Questions on Seinfeld

The big "M", something most 14 year-olds have down to an art (not all of them, though. I have faith in you). Masturbation.

No, but his gym teacher called him that (Seriously!)

I'm not sure about that one, but I doubt it seeing as he and the Sein are good friends. (sorry to use the "F" word in a Seinfeld newsgroup)

It's taped. The stage is a set.

Julia

"One of the first Seinfeld's" is right! This was the first episode. Julia (we're on a first-name basis :]) wasn't in that episode (she is in the second episode, though). That other woman, Lee Garlington, played the waitress.

Not at all. More soup for you!

1. In "The Contest" Jerry, George, Kramer and Elaine had a bet to see who would NOT masturbate first.

2. I don't think they picked Costanza based upon "Can't Stand Ya" but they did make that reference in an episode.

• I believe he wants to do other things. I never heard the reason.

4. The show is filmed in front of a live audience. I think the stand up is done in front of 'extras' it doesn't look like a real bar to me.

• Elaine was not in the first episode, she came along later.

Answer: Masterbation

Answer: Yes

Answer: He is like the character George in life, you can understand his paranioia I'm sure.

Answer: Usually live audience.

Elaine was not in the first episode.

How do you figure Georges name was based on that. His gym teacher made a play on words with it but I dont think his name was based on it.

That's funny...most 14-year-olds have known everything for at least a year already! :)

Most 14-year-olds ESPECIALLY know THAT!

I'e heard this before and it drives me crazy ... what WAS the first episode? And is there a "story" about when and why the decided to add Elaine?

Thanks, Jen

They were betting who could refrain from masturbating the longest. Being 14, if you don't know about this "sport" yet, you soon will.

no.

Don't know.

yes.

Don't know.

Oh com'on, not everyone is pathetic enough to practise such a low side of human action. Not everyone does it you know. Not everyone is possesed with things like that.

Are you a Master of your Domain or are you just trying to make a 14-year-old to feel guilty if she exercises this very natural habit? I bet you a 100 bucks I can stay away from it longer than you (I have a boyfriend).

A study shows that 9 out of 10 men masturbate, and 7 out of 10 women masturbate. What does this show? Women are better liars than men.

I don't know what you were like at 14, but I certainly remember sexual gratification being a primary goal. It is natural for somebody to seek this out if they are denied a partner, as most young teens are.

Penny Starr of the Jerusalem Post says she watches Seinfeld to see if someday Jerry will get a heart, Kramer a brain, or George "da noive." An interesting comparison, I thought... though George has no heart either, and Kramer does have a brain (it's just not standard issue). Elaine, as Julia Louis-Dreyfus has noted, has no logical reason to spend her time hanging out with these people, so she must be Dorothy.

If they ever want to end the series gracefully, they should end it like the Wizard of Oz. The guys should all help Elaine achieve something harder than any of them has ever achieved, and as a result she should leave and they should mature...

I like the "Wizard of Oz" angle, but doesn't Jerry exhibit a heart when he picks up the books for George? Didn't George exhibit "da noive" when he started doing "the opposite"? The closest thing I can come up with regarding Kramer and a brain is the coffee table book, but he ruined that on "Live with Regis and Kathie Lee."

I think I disagree, because in comparison to the friends series, the Seinfeld people are much nicer to each other, and do favours to each other all he time. Sometimes they are nice to other people, and sometimes not, just like real people. However, a Wizard of Oz episode could be real cool, like the "Tempting of the shrew" "Moonlighting" episodes.
