My dad is a huge Seinfeld fan and a retired industrial brass alloy salesman. When he bought his “retirement sports car”, I tried to talk him into getting the vanity plate: BRASSMAN.
That would have been hilarious. "Hey, the BRASSMANs in town!" "Yeah, damned right!" LOL. People would understand that joke. Security would ask what you're doing in the facility parking lot, he could just say his name and "Salesman of the year."
I've seen this episode countless times, laughed at it every time I watched it, and I never noticed until now that he's mad at Kramer for stealing his move and not groping his wife. That's what makes Seinfeld timeless.
The moment when Kramer's head shakes when he see the boat that says ASSMAN. Priceless. Classic comedy... Not a word was said, but his physical comedy told the story.
RIP to Jerry Stiller who passed away today at the age of 82. He was in so many great episodes of Seinfeld. Too many to name but this was my favorite. Frank Costanza was an unforgettable character because of Jerry Stiller.
I absolutely roll on the floor every time I see this scene---I agree---the "stopped short" rant by Frank Costanza is one of his most hilarious moments!!
Yesterday, I saw the clip where he finds the Korean woman he once loved, but lost because he wouldn't take off his shoes. But he does his move on her where he stops short and she becomes offended and wants to go home.
"Cosmo Kramer, you ARE the Assman!" "No I'm not the Assman" "Well, as far as the state of New York is concerned, you ARE" That may be my favourite dialogue in the whole show.
Fun fact: Proctologists have a very good sense of humor. If you meet one at a party, park yourself down next to them. You will hear the funniest stories.
RIP Lou, who played the real Assman. Thanks for this hilarious scene sir, and your awesome 50 year career! Thanks for everything, we will always enjoy your work and legacy! Thanks for being a gentleman, a great soul, and for all your amazing roles over the decades! You will live on in our hearts through your work forever. Godspeed, Assman!
I'm not sure why some of these actors never got other roles. Everyone from the DMV employee, the security guard, the Dr, even to the soup Nazi and his cashier. They nailed really small roles.
I luv how the black Cop gives Kramer the "Oh okay Doc" as he looks at the assman plate...perfectly delivered...even the extras in this show were great.
Yeah. Typically a doctor doesn't drive such a beater and he didn't recognize the car. Kramer fast talked his way out of it, the kind of thing he does 5-6 times a day...lol.
You know how hard it is to get a "ASSMAN" vanity plate!?! You're going to have to settle for "455M4N" or "A55M4N" or "ASSM4N" or anything but "ASSMAN" - that plate is hard to get.
2:35 watching Julie trying to keep it together by digging her nails into her hand and watching her twitch is damn hysterical along with Jerry Stiller's performance. "Hmmm, I STOP SHORT!!"
Dick Assman Richard "Dick" Assman (born ca. 1934 in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada) is a Saskatchewan gas station owner whose name propelled him to celebrity status across North America for four months in 1995. Assman, who co-owned a Petro-Canada outlet at Victoria Square Mall in Regina, was discovered by David Letterman, who was amused by his name. Assman was introduced on July 24, 1995, on the Late Show with David Letterman, where he was a nightly feature for about a month. During this time, he was known as "Assman the Gasman".[1] Live field units in Canada interviewed him for the show. Over the weeks, Joe Namath declared himself an "Ass-maniac", while Assman received a musical tribute from Tony Orlando[2] on Letterman:
I have this plate on the front of my car. People laugh all the time. A lot of them think it's actually real. They're like, "you're from New York?" I tell'em, "no, that's a vanity plate from Seinfeld." Lol
the backfire on the car is just legendary, and the car rocking and stopping in the doctors spot just hilarious!!! he doesn't have a doctors parking tag or anything, the license plate gets him in!!! what a show!!
Greatest television episode of any series ever. Fusilli Jerry, the Assman, proctologists telling jokes 'Million to one shot doc' PLUS the Bro & Manzier. In ONE 25 minute episode. EPIC
@@kele7535 Tell me, how many times have you found talking to people only to see the back of their heads 5 seconds in to your boring fake woke nonsense story?
He drives in the parking spot the same way he behaves. Erratic. Plus, every actor, even in small parts like the security guard was great casting. Same as the Soup Nazi's cashier. Brilliant actors, or great casting directors. Either way, this show is my favorite to this day.
"Cosmo Kramer. You are the Assman." This woman was in one episode and she nailed the timing on one of the best lines in the series.
The doctor was perfect too
One of the best lines in TV
What I wouldn't give to see the audition tapes for this episode, lol!
@@RelwarctheMightysame here
She didn’t have a line, but the soup nazi’s assistant was perfect with her bread snatch!
the wink at the end is legend
so true
haha yup
The million to one shot doc. Million to one. Or whatever he said at the end makes it even more legendary. I think it's this episode
Yep
Classic

I love the fact George's dad is pissed at Kramer stealing his move instead of groping his wife.
Jerry, hm, stop short, that's a good move; is even better
The best part is how easily he gets diverted to the name of the BRO
I've seen this episode countless times, laughed at it every time I watched it, and I never noticed until now that he's mad at Kramer for stealing his move and not groping his wife. That's what makes Seinfeld timeless.
Well it is a good move.
I just find it fascinating how much George takes an interest into whether Kramer got his plates.
I love the lady's outright refusal to even try to get it corrected
Lol. Even the characters who had 3 seconds on screen in Seinfeld were excellent. Like the "thsorry" guy who crushed Elaine's foot with his cane.
That’s the dmv for ya
Sir... the State of New York does not MAKE mistakes. Now, if you'll excuse me... NEEEEEXT!!!!
She was about to go on break
Dr. Cosmo Kramer....Proctology. That cracks me up all the time thats my favorite part
Clay Bransom me too, first time I saw it and always. Hilarious
Right there with ya hahahaha
Right there with ya hahahaha
+Clay Bransom He'd be a very interesting proctologist.
+Seamus Kennefick Agreed
I love how the guard immediately backs off once Kramer tell's him he's a proctologist
Once he sees the plate lmao
Funny stuff
Rest in peace, Jerry Stiller AKA George Costanza's father
*cantstandya

He was great as Carrie’s dad on King of Queens also
Ben Stiller rl father not to forget
The moment when Kramer's head shakes when he see the boat that says ASSMAN. Priceless. Classic comedy... Not a word was said, but his physical comedy told the story.
I always thought that I was the only one who appreciated that part. Hysterical. Kramer is like a living Muppet with the way he moves and reacts.
So true!
@@stormtruppo You’re right about that
I think the audience laughed for his move before they saw the name of the boat.

I could've sworn that it was longer ago than that. 2020 has taken years and its still June
Festivus was my favorite Frank episode. This is a close second. Serenity Now! rounds out my top 3.
He was 92
Jerry made it to 92.
92 idiot
0:53-0:56 is the reason this show is genius. The small detail of him driving the car exactly the same way as he walks/talks kills me.
Good observation!
I love that.
S0 true
Not to mention mention it goes along with him “stopping short”
And of course the suspension is worn out
seinfeld is gold in any millennium lmfao
Newmaniel!
It's gold Tomas, gold!
the 'stopped short' bit is so fucking legendary, thanks to an otherworldly performance by Stiller
And Estelle!
the way he crooks his leg in. incredible
I absolutely roll on the floor every time I see this scene---I agree---the "stopped short" rant by Frank Costanza is one of his most hilarious moments!!
It works too. I did it twice in one sitting with my girlfriend and I did it with a straight face and she loved it and laughed each time.
Yesterday, I saw the clip where he finds the Korean woman he once loved, but lost because he wouldn't take off his shoes. But he does his move on her where he stops short and she becomes offended and wants to go home.
"HEY ASSMAN"!!
"YEAH YOU GOT THAT STRAIGHT!!"
I love Kramer
Well he is in fact the assman as far as NY is concerned hahaha 🤣
"Cosmo Kramer, you ARE the Assman!"
"No I'm not the Assman"
"Well, as far as the state of New York is concerned, you ARE"
That may be my favourite dialogue in the whole show.
Dialogue timing and execution. All at 💯
For me it's between this one and the soup nazi.
Rule number 1 never shake hands with a proctologist.
***** lol 18 likes
no way!
I thought the same thing. LOl
I suck their fingers just to be safe.
Steven Webb - Rule #2, if they give you a thermometer, don’t put it in your mouth.

Thanks for the advice Kramer
"A million-in-one shot, doc."
Sounds like your talking out your ass
If someone ever tells me that Friends is funnier than Seinfeld, I will show them this clip as scientific proof that it is not.
How in the Hell would anyone ever say friends is more funnier than Seinfeld.
eh, any clip would do.
Had that argument a couple days ago. Friends is useless imo. Zzzzzz
Hmm I don’t really think in same league
bizophone friends isn’t funny at all
RIP Lou Cutell (1930-2021): the Assman! Six decades of TV and film, quite a legacy.
This show will NEVER be topped. It's hysterical everytime
"he had to use corkscrew pasta" * everyone shifts uncomfortably in their seat. XD

"One in a million shot, doc! One in a million!" I love this episode.
RIP Lou Cutell (aka the Assman.) Thanks for the laughs!
I love how Frank Costanza is more pissed off that Kramer "stole his move" than groped his wife.
No, it was Seinfeld that was upset someone (Tully?) stole his move. Frank was there because he touched his wife.
2:35 watching Julie trying to keep it together by digging her nails into her hand and watching her twitch is damn hysterical along with Jerry Stiller's performance. "Hmmm, I STOP SHORT!!"
i died a little from laughing at this part!
+gutz1981 Honestly no idea how they didn't lose it every episode.
It's Julia not Julie
There were quite a few scenes where either Jerry or Julia were on the verge of cracking up
2:36 she chuckles actualy, then scene is changed
This whole episode is loaded with great stuff…assman, fussily Jerry, the bro/manssiere….legendary
I love how he references “the” Assman, just like “the” Batman.
I love how the different stories meet at the end.
