1. "The Jimmy," because it was just so wrong.
That's the episode where some of the benefactors of ARC (the Association of Retarded Citizens) mistakenly believe Kramer is mentally challenged and invite him as the guest of honor at a dinner hosted by Mel Torme. Wrong, yet hilarious.

3. That was hilarious-when Mel Torme sings to Kramer
I just die laughing.

4. Mine's the one with the Frogger machine
Don't remember the official title, but it's my favorite.

11. "Elaine, is that cake still...with you?"
"Do you know what happens to a butter-based frosting after about 60 years? In that case, I think what you're about to go through is punishment enough."

2. Utterly impossible to choose
I love that one, though. Also love "The Marine Biologist," the Keith Hernandez episodes and the one with George in the hospital and seeing the holistic healer.

6. I Have Lots of Favorites Too
but the one that always lands me in stitches is 'The Little Jerry' - where Kramer gets a 'chicken' for the eggs that turns out to be a rooster - a fighting cock. The subplots in there crack me up too...Jerry's bounced 'clown' check, George's prison girlfriend who breaks out, and Elaine's boyfriend who shaves his head but decides to let it grow out to placate Elaine - only to find that he's gone bald in the meantime.

10. That show was great when Larry David was there.
I could have done without the last two seasons though, when it stopped being about life's little nauances and just got bizarre (i.e. Newman trying to eat Kramer).

15. My favorites:
"The Drake" where they park in the handicapped spot when going to get the big screen TV for the Drake


I cant remember the name of it, but its when Jerry & George go to LA to get Kramer, & then Kramer is arrested as being a serial killer- then Jerry & George let the real killer go by accident.

The one where Elaine makes out with the guy @ the office party & she gets embarassed so she ends up pretending its her boyfriend... then she HAS to nurse him thru withdrawl......... "Away from the curtains! Away from the curtains!! Use your bucket!"

16. I would describe his reaction as restrained jubilation
hehe
I would lose that contest so quickly. That was a great episode. I have no idea what my favorite is though.
