😂 Loved it

Viewers are divided on the episode, with strong praise for the Barber of Seville music and comedic elements, though some felt it was just okay and that The Lip Reader was the season's best so far.

I loved this episode! In my opinion, it was the best since "The Contest" Seinfeld definitely seems to be getting back on track...

(and I >LOVED< the fact that they used the Barber of Seville music. Prob- ably my favorite classical piece of all time.)

     Hmm, I actually didn't like this week's as much, and I definitely
     wouldn't say it was the best since The Contest.  (The fact that I
     don't think The Contest was the single best episode is another thread.)
     So far this season I think the Lip Reader was best.  That scene where
     Jerry and George are trying to prevent their conversation from being
     lipread has got to be the funniest thing I've seen on TV all year.
     But I do agree that going back to topics that you find in ordinary life,
     such as a less-than-flattering new 'due, is a big step in the right
     direction...
     Another topic.  Did anyone else think that it was all in the way his
     hair was wet down and combed?  Any takers on whether or not he even
     got his hair cut at all for that ep?

I'd say he went for the 'Grease' look...Overall, just an OK episode... It seems like they needed more time(like a full hour)...

I loved this episode! I never laughed so much by myself. I thought it was great. I respond to another article. I do think that it was Jerry's hair just wet to look short though it did look like it was cut. It is a toss up.

I thougth that the show was the worst this season and one of the worst overall. The bit about the bachelor auction didn't go anywhere and was un-original and predictable. The part with George was a good idea at first but was dragged on too long. And the main part with the barbers was ok, the choice to make it somewhat in an operatic style was obvious (since they were italian barbers) and the idea of showing a relationship like a love affair was done before on the episode with Keith Hernandez (showing the freindship between Keith and Jerry like a first date or something). Bleah!
