This is tough, both "The Contest" and the one where Jerry and Elaine visit his folks in Florida are great, but my favorite is "The Subway" (or whatever it's called).

I'v been trying to narrow my choice for favorite Seinfeld episode down to one but I just can't do it. There are just too many good ones.

Examples : The Limo, The Parking Garage, The Trip, The Bubble Boy, The Contest, The Airport, The Visa, The Pick and The Outing. There are more but I can't remember them now.

I guess the best of the best would be 'The Contest' and 'The Outing'. Could I possibly vote for 2? Or, could I give half a vote to each?

Well, my final, final choice would be 'The Outing' but only because 'The Contest' has gotten so many votes. Best scene from 'The Outing' :

  George is trying to convince the Girl that he is not gay (Not
  that... Oh, nevermind).
   "Look, you wanna have *sex* right now? Do you want to have sex with
    me? Let's go! C'mon, lets go baby! You and me! Right now!"

In conclusion, (My english teacher would die if he heard me say that) 'The Outing' would be my favorite Seinfeld episode of all time.

The Visa is the episode with Babu, the Pakistani guy. While Jerry is on the road, Elaine picks up his mail for him and Babu's visa renewal form (is there such a thing) get accidently sent to Jerry's mail box. Elaine takes her time giving Jerry his mail back when he returns and Babu ends up getting deported for not renewing his visa.

I know I'm late, but I do have a good excuse, MOM.

I'm, frankly, appalled at the lack of support for "The Outing" episode in the Survey. I've only seen it nominated once.

Well make it twice. I know I'm late, everybody's late, NTTAWWT!

How soon we forget classics!

BTW: I've never seen "The Contest", but "The Outing" deserves more than it's getting for support.

I don't think I saw a single vote for "The Nip". One of my favorite scenes from all of Seinfeld is when George asks Elaine why he didn't get a Christmas card and Elaine says something like, "You want to see my card? Here!!" and she puts his face right up against her breasts.

Definitely a scene to remember !!

That's because it's being voted on as "The Pick". I remember first seeing the title listed as "The Nip," but apparently people are using "The Pick" because it was the other major subplot of the ep and, more importantly, the subplot that involved Jerry.

Guess only Bob Warznak (of the people who regularly read/post to this group) knows for sure.

No, no, no. "The Pick" was an episode about a girl, who happened to be a Calvin Klein model, who thought she saw Jeryy picking his nose. But believe me, THERE WAS NO PICK! The finger was obiously on the side, merely a scratch. From the model's vantage point though, it appeared to be a "pick." The episode called "The Nip" was a different one.

Precisely my point above. This is the same ep. Elaine's Christmas Card fiasco occurs in the first half and "The Pick" occurs in the second part. After the model sees Jerry, Jerry is lamenting to George and Elaine comes in complaining that everyone is calling her "Nip".

No... They were both the same show... The show revolved around body parts that could be embarrassing...

	- Jerry kept on trying to explain to his girl friend that
 	  it was a scratch not a pick.
	- Elaine got embarrassed because her nipple showed on the
	  Christmas card.
	- Kramer appeared in the Calvin Klein underwear ad and his
	  ??? was showing.

George just kept complaining because he never received a Christmas card.

Thank you.

Well I stand corrected. I remembered the story lines, but just didn't think all of this could happen in 30 minutes minus commercials. Hmmph. After all, Elaine saw her shrink, George saw the shrink, Kramer came in and smelled the ocean on the model, then got bamboosled (sp?) into posing for CK. Are you *sure* all this happened in the same episode? I knew there was a reason I loved this show: high density entertainment!
