Heres mine: "How could you give $12 million to Hideki Irabu?"- Frank Costanza
Best line in the finale?
Fans discuss their favorite lines from the Seinfeld series finale, with particular appreciation for Frank's quip about Hideki Irabu and other memorable moments.
"What's with you people and the cheese?!?"
Jim
Elaine:"Puddy, don't wait for me!" Puddy:"Okay."
Objection! This woman is a low talker!
This line was weak:
Jerry (with clenched teach): The Virgin!
Jackie: You got little pet names for everyone, don't you?

Jackie said that after the Soup Nazi appeared.
My favorite line was actually a funny line in itself, but it made me laugh the most. It was when The Honorable Arthur Vandelay was announced. I don't even remeber what George and Jerry were saying after he walked in, because my friends and I were laughing so hard. Actually, one person in the room wasn't laughing, as he didn't watch the show regularly, and we had to explain it to him :)
I thought about everything Jackie Childs said was funny.
I thought about everything Jackie said was funny.
Hmmmmmm. There were several great lines. My favorites: Jackie Chiles- I am shocked and chagrined! Mystified and stupified. This trail is outrageous!
Jerry- The virgin!!
And my favorite non-spoken part, the please expression on George's face when he hears his mocking of the fat man being played back on the tape.
Maybe not the BEST line in the finale, but at the NBC meeting when George is introduced to the new network president and Jerry mumbles to him, "...don't spell it..." which of course he immediately does, exercising his dubious talent of being able to spell most any name. This was so subtle I didn't even notice it on first viewing, but it cracked me up on the second.
<TO REPLY REMOVE 'NOSPAM' FROM THE END OF MY E-MAIL ADDRESS. THANKS!>
I'll cheat a bit and note that the best "line" wasn't a spoken line, but was the Rabbi's saddened and stunned visual reaction when the testimony comes out about Elaine's penchant for controceptive sponges.
I'll have to concur...only I'd include the entire court audience... the way they all recoiled in horror at that revelation, as well as others...particularly the virgin's remark about the contest... The were appalled; as if the new york 4 had committed war crimes!!! Ver funny.

Yeah, I was just thinking about that great facial expression. I also liked the part near the beginning when George neglected to close the bathroom door, leading Jerry to say, "Let's all grab a bucket and head up to Jerry's place. He's having a pee party!" Or something along those lines.
The best line went something like this:
Frank to Estelle: "C'mon we gotta get outta here......before the traffic!"
I'd have to say the best line was a Kramer-ism. They were all in the coffee shop deciding where they should go with NBC's private jet. When they finally decide on France, Kramer does a little, "Wee Wee" and mumbles something Kramer-like as if he is speaking in French...great way to epitomize all of Kramer...
In article ,
DA.State your name. Soup Nazis: Yav Kassim DA. Could you spell that? Soup Nazis: NO! Next question. Chugman!!!
I second this as the best line in the finale, I laughed when I saw it the second time knowing that it was coming up

A weak parody of Kramerisms. Symptomatic of the whole script.

Speaking of Kramerisms, my wife hardly ever watches the show. But I happened to be watching a rerun one time and it was a show in which Jerry was trying to connect with this one very nice babe (the kind which always seem to show up). Anyway, late in the show, Kramer is telling how he dated her and I think ended up in bed, and Jerry just can't BELIEVE it. He cries out "how?" and Kramer says "I know how to punch the buttons" and does this rapid eye-blink/eyebrow-boing thing that just cracked my wife up. And she's a hard judge. So we are in agreement that this is one of the funniest Kramerisms we ever saw (because Kramer is NOT exactly Don Juan).
I definitely thought the best lines were those given during the final closing credits. That entire stand-up routine when they're in prison was hilarious.
"Anybody here from Cell Block D? <mumbling from prisoners> I'll be sure and talk slower. No, I'm kidding. My friend George is in Cell Block D." Kramer's laughing hysterically and George kind of rolls his eyes and waves, and a faceless prisoner yells out, "I'll cut you."

[shaking head] I thought it was a parody of standup comedy, the sort of thing they formerly would let Bania do (or like Cliff Claven once did on Cheers).
Jerry doing an impression of a poor Jerry-imitator.
< Just goes to show how opinions differ ... both TV Guide and EW cited the closing standup in the prison as the finest moment in the final. TV Guide called it consumate Seinfield.<
"Oh yeah, why don't we just have a pee party? 'Hey, everybody, let's grab a bucket and head to Jerry's, we're having a pee party."
"Pee Party" -twice.
AT THE END WHEN ESTELLE FAINTED AND FRANK SAID SOMETHING LIKE " HURRY UP, WE GOT TO BEAT THE TRAFFIC."
That's it!!! That's it!! I played it back about 10 times!
Best line in the finale-- a two way tie:
The Soup Nazi being asked to spell his name. "NO, NEXT QUESTION."
Jackie Childs, walking away with Sidra, says to Jerry "they're real and they're SPECTACULAR!!"
Here are mine:
- Kramer: "Jerry... it's L.A. Nobody leaves!"
- Elaine: "Puddy, don't wait for me." Puddy: "Alright."
--- Brian, The Dark Knight
when the soup nazi was asked to spell his name : "NO, next question"
HAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
