Does anyone know the name of the episode where George tries all day to get a twix bar, and then at the very end, he's like "twiiiiiiiiix!"?

The spisode is called "The Dealership". It was from the last season and is probably my favourite episode of all time.

Ack! Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, of course, but it's still a bit jarring to hear someone say their fave episode is the one I like the least. I mean, c'mon: candy bar lineup?! If he was so hungry, why didn't he just eat the Twix bars himself? And why did Kramer's car salesman's personality completely change halfway into the episode?

Nah, it was a bomb. Great beginning--loved George's initial encounter with the vending machine--but the last half makes this the "worst... episode... ever..." (to use Simpsons terminology).

Have to agree with you on this one. I was not a big fan of this ep at all.

And where did he get all those twixes from in the 1st place. I thought that mechanic had the last one?

He must have gone out and bought it, but the fact that he didn't eat one before doing the candy line-up is unexplainable.

Not the worst, but close. I vote for The Strongbox as worst episode. Except for Kramer's futile attempts to hide the strongbox key, nothing in the show is remotely funny. George can't break up with two women, Elaine as Lois Loan, and then Fredo's exhumation is the clincher.

I thought the story line about Jerry not knowing that guy lived in the building was pretty funny. Especially the part when he thought the guys wife was the maid.

<<<I thought the story line about Jerry not knowing that guy lived in the building was pretty funny. Especially the part when he thought the guys wife was the maid.>>>

Here's the problem I have with many of the episodes late in Season 9 (like The Dealership and The Strongbox): While I'll be happy to concede that there were funny individual moments, they were often inconsistant with the Seinfeld universe that was carefully constructed in the first eight seasons. A couple of examples: The Jerry who dressed down the car-rental employee who could take a reservation, but was unable to hold it (and really, that's the most imporatnt part...) could not have been the same person who would allow himself to be charged extra for keys to a new car. George with a wildly oversized wallet is a bit amusing, but it's certainly something that wouldn't appear in his pocket overnight...except it did in Season 9.

No "Male Unbonding" is the worst episode. Cannot find anything funny about it.

I love that episode. My favorite line isn't even from one of the main characters - when George opens the door to the room with the candy lineup, & the black woman yells "Hey, look - free candy!" it kills me everytime. Someting about the way she blurts out that line with a wad of Twix her mouth cracks me up.

I love Puddy's comeback at Elaine (in the episode after that she gave up: "I mean, who has the energy anymore? This is more about hanging off the arm of an idiot"):

ELAINE: You're a salesman now - and the high-five is.. it's very grease monkey.

PUDDY: What did I tell you about that?

ELAINE: I'm sorry, but the high-five is just so stupid.

PUDDY: (Somewhat hurt) Oh yeah? I'll tell you what's stupid. You. Stupid.

ELAINE: Well, that is really mature.

PUDDY: Yeah? So are you.

ELAINE: Huh?

PUDDY: You're the grease monkey.

ELAINE: (Confused at David's attempts at a comeback) Uh.. that doesn't make any sense. I am leaving.

I thought of that one, but I gave it a pass because the show was still in its infancy. It's interesting to watch the very early shows to see how the characters evolved from the initial concept.

O.K, maybe it has some inconsistencies and stupidities (like the candy line up you say), but all i know is that every time i watch it i laugh my ass off more than any other episode, therefore it's my favourite. "It's wrinkled, it's worthless" is the best line ever IMO.

This is what made Seinfeld so great. It appealed to a huge cross section of people. From the simple innocent amusing first few years, to the incredibly funny brilliant genius of the middle years, and then the silly last two years when Jerry knew it was time to quit. There is something for everyone.

there are still a number of classic lines from that ep:

JERRY: So, Puddy, this is a pretty good move for you, huh? No more "grease monkey".

PUDDY: I don�t care for that term.

JERRY: Oh. Sorry, I didn�t know..

PUDDY: No, I don�t know too many monkeys who could take apart a fuel injector.

JERRY: I saw one once that could do sign language.

PUDDY: Yeah, I saw that one. Uh.. Koko.

JERRY: Yeah, Koko.

JERRY: Alright, alright. Alright, that�s enough! Let�s get back to my deal. That undercoating, that�s just a rip-off, isn�t it, David?

PUDDY: Oh, we don�t even know what it is.

ELAINE: (To Jerry) You couldn�t just give him one high-five?

George is the type of person that will do stuff for principle like the episode where he wouldn't give up his spot to Mikey the bookie cause Mikey went head in.
