Did anybody else notice that they went to jail for doing 'nothing'!
Also, at the very end when all four were in jail, Jerry was noticing the 2nd button on George's shirt. I don't know exactly what reference this was from but I was told by another fan that this was a reference from the original pilot, "The Seinfeld Chronicles." He went out with a reference to the very first show! Anybody have that one on tape care to add more about this.

EXACTLY! What a perfect motif for the finale!
I do think they could have done a couple of things to make the show a little funnier (isn't that always the case?). For example, can you picture the fab 4 in slack-jawed disbelief watching a jury of exclusively "big people" take their seats, only to be topped by the judge coming up to the bench on a ramp with one of those electronic carts because he's so big?
I'd like to see them all back after a year hiatus, even if for only specials or a very limited series (like one show every other week). Somewhere between the lines I got the impression that Jerry in real life simply got homesick. When you get wrapped up in something as huge as this show, before you know it you've "wasted" 9 years living in a place you would never have agreed to had you seen into the future. Then reality hits you like a ton of bricks and you want to go back to your roots. My bet is the show will be resurrected in 1999, but it will be in production either in NYC or somewhere nearby to allow Jerry to return to his real-life roots in NYC.
And if/when they do return, I think John Pinette would be a good addition to the lineup. He has a great standup routine that can easily spawn a character a-la Newman (perhaps an anti-Newman?).
Er, "duh"?
