Question

Fans recall the episode where Kramer yells at Jerry about not thanking someone for hockey tickets, telling him to move to the East Side if he doesn't want to be part of society.

Hi,

Which episode did Kramer make a joke about the Upper East Side?

Very inaccurate paraphrase:

Kramer was speaking to Jerry and Jerry says something along the lines of living in the real world and asks, "who doesn't live in the real world?"

And Kramer says, "it's called the Upper East Side."

I believe you may be referring to THE FACE PAINTER where Jerry did not thank Alex Berg for the hockey tickets and Kramer wanted to get tickets for the friday game. He yelled at Jerry for not being part of society .. like the people on the East Side... don't know the exact quote

In "The Face Painter," Jerry refused to thank Alec Berg for the hockey tickets, much to Kramer's angst. When it came to a head, Kramer shouted: " . . . because this is how society works, Jerry, and if you don't want to be a part of society, why don't you just MOVE to the EAST SIDE!!!!!"

DEATON ====================

"....why don't you just *get in your car and* move to the East Side....."

None of us is as stong as all of us.

I lived on the Upper East Side for two years (East 82nd near 1st) and even after that I was confused as to the "differences" in attitude and outlook, and typical denizens, of the Upper East and Upper West Sides. The two areas are not that far away from each other (only a walk or a drive around, or through Central Park separates them) but in some ways -- not completely understood to me -- they're a world apart. The only differences I can describe from personal experience are these:

1)  Upper West Side - many more performers, aspiring models,
    musical/Broadway performing arts types, actors/actresses.
    Lincoln Center and Juilliard influence.
2)  Upper East Side - a lot more "corporate" types.  Yuppies
    who actually work for a living.  But, also a lot of
    wealthy old widows and dowagers with their diamond-collared
    poodles, living in rent-controlled apartments.
  • Upper West Side - some really mega-wealthy people, international business tycoon types, etc.
  • Upper East Side - Lots more affordable restaurants. Note: I didn't say "good" restaurants.
5)  Upper West Side - fewer restaurants but much more
    expensive.  The kind you are almost certain to see TV
    stars like Seinfeld, Jason Alexander, Paul Shaffer, etc.
    having lunch in.
  • Upper East Side - lots of people coming down from the Harlem to spend the day strolling or biking on Madison Avenue.
7)  Upper West Side - attracts only those visitors who dare
    to stroll among the mega-wealthy -- or who want to see
    the Museum of Natural History.
8)  Upper West Side - the bastion of Jewish liberal
    political activism, lots of authors, intellectuals,
    media people, etc.   I would guess an author like
    Philip Roth would live on the Upper West Side.
9)  Upper East Side - just a bunch of moderately wealthy
    people in high-rise condos who mind their own business
    and vacation in St. Barts.

Other than those differences, they really seemed pretty similar, compared to most places. Anyone agree or disagree or have any other insights from living there longer?

I really hate having to post a question like this because it ticks some people off, but doesn anyone remember which episode George says, "Find some one better than me? Find someone better than me?!?! You could throw a dart out a window and hit someone better then me!" I love that line and haven't seen it in any syndicated episode. I fear it may have been clipped but if I knew which episode it was in I could find out for sure. I think George was in a car when saying it if that jogs any memories. Thanks!

I believe it's "The Outing" and George was trying to convice this girl to dump him. And she says "There's noone better than you!" and George says "Noone is better than me?" "You can throw a dart out the window and hit someone better than me" That's the episode where Jerry and George are mistakenly taken for being gay..and an article was printed and George tried using that to tell his girlfriend that he is really gay. I could be mistaken!! Hope i helped.

Hi folks!

In "the Clip show" there is a blooper clip where Jerry meets Kramer outside his door. Kramer is holding a bottle (green), and they're both laughing. Kramer yells in to his appartment......which episode is this???
