THe episode where he and Kramder are playing Risk, and Karemer's car gets towed?  

I wait that whole episode just to see Newman sprint after Kramer down the street.  Surprising amount of spring in his step!

Is he still running his reality tour?

Think he stopped a few years ago. I see him around a lot during the warmer months, think he hits Miami when it's cold. But he's not even in the top ten characters in our complex (two 46 story towers next to the theater district, 90% of the residents are in the performing arts.)

 
Another great scene that I don't think has been mentioned was when Elaine's boyfriend "tried something new with her" then couldn't play the saxophone :lol:

 
Watched the Seinfeld Chronicles pilot the other night...the one that starts with the 'button too high' conversation and the first female character who got axed...noticed George said something about doing 'the opposite' of what his instincts are telling him.  Sein and David must have started at the beginning with a ton of great ideas.

 
Wish her the very best but still can't help but think of the episode where she got Kramer's buddy to take her Christmas card picture which ended up showing a bare nipple poking out. Of course she had already mailed the batch out before it was noticed.

I forget if that's the same episode where she throws George's toupee out the window. And then doesn't she grab his head and rub it on her chest? :lol:

I don't remember if that is all one episode but the George toupee episode and that scene in particular is awesome. 

 
Was in LA this week with a co-Seinfeld addict...and even though The Trip are two of the worst eps, we found ourselves quoting as usual.

’Excuse me, where are we?’  ‘Earth.’

’Do we know where the 101 is? Do we know where the 170 is? Do we know where the 134 is?

 
Re-watched "The Rye" last night.  That look on Jerry's face when he's running down the street after taking the rye from the old bag gets me every time.  And then, as previously mentioned, the saxophone guy unable to play after working over Elaine is gold.

Best episode is The Jimmy imo. It's great all the way through, but Kramer in the locker room with his mouth shot up with novocaine is the funniest thing I've ever seen on TV.

Imagine if that episode was new in 2017. You'd have some complaining about the the two Kramer scenes (the one in the locker room and at the end when Mel Torme is singing).

Right up there with the dinner party part where he made fun of people who owned a pony.

Steiner thinks that's his favorite episode too. He still finds ways to incorporate Jimmy's schtick in everyday situations. 

 
Picking my favorite Seinfeld episode is almost impossible.  I love so many of them and I don't think there is one I don't care to watch.  I watch the show almost daily.

I agree, it is extremely difficult.  Seasons 4 and 5 alone are loaded with just one unbelievable episode after another (and 3 and 6 are not far behind).

I honestly don't even know what episodes go with what season.  I just watch whatever TBS is showing or any other channel that carries the show.  For a long time TBS had a fantastic schedule for me after work but now it sucks.  I do like watching an episode when I go home for lunch now though.

I've seen them all enough to where I can tell immediately. 

Seasons 1 and 2 were good, but you can tell they were getting their feet to see what worked and refining the storytelling. 

Season 3 is where it really started to come together, resulting in many great episodes.

Seasons 4 and 5 were the pinnacle. The two greatest comedic seasons of any TV show ever.

Season 6 was just a hair below those two, but still magnificent, and jam packed with many more classics.

Season 7 was pretty great, although the season long arc of George's engagement doesn't hold up as well at times when rewatching them so many times (and the presence of Kathy Griffin makes The Doll unwatchable). 

Seasons 8 and 9 were both really good, and there are some great episodes in there, but the loss of Larry David as a co-writer was evident.  The humor became a bit too slap-sticky at times and the Kramer character became almost a caricature of himself at times.

Kramer was the one that took the picture. 

The beauty of all of these episodes is that there are so many stories in one episode that all tie in together in some way.  When re-watching episodes I am always blown away with how many times I say "I can't believe that was in this episode too".
