***Official 2020 Seinfeld Draft***

I wanted Marine Biologist, damn. I think that’s my favorite episode ever.

George getting corrected about a whale not being a fish is one of those jokes that pops into my head from time to time and always makes me smile.

(Correct first pick still available.)

Damn. Three of my top four (The Contest, The Opposite, The Marine Biologist) are already gone.

What’s the best part of the relationship when you are a shallow superficial man like George Constanza? Seeing your girlfriend naked for the first time. Even better when your friends get to see her first!

I give you ā€œThe Hamptonsā€ (Season 5)

I’m typing this on my phone so I’ll keep it short.

And another first-round caliber episode is picked!

Unlike the biggest asshole draft, my top 10 are being decimated early

ā€œI don’t know how you guys walk around with those thingsā€ may be in the top 5 lines ever delivered on the show

Oh shoot it’s my pick? Lol sorry I have been waiting for someone else to pick all day. We really need a sheet keeping track of picks but I don’t know how to make one anonymously.

I want to do as much of this as possible from memory instead of looking up other people’s lists but it’s been a while since I’ve watched Seinfeld. After ā€œMarine Biologistā€, the episode that most sticks out in my head is ā€œThe Chicken Roaster.ā€ I like how the show got increasingly weird in later seasons and this episode is right up there with the most bizarre.

I assume everyone remembers the main plot - a Kenny Rogers roasters opens across from Kramer’s apartment, leading to him and Jerry switching apartments because the light is keeping him up (I forget exactly who is who in this scenario). There’s the B story line where Elaine is charging all kinds of things to the Peterman account, most notably an $8000 sable hat, which George later leaves behind at a girl’s apartment so she’ll have to let him come back for it. Of course the hat disappears so he gets a cneap replacement made of nutria, a type of water rat, which falls apart while Jerry is talking to an old college friend in Kenny Rogers Roasters, leading to the restaurant shutting down.

There’s even one of my favorite little throwaways, where Kramer has a ventriloquist’s doll named Mr. Marbles that Jerry is afraid is going to come alive and murder him.

@beetlejuice and then @DodgerIrish, who is currently contemplating his NBA draft pick.

The Millennium

season 8, episode 20

an episode about the future features a wildly outdated ā€œspeed dialā€ subplot that’s hilarious in how fuckin stupid and backward people in the past used to be

early on, kramer is warehousing party supplies in jerry’s apartment, and george and elaine choose to sit on the folding chairs while the couch and chair remain empty.

elaine is locked in a battle with a clothing store, almost coming up with the 2020 curb your enthusiasm ā€œspite storeā€ gag. finally enlisting kramer for hilarious bits of physical comedy where he’s fumbling with the price gun and eating chips like a fuckin alien.

but george’s subplot in this episode is legendary. desperate to get fired so he can take a better job at the mets, he’s wiping strawberry juice on micky mantle’s hall of fame jersey, streaking across the field in a fleshtone bodysuit, and dragging the world series trophy behind his car while shouting insults at the yankee’s management from a megaphone. george is flying as high as he ever has.

ā€œi would have never thought that you, bodysuit man, would perpetrate such a disloyaltyā€
