Kramer does some terrific takes:
	1. Spit takes
		A. Spitting coffee all over Regis and Cathy Lee
		B. Spitting out the bad peach in the "Faking It" episode
	2. Vomit takes
		A. Barfing on Susan
	3. Eyeball takes
		A. The beady eyeball peering through the window of the fruit store
			when he was banned and Jerry had to buy his fruit.
		B. Staring at George through the doorway when George wanted to tell
			Jerry as secret.

But the best recent take has to be checking out the hind quarters of the rooster in the cock fighting episode.

Nope, nope, nope. They were all good, but the best by far was during "The Outing", when Kramer points out that Jerry might 'appear' gay because he's single, thin, and neat. Jerry then points out that Kramer fits the description as well, and Kramer launches into the greatest 'take' of all time.

When I watch this one on tape, I cannot keep my finger off
the rewind button.  In fact, one 30-minute episode sometimes
takes me 45 minutes to watch!

Dave, no way is the "homophobe take" up to the level of the "rear end of the rooster take."

(I think maybe this thread has gone too far)

My favorite Kramer episode is when someone's toe is severed and Kramer takes it to the hospital in the bus. Then there is a stick up in the bus and the bus driver gets shot.

Kramer: ... I had to make all the stops. Jerry: you kept making all the stops? K: they kept ringing the bell!

hahahaha... I'm sorry I didn't do it justice but you know the show I'm talking about.

Somewhere in there George jumps up an says "you're batman! you're batman!".

It seems like every Seinfeld episode has a name on this NG. What is this one called?

This is exactly what I thought of as I read the post. That scene in "the Outing" with Kramer was definitely classic.

I'm not sure if this qualifies as a "take" but the scene where Kramer tries to stop an air conditioner falling out of Jerry's window is a classic.

My favorite "take" is him trying to grip the doorknob after using Jerry's mom's hand lotion..

Exactly the one that came to mind for me.

It was in "The Good Samaritan"

After watching a repeat of "The Marine Biologist", I feel that this episode had Kramer's best "take" of all. The reason being that instead of relying on the obvious "spit take", "double take", etc., Michael Richards played it perfectly straight. Watch carefully as his face subtly changes from interest in George's story to guilt when George pulls out the golf ball. What else can you do in that instance but ask "Is it a Titleist?"
