Hi,

Every one seems to be complaining that too many fake final episode stories are posted. While no one actually knows what's true and what's not, I would just like to encourage every one to post their final episode ideas on this newsgroup, for I think many of them are very interesting.

I particularly liked the one where Jerry discovers he lived in a fake world all along... I don't care if it's true or not, I think it's just a great story and that whoever invented it is brilliant.

So if you've got any ideas on how to end this great show, please post them and don't mind the whiners...

That story was very similar to a skit on the Conan O'Brien show a while back. Conan took a second to introduce his brother who was in the audience....then Andy had him arrested and told Conan that the whole show had been a setup to capture his brother....Andy was was a detective, and Max, and Bobby the stagehand....Conan finally realized that he was not the funny talk show host that he had been for the last 4 or 5 years..... you had to see it, it was pretty funny. (shameless conan plug)

oh yeah...go seinfeld!

Usually when a half-hour show like Seinfeld has lasted this long, the finale is an hour-long episode. I've heard that the last Seinfeld will in fact be TWO-hours long. Anybody got any info on this?

An NBC promo my friend and I spotted on Saturday confirms this, unless they're referring to the Jay Leno interview.

Here is the REAL poop:

There will be an hour long final episode followed by an hour long mockumentary on the making of the episode.

I'm pretty sure.

Seething over Keith Hernedez's success with women, George becomes convinced that Hernandez's sexual power over women resides in his mustache. George carefully steals the mustache with a pair of scissors when Hernandez falls asleep on Jerry's toilet. George then goes around town wearing Keith's mustache to mixed and surprising results.

Kramer and Jerry discover their true feelings for each other, hastily get married (after creating a new concept in marriage: the "man-marriage" which they hammer out as a Platonic arrangement centered around sports- appreciation and the institution of the "shared refrigerator") .

And finally to utterly confound, surprise, and dismay the audience, Larry David left the Elaine character out completely.

   Also:  the actor Wayne Knight, a.k.a. Newman was forced to lose 200 pounds
for the last episode by Jerry and Larry who confined him to an abandoned
missile silo in upstate New York to effect the crash weight loss.  Newman was
skinnier than Kramer !    Wayne Knight has apparently been passing himself off
in a fat suit recently, and successfully concealing his new appearance.
          How Newman's thinness works into the final plot I can't remember as I
was completely smash-face-pasted when I saw it.  (No, I was not at the show and
was travelling from Hong-Kong to Beijing-  incredibly there are a few boot leg
tapes of this last episode -  but all of them are somehow mysteriously and
exclusively in the hands of a few Chinese passenger-freighter crews who sail
the Far East.)

Could somebody please tell me... The final episode of Seinfeld is supposed to be the biggest secret since the advent of the atom bomb, but yet EVERYBODY in cyberspace knows what it is, who's going to be on, the entire plot, etc., etc. I am constantly seeing comments on this in the newsgroup. I didn't think that there would be room at the studio for 100's of thousands of people or are there simply a much larger number of psychics in the country than I thought existed. How is it that EVERYONE is an expert on this????????

SchlepIMFlashr

I've been scouring this NG for credible reports on the final episode, but haven't found anything but some obvious guessing and conjecture. What posts have you been looking at??? When will someone with the inside poop break their oath of secrecy and deliver the goods via the anonymity of the internet? Your clueless cyber-buddies wait with baited breath!!!!!

IMFlashrSchlep

Yeah, I think the people who are telling about the final episode are just making wild guesses so that they can say: HA, HA, I know something you don't know.

Yes, these people love to think they have some inside scoop to lord over everyone else. I decided that no matter what I see, hear or read, I wont know the real deal until its all over on May 14th at 10pm.

YOU DIDN'T HEAR THIS FROM ME:

  NBC greenlighted 14.3 million dollars in post production, computer generated
special effects imagery,  which of course the audience/people on the set never
saw and had no idea would later be added.  In concert with this:  some
revolutionary digital editing by Larry David, -along with a couple of solo
scenes featuring just Jerry Seinfeld which will be added as well (filmed in
Norway).
  The result will fundamentally alter the plot and radically surprise even
David's/Seinfeld's own cast when it is broadcast!   As per the digital editing:
 the cast didn't even realize what they were filming- some bits of some scenes
will be cut and pasted to others etc. etc. ,   creating an entirely different
story!   This explains the painstaking 9 day straight filming which took place.
 PLOT TEASERS: Seething over Keith Hernandez's success with women,  George
becomes convinced that Hernandez's sexual power over women resides in his
mustache.  George carefully steals the mustache with a pair of scissors when
Hernandez falls asleep on Jerry's toilet.  George then goes around town wearing
the stolen facial hair to mixed and surprising results.
  Kramer and Jerry come to terms with their true feelings for each other, and
hastily marry (after creating a new matrimonial concept:  "the man-marriage"
which they hammer out as a platonic heterosexual arrangement centered around
sports-appreciation and the sacred institution of the "shared refrigerator".)
  And finally to utterly confound, surprise, and dismay the audience,  Larry
David left the Elaine character out completely  -"What- are they gonna get mad
and quit watching after this if I don't fulfill their every expectation and
dream?"  Mr. David quipped.
  Also:  the actor Wayne Knight, a.k.a. Newman was forced to lose 200 pounds
for this last episode by Jerry and Larry who confined him to an abandoned
missile silo in upstate New York to effect the crash weight loss.  Newman is
skinnier than Kramer in the goodbye episode!  (Wayne has been keeping out of
public as much as possible since the last episode went into the can.  He has
also been provided with a special effects fat suit and facial and hand
prosthetics to conceal his extreme change in appearance while he gains his
weight back in time for summer appearances.)

They haven't given any plot details, and they have only confirmed a few of the people who are going to show up in the final episode.

I know a few things that WILL happen: George gets the final line(s) and there will be a scene near the end that takes place in a wedding chapel.

Radio DJ Mancow says his source told him that George and Elaine get married and die in a plane crash on their way to Paris. (Just trying to fan 'the final episode rumor' flames).

Any way it ends, Sienfeld is the greatest show.

"...his mother is a mudder?"

David

All these rumors are exactly that--rumors. They were started to keep people from pestering them about it. You won't know the plot line until it airs. Forget about it.

I think the final line should be, as Jerry walks away from the group with his usual "that's a shame" ambivalence,

"Thanks for nothing!"

Sorry if this is old news, I heard the last line was George's and it was "So what am I gonna do now?"

Anyone else heard this?

What if the final episode is just Jerry wrapping up a stand up set in a club. All these years were just one routine told to one audience.

That is probably the most creative thing I have read here in weeks.

someone told me that at the end George is going to wake up, Susan will be there with him, and it will be like the whole last 2 years was a dream.

Pretty far fetched, eh.

I absolutely love the idea of the final series being the end of one giant stand up routine. Reminds me of the last Newhart ep at the Stratford where it was just all a dream. BTW some magazine in Australia says it "knows" the final plot line includes a peurto rican and refers to where Kramer gets a million dollars to pay for an apartment. I suspect it is just a rumor but does anybody know where it originated?

Well they interviewed a walk-on extra who appeared in the 2nd-last episode. Apparently, at the end of the episode, Kramer meets with an elderly woman to discuss buying a large apartment in Manhattan. The asking price is apparently $2 million but Kramer replies that "money is no object" and he leaves.

So the extra is saying, "well, where the hell did Kramer get all that money?". And then *Jerry* shows up wanting to buy it.

The extra speculates that "It seems like it must be left over for its conclusion in the last episode. How could they have both been looking at a $2 million dollar apartment when the show gives no sign they've come into money?"

So maybe the final episode revolves around Kramer becoming a millionaire.

How soon we forget...remember, Kramer is rolling in it now because his coffee table book about coffee tables was being turned into a movie...from "The Wizard" when Kramer moved down to Florida...

Sorry, but what your DJ said is also rumors. No one knows what is going to happen. But I'll bet that George gives the historic final line (no one really knows for sure what it is though)

I'm just a visitor, since I've never watched even a single episode. I think in all I might have seen less than 20 minutes in snatches of various shows.

So if you want a disinterested and unbiased evaluation, here I am.

So what am I going to do now?

(or it could be "gonna do now?")

Great rumor. Too bad that's all it is. Don't you know that any theory you hear on the internet (or anywhere, really) about the final episode is wrong?

I like Entertainment Weekly's final episode, Kramer gets a computer and spreads ridiculous rumors about Seinfeld's final episode.

In article ,

It's funny all the rumors that circulate. I'm glad that the show is going off the air though. It really went downhill. I hope that the final episode will make up for it. There's so much hype I don't know if it can live up to it.

Newsweek already confirmed that the final line wouldn't be "So what do I do know", they said it would be a real big crowd pleaser

The final line of the final episode will be as famous as Orson Wells' in "Citizen Kane".

Jerry is on his knees and says "Miss Mirsky, How could you do this to me???"

You think you've got a problem. The fascists running the ten network here in Australia have broken into the last series after only four episodes just to show OLD repeats (and not very good ones at that). At this rate, they will keep us waiting until Christmas.

We are forgetting Kramer has a kid. Remember the woman who quit the army. She was supposed to have Kramer's kid. (The Kramer name lives on). The producers have a kid Kramer come on the final episode. Kramer then decideds he needs a wife. So he comes in with a crumpled piece of paper, with Elaine's signature. Kramer says,"You have to marry me Elaine. 10 years ago you said and I quote, "If were not married in 10 years, will marry each other." As for Newman he finally gets his wish, he marries Elaine, and gets his transfer to Hawaii. Elaine says, "He must be the one, he's the only one I haven't dated yet." Kramer and Newman decided to joust for Elaine's love. Kramer gets into his old green car, and hangs out the window with a shower curtain rod, and Newman gets in his mail truck with a broom. The both joust infront of the building and end up smashing each others cars. Newman looses his transfer to Hawaii for smashing US postal property. Newman then decideds to sue Kramer for damages. Kramer then hires Jackie Childs the black attorney and Newman has the postmaster general for his case. The judge comes back with a verdict but Kramer and Newman making up, and they begin hugging and crying while leaving the courtroom. George's dream comes true, his parents die. George gets a call from the hospital saying that his parents are seriously ill. George goes to the hospital with the gang (like at the end of the glue licking episode) and the doctor says their was nothing I could do. Jerry says what happened were they in a car accident, thinking how could they both die at the same time. The Doctor answers no a heart attack brought on by extreme stress. Jerry says, "You mean they both died at the same time, both from heart attacks. The Doctor says, "yes we have never seen a case like it." George asks if they had any last words, and the doctor says yes. (flashback to the operating room) Your mother said "You didn't throw out the garbage." Your father said, "shut the hell up"(at that moment a flat sign goes on the heart meters at the same time.) Newman and Kramer both tell Elaine they cannot marry her, because it would break up their friendship, and Elaine says, "back to the drawing board." Jerry says, "thats it! Elaine lets get married." Elaine says "yeah why not. George says, " this is great, now I don't have to pay the whole catering bill" Series ends in jewish temple. They are saying some last words about George's parents. George says, "Now that I'm done here lets have a wedding." George pushes the coffins out of the way and Elaine and Jerry step up. The only problem is that the Rabbi will not marry them, because it is the same Rabbi that has a crush on Elaine. Newman steps up and says, I can do it. Jerry says, what!. Newman says, "yes I'm jewish, Hersel Newman is my name, I kept it quite because many have been persecuted at the post office." Newman hobbles up the stairs of the stage. He says, "We are here today to marry this JERRY Seinfeld (in Newman voice), and Elaine (in a sweet voice). Benice. Yadda Yadda Yadda I pronounce you man and wife.

No. In that episode he said, "Hey Jerry, the Kramer name might live on, she's late, SHE'S LATE!!! (Kramer gives two thumbs up)
