I don't have time to go through every posting about this ep so I don't know if someone else might've said this, but I think that "The Betrayal" should have been the series finale.

The last scene with Jerry and Kramer meeting for the first time and Kramer looking into Jerry's apartment, as if to visualize all of their futures (and our pasts), would have brought the series to an elegant and poignant conclusion, and reminded us of the circular nature of existance--like finding a beginning at the end.

I think that is a great idea. It certainly would be a better send off then say "St. Elsewhere" when the whole show ended up being a story in a young boy's mind.

I was thinking something similar. Actually, I thought it at the time, and I still think, this show should have ended with the Bette Midler episode. That ending to that season ender was good enough. ;)

I think you've got a good point. Though it's too late now, it would have been a very fitting way to put it all together.

Oh well. At least I can give a big thumbs up to the cast/crew/writers on this one. It's a classic.
