Sorry, I liked it

🙂 Liked it

Fans enjoyed the finale despite wanting more callbacks to minor characters like Mulva and others from the show's history.

The only thing that disappointed me was that they didn't put Mulva/Delores on the stand to clear up her name.

I liked it, too. It was very funny at parts, but it was different than usual, which didn't make it so predictable.

I liked it too! I loved the part where the Judge's name turned out to be Arthur Vandalay! I also would have liked to see Mulva, and Sue Ellen Mische too. I also would have liked to see Bania, Mickey, J. Peterman etc. get some *lines* instead of just having them sit in the courtroom looking disgusted everytime something new was revealed about the "New York Four." But all in all, I liked it.

I would have liked to see Jerry, Kramer, George and Elaine get some lines! BEing the stars of the show, they really weren't given a whole hell of a lot to do, especially in the second half.

I don't recall that Jackie Chiles got much of a chance to put forth a defense

or rebuttal. The New York Four did not even take the stand, did they? If that had been done maybe the show could have gone two hours. We could have heard some of the good things that they did like Jerry giving the Cadillac to his parents, Kramer coaching Miss Rhode Island and George saving the whale.

I'm sure many more acts of goodness could be added.

I also loved it--sure there have been way better episodes, but this was the last. They had to have some way of looking back at all the past episodes and this way was so much better than what other shows do. It wasnt great, but I couldn't have come up with anything better. BEN

Yup... I liked it. Wasn't the funniest ever (although the outtakes during the Clip Show were the funniest things I've seen in a long time on Seinfeld), but very creative and a fitting, dark, Larry David-esque ending as expected.

I have to agree. There are many people here who thinks that Seinfeld sucks, or that this was the worst episode ever. Granted it wasn't outrageously hilarious, but I liked it. It seemed a fitting way to end the series. Had they all died or something everyone would have been bitching about *that.*

We've been given nine years of great television. Some good eps, some bad eps, but they're all memorable. In a few months (years?) we'll all be looking back and saying, "Remember when they all got arrested?" and laugh.

I'm proud to be a "veteran" Sein-phile, to have watched from the very beginning to the very end. There is no other show on television that is like Seinfeld.

At least it wasn't a 'dream episode.'

EXACTLY. I'm going to go out on a limb and sound like an elitist snob (but what else is new?), but this episode wasn't meant to be fall down funny. It was satire. And that's why a lot of people aren't getting it. Which isn't to say that a few of the people who don't like it didn't get the point, but rather to say that the vast majority aren't, erm, as sophisticated as they'd like to think they are.

Go ahead. Flame me, lot of yer. But when you do it, please attach the meaning of this episode and what they were satirising to the end of your message and prove me wrong.

Right. Most people tune just to see Kramer's gymnastics and what fads Kramerand/or the group are following. The show goes deeper than that.

And you got this information from the secret newsletter that all of the "true fans" get every week, right? It was that same newsletter that explained how to decode the "jokes" in the series finale, so only the "true fans" would understand why they were funny while the obvious "morons" and bandwagon jumpers were left in the dark, right?

Since when was Seinfeld about being sophisticated ? Why does a show have to have some deep hidden meaning to be enjoyable ? Seinfeld was always an enjoyable show in how they took everyday things to an extreme.

Ok, as to what I thought it meant it was a stab at everyone who enjoyed Seinfeld, almost saying that there's something wrong with us enjoying the antics of these not quite nice people. But what's wrong with that? It's a TV show for gods sake, not a manual on how a person should live their lives.

i thought it was a sweet way to say goodbye and to thank all of the supporting players and give them each a chance to take a final bow.

Why apologize for liking an episode of Seinfeld? I liked it too. I think too many people had their hopes up too high, not surprising given the hype. How could *any* episode of *any* show live up to that?

Me, too. I liked the fact that when they were sitting in the jail cell, it wasn't much different than when they were sitting in the Monk's. I did feel sorry for Elaine. She's sitting in some women's prison without the other 3.

For that matter, why apologize for liking OR not liking it? Each one of us is th world's greatest authority on our opinion, and only a blithering fool is going to tell me I'm a fool for having an opinion that's different.

Yes, I was disappointed, but it was okay. I wouldn't say it sucked. And yes, I did *get it*.

They did clear it up in that episode. Her names Delores. I thought that the final episode was pretty good considering what was expected.
