Fun Stuff

Trivia:
Larry David was the original voice of Newman in "The Revenge," but Wayne Knight overdubbed the voice for syndication. more
Goofs:
Incorrectly regarded as goofs: In common with many other sitcoms, details of characters' back-histories change through the life of the series. We don't count these inconsistencies as goofs in long-running shows. more
Quotes:
Newman: I propose... AN ALLIANCE.
Jerry: An alliance?... Deal.
[Jerry and Newman share an evil laugh]
Jerry: [stops laughing abruptly] Now, get the hell out of here.

Lennon & McCartney, 7 March 2005
Author: Rick41 from West Chester, Pa

The best television show ever. Ever. It's been off for how many years and we still try and get our 1 1/2 hour fix every weeknight. Like those famous Beatles, the combination of Larry David (too outrageous) and Seinfeld (too pedestrian) was so much greater than the sum of the parts. Classic ensemble work by Jerry, Alexander, Richards and Louis-Dreyfus. Richards and Louis-Dreyfus are all-time comic all-stars in their own right. It took them about 1/2 to 1 year to get up to speed and then they're off and running. With David gone the concept showed considerable wear in the final season, where some episodes are a grim caricature of earlier successes (e.g., George's "Twix" episode). The Puddy story lines were the show's one regular miss, particularly so towards the end. But what a run! And completed by a fitting send-off. The only television series I've watched regularly in the last 25 years. The DVD collections are highly recommended and include loads of fun commentary from the stars. 10 out of 10.
