Used to love Seinfeld series but once I found out that Jerry Seinfeld is a big time prick in real life(such as mocking democrats or supporting Leno against Conan) and Kramer's racist rants in a theater,I just lost my appetite to see the ones I haven't seen.

If you stop watching shows because the characters are likeable in real life you might find yourself running out of shows.

Not sure if this has been posted before but this sight has all the scripts, every single episode. If you're really into Seinfeld or is generally interested in comedy writing this is a gold mine. As good as the shows are, there are still hidden gems in the scripts that almost goes by unnoticed, like intertextual references and other subtleties. Reading the scripts is really a joy in itself!

I have to go to a pirate themed fancy dress party....I was thinking of going as Seinfeld with a puffy shirt on...but I'm too fat and ginger to pull it off.

I've literally only just discovered this show last night, after seeing a clip on youtube does anyone know if the full series are online or somewhere you can watch them?

Google it and you'll find some illegal streams of episodes. The only legitimate place I know of is www.crackle.com . They had a contract to host Seinfeld episodes, several at a time, switching them frequently.

Just wasted a silly amount of time reading 'The Doorman' which I selected randomly. Having seen the episode a few times before, reading the script was a good next step.

From The Fix Up.

First scene.
Jerry and George are seated at a table in a restaurant.

George: Why even try anymore? There's no sense to it. I'm never gonna meet
anybody, I should just accept it.

Jerry: Oh, yes you will.

George: No, I won't.

Jerry: Yeah, maybe you won't.

telekon · « **Reply #615 on:** March 4, 2015, 10:22:20 am »

And from the same episode.

George: I mean it's gotten to the point where I'm flirting with operators on
the phone. I almost made a date with one.

Jerry: Oh, so there's still hope.

George: I don't want hope. Hope is killing me. My dream is to become
hopeless. When you're hopeless, you don't care, and when you don't care, that
indifference makes you attractive.

Jerry: Oh, so hopelessness is the key.

George: It's my only hope.

If that's not good writing!

Sent one of these to my dad in Texas. Sadly, I don't think it'l arrive in time for Sunday, but sometime next week.

Was randomly drinking wine alone and watching Seinfeld, and it popped to my mind for Father's day present. I'm sure he'll have a laugh !!

All episodes available on HD and free at Hulu starting today.

So envious of those who can get Hulu in America

. Tried gettting on exactly at midnight last night and said the service ain't available to those living in Canada.

Well, sure. But to be able to watch it on large Hulu 48 inch in HD quality is a lot better than watching it on a much smaller laptop/mac screen

That was mine as well, and then I replaced the laptop with a desktop PC for watching downloads and playing games. This way I can still watch all my stuff and fuck about here on RAWK at the same time

It's working like a charm.

It's beautiful.

The first episode is still the best in my view. Jerry and Larry is the ultimate dynamic duo.

There's a new book out about Seinfeld: https://jenniferkarmstrong.com/

And there's a piece about Susan's death together with an hour's interview with the author of the book about the show:

It's showing it's age now. At the time was the best comedy there was.

Caught 'Curb your enthusiasm' the other day with Larry David - the co creater of Seinfeld. Bloody briliant !

He's coming to Netflix, y'all. New Comedians in cars... episodes and new stand up routines. No classic Seinfeld, though.

The talk series, which had previously debuted new episodes on Sony’s ad-supported streaming service Crackle, will bring 24 new episodes exclusively to Netflix starting in late 2017, with subsequent installments coming in 2018 and further forward in time. The move is part of a multi-faceted production deal Seinfeld has inked with Netflix that will also include two new stand-up specials filmed exclusively for the streaming service.
