Battery Thieves

Hello Seinfeld lovers!

Is it true? Do senior citizens actually steal batteries? 

In the season 9 episode, "The Bookstore," Jerry's Uncle Leo gets caught stealing a book from Brentano's bookstore. Jerry is so blown away he gets the store's security guard to give Uncle Leo a scare. When Uncle Leo actually gets into trouble, Jerry gets heck from his mom. According to her, stealing is normal behaviour for senior citizens, especially batteries (random eh?). 

Below is a picture from fark.com of Brentano's security guards "taking down" the book thief, Uncle Leo.


And here's a little excerpt from the episode—it gave me a chuckle.

LEO: Oh, they don't care. We all do it.
JERRY: Who, criminals?
LEO: Senior citizens. No big deal.
JERRY: You could get arrested.
LEO: Arrested? Come on! I'm an old man. I'm confused! I thought I paid for it. What's my name? Will you take me home?

...
JERRY: Yes. My Uncle Leo was cought shoplifing here the other day—
MANAGER: Yes, Uncle Leo. I remember him. I'm sorry, our policy is we prosecute all shoplifters.
JERRY: (Pleading) Oh, come on. He's just a lonely old man. All old people steal.
MANAGER: That's right. That's why we stopped carrying batteries.

Anyways, I'm bringing up this episode because my friend Adriana had similar issues with battery thieves. She has worked at a toy store for a few years, and she says it's true—senior citizens steal batteries! Now, of course not all senior citizens are guilty of this crime, but Adriana says they have caught a few.

How funny is that? I suppose not all of the outrageous plots in Seinfeld are fictional.


I'll be taking blogging break over the holidays, so this will be my last post for a while. I'll continue the Seinfeld discussion with all you lovers in the new year.

Happy Festivus!

Don't steal batteries.

Seinfeld Lovers Unite

Hello Seinfeld lovers!

I'm not sure if I've mentioned this before, but I'm currently taking a program called Creative Communications. Yesterday at school we had a speaker in our Public Relations class; he used the line "I hope this doesn't show my age" before making a Seinfeld reference. Is Seinfeld  already in that category? 

I've never thought of Seinfeld as a "showing of age" show, but I guess it's been gone long enough that it could be. I was still surprised to hear our speaker say this. I've only known shows like Gilligan's Island or MASH to be used in this context, and Seinfeld is much newer. 

I suppose a part of me didn't like hearing it because I realized we are getting further and further away from the days of Seinfeld. I guess what I'm trying to say is—never be afraid to admit you're a Seinfeld lover!

As Seinfeld lovers, we must unite to make sure that our beloved show never dies. We must continue to watch re-runs so that stations keep playing them, and therefore new generations of Seinfeld lovers are born. We must never be ashamed to be fans of the show. We must embrace it.

Seinfeld lovers unite!

For the really avid fans: start quoting lines in an episode as they happen.  As each person screws up a line or word, they have to drink until one person is still left quoting and they screw up.

Enjoy!

As Cosmo would say, "Here's to feeling good all the time."

Superman

Hello Seinfeld lovers!

It's time for me to tackle the age-old question, the big unsolved mystery, the never-ending debate that has caused many brutal disputes and a great deal of lost sleep - is there a Superman reference in every episode of Seinfeld?

This question is difficult to answer. Superman references come in all forms throughout the series, from the Superman figurine in Bizarro Jerry's apartment, to the time that Jerry dates a woman named Lois. If you tried to read every online article, blog post, or chatroom discussion relating to this question, you may never leave your computer. It's an ongoing debate, and some Seinfeld analysts have firmly stated their side on the issue.

The Superman magnet on Jerry's fridge is a favourite symbol of Team Superman (people who believe there is a Seinfeld reference in every episode). But disbelievers say that the magnet didn't appear on the fridge until the season four episode, "The Shoes" in 1993. They argue that before the magnet appeared, not every episode contained a Superman reference, and not every episode after had scenes showing the fridge with the magnet.

Image credit: readytogo.net

The hardcore Team Superman members consider even the most vague hints of Superman to be references. For example, Jerry is wearing Superman-like colours in the picture below from the pilot episode, "The Seinfeld Chronicles."

Image credit: dialbforblog.com

Disbelievers claim that "The Subway" (season three, episode 13) is a good example of an episode with no Superman references. Blogger Dan Hersam said the episode doesn't contain any references to Superman, Clark Kent, Lois Lane, Smallville, or Kryptonite.

I hope that with all my Seinfeld wisdom you're really impressed with my insight on this debate... I'm neither a disbeliever or a member of Team Superman! I know, terrible answer right? But I really think you could have a different answer depending on how you approach the question. First you have to define what exactly constitutes a superman reference? If you're willing to accept vague references, then I believe there is a reference in every episode. If you're not willing to accept these little fragments of Superman themes as true references, then I suppose there isn't a reference in every episode.

Regardless, I quite enjoy the episodes showing obvious Superman references. Below is a clip video from "The Race" (season six, episode 10, 1994). In the episode, Jerry dates Lois. He has to prove himself to her by winning a foot race against Duncan Meyer, Lois' boss and Jerry's high school track rival. Jerry ends up winning the race, thanks to Kramer.

You're all Seinfeld experts! I want to know what you think. Is there a Superman reference in every Seinfeld episode? Feel free to leave a comment!

Happy Halloween!

Hello fellow Seinfeld lovers!

You must all remember this hilarious episode, when Puddy decided to paint his face for the New Jersey Devils game. Elaine was less than impressed, but hey, "gotta support the team," as Puddy would say!

Photo credit: alternativereel.com
"The Face Painter" – season six, episode 22, 1995

Halloween is tomorrow, and so I figured I'd give everyone a good scare! He may not scare you as much as he scared the priest from El Salvador, who believed Puddy was "Diablo" – the devil. But look at that face! I figured he'd at least strike some fear into your eyes!

Happy Halloween!

"The Chronicle"

Hey Seinfeld Lovers!

Last night, while flipping through the TV guide (not the print version, obviously), I came across a Seinfeld that was about to start. Naturally, I selected it.

Spooky Seinfeld

Hey Seinfeld lovers!

As many of you know, I love Seinfeld as much as much as Kramer loves Mackinaw peaches. However, I love other things too – like Halloween! What's not to like about getting dressed up, eating some candy, and getting a little silly? 

In the spirit this awesome holiday (and yes, I consider it a holiday), I would like to share some spooky Halloween music with you. 

Click the link below to hear the Seinfeld theme song slowed down – it sounds creepy! 


This made me think of a cool costume idea! Since zombies are so popular right now (for some reason), you could get a group of friends together to be zombie Seinfeld characters, and one person could carry a recording of the spooky theme song!

Fake Movie Posters

Remember Death Blow? It was a movie that Jerry, Kramer, and Kramer's friend Brody went to see in the 1996 episode, "The Little Kicks." Jerry didn't know, however, that this would become his first bootlegging venture. After realizing that Brody was bootlegging the movie, Jerry wanted to leave. He asked Kramer to come and talk to him outside of the theatre. This resulted in the two of them missing the "death blow." Instead, Brody left because he felt sick, and forced Jerry to bootleg the rest of his movie. As it turned out, Jerry was a bootlegging master.

Apparently, if this were a real movie, it would be staring Channing Tatum and Jason Statham. That's definitely an action-packed duo that I wouldn't want to miss!


Ahhh Chunnel – the movie that destroyed Jerry and Elaine's friendship with George's fiancé, Susan. The three of them went to see the movie together in the 1995 episode, "The Pool Guy." George wasn't happy about the situation, because it meant that his two worlds were colliding. During the movie, Jerry and Elaine were talking, and Susan "shushed" them, immediately putting their newfound friendship to an end.

There isn't much description of the movie during the episode, but according to this poster it's available in IMAX 3D – I'm sold!


Rochelle Rochelle is one of the more memorable fake Seinfeld movies. Based on the dialogue, it seems to be a coming of age love story about a young woman. The movie's tagline is, "A young girl's strange, erotic journey from Milan to Minsk." The film is referenced in a number of episodes. As well, in the season six episode, "The Understudy," Rochelle Rochelle is adapted into a Broadway musical staring Bette Midler, who appears in the episode as herself.

According to reactions to the movie from Jerry, Elaine, and George, the plot is unbearable, but people watch it for the nudity. We never actually get to see any parts of the movie, but based on this poster, it looks like quite the journey!


There were a few more fake movies mentioned throughout the series. Here's a list (I hope your memory of these give you a little chuckle!)
  • Prognosis Negative
  • Sack Lunch (Elaine wanted to see this instead of The English Patient)
  • Blimp (George sees this movie twice so that he can yell out his famous line, "That's gotta hurt!" when the blimp explodes)
  • CheckMate 
  • Agent Zero
  • Brown-Eyed Girl
  • Chow Fun
  • Cupid's Revival
  • Firestorm
  • Mountain High
  • Cry, Cry Again (The movie that Jerry bootlegs after his successful bootlegging of Death Blow)

Cancer Faker Fogel


  Photo credit: sportsjournalists.com

We all remember Gary Fogel, the guy who faked having cancer. His character was played by Jon Lovitz in the 13th episode of season 6, The Scofflaw. In the episode, Jerry buys him a toupee out of sympathy. We later find out that Fogel was faking it; he didn’t actually have cancer. 

What kind of person does this? Oh wait, it's fictional, and it’s hilarious. 

Lovitz does a perfect job of playing the guy that everyone hates. 

Click here for the video of Fogel’s famous line, “Good for you, Jack!” 

I think this line makes viewers hate him even more - at least it does for me!

Anyways, the purpose of bringing up Gary Fogel was to show you how one Alberta man stole his move. Click here for an article about this man, and how he cheated all of his friends and family out of thousands of dollars by faking cancer. 

After doing some research online, I found out that there are a number of cases similar to this one. I can't believe people actually do the stuff that we see on Seinfeld!  Last week I discussed the Winnipeg woman that is involved in a case similar to Kramer's dispute with Java World. 

Actual, real-life people are doing these things! Could you imagine if people started doing some of the things that we've seen in other episodes? - like crazy mechanics that steal their customer's cars when they feel the cars aren't being taken care of properly! Although, I would  definitely laugh if that happened in real life.  

Anyways, Fogel ends up dying after all, but not from cancer. Jerry casually mentions in a later episode that Fogel died in a car accident. I think most fans enjoyed this news. I know I did!

A Page Outta Cosmo's Book

Hey there Seinfeld lovers!

I've got a neat story for ya! Winnipeg resident, Lisa Marchant, claims that her tea from Tim Hortons was too hot. Marchant was in a minor car accident after ordering a cup of tea from the coffee chain, causing her tea to spill and burn her leg. She is now demanding that Tim Hortons regulate the temperature of their hot beverages. Does this sound familiar?

In the 1995 Seinfeld episode, "The Postponement," Kramer and his lawyer Jackie Chiles attempt to sue Java World for a similar incident, but this time involving a cafe latte. If you can't remember the episode, here's a video to jog your memory.

                                                                            Video credit: YouTube

Click here if the video does not show up on your page. 

According to a Globe and Mail article, Marchant's case is not the first of its kind.

Perhaps Cosmo is somewhat of an inspiration for these hot beverage rights seekers.

Seinfeld on Twitter

Hello Seinfeld lovers!

I hope you're all on Twitter, because I've got a Twitter treat for you. I know some of you are probably already aware of what I am about to tell you, but for those of you who aren't, enjoy!

Seinfeld is on Twitter! There are a number of different Twitter accounts that do funny posts about stuff related to the show. Here are some good ones:

@SeinfeldToday (Modern Seinfeld)

This account, run by @JackPMoore and @JoshGondelman, posts episode ideas for the show if it were still airing. Some of them are really funny, and they usually try and incorporate something that didn't exist when Seinfeld was still around. Here are a few of my favourite tweets from Modern Seinfeld:
  • Kramer is addicted to Candy Crush, but suspects one of the levels is impossible to beat. "They're modern day carnies, Jerry! It's a con!"
  • George "breaks up with" his mom before Mother's Day. J:"You can't. It's not a break-upable relationship. You're her son." G:"Not anymore!"
  • Elaine suspects her bf is gay when he's mysteriously busy during pride weekend. Kramer helps her investigate, ends up leading the parade.
  • George claims to be EL James, author of 50 Shades of Grey, to impress a woman. George doesn't know that EL James is woman. Jerry hates kale. 
Can't you just imagine these episodes actually happening? I can actually hear George and Jerry having a conversation when I read the dialogue in the second example I listed - especially George saying, "Not anymore!"

A cool thing about this Twitter account is that you can tweet them with suggestions, and they might use them. They have so many good ones - quite a few that made me laugh out loud!

@TOSeinfeld (Seinfeld Toronto)

This account was inspired by @SeinfeldToday. Their focus: "What if the Seinfeld gang were living in Toronto today?" I don't think it's as good as @SeinfeldToday, but it's a little Canadian spin on it, and I like that! Here are a couple funny tweets from @TOSeinfeld:

  • George is grossed out when female boss takes newspaper into bathroom. "She just waltzes by, going to have some fun with @TheTorontoSun!"
  • George dates a Jewish girl so he can take rest of week off for #TIFF. Is caught by his boss making out during 12 Years a Slave. 
I hope you got the joke in the second example! It's a play on a season five Seinfeld episode, when Jerry was caught making out during Schindler's List. 


This account is the real deal. They tweet out classic Seinfeld lines, and always include picture link that goes with the line. Here are some classic moments that @SeinfeldTV helps us never to forget:
  • To have a line as perfect as "jerk store" and to never use it... I couldn't live with myself. #TheComeback #Seinfeld
  • It's Risk, Jerry. The game of world conquest. #TheLabelMaker #Seinfeld
  • Oh my god! That's my nipple! #ThePick #Seinfeld
I hope lines made you chuckle. Check out this Twitter account for more hilarious Seinfeld moments with pictures to go along!

There are a lot more Twitter accounts dedicated to Seinfeld. I just thought I would give you a little taste. By looking at these, it's obvious there are still tons of fans out there. If Seinfeld on Twitter isn't proof enough that the show will live on forever, I don't know what is!

The "Seinfeldcast"

Do you ever find yourself dropping Seinfeld references in every day conversation. I know I do! It can be awkward when the person I'm talking to doesn't know what I'm talking about. I've never dropped references from the show in a professional setting though, unlike one American sports newscaster.

Adam Lefkoe, a sportscaster from Louisville, Kentucky, dropped 41 Seinfeld references during a 5-minute broadcast last weekend. 41! It's now known as the "Seinfeldcast". This guy is my hero.

Before watching the Seinfeldcast, I grabbed a pen and paper to take a tally of the references that I understood. I got 36 (I know, I should have done better). Now I am challenging all of you to give it a try. I have posted a video of the sportscast below. Grab a pen and paper, and see how many you can get. Feel free to comment on this post and share your results. Good luck Seinfeld lovers!

*note: you can skip past the parts that don't feature Adam Lefkoe if you wish :)

The Pilot Post




                                                  Photo credit: Wikipedia - The Seinfeld Chronicles

"The second button makes or breaks the shirt." - Jerry Seinfeld


The scene pictured above is from the pilot episode of the hit television series Seinfeld. This episode aired in 1989, and the series went on to produce nine seasons. The reason for the show's success - awesomeness. I don't think I have to explain to Seinfeld fans what makes the show great, but I would like to discuss it anyways.

The characters MAKE the show. They are all so quirky in their own ways, you can't help but falling in love with them. I think you have to watch the show a few times and really get an understanding of each character's ridiculous mannerisms before you find it funny. Once you get to know each one, you will love it. 

Many of my friends don't like the show (crazy, I know). However I think other Seinfeld lovers would agree, if they just got to know the characters, their minds would change. If you're reading this blog, I'm assuming you are a lover of the show and not a hater. And lovers would probably agree that haters just don't understand! 

I may come off a little obsessive at times in my blog posts, but that is only because I am. If Seinfeld is not your favourite show you may not like me. But there is an easy way to fix that - simply begin indulging in the genius that is Seinfeld. Then I promise you won't have a problem with my blog. 

Thanks for reading my pilot post! Here is an idea of what to expect in the upcoming weeks:
  • Seinfeld on Twitter
  • Where are they now?
  • Are you still a Seinfeld fan?
  • Fake movies in Seinfeld - Deathblow
  • What makes Seinfeld better than other sitcoms?
  • Seinfeld on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine
  • Cancer Faker Fogel
