+++++TRIVIA for "Seinfeld"+++++ -In the very first episode, the first conversation was between George and Jerry about a button. In the very last episode, when they were sitting in jail, the last conversation they had was the same thing about the button. -The backwards episode "The Betrayal" is based on a Harold Pinter play, "Betrayal", which also uses the same gimmick. Sue-Ellen Mishkie's fiancée in the episode is named Pinter in tribute to the playwright. -In the episode where Elaine dates a man named Joel Rifkin, she tries to have him change his name, since Joel Rifkin is also the name of a man involved in a notorious New York City murder case. One of the initial suggestions for a new name was O.J. This episode was shot in 1993, a year before the O.J. Simpson murders. -Jerry Seinfeld turned down an offer from NBC that would have made him $110 million for a tenth season of the show. -In the episode in which Kramer options his coffee table book for a movie and moves to Florida, several newspaper headlines are featured as he runs for condo council president. In smaller print on these pages, other headlines read, "Larry David Gets Hole in One" "Larry David Injures Elbow", and "Larry David Never To Play Golf Again". -Lawrence Tierney played Elaine's father in one episode. He was originally going to be a recurring character like Jerry's and George's parents. But Tierney's notorious volatility terrified the cast and crew and they did not want him back. According to the producers, Tierney took a knife from the set and hid it under his jacket. When Jerry Seinfeld asked him about it, Tierney pulled the knife and proceeded to imitate the famous shower scene and score from Psycho. -When the final episode aired on May 14, 1998, the TV Land network honored the occasion by airing no programming in the show's timeslot. Instead the network just showed a still photo of a closed office door. -The night before the final episode, ABC aired an episode of "Dharma & Greg" (1997) in which the couple tries to have sex in public because everyone will be indoors watching the "Seinfeld" finale. -During the original airing of the finale, MTV aired original cartoons that were specially timed to fit into the finale's commercial breaks, so that viewers could freely watch both of them and not worry about missing anything.

("Helloooo") -For finishing his sentences.

++++KRAMER'S BIG IDEAS++++ -A pizza place where you can make your own pie (to be owned and operated by Kramerica Industries). -A roll-out tie dispenser. -Levels - a radical design concept that will transform his apartment into a pillow-strewn "ancient Egypt" (later used as a scene in the NBC pilot, Jerry). -The invisible coffee table, a transparent piece of furniture he builds out of a windshield; he and his then girlfriend (Elaine's roommate) shatter it while making love. -A cologne that smells like the beach (co-opted by "the real" Calvin Klein as "Ocean"). -Faking a ski lodge in his appartment with ersatz wood wallpaper. -A coffee-table book about coffee tables, with legs and a built-in coaster on the cover. -Dispensing with his fridge and eating only fresh food. -The Bro (or "Manssiere") - a bra for chesty men. -Turning his appartment into a Swedish spa via a hot tub. -Da Vinci sleep - 20 minutes every three hours, based on Leonardo's supposed slumber patterns. -PB&J's, serving only peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwiches. -Wearing only hot-out-of-the-dryer (or pizza oven) clothes. -A car equipped with a periscope for urban navigation. -Using butter in place of shaving cream and suntan lotion. -A particularly fruitful episode found him dreaming up a spill-preventing bladder system for oil tankers and a bottle to dispense both mustard and ketchup (at the same time), plus taking credit for renovating the Chrysler Building's Cloud Club and 2.9 percent interest rates on Toyota one-tonne trucks. -Realising lengthy showers cut into productivity, he adds a garbage disposal to his drain, thus allowing for tub-time food prep. -Asserting that 94 percent of communication is nonverbal, he resolves never to speak again. -A fleet of rickshaws pulled by New York City's homeless. -Depositing bottles in Michigan for a $.10 refund instead of $.05 in other states in order to get a better profit.
