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.

“You know, Jack. You’ve got a hell of a nerve taking that kid’s pen.” I’ve ALWAYS thought it was hilarious how jerry’s dad delivered that line 😂😂😂

[@yellowblanka6058]

Hahaha, me too, the way it explodes out of him.

[@travisdonaldstanley6420]

Maybe his best line from the show.

[@travisdonaldstanley6420]

It's wild how in the end when Jack's teeth are damaged, Morty is shaking him down for the pin. Now that's a Father. You buy a Cadillac for a guy like that.

[@TwiddleFingersDB]

Morty is the unsung hero of the show.

[@HF-dv5vv]

I love when he visits Elaine at work and asks about what the square footage was of her office and what happened to a deli that used to be downstairs 30 years ago lmao

[@JohnSmith-bn5mi]

If you refuse a gift 6 times and they're STILL offering, I'd accept just to move the conversation forward.

[@guguigugu]

who's offering?? you werre begging for it!

[@wvu05]

Jack asked him six times. At a certain point, what did he expect?

[@Nick-NY]

“Do me a personal favor.”

[@VestinVestin]

He expected to be seen as very generous and willing to give it away, while also expecting Jerry to politely decline and assume it would be impolite to do so. That way Jack gets to keep the pen but also gets the credit for offering it. It was virtue signalling gone wrong.

[@wvu05]

@@VestinVestin Oh, I get that after someone turns it down two or three times, but it's the fact that he kept going that did him in.

[@brundlefly262]

I'm positive! Take the pen! 😃

[@babyalive345]

Larry yelling "I'd rather having a bottle of scotch!" EPIC.

[@malovina]

Who knew that was him lol :)) and then Elaine with Stella!!!!!

[@Nick-NY]

I always liked the Florida episodes. They really nailed it.

[@ArtVandelayOfficial]

The cast is perfect, even jack Brilliant

[@karols432]

WHAT IS GOING ON IN THIS COMMUNITY?!?

[@dont-want-no-wrench]

seinfeld had the best casting ever , every part @@ArtVandelayOfficial

[@TWOhype23]

Any episodes that involve the parents is an instant gold mine, especially if Frank was in it… he was my favorite! 😂😂

[@ARKHAMxMaverick]

Jack was an awesome character and I'm glad they didn't overuse him.

[@ArtVandelayOfficial]

Yeah he's brilliant

[@davepicklebeen6137]

I’ve ridden in plenty of Cadillacs before

[@MaeseSantiago]

He is great, but I think he could have been used a couple times more, dude was hilarious, and really funny with bvery thick brooklyn accent

[@mnt5592]

Larry David's voice and shouts off the screen is one of the best thing in this show

[@sakabula2357]

"Is anybody here a Marine Biologist?!!!!!"

[@Jokie155]

"I ordered the kosher meal!"

[@pharmacywave404]

Larry David yelling in the background while jerrys tryna do his act 😂😂

[@connorob6836]

I’d rather have a bottle of scotch haha

[@andrewk2250]

There should have been a Seinfeld spin off called Del Boca Vista with George and Jerry's parents, Klompus, the Mandelbaums. It would have been gold Jerry, gold!

[@12Blueace]

If they had George’s parents move down there and that would have been the best comedy spin-off ever. 😂

[@yellowblanka6058]

This is funny, but a little bit goes a long way - a full series would be a little too much to take I think, lol.

[@theintrovertedaspie9095]

Unfortunately most of those actors and actresses died.

[@RedNovaMedia]

Lol 😂😂😂

[@JJ_5289]

I feel like part of the genius of the seinfeld show was that most of the hilarious side characters were used for only 2 or 3 episodes. Really kept the show fresh even decades later. Even with a character like newman, the magic would've worn off if he was used more and more

[@rattus3102]

"TAKE THE PEN" 🤣🤣

[@yellowblanka6058]

YOU GOT A LOT OF NERVE TAKIN' THAT KID'S PEN!

[@lust4bass]

So.....where's the pen...?

[@jordanwhite8099]

1:30 "well, he was wrong" HILARIOUS

[@Hfsm33]

They nailed the complexities of old people politics, amazing.

[@Tripp393]

They nailed the aggravation for the sake of aggravation.

[@RedNovaMedia]

Liz Sheridan is a treasure. The moment the door closes “why’d you take his pen for?” Lol 😂 RIP 🙏🏽❤️

[@dncviorel]

Loved her character.

[@ChristiaanHartNibbrig]

Fantastic scene; one of Seinfeld's best. Jack Klompus killed every scene he was in. Hilarious.

[@resundanex4435]

i love how probably everyone at the retirement place knows about the pen

[@HenrysHowTos]

come on you left out the best part!!! STEELLLLLAAAAAAA

[@philkerr4548]

@Henrys HowTos it's in another cut...

[@ahmadfarrall2097]

Yes I was waiting for that😂 too

[@manuelfuentespardo8102]

R.I.P. Liz Sheridan (1929-2022) she did a good job playing Jerry's mom. TT

@@theintrovertedaspie9095 I think a lot of Jewish people were involved in Seinfeld, so who knows. George and Elaine are also Jewish, I think.

[@12classics39]

Jerry in the sunglasses trying to do a stand-up routine while Morty and Jack fight in the background … comedy gold.

[@joebuydem]

The most Italian and Ashkanazi moment of all time. Lol

[@verothacamaro]

lol my thoughts exactly

[@jeremytung1632]

Everything Jerry does at his parents condo sets off a horrible chain reaction, he should just stay in New York.

[@job489]

It's his material.

[@jameskaruga6730]

@@job489 lol that old man

[@yellowblanka6058]

Haha, it has everything to do with older people, particularly those who move to Florida, and less to do with Jerry. Bits like this are infinitely more amusing to me now as I'm in Jerry's age group (well, how old he was then) with older parents.

[@Demiglitch]

He just wanted to go scuba diving.

[@mcpablo13]

"Do me a personal favor" I'm so using that line. 😂

[@atticusmcfly]

This episode perfectly encapsulates the dynamic between my mom and her many sisters. ABSOLUTE INSANITY YOU GOTTA SEE TO BELIEVE!

Are they special needs people?

"4:41 All I said was I liked the pen" lol

[@reggie93441]

Hahahha

[@Boppinabe]

Jerry and Elaine could come back and play the crazy parents now.

[@lukasnummer1]

One of the very best episodes. The whole sequence where Klompus roasts Morty is wonderful. Hard to believe that Klompus' actor Sandy Baron was only 55 years old here!

[@billshinas27]

His hair actually looked like it was coloured in silver to make him look older, there not natural greys.

[@Demiglitch]

@@billshinas27 it worked well.

[@derp8575]

55??!! No way. I believe you. It just seems wrong.

[@Jotinko]

…and sadly died young at 64.

@@Jotinko Well, he was a heavy lifelong smoker and eventually developed emphysema.

[@billshinas27]

My favourite show to come out of America, never ending classic scenes, this one is up there with the greats, no show has made me laugh like Seinfeld. " All I said was I like the pen" always gets me, just love the way Jerry delivered that line.

[@vegasmitch8209]

Show was Funny Seinfeld himself is Only oK!

[@ManhattanBallz]

This is what makes Seinfeld so funny.

[@jouhanneus]

The absolute mayhem during the last 40 seconds is ridiculous😂

[@tcmaddox]

The Florida casting was some of the best in the show.

OF COOOOURSE I wanted it! Love that delivery.

[@maxinef6654]

[@adanlp2781]

It's so funny the rivalry between Morty and Jack.

Omg jack and Morty going back and forth is priceless 😅

the outtakes for this must be hilarious. How they could keep it straight is beyond me.

[@daydream_believer]

The classic sponge cake defense for taking the pen back!! Love the writing! 🤣

[@valentinpalombo4699]

The level of pure raging insanity they all let out over a pen is literally one of the highlights of this show ❤️🙏😂 what an amazing writing!!

[@Moolers]

1:13 - Elaine's reaction to the absurd argument is fantastic.

[@TheStuport]

"That Pen Is Out Of This World" is what is printed on Jack Klumpus's Grave Marker!

[@sreeharivenat8002]

This whole episode was lit 🙌🏻 Never thought I'd laugh with George and Kramer not being in an episode 😅

[@MiniMaxiSlots]

I believe Jason Alexander was pissed he wasn't in the episode.

[@vistulacooper6802]

It's those doggone OLD PEOPLE!!! THEY ARE A TRIP, honey!!!

[@12Blueace]

@@MiniMaxiSlots he was. He was actually afraid the show was going to focus more on Jerry and Elaine’s relationship meaning he would be less important to the show so he told Larry David if he ever excluded him from another episode, just write him out completely. I guess Jason Alexander has a lot of insecurity when working on Seinfeld, which made him the perfect casting choice for George as that was a big part of George’s personality.

[@jsmr451]

Yes it was 'lit' with good lighting. It helped to see it.

[@ashtonchapman2613]

This was funny as hell! Love these Florida episodes.

[@briandavis9952]

5 more seconds and Elaine screams out .... Stella....!!!!!

[@wrightvcx2249]

The moment you realize most of the old cast from Seinfeld has passed away. Guess we all are getting older.

The secondary casting is perfect; they have to be related to Larry david!

This show is so timeless. Saw it already like 30 years ago and still laughing my butt of.

Of course I wanted it! I love sponge cake😂😂

My grandpa was just like Jack where if he gave you something, you knew you'd be hooked into a favor down the road or he'd use it like he saved the world from a superhero's villain telling everyone and their dog.
