Stanley Spadowski Gets Fired & Hired

[@Alapaloozalover2000]

I love how everything just stopped when George yelled for RJ, even the phone stopped ringing!😂

[@pete6705]

I can’t believe they tossed him out like an old bag of moldy tangerines

[@gabe_s_videos]

1:44 I love the "blink-and-you-miss-it" joke here where he turns to see the door close, thinks he's on the other side of it, starts mumbling angrily to himself, then looks up and realizes he's still in the office. XD

[@MisterSynyster]

the irony of Kramer,shaking hands with a guy named George Newman

[@jetnut89]

Michael Sinister The beginning of the Kramer-Newman friendship.

[@jasonmonto4445]

hilarious

[@mcgannahanskyjellyfetti6854]

It's ACTUALLY George NEUMAN...

[@evansgate]

Newman and Kramer were friends though. I don't know if irony is the word you are looking for. Also yes, I'm that guy

[@JackConnorMusic]

As over the top and silly as Stanley Spadowski was meant to be, I found there was a real, genuine heart and sweetness to the character. Yes he was funny, but you also really wanted to root for the guy. Even the "life is like a mop" speech was inspiring in its own unique way.

[@MarcDufresneosorusrex]

send in the janitor

[@beejor]

@2:24 I love how even the phones stop ringing.

[@BrowncoatFairy]

mid ring!

[@OrangeHarrisonRB3]

Funny thing is director Jay Levey considered the shot a failure because the camera was supposed to stop moving as well, but I like it fine the way it came out.

[@AdMiKa]

“I’ll leave you with this scene from Michael Richards. The great thing about Michael is that you can turn the camera on and tell him to just go nuts for 2 minutes. Well here he is, doing just that.” - Weird Al

[@royjg83]

Fifteen years and they just toss me out like an old bag of moldy... TANGERINES.

[@xennial80sxberner]

I feel like Fletcher intentionally hid the file as an excuse to fire Stanley and flex the villain role

[@AdMiKa]

There’s a bit of poetic justice in that R.J. Fletcher being such a hot-headed jerk and firing Stanley is what ultimately cost him his own job.

[@KaneRobot]

There's a POWERFUL evil force in the universe and it lives at Channel 8 and I've seen it.

[@usedforks]

I've looked the potato of injustice right in the eye!

[@hateUmankind]

I thought it was CNN NEWS

[@JoeDoakes1015]

No, it's at FOX "News"

[@lastswordfighter]

It's CNN/MSNBC/BBC/CNBC/ABC news.

[@DupaChunner]

Are we just going to let them barge into their telethon? No!

[@themovieguru1094]

" 'May I call you 'Stanley'? ' 'Okay.' 'Stanley.... YOU'RE FIRED!' 'But I-I didn't....' 'GET OUT!' " I don't know why I always found that moment really funny especially how Kevin McCarthy delivers those lines.

[@sydbarrett5]

Great actor. I know what he'd say if he was alive today.

[@brendonmesler7659]

Badgers?Badgers? We don't need no stinking badgers.

[@waltermoldren4991]

this is the whole reason i got into seinfeld. loved this character, and when i saw him on a tv show (seinfeld) i had to watch it.

[@thepts]

I've always loved this scene and I've seen it maybe a 100 times, the acting here is just superb. Also, funny that the first time we saw "Kramer", he became best friends with a guy called "George" and "Newman" (!).

[@GHC3]

Very prescient

[@RappinPicard]

This community means about as much to me as a festering bowl of dog snot!

[@Fanik10]

Today at work 2 summer temps were let go. They tossed them out like 2 bags of moldy tangerines. Thinking about that brought me here!

[@CaptainLumpyDog]

You get to drink from the FIRE HOUSE!

[@michaelhambrook8200]

What I like about this scene is towards the end, Stanley acts like a cross between Benny the cat and the Abominable Snowman, both from the Bugs Bunny cartoons.

[@vincentpol]

Michael Richards playing himself I see.

[@DonPeyote420]

The yuppie in the middle, the one in the grey suit, looks like Patrick Bateman lol

[@IHeartNoise]

+PufferBluntman He does

[@tripsbacks]

This movie is way deeper than it seems. Dealing with the human condition disguised as a b comedy. Al needs to make a sequel.

[@FeministCatwoman]

I love this comment and agree.

[@mr.nibblenips4231]

Dat laugh of the guy in the middle 2:14

[@troyevitt2437]

Mr. Spidowski took my stapler...I'll have to burn down the building.

[@kimmolaine8069]

Because you're lonely?

[@kimmolaine8069]

May I call you Stanley? :)

[@michaelbowie3269]

His hand is.

[@misterninetyseven2898]

Me: Where's the hand sanitizer? Store employee: Aisle four. Me at aisle four: 0:07

[@mistergone5156]

Best scene in the movie, Michael Richards is so damned perfect here..

[@mcgannahanskyjellyfetti6854]

Poor guy loses his job and his mop ALL in a matter of minutes... 😟

[@RoosterMontgomery]

4:00-4:03 This and the "I just don't know what's wrong with me!" kills me.

[@rubenfierro7996]

A bag of ...Moldy ...Tangerines!!!!

[@SuperPaulvideo]

like a box of MOLDY TANGERINES!

[@MisterSynyster]

WEVE NEVER BEEN APART!

[@jthale481]

I usually get hired and fired on the same day!!!

[@speedysteve9121]

Poor Michael Richards. UHF was his best performance.

[@puxtbuck6731]

Wait is that Richie Aprile standing right there? I’d be shocked too if I saw him.

[@blixasice]

Question with a boss like Fletcher, how did Stanley last 15 years? Lol

[@chriscravens4915]

When George Newman talks people listen……

[@SirHatchporch]

1:42-1:51 is one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

[@henrykujawa4427]

In his run of JIMMY OLSEN, Jack Kirby modelled "Morgan Edge" on actor Kevin McCarthy. In "UHF", McCarthy's "R.J. Fletcher" is essentialy a parody of "Morgan Edge". Coincidence, or really fitting?

[@VampireFan-rf5kb]

Although we know that Stanley's old mop is his dignity and was even his best friend since he was eight years old, what else is there on why Stanley's old mop is so important to him? Was Stanley's old mop the main thing that was left of his family, had reminded him of someone special from his family, or something?

[@jetnut89]

Am I the only one who wanted the end to include the bum and blind guy solving a Rubik's cube?

[@BrowncoatFairy]

nope! (is this it?)

[@EuropeYear1917]

BLIND GUY: Is this it?! BUM: Nope! BLIND GUY: Is this it? BUM: Nope! PAM: (** on phone **) George, the mayor will be out any second now! Where is he?! No, I don’t see a Noodles MacIntire anywhere! NOODLES: MacIntosh! At your service! PAM: (** on phone **) Nevermind, George, I think I found him!

[@DupaChunner]

@@EuropeYear1917 RJ Fletcher’s son: Oh, did I do that? Oopsie!

[@FrenchosaurusRex]

Stanley is the hands down the best character in UHF

[@palehorse864]

The real R.J. Fletcher Jr. wasn't this callous and evil. This guy is a body snatcher who replaced the original.

[@SirHatchporch]

@mobus1603 Actually, when "Seinfeld" first started, Michael Richards was "the guy from 'UHF'" to me. So I knew. :-)

[@chriscravens4915]

The character of RJ’s son was gay…..😂😂

[@piccoloxnailxkami7400]

1:44 whoa is that Richie Aprile?

[@subsamadhi]

Yep. Broads dont belong in broadcasting

[@adooma1984]

LOL people like that should be put to sleep

[@efremendez]

Truth lol

[@fatcat8033]

Best walk out no walk out ever .

[@Fanik10]

4 got tossed out like moldy tangerines

[@boomboxvigilante4515]

The best movie.

[@alneri3706]

That stapler..

[@scottandrewhutchins]

Tom Lehrer's favorite line in the movie.

[@chriscravens4915]

When weird al talks people listen….

[@mobus1603]

Wow, nice E.F. Hutton reference! Almost nobody has heard of that slogan anymore.

[@michaelbowie3269]

As once a graveyard shift janitor I saw a lot of lonely people. 00:42

[@troyevitt2437]

2:29 My broker is E.F. Hutton, and E.F. Hutton says.....

[@MisterSynyster]

but when did this movie come out...now im thinking Seinfeld would've been a lot better with Weird Al...

[@akiraman26]

wal mart owner

[@Connors116]

You're Fired.

[@BigDogCountry]

3:12 SUPPLIES!

[@chriscravens4915]

Michael Richards

[@d06murd]

I didnt catch that! Thanks!

[@mobus1603]

@SirHatchporch Now we know where Kramer's antics came from : )

[@oz_jones]

Wow. Ross really let himself go. From a professor of paleontology to a janitor.

[@testtickles8755]

No

[@chriscravens4915]

Weird al ditched his glasses and shaved off the stache and straighten his hair….

[@peterdavies2960]

He’s got a beard now 😂

[@alejandroaguilar9038]

AWSOME MOVIE !!!

[@vpfan207]

Lol, is that Christian Bale?

[@lesliebarker5657]

Why wasn’t this a hit. At least a cult classic but I’ve never seen it or heard of it till today.

[@paulheap1982]

Look at a list of movies that came out at the same time.

[@efremendez]

You had terrible parents and worse friends lol

[@charliebucket7436]

Because your lonely?lmdabo

[@blixasice]

Because youre lonley?

[@CelestialWoodway]

HEY RJ!

[@ryanlepore3058]

R.J.'s Donald Trump all right.

[@ChadToney]

Yeah, hilarious.

[@heatherd6373]

nsjakal🐐🐐

[@billycasagrand142]

Only a mop?

[@angiemelanie]

OMG que trasero el de Al

[@jenniferwills9752]

Kramer!

[@ryanlepore3058]

R.J. Fletcher is like Donald Trump. But is Stanley Spadowski suppose to be a mentally special needs person? In this movie, it looked like Stanley couldn't drive a car.

[@williamlydon2554]

I think hes just an over the top character.

[@djsemira1]

i prefer stanley to kramer

[@efremendez]

No. People were were just plain stupid back in the day. Now they on some spectrum

[@chriscripplercruz1833]

It was Cosmo all the time be awesome if he yelled out no soup for u!!!!!

[@ATRTAP]

Because you’re lonely lol

[@ryanlepore3058]

R.J.'s Donald Trump all right.

[@Channeleven2345789]

Let me guess, far left liberal?

[@carly8435]

Ah yes, because only far left liberals are capable of poking fun at the President.

[@Channeleven2345789]

They're the only ones who complain about him and tend to make shit up as they go.

[@carly8435]

Channeleven Okay, are you delusional, or do you just live in a bubble? The far left is not the only group that even slightly dislikes Trump, and even among those who overall like him and voted for him (here's a hint: I'm included in that group), people are capable of, you know, having a sense of humor and making and laughing at jokes. Get your head out of your goddamn ass.

[@Channeleven2345789]

True, but the far left are the most vocal, and they tend to make their voices heard harder than any other person who makes fun of Trump. Don't be so salty.
