Fans discuss contradictions in Seinfeld episodes, particularly about Kramer's knowledge of comas between "The Suicide" and "The Comeback," with replies noting other continuity errors.
Don't mean to be *too* sad, but here's another contradiction. In "The Suicide", Jerry doesn't know what the "coma etiquette" is, and Kramer says there isn't one, and that you give the guy "24 hours to get out of it". However, in "The Comeback", Kramer doesn't know it is possible to come out of a coma.
Kramer: "I didn't know it was possible to come out of a coma" Jerry: "I didn't know it was possible not to know that."
Man, I'm sad.
In "The Jimmy", Kramer says he left the "Y" but the exterior shots are of the "New York Health Club", not "the Y".
Jerry: "Wait a second ..Where you wearing those shoes in the cab?" Kramer: "Yeah! yeah! right after I left the Y."
Anyone?
Now if that was unintended it would be a continuity error, but calling it the "Y" - I don't see any problem with that. YMCA, same thing (to Kramer anyway, who is not your normal guy...).

Are you saying the "YMCA" and the "New York City Health Club" are the same thing? ????? Or am I missing something here?

In "The Airport," Kramer becomes fixated on getting his $240 from Grossbard, whom he lived with on 18th Street twenty years ago (air date: 25 Nov '92). However, in the very first episode (air date: 5 July '89), we hear Jerry mention to Kramer that he hasn't been out of the building in ten years. So, if we do the math...damn! I thought I might've had one there. :)

I don't think that is and error because it fit's the Kramer character.

Jerry would have remembered and called him on it. So it doesn't fit *his* character.
I like the incontinuities in the past sometimes. It means they aren't concerned with little things like that. Remember when asked if he pees in the shower, Kramer says, "I take baths"
A truely hilarious moment
However, it is a little less funny that he decides to live in his shower in an episode in the later years. Man, I really think the show went downhill then "Tod Friendly" wrote in message news:9iio5k$hmi$[email]...
I think I recall another ep where Kramer says he particularly doesn't take baths because it's like "lying in your own filth, with micro-organisms having sex all around you". I think it's when he gets a hot tub, and Jerry points out the micr-organisms, to which Kramer replies "Oh, nothing can tolerate that heat". Something like that.

After a PC break-down a number of weeks ago I was unable to access Usenet (until today) so signed up to a Seinfeld mailing list. The vast majority of Seinfeld related threads there ran along the lines of -"Does anyone remember the episode where... That was really funny." -"Yes. Do you remember the one where... that was hilarious"
On balance, I think I prefer "sad".
Don't be sad. Just make up a far fetched explanation that explains away the contradiction just like when fundies explain why the bible doesn't contradict itself. Andrew Cameron wrote in message ...
