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!

"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. The episode turned out to be a clip show. I'm not usually the biggest fan of clip shows, no matter what show I'm watching, but last night I kept watching and I quite enjoyed it.

These scenes and quotes are all from "The Chronicle," the Seinfeld clip show that originally aired on May 14, 1998. At the end of the show, a number of short clips are shown with "Time of Your Life" by Greenday playing in the background. CLICK HERE to watch the video on YouTube.
 

I know it's cheesy, but don't lie—I'm not the only one that got a little case of Seinfeld nostalgia after watching this video!

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! 

SPOOKY SEINFELD

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!
