'
4:04 - I just came for the "YOU AND YOUR GOOD TIMES BUDDIES" line!
Bookman....an absolute tour de force performance...
I need to see if there is a blooper reel for this scene. I wouldn't be surprised if Bookman adlibbed a little.
"Let me tell you something, funny boy!"
"Hello!! HELLO!!!! .....hello."
Mr. Bookman is my unabashed hero
My only complaint about the Bookman scolding is that it was too short.
What a classic scene.
Excellent. This is probably one of the best bits on the whole series.
That's what the world needs, more tough library cops.
Bookmans should have won an Emmy
Man bookman is the best
This is classic stuff that you don't see anymore.
The man is passionately serious about books!
One of my favorite episodes, Mr Bookman was a great character.
Why is this scene so compelling that I watch it in its entirety each time it arrives in my feed? Is it the epitaphs Mr bookman has for Jerry, like Joy-boy? Is it the high and mighty narrative of social degradation that escalated to the threat? Is it the serious eyes that ask for Folgers crystals? Was this whole scene an add for Folger’s a sponsor of the show? Did the NYPL user rate spike once this aired? So many questions. Tough monkey
I seem to remember an interview that Seinfeld did where he said this scene in his apartment with Bookman was the only time they ever had to stitch a scene together in post because he could not get all the way through without laughing. BTW, Philip Baker Hall was a serious character actor who was in many movies. I think he died a couple of years ago.
He died 2 months ago.
@@bbmcrae Time really flies!
Makes sense. Jerry laughed throughout. They probably gave trying to get through it without the laughing and just left it in.
Sure go ahead laugh if you want to 🤣
One of the funniest bits in history of sitcoms.
Bookman was probably the funniest guest guy in the entire series. He was one serious character. Close to the soup guy.
underrated joke of Kramer's math being grossly incorrect. at a nickel a day, Jerry would have owed $365, not $50k.
