What episode and what is the general dialogue wherein George doesn't want to think too hard about comedy? I think he says something to Jerry about a certain word and then responds: "Now there's a word you don't have to think about." George thinks some comedian is funny; Jerry thinks he sucks? Also, does Coney Island come into question in any specific episodes? Thanks for any help.

In "The Butter Shave," everyone but Jerry think Kenny Banya is funny.

I believe Coney Island is mentioned in "The Subway."

The "Subway" was very interesting in that they are together at the beginning and then go their separate ways. They are never shown together after they exit their first train. Only NYC could have this story line.

If I remember George meets a hooker. Elaine gets stuck on a train. Jerry meets the naked man. Weird! Doesn't Kramer go to the OBT parlor?

I don't think they even get together at the end?

That is correct - in fact one could consider New York City as a fifth main character in the show since much of the humour and situations were played off the culture of that unique city.

That's "The Butter Shave". I just finished transcribing this episode for Mike's script site last week, how fortuitous for you.

Here's the scene you mentioned.

Jerry: Hello? Yeah, this is Jerry Seinfeld. What? No. No! No! No!! No!!! Thank you. (Hangs up.) I don't believe this. They've added Bania to the network showcase and he's going on right after me.

George: So what, he's got a couple of good jokes.

Jerry: Like what, Ovaltine? Why do dogs drink out of the toilet? Shopping carts with one bad wheel?

George: That's true, that always happens to me.

Jerry: You think that's funny?

George: I don't know, I like stuff you don't have to think about too much.

Jerry: You like Bania's act. You're a closet Bania fan!

George: Maybe I am.

Jerry: Oh, I'm gonna puke.

George: Puke! That's a funny word. Puke. (laughing) puke! Don't have to think about that.

First one that comes to mind is "The Subway", where Jerry goes to Coney Island with the naked man he meets on the train.

Did George also like it when Kramer was covered in butter, parsley, etc. and Newman chased him on the stage in the middle of Bania's act? Or was it just the network suits? Paul McWig wrote in message news:mVdx4.4650$[email]...
