I thought tonight's episode was by far the best this season--hands down. Everything about it was great. I haven't laughed that hard at an episode all season(well, maybe the Bizarro Jerry episode was close). It was absolutely brilliant and if any of the so-called Seinfeld experts in this NG don't think this one was funny, they don't have a clue. Hope next week's is half as good as tonight's--if so, it will be hillarious too. Later.
11\14 episode--by far, the best this season!
Ditto... best show in quite a while. My fave parts had to be the Jerry<-->Kramer reversal type scene things... Jerry actually had to *act*. <G>

I don't know. I thought the show was extremely funny, but that Jerry-Kramer reversal didn't do it for me. I thought that some of Kramer's lines were kind of forced. What do you think?

I agree but I thought Jerry's quasi-Kramer was clumsier yet. The "giddy-up" made me cringe. People can rave about this episode all they want, but the show has become so farcical and too concerted--its humor once had such subtle and fluid charm.
I suppose so... I guess it might be the fact that I can picture Jerry becoming Kramer-ish, moreso than Kramer being so calm like Jerry... :)

I loved when Jerry said "You bet"!
I thought the Jerry-Kramer reversal was the greatest. It was even to the point that Kramer was sitting in the coffee shop with George, talking just like Jerry does when George rambles about something. Then George says he can't relate to Jerry anymore, because he's too much like...you!! And Jerry going on NO sleep, then getting the ice cream out of the freeze and talking just like Kramer, even down to having a friend who could get the hat for Elaine.
I agree, this episode was the best of the season.

While I agree that this show was one of the best this season, for me it still wasn't as good as "Bizarro Jerry". I'd give this one the title of second best ep of the season so far. Loved the Jerry/Kramer juxtaposition. Hilarious.

First off I want you all to know that I am a die hard fan of seinfeld. I will root in favor of every new episode of this season.I will view each episode with a sympathetic understanding. But in this new season, there have been a few clunkers. Please don't Flame me for my opinion(s). I feel the best episodes so far this season have been "Elaine dancing" and "Bizarro Jerry", I feel that last year was overall a good typical seinfeld season, this year so far has a way to go. My wife and I tape every episode, because we know it won't be around forever. I hope the best for this season.

Dear Mr. Frank Constanza:
Please forgive Me for forgetting to add mention of your catering episode as one of this seasons best.

Funny, funny stuff. What about Peterman's "the horror.."from Brando in Apocalypse Now?
r3t.
Loved the "Apocalyse Now" reference, but I thought it would've been even funnier if Peterman had had a shaved head (or fake "baldie" scalp) to make the Brando/Kurtz comparison even more vivid. Seeing Peterman without his trademark shock of white hair would have visually added to his "insanity."
Glad that they worked him back into the series, though.
I think the funniest thing in the episode was Mr. Marbles. I lost it when Jerry heard the scuffling footprints, looking horrified, and stammers " Mr Marbles!" Then at the end when Mr. Marbles actually walks across the bedroom, tears were rolling down my face at that point.

Who is Mr. Marbles?

I am pretty sure that it was a classic Twilight Zone episode where a mana- manna- pupet comes alive and starts talking. I know that it has been done before with Tales from the Crypt as well, so I am not hte most perfect source, and I am sure that there are fifty people behind me with follow up posts who are talking about this right now. -Simon

-Drunk driver getting arrested on COPSI missed the end of the episode. Did that actually happen? That is TOO FUNNY! Love it. -Simon
