Am I alone in thinking that this pseudo-science-fiction movie bit was a scream? It's from the episode where George went to the holistic healer, and Jerry sees this scene again on TV in the hospital. The guy is screaming,"It's like flaming globes of Sigmund...like flaming globes!" BTW, I believe the actor who played this part was Larry David. Can anyone confirm or disaffirm this?

The "Flaming globes of Sigmund" actor was Larry David, he was also Frank Costanza's caped lawyer.

The Holisitic healer episode is one of my very favorites. Kramer:"He's holistic George, Holistic." Jerry:"Eckman, isn't he in prison?" "Kramer:"No, he's out, he got out!" George:"Holistic...."

Did anyone see this episode in syndication the other night? it's called 'the heart attack' and in it, jerry writes down a comedy bit in his sleep and when he wakes up he can't understand what he wrote. various interpretations from various sources include: "fax me some halibut" (jerry), "don't mess with johnny" (elaine), "salami, salami, bologna" (nurse) & [my favorite] "Cleveland 117, San Antonio 109 (holistic healer)".

The line turns out to be "Flaming Globes of Sigmund", which comes from a movie jerry had been watching with this space-guy in this weird silver outfit. guess who plays the guy? (seen once on jerry's tv & once in the hospital with george)

LARRY DAVID
