Idea for an episode

An episode will be created based on the concept of 'laggers' (slow drivers) featuring Jerry's standup routine and character discussions about driving frustrations.

Fans discuss a proposed episode concept about drivers who lag behind traffic flow, with Jerry's standup about laggers and debates about road safety features like front brake lights.

How about this for an episode. Opening scene starts with Jerry's stand-up routine, as always, this time he's talking about laggers. That's right, laggers. He mentions something about driving, getting behind these laggers and never being about to pass because the lagger is lagging behind the rest of the cars. The show opens with George driving and Krammer riding along. George complains that he would like to make a left turn onto the main street but he doesn't know how fast or slow this lagger is coming toward him. Krammer complains that laggers are the safest drivers out there, doing the speed limit or just below it and that he's offended because he is "quote" a lagger. The whole show could be based on this concept, along with Elains idea of having brakelights on the front of cars so that you know when making a left at the light if the car approaching from the other direction will be slowing down at the yellow light.

Just a few suggestions...

Thank you, Keith

Would Jerry Seinfeld (the character in "Seinfeld," not the person who portrays him) appear in an infomercial? Is he famous enough in the context of the show that he would get such an offer. In the US fame = money and he bought his father a Cadillac; he has appeared on the "Today" and "Tonight" shows.

Has the "marrying someone from another country so he can stay in the U.S." idea been overworked already? It formed the basis of the movie GREEN CARD and an episode of "Wings" and probably figured into the plot of other movies and TV shows, but it seems like the kind of scheme that would appeal to Kramer.

It was done on FRIENDS this past season. I think it could be given a fresh coat of paint, though. It could even be George that gets mixed up in the scheme. He could marry the sister of a Dominican baseball player on the Yankees.

Or Kramer could do it for money and pick somebody out of a catalog.
