Please watch seinfeld the outing episode. I have that ranked number 1 on my list.

Frank's ptsd episode also the Maestro one.

[@hackapump]

They slipped this episode past the censors by never uttering the word. Pure brilliance.

[@haydn60]

A nice metajoke occurs a few episodes later when George drops the word gratuitously.

[@redrick8900]

This was the 90's. The censors didn't care. Shows talked about masturbation all the time.

[@Nueztoy]

You have to understand... the network's ratings skyrocketed DURING the episode. People couldn't believe what they were seeing and began calling each other, urging them to turn on their TVs. This episode has become a significant part of American pop culture.

[@goldenageofdinosaurs7192]

I remember the show being on before, like I’d seen it while flipping through the channels, but for whatever reason, I decided to give the show a shot & this was the first episode I saw. I was a fan after that🤣

[@nostrilnick]

This episode is the episode where Seinfeld hit its stride. Watching all the episodes back to back, you'll see a change from the early episodes into the classic show that it became.

[@locutus1126]

@@nostrilnick that entire season 4 was epic. It took them a few years to get some trust with nbc to really push the boundaries.

[@69Flint69]

The Soup Nazi, the Switch, the Opposite, the Marine Biologist, the Merv Griffin Show, the Serenity Now, the Strike... There are too many!

[@marwynthemasterful6369]

Those first 5 are definitely top 10 episodes. Along with The Contest.

The abstinence and the note!

the Strike yes

[@jjrod2988]

Soup Nazi easily my personal favourite episode 🍻

[@JRSiebz]

The Parking Garage!

I don’t know the name of the episode, the one where they are stuck in the mall parking garage is one of my favorites.

[@BillGraper]

@@jeffcameron536 The ending was so perfect! The car wouldn't start. That was not planned, and you can actually see them laughing as Kramer is trying to start the car. Sometimes fate wrote some of the script. 🙂

[@JeffPhillips-dn2fg]

One of the best comedy episodes of all time! Rickshaw, soup nazi, show about nothing, pirate shirt (low talker) all are great episodes! So glad you’re checking out Seinfeld!

[@TheApacolyps3]

George’s “it was cold” episode is great… and the parking garage episode

[@wampa25]

"I was in the pool!"

[@nguvideos2868]

That one is called the Hamptons, one of my favorites.

[@tru3sk1ll]

Shrinkage !!!!

[@ElroyMcDuff]

Elaine's reaction haha!

[@mikeb3835]

Significant shrinkage.🤏

[@kellymoses8566]

Seinfeld wasn't on cable television, it was BROADCAST television which was subject to much stricter rules about sex.

[@ThomasStarnes-d5p]

I probably seen every episode 30 times and I still laugh. Great characters.

[@greigclement9081]

I love the George's indifferent delivery of "here, have some tic tacs" as he throws them at his mother

[@A23457]

“Marla the Virgin Jr.” made me laugh 😂

[@krispykremekiller]

The thing about this episode is they were brilliant with making this so easy to follow without using explicit language. They were able to use made up words, phrases, actions to tell the story, like the sleeping/no sleeping in bed at night. They got this on broadcast TV on a Thursday night. This was the episode that made Seinfeld "viral" in it's day, watercooler talk.

[@geraldpage4401]

“The Puffy Shirt” is the greatest Seinfeld episode. Not because of the shirt thread, but because of the secondary thread with George as a hand model. Pure GOLD!!!

[@77dris]

The part where George says to his mom "here have some Tik Tacs" and throws them at her , he ad libbed that on the spot.

[@EllieMontage]

The Soup Nazi, The Puffy Shirt, The Bubble Boy, The Limo, and The Chicken Roaster. All incredible episodes you should consider

[@scipioafricanus5871]

[@otter3095]

I think this is one of the best episodes of the series 👏🏻🔥Enjoyed watching you two experience it

[@JaneDoe-lq3du]

Seinfeld was the most influential sitcom of the last 30 years, hands down. It was completely revolutionary. And so well written. Seasons 3-8 are really, really solid.

[@corrieroozee6479]

“You’ll be out before we get the check!” Best line of the episode

[@krysarak]

The Indian wedding episode with backwards timing was hilarious and different. Very funny: The race, The fire - Bozo the clown, The sponge - you're sponge-worthy?

[@jayjones5817]

The Outing, The Movies, The Marine Biologist, The Parking Garage, The Strike (Festivus), The Soup and The Soup Nazi are essentials

[@casualcaveman]

I can't believe you guys are actually reacting to Seinfeld. It's a total classic but not many people nowadays agree so I'm surprised. Pleasantly surprised. 👍

[@airyanawaejah2323]

People are retarded

[@GeorgeTropicana]

Not many people nowadays agree? Are you dumb? Crawl out from under that rock you've been living under

[@Damkohler11]

There are countless episodes that are absolute classics...might be the best sitcom ever made. Btw, for their jobs, George starts out as a real estate agent (the episodes where he loses that job are awesome) later becomes an assistant for the Yankees. Elaine is an editor for most of the show, and Kramer has the odd scheme now and then but we never really see him with a steady job.

[@spicy321]

On the night of the finale of Seinfeld Jerry was a guest on the Tonight Show and so was JFK Jr. He said people always complimented him on how well he did in his guest spot on Seinfeld even though he’s not actually in the episode.

Apparently, Larry David won the actual "contest" he had with some friends. He lasted three weeks.

[@Francog23]

“The Puffy Shirt” is super underrated and has a nice callback to this episode

[@jwoodard29]

"The Marine Biologist" is one of the best.

[@br1729]

"The Opposite" although it's so iconic you might want to build up to it with a few other episodes first.

[@tuttleberry]

Agree. One of my favorites.

[@karenyoung7133]

Ah,are you the master of your domain?Classic episode!

[@trevertravis8963]

“The Outing” would be a great follow up episode for this.

[@ianrhodes6928]

Yep. It's almost a companion to this episode. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

[@danholmesfilm]

Yup

[@mcgreen6882]

I heard my co-workers taking about Seinfeld the next day at work, so I watched my first episode the next week which was "The Letter" and Elaine got in a fight about wearing her Baltimore Orioles baseball cap in the NY owners box seats. I was hooked on Seinfeld ever since. It was very relatable, funny and clever.

[@RobertC4458]

@Dos Cavazos: Recommendation of "Seinfeld" episode to watch and react to - "The Outing" - sort of a companion episode to "The Contest" - it has a call back to the "watching a sponge bath" scene. In "The Outing" - a reporter publicly "outs" ( reveals ) "Jerry" and "George" ( Jerry Seinfeld, Jason Alexander ) as gay and a gay couple, thanks to a prank played by "Elaine" ( Julia Louis-Dreyfus ) on a couple of eavesdroppers, and they struggle to convince the rest of the world of their heterosexuality. "Kramer" ( Michael Richards ) has only three ( 3 ) rather brief scenes in this episode, but he makes the most of them. The line "... not that there's anything wrong with that"-as a reference to homosexuality-has become a popular catchphrase among fans. ( "The Outing was Season 4, Episode 17, "The Contest" was Season 4, Episode 11. )

[@Lefty0000]

It's completely fine to watch the episodes out of order, they're all very random anyway for the most part. Can't wait for the next ones! Keep doing your thing y'all. My recommendation would be "The Outing"

[@almahperditae]

The first time I watch Seinfeld, I saw out of order. Amazing show. The thing is, I don't live in America, the show was broadcast at 3AM, so I got to tape it and watch it after school. So... I watch it as random episodes, and miss a lot of episodes, and it was completely chaotic. Still amazing show. But... Years later, i get the complete show and started watching in order, not only that, but I became completly obcess with the show. I watch the all show in about a month. And then it clicked. The show is even more genious than it appear. Even if you saw the complet show in order, during it original run, it took you 9 years. There's no way you remember all the little detais. Seeing the show in a month you realize there's not a single line in the show who isn't a joke. Sometimes the joke is from a episode that originaly was 4 or 5 years. There's no way someone remember the previous line. Seeing it in a month, you realize the scale of genious that was Seinfeld. Every single line in the show is a joke, everything is tightly connected. And there's no way a normal person realizes that in a normal viewing. It's just impossible.

[@almahperditae]

Well... I guess everybody know this, because it's obvious, but it's a good exemple of what Seinfeld was. I think everybody knows that the last scene in the show it's the very first scene in the show. The first and last dialogue it's the exact same dialogue. Nine years apart

[@MastaFame]

As a diehard, Seinfeld fan, I dont care that it's out of order. I'm just glad you're watching it!

[@munkeypantsman]

It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia is another show that owes a lot to Seinfeld. They even parodied "The Contest" in an episode.

[@kbrewski1]

Notice the writers are all so good that they wrote this entire episode without mentioning the M word, without any outlawed words or naughty words. We knew exactly what they were talking about even though they never even mentioned it specifically. That's genius.

[@randyshoquist7726]

"Master of my domain" comes pretty close. (Sorry about that. (not sorry.😉))

[@TharsanJeyachandran]

Great ep

[@eliisaac]

Marine Biologist is a must, as well if youre up for a 2 parter The Bottle Depot is a classic. Also the Oil Balloon episode is amazing! lol

[@alipanroosendaal9503]

[@TheIgnoredGender]

The Marble Rye is also a must-watch

[@citizensallianceaustralia2025]

The Yada Yada Yada episode is a good one, I love the one where George does the opposite of his instinct, and also the one where Jerry buys his dad a Cadillac which sees him kicked off the condo board, very relatable behaviour from those retirement estates.

[@MathPiHanan]

This is exactly how I would introduce someone to Seinfeld if they’re not interested in watching it (picking and choosing). You got so many great recommendations, however, I didn’t see anyone recommending “The Abstinence,” S8 E9! You don’t want to miss it 😁

[@richarddennis4785]

Best episode of Seinfeld. Probably funniest comedy episode ever!

[@TTM9691]

See, this is great: next one is The Airport. Great episode, I would never have thought in a million years to ask for that one! There are so many classic episodes - season 5 alone is practically a perfect season - that you can just hit this show any time you want, I'll be there!!

Im sorry im old. I miss the 90s. Lived in California. Smoked a lot of weed. The music, movies and tv was rad. It seriously was peak culture

[@oakarusa]

A great Seinfeld Episode would be "The Invitations"

[@PAPPADASH]

I always thought the episode where Kramer adops a higheaway was super funny, and the episode where george gets a contractor to build a sleeping quarters under his work desk were funny ones. The one where kramer got the merv griffith set was funny too. There were a lot of good episodes and jokes on this show.

I love the little things in this show, like George having dinosaur bed sheets.

[@Jedi4Life-u5y]

What's funny to me is that the characters never use the word to describe what George's mom caught him doing (they walk right up to the line, but never say it). If you're taking requests on Seinfeld, check out the episode about the barber. Keep up the great work!
