Quotes

"That's why I don't have cable in my house. Because of that naked station. If I had that in my house, I would never turn it off. I wouldn't sleep, I wouldn't eat. Eventually, firemen would have to break through the door. They'd find me sitting there in my pajamas with drool coming down my face." -George

Trivia

• Jerry Seinfeld has a collection of over 500 sneakers. They are all white.
• Jason Alexander (George) was always fitted with a suit one size too small [in Seinfeld], to make his character look "uncool"
• The character of Cosmo Kramer is based on Kenny Kramer, a man who worked across the hall from co-creator Larry David. In a self-confessed move to cash-in on the sitcom's popularity, Kenny Kramer formed the "Kramer Reality Tour", an officially-recognized New York City tour which visits the real-life locations often featured in the sitcom.
• Did you know that the first line of the first episode (The Seinfeld Chronicles) is the same as the last line of the final episode? Jerry tells George, "See, now to me, that button is in the worst possible spot. The second button literally makes or breaks the shirt. Look at it, it's too high, it's in no-man's land". In the first episode George and Jerry are in the coffee shop when he says it, and in the final episode they are in the jail cell.
• Elaine Benes wasn't in the pilot (The Seinfeld Chronicles) After that episode aired they decided that they needed a female character to kind of balance out the three males.
• The "Kramer Entrance" was actually an accidental discovery? He was late for his cue, so he accidentally slid through the door. Everyone thought it was funny and decided to keep it.
• 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 brutal serial killer. 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!!
• In Jerry's apartment, he has a picture on the wall of a black Porsche 911 catching air going over a hill. In real life, Jerry is an avid Porsche fan and collector.
• The episode where Newman grills Jerry about mail fraud is a parody of Basic Instinct (1992).
• As Kramer became more popular, his entrance applause grew so prolonged that the cast complained it was ruining the pacing of their scenes. Directors subsequently asked the audience not to applaud so much when Kramer entered.
• The apartment used for exterior shots of "129 West 81st" New York is not actually in New York at all, but is 757 New Hampshire Ave., West Hollywood, California. There's a Taco Bell directly across from it.
• 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.
• The Bubble Boy (Donald Sanger) was played by an old man, John Hayman.
• Kramer was named Kessler in the first episode while Seinfeld was named The Seinfeld Chronicles.
• While it's true that both TV Jerry and real-life Jerry are big fans of Superman, and that references to Superman (and other comic book super heroes) are regular occurrences on the show, it is not true that every episode includes a reference. Between the Superman refrigerator magnet,the Superman figurine on the shelf by Jerry's stereo, and the frequent spoken references, at least 80 or 90% of the episodes include a reference, but not all.

  
  
  
  

Good Manners According To Seinfeld Episodes:

• Don't double-dip the chip you already bit.
• Scoop small food such as corn niblets or peas with your fork. Don't prong them one at a time.
• If a guest brings food, such as a loaf of bread, to your dinner party, serve it.
• Don't degift (take back something you gave), regift (give away something you received), issue an unvite or nonvitation (to someone you hope won't attend your function) or overthank (by calling with a day-after thanks if you said thanks the night before).
• When in a movie theather, observe the empty "bufferzone seat" between you and the person beside you.
• Don't pee in the shower at the health club.
• And for goodness' sake, don't remove a TV GUIDE from someone's home -- it may be part of a collection.
• Don't double park! You might block someone in. If you do, leave a note. According to George, this is how dictatorships start.
• If you are invited to a dinner party, bring something such as wine and cake (not pepsi and ringdings).

Some Reasons Why Jerry Has Dumped Those Women:

No one is more picky when it comes to dating than Jerry. Over the years, he's struck up relationships with a variety of woman, only to eventually dump them for reasons perhaps only a psychiatrist could understand.

• For eating peas one at a time.
• For being liked by his parents.
• For having been with and dumped by Newman!
• For shushing him in front of the TV.
• For not tasting his pie.
• For appearing to own only one dress.
• For having man hands.
• For being "too perfect" that her friends kept saying, "its so nice he's doing this for her."
• For thinking his standup act is not funny.
