Did any of the Seinfeld episode's make you mad?????? The episode where Jerry turned down a threesome made me mad and lose some respect for Jerry. George was pissed !!!!! Come on Jerry, do the threesome, we are all trying to live through you!
The only episode that made me mad!
Viewers discuss an episode where Jerry declines a threesome, with one poster expressing anger at Jerry's decision while others defend the show's darker humor and character flaws.
Right after that episode I got into the spirit and talked this girl I was seeing into it. It was out this world. It's something YOU have to do, not live it thru someone.
If you must know, I didn't feel like I was "The Man" after I did it. I've felt like that all along, before and after.
Do you mean girl or girlS? What you just said was a twosome. What do you mean seeing it? The show? I'm confused. Maybe you shouldn't let tv influence you so much.
Just out of curiosity...can you guys take the 3some deal to alt.sex.orgy? I mean, c'mon! this is for SEINFELD, not someones sex life...
No episode made me mad, but several stressed me out with all the awful things happening. Some of those can still be considered great though (like "The Dinner Party" and "The Limo".
These episodes were the least funny - they don't compare to the great ones, in my opinion:
The Old Man - mean-spirited mock of elderly people including goiters.
The Implant - boring dilemma of the breast implant and the Salman Rushdie "lookalike".
The Barber - unsuccessful story of Jerry's bad haircut uses the Barber of Seville music as a mock opera but premise is weak.
The Stand-In - too many dwarf jokes, plus another death for laughs.
The Wife - repellent concepts of using one another to gain a discount and doing disgusting things in public showers - too far-fetched.
The Hamptons - completely concerned with an ugly baby, Elaine's vanity and George's small "shrunken" equipment. No plot.
The Engagement/The Postponement - a dognapping plot that is not funny. And the rabbi who betrays confidences is completely unbelievable.
The Hot Tub - visiting marathon runner being late again is a tedious plot you can figure out a mile away.
Note: Despite my critical comments, these episodes were still better than any other sitcom on tv. I am just saying they are not as good as the best of the Seinfeld episodes.
The episode with "The High Talker" was quite ineffective because it was obvious that the voice was being (badly) dubbed. For the show to work, they needed a genuine high talker.
The only scene of any episode that I will always turn off is the post-funeral scene in "The Pony Remark", where Elaine rudely bellows at the grieving widower, "What about the apartment!?" Very un-Laneylike.
Wasn't she doped up on very strong painkillers?

No episode of Seinfeld has ever made me mad....just the endless round of reruns we have had lately
These are the shallowest, insincere, and egotistical people who have ever graced the television screen. The only thing that would ever make me mad at this show is if they all became devout religious followers.
The last two seasons have mad me angry because the shows...how shall I put this?...SUCKED, almost universally. The characters became retarded, not funny...the situations ridiculous and worse. I give all due credit for 7 great years, 7 more than most shows give us. But these last two...awful. Tonight, Jerry even fucked up the 'Hello, Newman,' making it more of a shtik than an actual expression of distaste. It's sad. I hope Larry David..the apparent real talent...had one more good one in him for the finale.
But you gotta admit, the opening scene (kramer disgracing jerry's apartment) RULED!

Are girls generally into the manage e tois (I probably butchered the spelling) as men are? Also, has anyone ever "taken it out" like Elaines boyfriend in the car (and President Clinton)? Does it work?
Yes, When George finds work as a hand model only to lose his job when he grabs hold of a scalding hot iron. I did not find this funny and was outraged that such a horrific and painful accident was portrayed as funny.

This is the TV show that has Jerry mug an old lady for a marble rye. Susan dies and George is on the phone the next day trying to get a date. Bad things happen to other characters because of these guys. It's good to have something bad happen to THEM every now and then.
Because it happened to George, it was funny. He'll never hold onto something special. Anyway, the only episode that made me mad was "The Dog", because that's my least favorite episode.
I hated "The Dog" also because it was so obvious that it wasn't a real dog. The only episode I dislike more is "The Busboy" because it just wasn't funny...

The Busboy trully sucked. "The Seinfeld Chronicles" was pretty bad as well.
Right On.
"Seinfeld Insults Burn Victims!!!" - How could we have missed this?

Mocking burn victims is surely not their most offensive act. What about:
- mocking latte drinkers, Johnnie Cochrane and the Simpson trial, deaf people, death, gay people, birth control, deformed people, handicapped people, the Kennedy assassination, elderly people, ugly babies, dwarves, unemployment fraud, Orientals, East Indians, auctions, kidney stones, breast implants, mugging, flatulation, Alcoholics Anonymous, beautiful blondes, the homeless, rhinoplasty, detectives, prostitutes and pimps, surgery, car mechanics, and ...
- ridiculing real people like the Soup Nazi, George Steinbrenner, John F. Kennedy Jr. and J. Peterman.....the list goes on.
The whole point is the willingness to lampoon everything.
The reason the horrific burn accident was funny was the complete and utter selfishness and vanity of George which preceded it - he was set to have a cushy life doing nothing but pampering his beautiful hands which were going to be his livelihood.
It was a little commentary like Titanic, about hubris - the overweening pride of man which leads to his downfall.
oh boy....the p.c. police will get you...
lol

on some pigeons and ran over a squirrel; Kramer got burnt by coffee; Susan got
poisoned...and there must be others that are equally as painful and worse.
What bugged me about the ep you mentioned was the fact that George's new
career was so cruelly cut short, thus further imprisoning him with his parents.I'm sorry, i take my previous post back. There was an episode that i found very not funny, was when Susan died. And they tried to make that situation funny. Not funny at all. Disturbing
"Are chew talking to me? Well, if chew weren't talking to me, then you must be talking to him. Well, which is it then?"
The episode that ticks me off was the "backwards" episode where they all went to India for a wedding. That was one of the most poorly done, tedious episodes I've seen. Other than that, I can find something to enjoy in all of the episodes.

I have to disagree with that remark, Jerry is right about becoming an orgy guy! Not something i would want to go through, with the lotions and mustache! Haha. So true! And i can't recall ever getting "mad" at an episode. Maybe when it's not funny enough, but that's it!
