I agree-never listen to anyone who tells you to skip any episodes. After season 2, we're roughly where *Seinfeld* will stay for a while, in my opinion, even if certain episodes may be crazier than others. And I hope you watch the bloopers.

[@VOTOG-ic6hm]

That’s what’s so great about Seinfeld. Just normal conversations doing everyday life. It’s a show about nothing. 😂

@Dillpicks95 much like Star Trek TNG Seinfeld hits it's stride in season 3 as well i didn't really watch much of season 1 and 2 when it firtst aired so it's great to watch along with JEN and a cool chat community for this as well , i know many of the iconic episodes i'm so looking forward to seeing them .

The very 1st season was a little different with more of Jerry on stage but as soon as I saw it I knew there was something unique there. I told EVERYONE at work and they ignored me. Then by Season 3 all of them were watching and quoting lines from the show. Even the owners old grouchy wife became a fan.😁

[@jollyrodgers7272]

"It's a show about Nothing" became the actual pitch to network executives. Hardcore film noir actor Lawrence Tierney played Elaine's father, who was a star in the '40s and '50s, but fell out of favor as being a drinker and difficult on and off the set. At one point he had been 86-ed from every bar in the Hollywood area for fighting. You might remember him from RESERVOIR DOGS (1991), and Tarantino said the entire cast and crew hated his guts by the end of the first week of filming. I'm enjoying how you react to this series! Don't skip ahead - just keep watching and see how the characters develop and plot(s) thicken! They became totally iconic, and once-in-a-lifetime hilarious.

This series is so good, skipping episodes will just bite you in the ass. Things, people and situations always come back, sooner or later in the series. And that makes the series much better. I don't know how many times I've rewatched it, it's a lot.

He and the Library cop would have been great buddies! Too bad they never met on Seinfeld.

[@apulrang]

I think I remember reading somewhere that the actor who plays Alton Benes, Elaine's father, was pretty much like his character in real life. He's a very famous character actor, and very gruff and intimidating. And supposedly it wasn't ever entirely clear if he understood the concept of the show or what the joke was supposed to be. So he was just him, and it worked!

[@tremorsfan]

Apparently he stole a knife from the apartment set and then pretended to do the shower scene from Psycho. He also played the head gangster in Reservoir Dogs.

[@4thofEleven]

He was also one of the holographic gangsters in Star Trek:TNG, and absolutely terrified Wil Wheaton.

[@Redplant99]

@@tremorsfan Correct! Lawrence Tierney apparently used the butcher knife he took from the set to pretend to stab Jerry Seinfeld while imitating the music from the shower scene. Originally, he was supposed to be a recurring character, but his odd behaviour (including the above) made the cast & crew very uncomfortable & he was never asked to reprise the role.

I hope you have a great weekend Jen. Seinfeld, the Office, and Firefly became long-lasting staples in my viewing pleasures. I'm so glad that you're watching and reacting to Seinfeld. I have the full collection and much like Firefly, I've watched them so many time over and over that it's been awhile since I last watched them so it's nice to watch the abbreviated version while you react to them :) Have you ever watched The Office? If not, please consider it and reacting to it. The Office is an absolute classic once it gets going and you understand the characters.

[@bigdream_dreambig]

If you're not considering seeing the actual stage-play . . . Yes, there was a well-received 2012 movie based on the Les Miz musical that starred Hugh Jackman together with Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway, Amanda Seyfried, and Eddie Redmayne. (There was also a well-received 1998 film based on the original book -- _not_ the musical -- that starred Liam Neeson, Geoffrey Rush, Uma Thurman, Claire Danes, and Hans Matheson.)

Jen when you said "Elaine's dad is a celebrity" I thought you might be interested in Julia Louis-Dreyfus' Father. Her late father, Gérard Louis-Dreyfus, was a French billionaire who was chairman of the Louis Dreyfus Company. Her whole family is super rich, so it's kind of cool that she decided to do her own thing and become an actress rather than live off the family money. Also Jerry should have just checked his jacket at place they met Elaine's father and came back for it later, just saying.
