Question

Fans question whether character behaviors have changed over the series, noting Kramer's inconsistent attitudes toward baths and George's changing alcohol tolerance.

In last night's episode, Kramer was disgusted when he had to take a bath. In a previous episode, "The Wife", he said he takes baths. Has the K-Man changed over the years?

George has obviously changed, too. In "The Red Dot", he drank Hennigans, to which Jerry replied to him that he doesn't drink. George got sick. But this season, in three episodes, George has been drinking. In "The Hot Tub" he was drinking scotch with the Astros reps. In "The Seven" he was drinking wine (not exactly a strong drink, but in most tv shows it's enough for people to get wasted). In "The Shower Head" he was drinking a beer. Has George built up a tolerance to alcohol?

he must have; he probably can't remember what he likes:

in "the jimmy", after george predicts that he will sweat after his shower that "didn't take":

kramer, to george: "you should take cold showers."

george: "cold showers? those are for *psychotics*."

kramer: "i take 'em."

plus george (last season) said he always takes his shirt off when he uses the toilet--he and jerry had a conversation about it. yet before that, in "the boyfriend" (and maybe others?) he is shown coming (running) out of the bathroom with his shirt on and his pants down.

In article ,

Kramer lost his key priviledges while taking a bath at Jerry's. This was one of several incidents that caused Kramer to leave for, as Newman said, "La La Land" (Los Angeles).
