This item is a CD which contains a encoded video of the Seinfeld Episode "THE BETRAYAL" but edited so as to play forwards in chronological order, not in reverse time order as originally indented and aired. Will play on any PC with a CD-Rom drive. (MPEG-1)

Just place the CD in your drive and an automatic menu will appear to play your video choice.

Very Funny to watch, and in my opinion, funnier than the original concept.

I am asking for �12 Sterling (UK) for shipping worldwide.

Please e-mail [email] for details of how to receive this wonderful, funny and rare Video on CD.

Ewww why is it re-edited... the reverse time order is what made it one of the best episode ever, from any sitcoms around.

That was one of the worst seinfelds ever, I'll give it some credit, at the time it was cool, because everyone was wondering what seinfeld was going to do next in season nine. But it really doesn't stand on its own other than that. Huge Seinfeld Fan Sure are a lot of Brits on this NG (not that there's anything wrong with that) Donny McHugh

And yet it was one of the two episodes they selected to represent Season 9 for the Outstanding Comedy Series Emmy in '97.

I know you just wrote this because you want to sell more copies, but if you've actually watched it fowards as well as backwards, you know that the original is much funnier. The scenes, as written, are not funny unless shown in their correct order. When watched your way, the punchlines come at the beginning of each scene, but their setups occur at the end of the following scenes. How funny is that? Think about George's Something's not sitting well/Clams Casino bit. If shown in chronological order, that's not even a joke, and the timing within the scenes would make no sense at all. Or Elaine's "India? Yeah right." line at the end would have been unnecessary if uttered at the beginning. And the scenes of Jerry moving in, of and meeting George and Susan at the coffee shop would have been entirely superfluous. Jeez, there's plenty of other examples.

Anyway, good luck selling your CD.

But don't try to pull the wool over the eyes of true Seinfeld fans. ;)

Dave wrote about the re-editing of "The Betrayal":

I agree entirely! The reverse editing is what makes it so unique and witty. Plus, the reverse timeframe confuses the numb TV watcher and forces him to utter an un-inspired monosyllabic "uh? i dont get it, it sucks", which, in itself, is worth a million episodes.
