Seinfeld: All Non-Standup Cold Opens 

They typically had nothing to do with the episode

What would the context be? They start the episodes

I wore jeans to funerals haha. They ain't gonna care 6 foot under

This is just nit-picking, but this was not Susan's funeral, it was just a visit after the gravestone had been placed, which often takes place months after the funeral. Sometimes there's a bit of a service, but often just the nearest and dearest gather and meet to see the stone.

STICKING IT!

That wasn’t the funeral, they were just visiting Lilly. 😂

@@AndrewReevesArtpoor Lilly

It was confession without redemption.

I loved the finals

Networks cut parts of the show out for more advertisements once they're syndication. It's bullshit.

What I’ve seen pretty much every single one of

I'm still checking out the DVDS from the library and binge watching it. I've seen it so much that I can work and listen to it and feel as though I'm watching it.

It is a nice treat huh.

You butchered the quote, but it is a great moment in the show

Peter Keleghan played Braun better imo, he already played an insane forest ranger on The Red Green Show around the same time.

​@@andrewhaywood1262😮 Lloyd Braun is RANGER GORD??!!

Bannon.

Bania

Do you mind if I use that?

that bania guy was annoying thats why jerry hated him lmao

Yeah, a lot of these I don’t remember, and I’ve seen all the episodes. Maybe some of these were left off because they were too bold

Frasier edges Seinfeld imo.

33:56

I like his Stand Up because it’s clean! Jerry Seinfeld is a Comedic Genius!

If you type in Seinfeld 24/7, it'll take you to a 24 hour Seinfeld site that plays endless episodes 24/7

An honourable mention has to go to J. Peterman, Elaine's boss. 😂

He's hooked on the yam yam!

🤣🤣

I do the same thing!

I'm curious: Did you start with the first season? I'm a huge Seinfeld fan but the first season (and the second imo) is but a mere glimmer of the greatness to come. I'm surprised you powered through to the good stuff.

@@Flayne009imo the second season has some of the best episodes

Why don’t you ever laugh? That’s so sad 😞 you’ve attracted me to your spectrum-ness by making me want to make you laugh 😭

And to think each eposode is based on Larry David or a writers life experience is gold pure gold. We all know someone in our life like a cast member of Seinfeld, that's the genius of the show.😊

you get the vibe

David was gone, so Jerry had a lot more to handle. I’m guessing the stand up monologues became too much of a task

Next to Veep. Julia Louis is the greatest sitcom actress of all time tho!

No, unarguably the greatest!

@@MustangMike012 Happy holidays to u too buddy

It's amazing how well it's held up. 30+ years later and it's still on cable TV on multiple channels every day. The only show in modern history that could potentially compete with that longevity is maybe The Office?

1. The Simpsons 2. Seinfeld 3. The Office

He also did it when he left George with Elaine's dad when he got up to go to the bathroom. S2 ep3 I think

Also when George's parents found out he slept with a girl on their bed

It's so effing funny I have no words.

Not that theres anything wrong with it.... 😏

His goofy smile is priceless

Jerry also spoofs himself in the Summer of George episode... "What's the deal with airplane peanuts?" It's about nothing.

It's gonna be rough.

Vegatable lasagna over there, classic.

That's right.

8 ball

Yeah, that’s right

Definitely

@J. Eagle LOL

@J. Eagle Exactly

agreed and words that became part of everyday speaking

Larry David, Jerry's big influence on the show??

Man it was pure trash…and don’t let me start with the 80s where crime was the number 1 hobby of my fellow new yorkers

Ain't much better now

@@koboldengineering7687 until you learn to read and actually understand numbers ... people like you wouldnt last a day in 90s NY, when for example the homicide rater per 100k was 5 times higher then today.

@@diedampfbrasse98 ok?

I think New York was probably nice in the 1820s. That was a great decade!

Yeah, that's some awesome accidental foreshadowing 🤣

İf technology supposed to make our lives better than why the hell we miss times in older days.

Everyone believes the past to be better.

The 90s sucked!

@@thinkforyourself828 I'll will say that movies and music were better in the past, but TV shows (sorry) and video games are better today.

@@kitcoffey7194 Yeah, it's not like it also had Nirvana and Pulp Fiction. Oh wait...

I love this

@@Mskatz007 🥰

Same

@@avifu1316 🫶

Me Too!

Nice joke about female self-obsession

Love this and king of queens

So I’m NOT the only one! I remember thinking - this is dumb and who’s that Radar lookalike. Sometime after the show ended, something clicked- and I couldn’t get enough of it. I too bought the complete set - with the comments and all. The bloopers are even funnier - because you know the actual scene. You can sometimes see them start to crack up in the scenes that aired. I learned my lesson and watched ‘King of Queens’ during its run. Jerry Stiller was gold.

Jerry Stiller is absolutely hilarious as Georges dad. For example, the old "stop short" trick he says," I invented that 30 years ago. he (Kramer) stole it from me." This was his reaction when his wife says, " Kramer made a pass at me in the car".. He stopped short and reached over to protect her from hitting windshield. Very funny stuff. Then, when Stiller arranged an interview for George to be a bra salesman. "The least you can do is go to the library and do some research on bras." George says, What is there to know? Stiller demands his wife bring one to look at. She comes back with it, Stiller grabs it and says, "well there's the loops in back and cups in front". He tosses it back to his wife, it falls on the table. And she screams "now it has ketchup all over it." And George is just shaking his head not believing the whole scene. Imho, Stiller was a great minor actor in this series. Perfect as George's father.

…and his domain.

At first, I saw him as a Radar lookalike but eventually, IMO, I felt he was the best actor of them all.

Teens!

Seinfeld and x files

Larry King

@@bossfan49 I thought so, but wasn't sure.

@@babydriver8134 Larry King said to Jerry: "they didn't cancel you, you cancel them right?" ...somehow Jerry got offended and overrracted and didn't let it go.

@@GabrielGarcia-jf2uc and?

Jay Leno not Larry king I think

It's what Larry David wanted for himself.

Jerry is a comedian who frequently appears on TV. George’s is a mystery.

@@cactaceoushe’s stocky, strong and fast he can run like the wind!

@@23aceballer Powerful. He is so powerful he can lift 100 lbs right above his head.

@@cactaceous Supposed to be snark but seriously, how many men can do it? Hardly anyone.

From the butter substitute lol

Perish

😮my whole life I thought it was a soccer team?!!

George must have Jedi mind tricked the guy because George reads the price and it's $1.89 but the shopkeeper says it's $1.19.

He's later thinks of a comeback... "well, the jerk store called and they're running out of you!"

Hell, it'll be syndicated forever.. It'll always be showing on some channel

​@@user-fs7dr1wi9rI sure hope so 😃

“Sack Lunch” 😂

For me seasons 7-9 are prime Seinfeld firing on all cylinders. There are some of us later season lovers out there.

​@@Flayne009 I agree. 5 and 6 have their standouts too, but for the most part 7-8-9 are my favorites.

Instantly emasculated!

Her name is Renee Faia

​@@Rick621533:59

credit shouldn't go to one individual

@@fascinatinglist9654 depends on the show or film though right? For example quentin tarantino writes his whole scrip by himself and other people would make very minor adjustments after the fact so tarantino deserves the credit right? But for breaking bad and better call saul everyone gives Vince gilligan the credit when in reality Peter gould and a whole team come together to write those shows.

in a interview both jerry and larry revealed that they wrote all the scripts in the first 7 seasons.

@@tomgardner8825 didn't know this, that's very impressive.

Aaron Sorkin and David Kelley wrote almost every episode of their shows. Kelley was simultaneously writing The Practice, Ally McBeal and Boston Public which is totally insane.

What language are you attempting here?

Friends is nowhere even close to seinfeld

I tried to call you but you phone went str8 to voice-mail.

@@justamangoddamn Yeah man, a lot of the episodes from the last season really reeked of desperation. They were really out of steam by then. I've never watched the finale. Just not the same show.

That's the one with Jerry and Kramer trying to remember what the story of Cain and Abel was about Kramer discovering the Merv Griffin set was after the commercial break

@@CaptainJZH Oh ok, thanks a lot. For some reason I don't remember the Cain and Abel segment.

@@eleven57icare Though the 9th season has *The Betrayal* (adapted from an outside story) on balance it is somewhat of a letdown compared to the 8th season.

Yea it's really fascinating to see the edits they make for time
