Someone mentioned "Shmoopie" in the newsgroup a while ago. Can someone tell me in which episode Jerry and his girlfriend were calling each other by that name?
Shmoopie
Fans discuss the 'Shmoopie' pet name from The Soup Nazi episode, with debate over whether it was in character for Jerry and whether it detracted from the episode's quality.

It was from The Soup Nazi. I felt it was so totally out of character for Jerry that I'd almost say it keeps the episode from being considered a truly great one. Do others share my view, or am I alone on this one? --L. J. Weiner

I don't know about that. Any guy that is vain and superficial enough to mark out the number of his size on his Levi's is definitely capable of calling his girlfriend "Shmoopie." ;-)

I don't see how vanity and superficiality have anything to do with what you call your girlfriend. The point is that Jerry comes off as too urbane and cynical to use such a saccharine term of endearment.

This'll probably be one of about 200 replies to this question, but it was, of course, the famous (or infamous) "Soup Nazi" episode. Easy to recall because Jerry chose soup over "Schmoop."
