What would everybody's 5 favourite episodes be? Mines would be (I've only seen Seasons 1,2,6,7 and a bit of 8), no specific order:

The Soup Nazi The Race The Pony Remark The Switch The Bizzaro Jerry

How about everyone else?

I don't think I've seen every episode myself, but here goes:

The Bizzaro Jerry The Merv Griffin Show (The backward episode)

The other favorites are just a jumble of favorite lines and scenes in my demented brain

The 5 episodes I'll play to someone who doesn't know Seinfeld:

1-The Contest 2-The Outing 3-The Soup Nazi 4-The Marine Biologist 5-The Fusilli Jerry

If they're not hooked after that, they are hopeless.

Welcome back Mohamel. Haven't heard from you for a long time. I am glad to see the Switch on so many people's favourite list. It was so filled with content and such a turning point in the show.

I'm not such a episodename-knower. But I like Soup Nazi, Serenity Now, Hamptons and the episode where Jerry and Elaine are seeing the same guy who turns out to be a freak in a clownssuit. In that episode Kramer and George also try to sell their opera tickets. Great show!

Which show is the Switch??

The Switch is the show in which ...
- Jerry wants to date the room mate of his present girlfriend
- George invents the manage a trois caper
- George has the "dementia" and "Plutonium" lines
      GEORGE: Do you ever just get down on your knees and thank god that
      you know me and have access to my dementia?
      GEORGE: Are you crazy? This is like discovering Plutonium ... by
accident.
- We meet Kramer's mother
- We learn Kramer's first name
- George dates a bulimic? model
- Elaine loses a Bruline tennis racquet
- Newman makes out with Babs

Anywhere else this 22 minute gem would be a mini series. It is so tightly and intricately written that it has to be seen many times to appreciate all the content in the episode.

I don't believe I've ever seen the Outing. What is it about?

Mostly has to do about Jerry and George being mistaken for gays by a cute reporter from a NYU newspaper

The bonus in that episode is the scene in the hospital where George visits his mother (exact same thing as in "The Contest " ) and again there is someone getting a sponge bath behind a curtain but this time it's a man and a male nurse and George can't help but look.

Last but but not least it's the episode that spawned the famous or unfamous "Not that there's anything wrong with that!!"

Thanks I got it! Okay, I guess I'd have to add The Outing and The Contest to my top 5 list.

Interesting distinction you have there, Mohamel. I too was thinking of two types of Seinfeld episodes, being the completely hilarious episodes listed under 'play to someone unfamiliar with Seinfeld' and the episodes that are so bloody spot-on that it must have been that, that Larry David must have been looking for.

An episode like The Hamptons is a perfect example for the latter, The Soup Nazi for the former. The brilliant thing about The Outing is that it fits in both and therefore deserves its call as arguably the best episode ever.

Not to mention Paula Marshall starring.

But, I couldn't *absolutely* pin down just 5.

I guess I just prefer to see the dark side of things. The glass is always half-empty. And cracked. And I just cut my lip on it. And chipped a tooth.
