😂 Loved it

Fans love George's insecurity about his chest and the mansierre concept, finding these elements funnier than the main doorman plot, with particular praise for Elaine's condescending delivery of lines.

I've just seen this episode again, and I realised that this must be one of the classic episodes. I loved the part where the woman in Monks mentions to George how they are twins (motioning in the chest region) and his paranoia reaches an even higher level. When asked what is wrong with George, Jerry explains the situation perfectly with "George is just trying to get something off his chest".

Sure, the doorman bit was funny, but George and his father's breasts were the real stars of this episode.

The "mansierre" stuff was funny. I didn't remember that that was in "The Doorman" episode. Another great moment was when Elaine was taking this condescending attitude towards the doorman: "and, pray tell, what did the doooorman say."

It wasn't. But the fact that George has Man Breasts was. Remember at the coffee shop George looking in his shirt at his chest area? LOL!

Sure it was. The Doorman episode definitely includes the "bro"/"manssierre" subplot.

TESTIMONIUM CLINTONIUM, circa A.D. 66(?): About this time there lived Clintus, a wry man, if indeed one ought to call Him a man. For He was one who performed surprising misdeeds and was a teacher of such people as accept his untruth gladly. He won over many

No....You're thinking of "The Fuscilli Jerry" episode.

I stand corrected. You're right. I was thinking of the refrence to "The Bro" in "The Fuscilli Jerry". I'm sorry.

When I saw the first post it's the first thing that popped into my head. I love that line and Elaine's delivery of it.
