Jerry Seinfeld is *51* Today !!! Let's celebrate, what's your
favorite Seinfeld moment ?

Mine: From the 'shrinkage' episode, Elaine "They shrink!?" then tells the boys she doesn't know how they walk around with those things.

5. i couldn't pinpoint one moment, but
when they came out on dvd, we rented the first three seasons. i thought the entire third season was a scream. i can't even tell you what was so funny, but they were very clever episodes. my kids even liked them! i like the way they interweave different parts of everyone's dilemmas and finally they all come together in the end in irony. great writing.

11. "The Library Cop"
Edited on Fri Apr-29-05 12:09 PM by terrya
When Jerry is discovered to have not returned a copy of "Tropic of Cancer" to the New York Public Library for 20 some years, well, hilarity ensues. :-)

MRS.ARM:I love it.

MR. ARM:Me too.

22. It's my favorite part of the episode
Phillip Baker Hall was brilliant as the Library Cop. I loved the speech.

And it's obvious at a couple of points that Jerry had a hard time keeping a straight face. :-)

12. One episode I love is where Kramer wants to become Puppet leader
of the Retirement Community, while Jerry's dad pulls the strings.

And I love the one where the guy steals Elaine's TV guide, which is really Frank Costanza's and hilarity ensues

21. I love "The Wig Master"
When George and Susan have her friend staying with him - he's the wig master for the touring company of the Joseph & the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

"Imagine liking wigs so much that you make a career out of it."

That's the same one where Kramer and George park at Jiffy Park and the owners are using the cars for prostitution. :rofl:

24. Top 10 Quotes
10. "Where are the cameras?" Jim Fowler, on the Merv Griffin set that Kramer dragged in.

9. "But I don't wanna be a pirate!" Jerry and his puffy shirt.

8. "I'm out there Jerry and loving every minute of it." Kramer and no undergarments.

7. "Now I can peek in and see if anyone is waiting to jack me with a sock full of pennies." Kramer and his reverse peephole.

6. "Naked hair brushing - good. Naked crouching - bad." Jerry and his "free" girlfriend. Remember her fixing the bike?

5. "It's the summer of George!" George, declaring this summer as his own.

4. "Let me just finish my coffee, and then we'll go watch them cut the fat bastard up." Seinfeld to Kramer, just before going to "The Junior Mint" operation.

3. "Not that there's anything wrong with that!" Jerry to the NYU reporter.

2. "Maybe the dingo ate your baby." Elaine at the dinner party.

1. "Wait a minute. You mean to say that you drugged a woman so you could take advantage of her toys?" Kramer can't comprehend why anyone would give someone turkey and boxed wine to ensure a restful sleep while Jerry would play with her "G.I. Joes"...

25. Solicitor: Hi would you like to change your long distance.
Jerry: I don't know. Why don't you give me your home phone number and I'll talk to you there.
Solicitor: Sorry, I can't do that.
Jerry: Oh so you don't want me to call you at home.
Solicitor: No sir.
Jerry: Well, now you know how I feel.

Hang-up.

36. Elaine get's set up on a date with one of Jerry's friends
"He took it out."
"It?"
"It."
"Out?"
"Out."

It's the same episode where Kramer talks Mickey into "heightening".

40. Believe it or not George isn't at home ... where could he be ...
believe it or not I'm not home. The message George left on his answering maching because that girl wanted to break up with him and he wanted to wait until after they went to some event to break up. Can't say it's my fav - but it's very memorable

And I'd quickly substitute my name for George's at the appropriate point. My husband used to have people call my phone to listen to it!

42. When Jerry told George about the "dirty" talk by his girlfriend.
They were at the diner and George was holding a dispenser. When Jerry, whispering to George, got to the good part, George inadvertantly sent an arc of catsup flying into the air.

Besides the moments already mentioned, I liked it when Elaine told Jerry she'd faked it all during their relationship. Jerry said something like, "What about the moaning, the groaning, the panting, the writhing? Elaine (checking it off in the air) said heartlessly: "Uh, Fake. Fake. Fake. Fake."

46. The one where Elaine
has to sleep on the sofa bed in Jerry's parent's condo in Fla. She took the muscle relaxers and was yelling "STELLA" in the movie theater. That's the same one where Jerry burst the blood vessels around his eyes from snorkling..
