Okay, I don't know if Seinfeld is as loved here as The Simpsons, but IMO, it's the 2nd show along with The Simpsons that describes all of life's situations. There have been many memorable quotes from this show, here's a good one: Jerry: I don't understand. Do you have my reservation? Car Rental Assisstant: We have your reservation, we just ran out of cars. Jerry: But the reservation keeps the car here, that's why you have the reservation! Car Rental Assisstant: I think I know why we have reservations. Jerry: I don't think you do. You see, you know how to *take* the reservation, you just don't know how to *hold* the reservation. And that's really the most important part of the reservation: the holding. Anybody can just take them. What is your favorite Seinfeld quote?
Believe it or not, George is not at home Just leave a message at the beep If I were here, I'd pick up the phone Who can it be Believe it or not, I'm not home...
Manny -- I think it's pretty well-loved: http://bbs.clutchcity.net/php3/showthread.php?s=&threadid=16162 You just can't get the true effect of the reservation scene in print...you've got to be able to see Jerry waiving his arms in the air, like he's taking reservations. "Karate" Jerry: what, you guys have class at the same time? Kramer: no, we're in the same class. Jerry: What? Kramer: He almost beat me. Jerry: You're beating up on children? Kramer: It's not the size of the opponent, it's the ferocity. Jerry: But Kramer, he's 12 years old! Kramer: We're all at the same skill level, Jerry!"
*George's speech on being a marine biologist that begins... " The sea was angry that day, my friends, like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli..." * The afore-mentioned reservation speech... *When George conceives of the menage-a-trois concept to accomplish the roomate swap, whereupon he says to Jerry... " Do you ever just get down on your knees and thank God that you know me, and have access to my dimentia!?!?" * Sheeeee's BALD, Jerry!" *Kramer's explanation of why he's home early from baseball fantasy camp...
Oh yeah, across110thstreet, the jerk store called and they are running out of YOU! Yea, Freak, that quote is a lot better when you could see Jerry waving his arms and the look on that woman's face, especially when he says that he needs the insurance because he's going to beat the hell out of that car. Here are some others that I have enjoyed: Kramer: A hot bowl of mulligatawny would hit the spot. Elaine: Mulligatawny? Kramer: Yes, it's a delightful Hindu concoction simmered to perfection by one of the great soup artisans in the modern era. Elaine: Who, the Soup Nazi? Kramer: He's not a Nazi, Elaine. He just happens to be a little eccentric. Most geniuses are. [At Yankees batting practice] George Louis Costanza: Guys, hitting is not about muscle. It's simple physics. Calculate the velocity, v, in relation to the trajectory, t, in which g, gravity, of course remains a constant. [Hits a home run] It's not complicated. Derek Jeter: Now, who are you again? George Louis Costanza: George Costanza, assistant to the traveling secretary. Bernie Williams: Are you the guy who put us in that Ramada in Milwaukee? George Louis Costanza: Do you wanna talk about hotels, or do you wanna win some ball games? Derek Jeter: We won the World Series. George Louis Costanza: In six games. "You could be the first pirate comedian." - Bryant Gumbel, to Jerry, in "The Puffy Shirt" (don't know if this is exactly right..doing from memory): (Jerry opens the door and sees Izzy Mandelbaun) Jerry: Mr. Mandelbaun, what are you doing here? Izzy: I'm here to whip you into shape, stringbean! It's GO TIME! Bubble Boy: (looks at Susan) So, what's your story? George: She works for NBC. Bubble Boy: Would you take your top off? Bubble Boy's Mother: Donald! Bubble Boy: Aw...come on! I'll try to find some more from a good site, but I can't find them now...unless someone else can find a good one first.
Yeah the soup is damn good but its $12-13 a pop and you get to stand outside in the freezing weather....
George: "the seas were angry that day my friend...like an old man taking soup back at a deli!" my favorite all time scenes come from the marine biologist episode...and the episode where Kramer "works" for the company he doesn't really work for...the scene where he gets "fired" is probably the funniest thing I've ever seen on TV.
the episode with MAN HANDS! classic --- Jerry: "There was no pick! It was a scratch!" --- The Elaine Dance sorry... no quotes memorized
Oh YEAH?? I just slept with your wife! -------------------------------------------------- Frank Costanza: Now, it's time for the feats of strength. Who wants to go first? Kruger: How about George? Frank Costanza: Good thinking, Kooger...
Jerry: "You're looking up movies for people now?" Kramer: "I got time." -- Ramone: "I'm up for some stuff!" -- Jerry: "You know what, I changed my mind. Put me down for a 'no tuck.'" -- Jerry: "No milk?" Kramer: "Oh, I'll be back." -- Kramer: "Oh, I'm perculating Jerry. I'm mossy. My brain...is mossy." -- Kramer: "The homeless aren't doing anything. Why not strap something to them?" -- Rebecca DeMornay: "Oh, the homeless will eat it, what do they need the top of a muffin for? They'll eat anything! We got people out there tying them to rickshaws!" -- Kramer: "What are you thinking about, marriage? They're prisons, Jerry, state-sanctioned prisons! You're doin' time! You get up in the morning, she's there! You go to bed at night, she's there! It's like you have to ask permission to, to go to the bathroom."
I also really liked it when Kramer passed his Kidney stone. that whole scene was hilarious. I was sitting on my couch talking to a Marine recruter. I really did not want to go in the marines, but I did want to get out of class that one day So I talked to the guy. He continued to call me for 2 months. It took me LMAO on the phone while I watched that part for the Marine to relize. " I was not U.S. Millitary material" I hold nothing against Marines. I just couldnt be one, "not that there's anything wrong with that"
