I just saw this episode for the third time in a short while, and I suddenly realized how well-written it is! I thought it was in the middle of the list, but now it's gotta be at the top ten. And still I don't think I've got it all...

Could anyone tip me about other episodes that grows with time?

It is interesting to see the different approaches of "recognition jokes" (or whatever they should be called) that were used in the 1st through 7th season as opposed to the 8th and 9th. In the latter they used bits like "Who is this?" while the earlier episodes used entire concepts, like the "getting out of a relationship by suggesting 'menage-a-trois'" one. Much better in my opinion. Plus, they only work with the more devoted Seinfeldians. I mean, "Who is this?" works on its own but you'll have no idea why George suggests a menage-a-trois in order to break up with a woman unless you've seen "The Switch" (stupid by George BTW, considering the result of Jerry's attempt). (too bad the episodes are following each other though. I wouldn't mind if there were 5-10 episodes in between...)

The episode I've seen a bit lately is the Car Dealership one...where Putty is supposed to get Jerry a great deal on the new Volvo.....I really love that episode! From the "High-Five" to the "Candy Lineup" to the "What do I have to do to put you two in a relationship today" It's really a classic in my opinion!
