In "The Barber," the interviewer tells George that he likes the fact that he doesn't have to explain everything to George. He likes it that George understands.

George replies, "I enjoy understanding."

Great line.

What about the time Jerry's trying to change George's girlfriend's answering machine tape before she hears the messages George left and she starts to come into the room and George, panicking, yells out to warn Jerry, "Tippietoe! Tippietoe! Lemon tree!" Absolutely hilarious.

I have to agree with you on the George quote. I hadn't seen that episode until recently and when I did see it I did get quite a laugh from it. You can't say enough for re-runs I guess. Maybe you can explain how a guy like George gets so many good looking girls? Just wondering!

In "The Limo," George tells some guy that "We are living in a society" when the guy won't give him the time of day.

I recall George saying this in at least one other episode. Does anybody know which one(s)?

I believe he said this in The Chinese Restaurant when he felt he was cut in line for the phone.

George also said this when a woman wouldn't let him use the phone at the chinese restaurant.

Hi, When George was up for another job, and bought a suit that made a 'swoosh' sound, the guy that was going to hire him insisted on George being a team player. "There's no problem there, conformity is an obsession with me." Peace Gordo

there is no best, but:

"george likes spicy chicken." --the jimmy

"my name is george. i'm unemployed and i live with my parents." --the opposite

"i'm disturbed! i'm depressed! i'm neurotic! i got it all!." --the visa

"you're killing independent george!" --the pool guy

on jerry's answering machine: "this is george. i got nothin' to say." --?

elaine: "just because you think a man is attractive doesn't make you a homosexual." george: "it couldn't help."

--just some of the best

Hi I'm back with a few memorable Georgie quotes.

In the episode where George decides to tell his girlfriend exactly what he thinks: Elaine: You're extremely ch....careful with your money. George: I'm CHEAP?! I can't beleive you said that! I'm not working right now, when I was working I SPENT BABY!!!

In the same episode, Jerry and George visit her in the mental institution: I should be in a place like this, you get to wear slippers all day, people pity you. I think pity is under-rated, I like it, it's good

or this season, when George is stressed out over getting married. George: "Look at me Jerry! Look! My stomach is upset, my neck is stiff, I can't turn, (twists his head from side to side) Jerry: "You're turning" George: "IT'S NOT A GOOD TURN!!!"

George at his neurotic best. bye Gordo

For my money the best George quote is, " Nothing is a lie, if you believe it," but I can't for the life of me remember what episode it was on.

Close. It was actually the episode after that, "The Beard."

Matt Spaulding Drew University Madison, New Jersey "Now he drills some more, and you hear him make a mistake... BZZT! BZZT! ...GULP! And to ocver it up they all say the same thing, `OK, RINSE!'" -Bill Cosby, "The Dentist"

It was called The Visa. George is dating a woman whose cousin is sueing Elaine and George thinks that she likes him because she thinks he is funny. He instructs Jerry not to act funny in her presence and she becomes attracted to Jerry's newly affected behaviour.

"What, you're using my baby's now?"

(When Jerry finished a sentence with "baby!")

nope, you are very wrong. It WAS the polygraph episode. now, i don't know if the beard story line was included within that episode, but, jerry definitely needs to take a polygraph test to try to prove he doesn't watch melrose, so he asks for george's advice on how to lie.

My favorite George quote is when his mother found a prophylactic wrapper on her bed, Frank asks why George was having sex on their bed, and George replies by saying:

"My bed's too small!"

That was a classic. I think my favorite Frank Costanza quote,would be in the same episode,

"Your mother and I are gone two weeks, and you turn our place into ...Bourboun Street!!??" Peace, Gordo

I think the best George quote is . . . .

"IF YOU BELIEVE IT, IT IS NOT A LIE!"

The all-time best line by George was when the episode when Jerry was supposed to be interviewed by the college student and she thinks that Jerry and George are gay lovers (not that there's anything wrong with that!). They repeatedly tell her that they're NOT gay, and then George says "My father's gay!"

just a few...

from the episode with jon lovitz: Lovitz: George, I've gotta tell you, I'm living a lie. George: So what...I'm living about 20!

The marine biologist: "The sea was angry that day my friends, like an old man trying to return soup at a deli."

from the episode where George wouldn't read Breakfast at Tiffany's: Jerry: You're not very bright, are you? George: No I'm not. I'd like to be, but I'm not.

from the bubble boy: "Its Moops!!!"

YANGETY!

It's the episode where Jerry has to take a lie detector to see whether or not that he has seen "Melrose Place" It's last season's.

I know he was mentoring Jerry there, who had to tell a lie. Was it the one where Elaine wanted to live in his building?

Jerry's girlfriend works for the police department. They start having an argument about whether Jerry is a Melrose Place fun or not. Finally, she dares him to take a lie detector test. Later, back at Jerry's place, George gives Jerry a few hints on how to fool the lie detector.

no no no, it's at monk's where george gives jerry the classic advice. -jamie

That was the episode where Jerry was to undergo a polygraph to determine whether he was lying when he said he didn't watch 'Melrose Place'.

There was a similarly amusing scene in one episode where Jerry and George want to get out of having dinner with J. Peterman. Jerry is able to weasle his way out of it, but George - the usually consummate liar - is unable to think of his own excuse to leave. A concerned Jerry approaches George ... Jerry: "Come on, weave your web, Liar-Man!" George: (looking around furiously) "I'm choking!!!"

It was such a melodramatic scene! Great episode.

"The Crying Game" is a movie. If you go rent it, everything will make sense. There was also a parody of that same scene from "The Crying Game" in the movie "Naked Gun 33 1/3" with Anna Nicole Smith and Leslie Neilson.
