Elaine Saves The Pilot | The Shoes | Seinfeld

Do you have a ketchup secret?
From Seinfeld Season 4 Episode 16 'The Shoes': Elaine can't seem to figure out why her shoes are a subject of conversation. Jerry and George pitch their pilot to NBC, but the deal is nearly jinxed when George takes a peek at the cleavage of the NBC president's daughter.

About Seinfeld:
Seinfeld stars Jerry Seinfeld as a stand-up comedian whose life in New York City is made even more chaotic by his quirky group of friends who join him in wrestling with life's most perplexing, yet often trivial questions. Often described as "a show about nothing," Seinfeld mines the humor in life's mundane situations like waiting in line, searching for a lost item, or the trials and tribulations of dating. Co-starring are Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Jerry's ex-girlfriend and current platonic pal, Elaine Benes; Jason Alexander as George Costanza, Jerry's neurotic hard-luck best friend; and Michael Richards as Jerry's eccentric neighbor, Kramer.

Elaine and her various expressions, gestures even in the background, to get Russell's attention is among my all-time fave Seinfeld moments 😂

[@Toni-so7hv]

JLD has various moments like this, where she doesn't even have lines and yet she's doing funny crap just in the background 😆

[@jtirello3_111]

When she’s flapping the napkin up and down like sheets being hung out on a laundry line in a quick don’t-blink-or-you’ll-miss-it moment. Classic prop humor! 😂

[@Macintoshes]

Her expressions from 2:30 - 2:35 were great.

[@cibida1]

“This is why you’re not in the pilot” such a great line and well delivered by Jerry Seinfeld. 1:40

Not really. Just point them at another woman and they will destroy them.

[@fozzybear8878]

Easy- let women write the dialogue.

[@dharmallars]

You could just approach it the way they write Sweet Dee. Just write lines for a normal person. Then cast a woman.

Just have the woman speak ill of other women, lie, and be obnoxiously complacent and agreeable.

A few years ago I was sitting next to Russell (Bob Balaban) at the White Manna hamburgers in Hackensack NJ. I wanted to talk to him but I also didn’t wanna be rude while he was eating so I didn’t say anything to him.

[@cameronmiles645]

Great story. When’s the movie out?

[@sunnyv5718]

@cameronmiles645 It would be French cinema. They would sit in silence for 5 minutes. Focus on shadows, expressions, a movement of the hands, a rueful look in his eyes. Then cut to the next scene.

I came here looking for the comment Jerry made about Kramer inherited a ton of money a long time ago. It’s not in the episode streaming on Netflix so I thought maybe there was a longer version of this episode somewhere else.

Season 4 is peak Seinfeld

[@archie7596]

Season 3-5 Peak of Television

[@jhaz89]

I'd say season 8 is the best individual season (and by far the most underrated) then season 5-8 was it's prime. I was making a list of the best episodes for a friend to watch and after looking through the entire Seinfeld catalog, realized how many gems season 8 has. The little kicks, the Yada Yada, the bizarro Jerry, the comeback, the chicken roaster, the summer of George, the nap, and many other greats. But obviously that's just my opinion and everyone has different opinions which are basically irrelevant
