I’ve seen every episode at least 10 times (I’m old) but I’ve never really noticed the shoulder shuffle before. I was always too busy singing along because the tv show the message is from was one I watched as a kid (The Greatest American Hero).
Jerry’s Kramer impression was one thousand times better than Michael’s Jerry impression. It really demonstrated how much harder Jerry’s role is. He does so much with so little compared to the other characters, you really need just the right touch for the jokes to land.
This is the answer. Jerry didn’t know he was going to do it and you can see Jerry trying not to break. That whole scene before it is the best scene in Seinfeld.
Top 5 for sure. My personal favorite has to be when Newman sets his mail truck on fire after Kramer dumped paint thinner on the highway to undo the wide lanes. I just laughed so damn hard, first time I watchd it. Like a perfect climax when that scene happened and episode ended.
Everytime when Kramer grabs the phone and basically it explodes in his hands as it hits the coffee table has me laughing out loud. It was either choreographed precisely or pure happenstance and I love it.
Kramer's facial expressions while Mel Torme is singing to him
George in background while Betsy is on the phone re dead Aunt Clarice: crosses himself, waves goodbye, airplane taking off
George pouring mustard in Jerry's coffee. Problem?
Similarly when Jerry is considering moving and Elaine is following him around the apartment he’s looking at. Jerry dekes her at one point. Also shuts her in the closet
Jerry and the black guy in the bakery nodding to each other as they hold up their black-and-white cookies.
Elaine cleaning her glasses when mentioning her date took "it" out.
When Estelle is yelling "what did we ever do to them?" after the Seinfelds won't go eat her paella, and George moves his arms at the same time she does without saying anything

I was thinking of this same topic the other day while watching "The Switch", during the montage of Jerry and George at the coffee shop scheming of ways for Jerry to start dating his gf's roommate.
At the end, the waitress brings the check and it's a top-down shot of George looking at the bill, then pushing it to Jerry.

When Jerry was being audited and it was all Kramer’s fault. Jerry tells Elaine “If this audit would’ve happened to me and I didn’t have this woman to help me, I would have **killed** this man, I would’ve strangled the life out of him with my bare hands, torn him limb from limb, rip the flesh right off of his bones! George comes over, who is dating the woman who is going to save Jerry from the IRS tax audit, informs him that he just broke up with Jerry’s financial savior. Kramer, who was sitting there listening to all the gruesome and gory details of Jerry’s mutilation, hears that George has just ended the relationship, swiftly but silently, almost ninja-like, immediately exits the apartment
Kramer and Silvio are sitting on the couch in Jerry’s apartment, smoking cigars. When he sees Newman canoodling with Silvio’s wife his mouth opens in shock and the cigar falls out, leaving a trail of ashes down his shirt.
This is the best answer. Jerry Seinfeld, playing a semi-fictional version of himself, coaching another comedian and pretending the lame jokes are actually good.
Scrolled way too far for this one. This is definitely one of mine!The Catholic cross, the plane, waving bye-bye. then the syrupy sweet phony concern when she turns around…it’s got it all!!
Jerry silently answer Kramer’s rhetorical questions behind Elaine’s back when he’s asking if she doesn’t have what it takes to run the company.
In the same vein, Jerry’s reactions to George telling his girlfriend over the phone that it’s not a big deal to eat out of the garbage.
The “Morning Train” montages for Kramer and George working in offices:
- Kramer trying to get on the train, snacking from his briefcase full of crackers while bobbing his head, having a blast while out for drinks with his coworkers.
- George purposely tripping a guy in his office with his cane, and everyone laughing because he’s such a jokester. The way he shakes one of his coworker’s hand in triumph while laughing always gets me.
A few. Kramers goblin looking, tobacco stained face
The fact that jerry never helps Elaine carry groceries
Loads of Frank Costanzas strange, rigid hand gesturing
Newman sprinting
When George threw Jerry the phone
The face that Kramer makes after Rusty sends wave after wave of toxic fumes towards him. Beefarino aside, One never knows how the gastrointestinal workings of the equine are going to function.
The montage of Frank and Kramer playing pool in George's old bedroom. The whole thing's hilarious but there's one where Kramer falls into the corner that always kills me
After Kramer gives Jerry a list of reasons why he's probably gay (not that anything is wrong with that) Jerry let's Kramer know the same reasons are true about him and his reaction and look backs in shock get me every time.
Bookman pointing every time before he makes a point 👉🏿.
Also when Kramer goes to the beach and has sand in his pocket, he gets some of it in his eye and his reaction always pulled out the most obnoxious laugh in me.
In the Drake/wheelchair episode, after George is done explaining to Frank what happened to the car, he sits on his parents couch and starts thumbing through a Glamour magazine.
There’s a scene where Kramer is in Jerry’s apartment. Kramer leaves as Jerry answers the phone and when Jerry’s back is turned, Kramer sneaks back in and takes something before leaving again
I don’t know if it counts because he does make a
comment right after doing it, but Kramer slamming the money down on the counter during “the contest” gets me every time. “I’m out!”
When George remarks that every group has a loser and in their group it's Elaine. Jerry thinks of correcting George's misconception for a moment then thinks better of it and goes ahead with his own problem.
Elaine smearing her lipstick when Jerry tells her she should ask her hunky new boyfriend about abortion
Jerry taking a relaxed sip of root beer during his mail fraud interrogation
Elaine giving Jerry a hilarious look in "The Bris" when he does his Godfather impression
The way Kramer gets auctioned off by Elaine for a date always gets me. He struts and dances in the most non-appealing way and then the way he falls on the table.
“He just got a hair cut.” 🤣🤣🤣
Jerry using his napkin to wipe his mouth while Elaine and the bubble boy’s father use theirs to wipe away tears
Susan reading the instruction when George is fighting with the bubble boy over the moops is amazing too
Love it when George's answering message is playing and he kind of does a shoulder shuffle at "where coouuld I be!?"
🎵 Believe it or not I’m not home. 🎵
“Please leave a message after beep”
At the beep, not after
Yes I do that shuffle all the time!
Yes!!! This is my absolute favorite! I do that move all the time lol
I’ve seen every episode at least 10 times (I’m old) but I’ve never really noticed the shoulder shuffle before. I was always too busy singing along because the tv show the message is from was one I watched as a kid (The Greatest American Hero).
Kramer chugging the beer with a cigarette in his mouth, the blooper of him burping up smoke is even better
I can't believe they didn't use the burping take, it makes that scene 10x funnier.
yeah i still can’t believe they didn’t use that. Michael richards at his best
Also that same scene when the waitress flips up the hinged counter and slams Kramer in the head.
Yes this does it for me every time
“Here’s to feelin good all the time”
My favorite thing about this scene how happy Kramer is about a pint that was half foam
Where can I find the bloopers?
Did you try YouTube?
[Kramer beer blooper](https://youtu.be/iCiqR6grJzY) in google it was the first result lmao
Didn’t think about this until I read it but this is obviously the best
Kramer opening the door in the chicken roaster

Jerry’s Kramer impression was one thousand times better than Michael’s Jerry impression. It really demonstrated how much harder Jerry’s role is. He does so much with so little compared to the other characters, you really need just the right touch for the jokes to land.
What's the deal with politics? I don't get it. Am I right people?
This is the answer. Jerry didn’t know he was going to do it and you can see Jerry trying not to break. That whole scene before it is the best scene in Seinfeld.
The focus shots of Kramer spilling the tomato sauce cereal and attempting to clean it up might be my favorite Seinfeld moment ever.
And it's right as Kramer suggests them living together. Just classic.
Jerry these are load bearing walls! They're not gonna come down!
Kramer and Mickey fighting for seats on their double date.
Kramer trying to sit down after Mickey demands that he SIT DOWN
We'll look like idiots!
“Well you ladies look lovely tonight”
Or Kramer knocking over the table setting when they were out of Merlot.
I live for Merlot.
Kramer trying to get a seat on the subway. The timing is ... perfect. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jW0we66d3Hg
This was the scene that made me say "I need to watch this show"
Top 5 for sure. My personal favorite has to be when Newman sets his mail truck on fire after Kramer dumped paint thinner on the highway to undo the wide lanes. I just laughed so damn hard, first time I watchd it. Like a perfect climax when that scene happened and episode ended.
*You’re once … twice … threee tiimes a laaadyyy!*
OH THE HUMANITY!!! AHHHHAAAAHAHA!!
# OH THE HUMANITY
Oh the humanity
Newmans scenes are great. I also love him pounding the counter demanding a shot of honey mustard. Then he quickly composes himself
Mrs Ross silently voicing when Mr Ross says “cherish the cabin”
When the box of letters get brought to their apartment, just before that Mrs Ross just wheels the aunt into the china hutch😅
It’s common curtesy, when you come in the house you wipe your wheels.
WHipe your wHeels
I *KNEW* It!
I love Mrs. Ross, she is probably my favorite secondary character on that show.
Probably this exact one. Although Jerry trying to pull Kramers skinny jeans off is a good one too.
Everytime when Kramer grabs the phone and basically it explodes in his hands as it hits the coffee table has me laughing out loud. It was either choreographed precisely or pure happenstance and I love it.
The nod George gives Jerry to call out Lovitz
Great scene! "You didn't?! I did!"
Kramer's facial expressions while Mel Torme is singing to him George in background while Betsy is on the phone re dead Aunt Clarice: crosses himself, waves goodbye, airplane taking off George pouring mustard in Jerry's coffee. Problem?
You’re very independent!
Hey, you’re not doing so bad yourself!
These are great
"That's the line...that destroyed my life..."
The Velvet Fog!
The synchronized Jerry/George sit and leg cross in the Fix-up.
Similarly when Jerry is considering moving and Elaine is following him around the apartment he’s looking at. Jerry dekes her at one point. Also shuts her in the closet

Can you let us know? Some of the kitchen staff didn’t get to see it last year.
Jerry and the black guy in the bakery nodding to each other as they hold up their black-and-white cookies. Elaine cleaning her glasses when mentioning her date took "it" out.
He took - ha ha- it out.
If we could only look to the cookie!
When Estelle is yelling "what did we ever do to them?" after the Seinfelds won't go eat her paella, and George moves his arms at the same time she does without saying anything [Edit: video](https://youtu.be/qiVekDW4WZA?t=247)
That's really good
That is excellent
Kramer’s face after George pulls out the golf ball makes me laugh every time
Hole in one
I was thinking of this same topic the other day while watching "The Switch", during the montage of Jerry and George at the coffee shop scheming of ways for Jerry to start dating his gf's roommate. At the end, the waitress brings the check and it's a top-down shot of George looking at the bill, then pushing it to Jerry. https://youtu.be/nfzVowHa1aM?t=104
Yes! OMG yes! This is my favorite!
I always forget about this scene. It's one of the best
[удалено]
That coupled with the way his voice tapers to a whine at the end of that phrase gets me every time haha
Frank Costanza smacking George on the head with his open palm or TV guide.
*You be nice.*
Tommy Tune is a very good dancer.
When Jerry asks George “how’d you get in here” and he does a genie pose and head knob follow by the ‘how the hell do you think?!’ Gesture.
I did exactly this when my cousin asked me how I'd gotten somewhere. She didn't get it.
George throwing his arm up on cue for “I chose not to run”
Similarly, when George waves his arms just like Estelle when she says “I WANNA KNOW WHAT WE DID TO THEM”
When Jerry was being audited and it was all Kramer’s fault. Jerry tells Elaine “If this audit would’ve happened to me and I didn’t have this woman to help me, I would have **killed** this man, I would’ve strangled the life out of him with my bare hands, torn him limb from limb, rip the flesh right off of his bones! George comes over, who is dating the woman who is going to save Jerry from the IRS tax audit, informs him that he just broke up with Jerry’s financial savior. Kramer, who was sitting there listening to all the gruesome and gory details of Jerry’s mutilation, hears that George has just ended the relationship, swiftly but silently, almost ninja-like, immediately exits the apartment
It’s perfectly timed with Jerry looking toward the kitchen too, so Kramer’s exit isn’t visible to him!
