I just saw Jerry say that they wrote George's speech the night before shooting and handed the new script to Jason and said "learn this now". Jerry's shocked reaction in the scene is not acting, he said, but his amazement that George was nailing the speech in one take
Nice job picking that up. I like how he had some off-camera lines (including Steinbrenner) throughout the seasons and a cameo or two (when Kramer gets arrested for being a serial killer)
Haha, I was going to point that out but came looking for that comment. Back then, we didn't know his voice yet. It's so obvious now. Alternate ending, George pulls out the golfball, and it goes straight to the Curb Your Enthusiasm music.
Although informal, experts do refer to them as fish. For example the gray whale is termed the "devil fish" because its speed and erratic behavior make it hard to catch.

They said they got permission from Titleist to say that line. You can tell that Richards had to wait for the laughter to subside before saying his line.
Jason Alexander spoke most part of the clip. For almost 3 minutes. Just with 1 dialogue, Michael almost stole the whole scene. Seinfeld is all about overachiever artists outperforming each other.
@@user-ht7jt2gr5j until you realize that Jason Alexander learned this whole monologue in 10 min and preformed it on the first try. That’s significantly more impressive than a voice crack
@@mrfahrenheit677 - As I said in my earlier post. I think both are amazing overachievers. It would be blasphemous to Rate them in my opinion. But, if you think one is better than other.... 👍
It’s a way of phrasing and idea as done in films of the 1950’s-60’s, an “over embellishment” of the story for dramatic effect - usually used in the crime/drama genre. So funny to see it used here.
@@tennisee10 and AmyT - thats how old maritime stories (such as Moby Dick) were told, with lots of exaggeration to increase the drama and sense of wonder. the opening line "the sea was angry that day my friends" is another example of the same style.
I don't know what's more impressive, that they wrote this monologue rapidly, right there on the set, or that Alexander performed it perfectly in 1 take
I can’t tell you how many times this line is used by my mates , when it’s been a extremely tough day on the golf course , “ The sea was angry that day , my friends .....”
The actors have said that the audience laughter at the end of the monologue was the loudest and most hilarious in the history of the show. It was the biggest and epic laugh I had of all the "Seinfeld" episodes (and there are a lot of funny moments).
I heard that the audience roaring laughter in the episode where Elaine is walking out and says her mother "Laid out her panties for her" was epic too. LOL
The moment when he pulls out the Titleist, I am so overjoyed and thrilled and amused. Such a beautifully put and written part! That soliloquy at the end is brilliant! Only Larry David can write it and only George Constanza can deliver it.
Story has it that it was both written and then memorized by Jason in a span of an hour at the very end of the day's shoot. Only one take. The original ending was very different.
@@hd-xc2lz I know what you're saying but you have one part wrong. Larry David wrote it at the last minute and Jason had maybe 10mins to remember it and do the take. They did in very few takes or maybe just one and that was it
This is probably the most incredible and extraordinary ending of any sitcom episode ever. The writing, acting, sense of irony, and atmosphere are perfectly timed and brilliant. This will stand the test of time for decades to come...
Larry David wrote the ending monologue in front of the audience. They needed something to really strike the audience. Alexander learned the lines on the spot andwhat we saw was the first take. It's also the longest laugh the show had.
@@smoothALOE Yeah, I definitely agree. Can you believe he never actually won at all? Fuck the Emmys to oblivion for that. He was great in The Hamptons, but when you compare that performance to this one, the submission choice really makes no sense.
@@alexolds9840 he had lots of great performances that season. I’d say the finale was right up there, too: The Opposite… but that monologue is one of the all-time greats in the history of sitcoms. He deserved more credit for making it come to life.
After such an epic story and twist in the end. Alexanders delivery of “she told me to go to hell and I took the bus home.” Is the quintessential Seinfeld brilliance. On to the next episode.....
One of my top Seinfeld moments was the scene at Monks when Jerry tells George "Now...I should tell you, that at this point....she's under the impression that you're a uhhh Marine Biologist." The entire dialogue was hilarious. The puzzled look of bewilderment and confusion on George's face was priceless. Lmao!!!
How did Michael Richards make that face? How do you just make yourself look so stunned and guilty on command? I can’t stop watching it. And for the timing of his lines he waits for the crowd to stop laughing and it makes it that much funnier.
"Is that a Titelist?" I've seen it over and over, and the comic energy is still there undiminished ... this is the hallmark of great comedy writing ... this is the signature of the Fawlty Towers!
3:43-4:17 One of the best laughs of the entire series, is awesome to hear the credits music with the laughs. Everyone burst out laughing, the production crew, the Studio audience, as well as hearing people applausing and whistling
"at that moment!!! I was a Marine biologist!" Such a great line. I use it any time I tell a story about a time when I did something really good. "I tell you at that moment!!!! I was a _________(fill in the blank)!!!!!"
Truly the best of the best comedy moments in TV history. It is ironic that Seinfeld as a series barely survived in ratings during its first four seasons only reaching rating success after being moved to fill the Thur night spot vacated when Cheers ended! I don't think in today's social media swamp of how people connect we will ever see the likes of the comedic genius and acting experienced in Sienfeld or Cheers again. And that is a pity!
Jason Alexander talks about this scene in his Archive of American Television interview. Apparently, George walking into the ocean was supposed to be the end of the show, but the scene didn't get the laughs they wanted so they came up with this last coffee shop scene on the fly. Nailed it
There's only two final sitcom scenes that have left me on the floor, weeping from laughing uncontrollably at a pay-off, this is one of them. The other is from Arrested's third season, with GOB's tiny model town, Tobias' mole costume and George Michael swooping in on his jetpack. Both are a perfect culmination of various separate plots, and though they tie them together differently (George's quiet cafe monologue versus AD's big, farcical Gozilla parody), they inhabit the same part of my brain.
I still remember watching this for the first time with that second of anticipation wondering what was in George’s hand, then just howling with laughter at “Is it a Titleist?”
You see Michael Richards is fighting bursting out laughing. It makes the scene even funnier that he is barely holding it together. It reminds me of Tim Conway cracking everyone up on the Carol Burnett Show.
I just spent two years living by the sea in Italy in a very windy place, and I said, "The sea was angry that day, my friends" out loud at least once per week!
For those who don't yet know the story of this scene, it was added at the last minute. Jason's last scene was supposed to be George walking out into the surf to save the whale. But Larry and the other writers weren't satisfied with the audience reaction. So they quickly huddled together, came up with the golf ball idea and handed a new script to the cast. They literally had MINUTES to memorize their new lines, do a quick run-through (temporarily hidden from the audience), then emerged to do the scene. Jason says it was the longest sustained audience laughter of the entire series.
The writing in this episode is beyond funny. The show had some really funny seasons once it found itself. This episode, the Opposite, the Hamptons, the Pilot, etc...hysterical.
That first person you hear laugh out loud when the audience sees it's a golf ball 🤣🤣. And kudos to Michael Richards holding it together to deliver the immortal response, "Is that a Titleist?". Classic.
@@user-ht7jt2gr5j Yeah, it probably would have been CGI on a TV show budget, which would have looked awful. Better to be left unseen as it was unneeded for the gag.
2:362:41 The sea was angry 😡 that day my friends! Like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli! 😄😄😄 Like that quote just because I learned it from the seinimation from the season 7 DVD trailer on the talladega nights DVD before watching all of Seinfeld.
