I never got to see the last episode of Seinfeld. What I'd like to know is why does everyone say it sucks and why did they end up going to jail? Will someone explain this to me?
Thanks.

No, sorry. If you were a Seinfeld fan, you'd have seen the last show by not.. it's been repeated 3 times. If you aren't a Seinfeld fan, you'd never understand the explanation. I'd suggest you watch the next 9 years of syndication rebroadcasts and be sure to catch the last episode in 2008. Enjoy!

It's UNFAIR - Firstly they decide to broadcast Seinfeld at the SAME TIME as Babylon 5 in the UK (both satellite so recording is not an option) - secondly, I have to wait AGES to see the last episode... I _HATE_ England...
Just get a friend to rocord the show or record or connect your VCR to a standard TV antenna and record one of the shows that way.

I like England. You all have such cool accents.

So you're suggesting that there is a significant difference between, say, an upper-class, public school accent, a Scottish brogue and Yorkshire gibberish?
Are you insinuating something?

Yes - you CAN'T have a British accent just like you can't generalise an American accent. A cornish accent and a Yorkshire accent are completely different things. A Cockney accent and a Welsh accent are totally different - made my point?
Just quoting MP.
Andrew Brack wrote: Yes - you CAN'T have a British accent just like you can't generalise
But aren't those BRITISH accents as opposed to Russian accents or Frence accents. We can't tell the bloody difference even though the difference may be important to you. So when a person says 'he has a British accent' he means it is from Britain and does not care which part.
BTW, I am Canadian and we have no accent. How ABOUT that!

Oh yeah I'll stay on topic too.
In The Airport - Elaine has a meal, goes to the washroom, sleeps at night - weren't they just flying from St. Louis to NY City? How long does that take? Remember George and Kramer are making the pickup and they don't spend that much time on the ground.

Is that the one where George yells out at Kramer "You cost me 50 bucks" and Kramer replies with something like "Get those legs up, you run like a girl!"? If so I have only seen that scene... (Had to keep in on topic!)
Andrew Brack wrote:
Thanks, that explains it for me (UK etc...)
Yes, and it will soon cost George a lot more since he bought to tickets.
Wrong. It's like this, in case anyone's still reading... England - singular country. Britain - England, Scotland, Wales. UK - Britain, Northern Ireland. British Isles - UK, Eire.

So what's the name used to describe the UK + all its other territories,

UK, or is there another name?

On another note, I _AM_ fairly new to Seinfeld. I enjoyed "The Voice", "The Chicken Roaster", and "Susie" or whatever the one was with the phone message in it. Are they considered to be "classic 'feld"? Finally Sky One have stopped showing it for good (I _NEED_ new Seinfeld eps...)

Everybody certainly does not say the last episode sucked. I thoroughly enjoyed the last episode. When the episode is rerun, watch it yourself and decide if you like it. Everyone has his or her own opinion so you'll need to form your own.
Elaine, Jerry, Kramer, and Seinfeld were sent to prison because they were convicted of breaking a law in a small town which makes it illegal to be not intervene in preventing a crime that you witness. This happened in a small New England town. For more details, watch the show.
Actually, an idea just occured to me. A possible way that a Seinfield move could be made would be to center the plot around appealing thee characters' conviction or maybe show them as prisoners.
Anyway. bye.

For some reason, watching George bend over to pick up the soap doesn't sound tempting to me.

I'm still not sure why so many people said it sucked. I've watched it several times now and I've enjoyed it immensely each time. I think some people didn't like it because they were not *real* Seinfeld fans, they just got sucked in by the hype and were in for a letdown when they couldn't follow what was going on. I think some people didn't like it because they percieve a general decline in quality over the last 2 seasons. I think some people didn't like it because it symbolizes the absolute end of one of the best sitcoms ever taped. I imagine there are many more reasons why people didn't like it, and I cannot endorse any of them.
As for the 2nd question, they went to jail because the jury convicted
them of violating the Good Samaritan law when they made no attempt to
help out the carjacking victim. Simple huh?
