In your opinion what is the funniest Seinfeld moment ever? There's so many good ones it's hard to decide, but for me it has to be when Kramer flipped out over Mary Harts voice. Another one I laughed so hard at I almost choked was Kramer drinking a glass of beer and smoking a cigarette at the same time. What your favorite?

George's conversation with Eric the Clown is one of my favorite moments...
ERIC: Hey, man - what are you hassling me for? This is just a gig, it's not my life. I don't know who Bozo is, what - is he a clown? GEORGE: Is he a clown? What, are you kidding me!? ERIC: Well, what is he? GEORGE: Yes, he's a clown! ERIC: Alright, so what's the big deal! There's millions of clowns! GEORGE: Alright, just forget it. ERIC: Me forget it? You should forget it! You're livin' in the past, man! You're hung up on some clown from the sixties, man!

Poppy peeing on Jerry's new sofa and then the scene with Jerry and Kramer after Poppy leaves.
I have two, and, yes, how can you choose?
1. During The Kiss Hello when George walks in on Kramer giving Jerry a big kiss. The look on his face will always slay me.
2. And someone will have to remind me which ep this is from, when Kramer is in Jerry's apartment for some reason and he rearranges the furniture, does a stand-up routine imitating Jerry and then has a party. Jerry comes home and is out- raged when Kramer didn't use a coaster. To me this is a gem. Dingo ate your baybay never fails to please either, or anything at all from The Heart Attack, see, I can't choose! Why do you make me choose?????

That is a great one. And I love the one were Kramer makes up Henningens ads at Jerrys. H-E dubble N- and it does not smell. It will be our little secret.
Your second favorite moment was from the episode "The Bookstore" where George gets flagged for bringing a book in the bathroom. I agree with you, that was a hilarious bit with Kramer!

I like "The Switch" - the planning, George's discovery of the perfect plan, going over the plan, George's anger when Jerry tells George he turned down the, I'm not sure how you pronounce this, menage a trois, and George explodes with rage, "It's like discovering plutonium, by accident!" Jerry's discussing not wanting to be an orgy guy with orgy friends and shag carpet, etc.

George's monologue in the caffe shop in the episode where George gets into the sea as a "marine biologist" ("The sea was angry that day my friends" :-)) and rescues a whale,and the moment when Kramer says: "Hole in one" :-))))))
My DH loves the episode of the "race". Where Jerry's girlfriend is named Lois! Ready, set ..... Yes Mr. Bevalqua!
One of mine was the horse and buggy incident when Kramer fed the horse a can of Farina and the ensuing gas ruptures. The looks on Kramer's disgusted, twisted face were PRICELESS.
He fed him Beef-a-Roni (chef boyardi product). He over bought at the Price Club! Funny nevertheless.
Holy crap, you're right! My memory is playing funny tricks on me...

This is the ep I thought about when I read the subject line. This has to be one of the best Seinfelds written. Beginning to end - it all is wrapped up in the final scene. Last lines of the ep when Kramer announces "Hole in One" Classic.

What about the pedicure program, when all the operators in the salon are speaking Korean and making fun of Elaine? Nana
My favourite Seinfeld momets are:
Elaine, when she is going through a dry spell (sex wise) and starts behaving like a clueless idiot --- when she was clapping at the spinning tires...
Putty, when he terrified the priests in the car by yelling "The Deviiiiiiiiiiiilllllls! Arghhhhhhhhh!"
George, when he is describing how toilet paper has not changed over the years...that is the precise moment my crush for him grew into a very large one.
Jerry, when he runs past Elaine's open arms at the race straight into his girlfriend's...
Kramer, when he is all sad because Kenny's Chicken is gone, and he's hanging out his window with a banner moaning, "Kenny, come back! Come back, Kenny!"
Newman, when he was running away from the farm house and the girl was yelling, "I Love You, Norman!"
Ahhh..... I could go on.

One of my favorites is Lt Bookman:
"Look. If you think this is about overdue fines and missing books, you'd better think again. This is about that kid's right to read a book without getting his mind warped! Or: maybe that turns you on, Seinfeld; maybe that's how y'get your kicks. You and your good-time buddies."
Bookman's speeches in the library episode were classic. The smirk on Jerry's face was priceless - you could tell he could barely keep from bursting out laughing from Bookman's Joe Friday routine. And Bookman played off of that masterfully.

That was it. Just TOO funny.
Not too friendly are you?
There are so many, but here a few of my favorites:
1st: Elaine reaches her flat carrying full bags of stuff, the telephone rings. She drops the bags and jumps to the phone. You're hearing a Faxmachine on the other side. After this she turns on her answering machine and has got 58 (!!!) new messages. Now here comes the really funny part: She listens to the first two (fax) messages, then George comes up with an "Hey, Elaine, listen I..." and she is just pressing him away! Anytime I see "The Maid" I freak out! In my opinion this is one of Elaines rare funny moments.
2nd: Georges face when he sees the bold woman in front of him ("The Scofflaw" I think)
3rd: Kramer piggy-backing the Pig-Man in "The Bris".
Greets Tim, Germany
I like that little twitch that Kramer does after seeing the nude woman across the street in "The Contest", before he rushes off to his apartment.
I was always wondering, who had the courage to pick up his money afterwards?
One of my favorite episodes is when Jerry's father goes to the Back Doctor and has to fill out the questionnaire and gets to the question about "ever having a sexually transmitted disease" and refuses to fill out the rest. Later on he claims his wallet is missing and yells "My wallets gone, my wallets gone!" I can really see this happening with my own Dad. Nana
Being a relatively newbie in Seinfeld episodes, not seen season 5 to 7, but I can put forward a classic moment:
"Stelllllllaaaaaaahhhhh"

Sid Fields in "The Old Man"
Sid: "Who let you in here?"
Jerry: "The woman, she..."
Sid: "Oh her. She steals from me. Steals my money. She says she doesn't speak English. My ass she doesn't speak English. Plays that freakin' "voodoo" music, tries to hypnotize me. She thinks she's gonna turn me into a zombie and then rob me blind. Well, I wasn't born yesterday. I may drop dead today, but I sure as hell wasn't born yesterday. Now get the hell out of my house..."
Jerry: "Mr. Fields, I'm here to spend some time with you."
Sid: "Oh, really. Are you the boyfriend? I know she's got a boyfriend. Are you going to kill me? I'm an old man for crying out loud, you gonna kill an old man, you coward?!?"
I just love that cranky old man.
I agree completely. This is a highly underrated episode.
The Cock fighting one. Kramer tells Jerry that Marcelleno will take down his check as soon as little Jerry wins his cock fight. Jerys simple smile, followed by that "What?" is priceless . has me slapping my knee everytime.

He also gets a big kick out of Kramer talking about switching from briefs to boxers...something about flipping and flopping.
To quote Elaine, "I don't know how you guys walk around with those things."
I love the look she gives the guy when she falls into the aisle. The funniest moment in that episode for me is when George is buying the "Time" magazine. George: "But you are Blanche... You *are* in the shackles. Oh, I can't wait to read my *Time* magazine! Laaaast copy, too. Maybe I'll read it tomorrow-- in the park! It's supposed to be a beeyootiful day!

Er
I'll do ti by season. Yes, there are many by season and I left out some classics, anyway, here goes.
Season 1.
The stake out. At Sagman, Bennet, Robbins, Oppenheim and Taft's building.
Jerry: I'm a little nervous. George: Yeah, me too... Jerry: If I see her, what do I say that I'm doing here in the building? George: You came to see me; I work in the building. Jerry: What do you do? George: I'm an *architect*. Jerry: You're an *architect*? George: I'm not?
Season 2.
The phone message.
Phone: Hi, it's Carol, I 'll get back to you. (Beep) George: Uhm, hi, it's George, George Costanza, remember me? The guy that didn't come up for coffee. You see, I didn't realise that coffee didn't really mean ... well, whatever. Anyway, it was fun. It was, erm, it was fun, so, oh boy, uhm, so, you call me back. If you want, it's up to you, you know, whatever you wanna do. Either way. The ball's in your court. So, er, take it easy. (Hangs up. Jerry enters) Jerry: I'm just gonna get my jacket, I'll meet you downstairs. What's the matter, did you call? (Elaine enters) George: Got her machine. I'm dead, I'm a dead man. That's it. I'm dead, I'm a dead man. Dead man. Jerry: What did you say? George: I don't know what the hell I said. I gave her an ultimatum and there's nothing I can do. It's a machine. The little light is blinking right now: 'Come and listen to the idiot. Hey everybody, the idiot's on!'
Season 3.
The pen.
MORTY: You know Jack, you've got a hell of a nerve taking that kid's pen. JACK: Whose pen? MORTY: His pen. JACK: This happens to be my pen. MORTY: You didn't give it to him. JACK: What are you talking about? He pratically begged me for it. MORTY: Where do you come off with this crap? JACK: Listen, do you think I take everything everybody offers me? You offered me sponge cake yesterday. Did I take it? MORTY: You said you didn't want it! JACK: Of course I wanted it! I love sponge cake! MORTY: Then who the hell said you couldn't have any? I mean what the hell do I care whether you have sponge cake? (Jerry and Elaine can't beleive what they're hearing) JACK: Because I saw the look on your face last week when I took the scotch tape! MORTY: Ahh! Ahh! So YOU got the scotch tape! I've been looking all over for it!
Season 4.
The outing.
Sharon: And do your parents know? Jerry: Know *what*? George: My parents? They don't know *what's* goin' on... Jerry: Oh God, you're that girl in the coffee shop that was eavesdropping on us. I *knew* you looked familiar! Jerry: There's been a big misunderstanding here! We did that whole thing for your benefit. We knew you were eavesdropping. That's why my friend said all that. It was on purpose! We're not gay! Not that there's anything wrong with that... George: No, of course not... Jerry: I mean that's fine if that's who you are... George: Absolutely... Jerry: I mean I have many gay friends... George: My *father* is gay...
Season 5.
The puffy shirt.
MAN: I've never seen hands like these before.. WOMAN: They're so soft and milky white. PHOTOGRAPHER: You know who's hands they remind me of? Ray McKigney. MAN: Ugh.. Ray. PHOTOGRAPHER: He was it. GEORGE: Who was he? PHOTOGRAPHER: The most exquisite hands you've ever seen.. Oh, he had it all. GEORGE: What happened to him? MAN: Tragic story, I'm afraid. He could've had any woman in the world.. but none could match the beauty of his own hand.. and that became his one true love.. GEORGE: You mean, uh..? MAN: Yes. he was not.. master of his domain. GEORGE: But how.. uh..? MAN: The muscles.. became so strained with.. overuse, that eventually the hand locked into a deformed position, and he was left with nothing but a claw. He traveled the world seeking a cure.. acupuncturists.. herbalists.. swamis.. nothing helped. Towards the end, his hands became so frozen the was unable to manipulate utensils, and was dependent on Cub Scouts to feed him. I hadn't seen another pair of hands like Ray McKigney's.. until today. You are his successor. I.. only hope you have a little more self-control. GEORGE: You don't have to worry about me. I won a contest.
Season 6.
The label maker.
Newman: Great streak of luck I'm having. First, Kramer almost beat me at Risk but I narrowly escaped, and then Tim Whatley gives me his Super Bowl ticket. Jerry: Can you move over at all?! Newman: And then, just as I'm about to go, these boxes show up at the post office with no labels. No labels, Jerry. You know what that means? Freebies!! I got this great mini-TV and a VCR, oh it's unbelievable. Jerry: An inch! Can you move over an inch?!?
Season 7.
The secret code.
Leapin' Larry: Try the scanner, see if you can pick up anything. Jerry turns on the scanner. Captain: What are you doing, Kramer?! You're all over the road! Kramer: Don't worry, Cap, I can handle it! Jerry: Kramer? Cut to Kramer losing control of the truck. Captain: You're losing control! Hard right! Hard right! Cut to Jerry holding the scanner. he hears screaming, a crashing sound, and then static. Jerry: Ah, that's a shame.
Season 8.
The chicken roaster.
Jerry: Seth, you're the manager, can't you turn off the sign? Seth: Jerry, I lied, I'm just he assistant manager. Seth (On loud speaker): Number sixty seven, family feast. Newman: Number 67, right here, right here! Jerry: Hello Newman. Newman: Hello Jerry. Seth: And don't forget your steamed broccoli. Jerry: Hold it, Newman, you wouldn't eat broccoli if it was deep fried in chocolate sauce. Newman: I love broccoli, its good for you. Jerry: Really? Then maybe you'd like to have a piece? [Jerry opens container. Newman takes a piece] Newman: Gladly. [Newman spits it out] Newman: Vile weed! Jerry: It's Kramer isn't it? The greasy door knob the constant licking of the fingers, he's hooked to the chicken isn't he? Newman: Yes, now please. Someone, honey mustard.
Season 9.
The merv griffin show.
KRAMER: Okay. a little later, we're gonna be talking with animal expert Jim Fowler. FOWLER: Where are the cameras? KRAMER: But first, we're talking with Jerry. Okay, Jerry, uh, you drugged a woman in order to play with her toy collection. How do you feel about that? JERRY: It was great! I've done it a few more time since then. KRAMER: And she doesn't know anything about this? JERRY: No, not a thing. Newman: laughs KRAMER: Well, Jerry, we have a little surprise for you! Come on out, Celia! CELIA: What kind of a sick twisted creep are you? NEWMAN and KRAMER: Woah. JERRY: What is this? What is she doing here? KRAMER: It's the new format. Scandals and Animals. Go with it. CELIA: If you think you can drug me and play with my toys, you got another thing coming, buddy! NEWMAN: Go girl! JERRY: Well, what kind of woman drinks a whole box of wine? NEWMAN and KRAMER: Ohhh! GEORGE: Mister Fowler, I have a squirrel here that is a miracle of modern science! KRAMER: George I told you we're booked! FOWLER: Careful. Hawks and squirrels don't get along together.
