Cuz yeah I admit the wig master one was a lil weird, but it was still funny to see Kramer dressed up as a pimp. And the opera one isnt one of my favorites but George and Kramer scalping tickets was hilarious! The point is even if it isnt one of their better episodes its still got funny parts with these characters. That's what makes this show so good. They did 180 episodes. Of course there's gonna be some episodes that aren't as good or as funny as other episodes. But I guarantee every episode will make ppl laugh and it is a great show as a whole.

The reason this works so well for George isn’t because he’s ignoring common sense, he has always let the worst of his character traits take control over his actions. He had convinced himself that those traits were his common sense so what he thinks is being the opposite is actually just him finally taking some control over his life. Additionally he starts saying what he thinks, not brown nosing, not being a yes man, he takes initiative and is confident in his decision making; he doesn’t take the time to psych himself out of it. Fantastic writing and acting. The structure for this episode, the jokes, the scenarios are just amazing.

I remember see this when I was younger and thinking 'NO WAY would he get a woman saying "My name is George, I'm unemployed and I live with my parents"' like many commenters here are saying. But now I get it. She respected his brazen honesty. He had the balls to approach her, even though he had nothing going for him and didn't try to hid this fact. If had lied or danced around the topic and tried to sugercoat it she wouldn't have been interested. It probably set him apart from all the other lying jerks she dated. Also some women love mysterious men, "Who ARE you George Costanza." (And his answer "I'm the complete opposite of every man you've ever dated.") And she was also in a position to help him and got him a job. I know not all women are like this, but the more you think about it it actually is somewhat believable.

Everyone should take at least a yearly “Opposite Day”. Not the SpongeBob type but the George kind. I tried it once and it was awesome. Really helps to get your head out of your own ass. I probably do it every couple of months now. Whatever your first instinct is, do the opposite. Your first instinct, btw, is not the same as “the first thing that pops into your head”. Your first instinct is that default behavior that makes you feel the most safe and comfortable. Like if you meet someone, your first thought is to say hello, but your first instinct is how you go about doing it - the usual comfortable way.

When you see a person it is a reflex to say hello, not really a thought. Would you care to explain your nuances?

That was one of Larry's rules of the show. Forget the exact phrasing but he didn't want any touching moments or character development.

[@mateuszmazurek7991]

actually Elaine seems to me most sociopathic In fact I would not be surprised if Julia would be one, of course with a very high IQ, but still. Remember they are among us and advertise too much what they are. I like hey,,,, but somehow Elaine too often strikes me as having no real empathy and very good at faking social fluency. Jesus, what a trip

[@wasay456]

@@professortriplextralarge5 Kramer is probably the counter balance to her...he seems loyal and at times semi-caring

This was about the time when people started talking about Seinfeld and repeating the lines and jokes at school. And people would walk into a room when the show was on and they'd stop in their tracks and stop paying attention to other people and couldn't help but start watching it even though they were doing other stuff and then when a commercial came on you'd suddenly look around and notice that everyone was just as thrilled and excited as you were. It was something you couldn't help but be amazed at and couldn't wait to see what happens next. It made all other shows seem like trash in comparison.

But trash you could eat , as it's just floating at the top

He even shows up for the interview dressed down to polo shirt jeans and casual jacket 😂. BTW, Victoria’s lisp is super cute

[@gigisolo3579]

I swear this show is nothing but a masterpiece. Oh, how I miss it!

[@docholliday3769]

Haha I love George! Seinfeld is the Best show ever hands down!!!

[@GyroLamb]

I don't know if Larry David wrote this story or if it came from his own life (I don't think he was writing for Seinfeld at this time) but I can totally imagine him doing this,

[@shonda79able]

His last season was season 7 so he definitely influenced this episode

[@kilgoretrout321]

@cola00000 yes I think it was Bob Sacamoto

"My name is George. I'm unemployed and I live with my parents." "Hi I'm Victoria (sexy smile)." LMFAO that was incredible

[@nxxdefiant]

one of the best moments in TV history

I'd love to see opposite Kramer. I guess the one where he fakes a real job is the closest.

[@Freeskiingisdabest]

In the episode the bizarro Jerry you actually have an opposite Kramer 😂 He brings by the groceries and comes inside the apartment very carefully

[@seededsoul]

Ricolaus Oh yeah yeah, Elaine joins their group.

[@kilgoretrout321]

Kramer is always going in different directions. Opposite would be too obvious for him

[@davidleigh443]

The fake job and the time K and Jerry switch apartment is funny, but then I think everything in Seinfeld is funny except the Chinese Restaurant show. I did not care for that one. They made a 5 minute sketch into an entire episode. I wanted more and felt I was short-changed.

[@Aven-Sharma1991]

Shut your traps and stop kicking the seats! We're tryin' to watch the movie. And if I have to tell you again, we're gonna take it outside and I'm gonna show ya what it's like. You understand me?! Now shut your mouths, or I’ll shut ‘em for ya, and if you think I’m kidding? Just try me, TRY ME, because I would LOVE IT!!!

I love this episode. It's very enjoyable and also filled with profound truth.
