Fans praise the 9/30 episode as a strong show with well-linked storylines, enjoying Kramer's "Commando 8" bit, Uncle Leo's appearance, and physical comedy from the cast.

	Well, well, well!
I'd say that the 9/30 show was most definitely a good one.  I know there are
a handful of people out there who want to just jump the proverbial gun
and compare it to the Master of Domain show - these are the inexperienced,
the weenie, the weak.  This show had a few very nice threads that were all
linked together nicely in the end.  Let's make sure we take each show for
what its truly worth.
	SPECIFIC COMMENTS/QUESTIONS:
		1) Commando 8!! Nice one Kramer.  By the way, if anyone need a
30% discount on anything...
		2) Uncle Leo - Was this the first time he's been on?  Never
seen him before.
		3) Martin Richards with one of his famous slapstick moves -
the Commando 8 out the window.  Did anybody see him when he was on "Fridays"?
In that show and in the movie, "Transylvania 6-5000," he made the show/movie.
		4) Q: Who was the actress that played Amy?  Looks familiar.
		5) Who is John Oteri?  The show was dedicated to him.  Whoever
he is, he's clearly dead.
	In general, good stuff.  Elaine, I thought, was pretty good in this
one especially, although some might disagree.
		Any further comments?

It's definitely right up there with "The Mango" in my book, if not better. By the way, what's the official title? "The Glasses"? "The Dog"?

Some quick takes:

George eating Rold Gold! I love it!

Kramer's bit with the former sugar addict was priceless.

The meter maid with the horse brought a grin, but no more...

...y'know, Seinfeld's luck (or lack thereof) with the women is getting slightly old. How many different ways can he mess up? For instance, the scene with him, Uncle Vic, and the tickets. When Vic passed on the message "I'm sorry", I knew right away it'd be something concerning the tickets. Jerry jumped the gun and walked right into the trap, accusing Amy of kissing his cousin! It kinda smacked of...*gulp*...an ordinary sitcom! (Eeek!)

Still, 'twas a hilarious episode.

I'm watching it right now, and so far I like it!

"TWENTY FIVE HUNDRED BTUs OF RAW COOLING POWER!"

"I think it got the dog!....."

I think Amy is Alex from Wings. (pretty!)

Fave moments from the show...

Elaine hobbling away from the eye shop clutching her leg.

"Woof! Woof! Not Bang! Bang!"

"Will this hurt?" ... "Yes very much."

	Kramer screaming at Duane about candy & shoving cantalopes down
	throat (and from what's-his-name's fruit stand!)

...eeew, George ate the onion.

I thought it was 12,000 BTUs, not 2500. Did I get it wrong?

My favorite quote was: "Retail's for suckers."

And I did love it when George started eating the onion!

Dude! where have you been????

The scene where Elaine was spitting out water was hilarious.

Barbara WhiteDale Wyttenbach

If anyone taped last night's episode and has the patience to copy it down, I would LOVE to have the exact phrasing of the latest Kramer ranting.

I was floored when he said something like the guy was "soaring on cinnamon buns" (or something like that).

Last night's episode was pretty darn funny, but I think Elaine's spitting-up water bit was out of charactor for her. She is to classy for that. However, her sudden, psychotic mood swings were brilliant. This new season definately has it's high points, but something seems very different... I hope the writers don't try to change things around in a warped assuption of what they *think* "us the public" want to see. I just want classic SEINFELD!!! -ELENA M :-)

He was on the episode where Jerry throws the watch away that his parents got him. I think Jerry and George were late for their meeting with NBC and they run into him on the street. He may have been in another episode too.

"Michael" Richards was excellent in Transylvania 6-5000. I especially liked the part where he slips on the banana peel! And how about when he got his leg stuck in the door?!

I also thought she looked familiar, however when I saw her name at the end (can't remember it), I didn't recognize it.

Again, no idea.

Elaine was great when she was freaking out, yelling at George and at Kramer .

Much more so than the Commando 8 scene, I liked it when Kramer got in that guy's face (Duane) about getting him off sugar. "You were all hopped up on Cinnamon Swirls!...I had to drag you to the fruit stand and shove cantalope down your throat!...YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!" I was rolling.

And when Kramer said to George, "Can I have this, Madame?"

Hard to tell if Elaine had rabies or not, her character wasn't that much different than usual <g> It was an hilarious show. I just knew that airconditioner would fall on the dog.
