Another favorite that really highlighted Julia's comic acting ability was the whole birthday gifts scene from the one where they were a couple again after agreeing to some "rules".  Two moments in particular: where she opens Jerry's gift and sees it's cash, and where she holds up the touching card that Kramer gave her and puts it on the counter.  Both were silent moments where she managed to get laughs just with expression and body language (and you had NO doubts what she was thinking in each case).

The whole scene in Bizzaro Jerry's apartment.

Jerry accuse the dermatologist of being a pimple popper and afterwards, a guy walks up to thank her for saving him of skin cancer. The way Jerry then says "skin cancer" cracks me up.

George does the opposite. I especially love "Hi. I'm Victoria" and also when the movie theater applauds him for yelling at the jerks.

Disease and illness was always hilarious on the show.  Bubble Boy, Jerry trying his act for a friend in the hospital, George's heart attack, George going to the fortune teller and getting paranoid.  "Lupus!!  Is it lupus?!?"  And the "white spot" in The Pilot episodes, Kramer and Mickey having pretend illnesses for doctors in training (one of who was Daniel Dae Kim) and getting gonorrhea from a tractor. Frank's proctologist "The Assman."  And...of course...Dr. Victor Raider Wexler.

Tidbit:  Victoria was played by Michelle Pfeiffer's sister, Deedee.

One of my all time favorite scenes is in The Breakup (especially when George says it's like a prison escape, and throws his arms out as tho' he's up against the wall).  This is when George has successfully broken up with Marlene (the sexy southern gal who just doesn't "get" Jerry's humor):

I love the scene where Kramer and Micky have a double date with two women they've never met before, and fight about who gets to sit next to whom.

And I second the nomination of the library cop episode. I love Mr. Bookman's rant, and I especially love the fact that Jerry can't keep a straight face during it.

Frank Costanza explaining bra sizes to George, and getting ketchup on Estelle's bra in the process. And, of course, Frank and Kramer trying out the "bro."

In "The Comeback" when George is in Jerry's apartment vehemently expressing he's using the Jerkstore comeback to his coworker, arm motions and all.

In "The Limo" when Jerry and George are talking about how to get out of the limo and George says to jump out, Jerry says who are we, Mannix?

In "The Chicken Roaster" after Jerry and Kramer switch apartments, the scene where Jerry tells Kramer he's afraid the the dummy is going to kill him during the night. Then the later scene where Jerry is acting like Kramer.

I nominated this one for the King of the Mountain thing a few days back, so it may eventually show up there (they're probably hugely backlogged by now, and just had a Seinfeld one up there so it may be awhile).  But I do love this segment.  Not just for the song, not just for how low and scheming it shows George as, but for the LOOK on George's face at the "where could I be" part.

I think I love Kramer assuming Jerry's personality even more than I do Jerry assuming Kramer's!

 

Thanks for reminding me of the Mannix line!

Heh.

 

That episode DOES get dated by the Kenny Rogers Roasters.  Those used to be all over the US, and now they're all gone other than a single location in California, and a string of locations in Asia.

Hmmm...ok.  I was hoping to find a thread that would invite "Favorite Episodes"...did I miss it somehow?  Anyway, my favorite episode was on tonight: Season 3 Episode 2: The Truth.  In a way, it's two wonderful stories in one.  George worked up the courage to tell his girlfriend (Valerie Mahaffy--great actor!) that "it's not you, it's me" and included the chopsticks in her hair and her precocious pronunciation of papier mache, etc, that drove him crazy.  Then, the icing on the cake for me is Kramer dating Elaine's roommate, complete with tribal music that they cavort to around Elaine's apartment.  I think I could happily watch this once a week.

In "The Cadillac" when Kramer puts the cable guy (disguising himself as the phone guy) on hold and plays the new age music.

Not sure of the episode, but I love the "Tommy Tune is a very good dancer" conversation between George and his parents.

The look on Elaine's face in The Fatigues when Eddie Sherman reads his first catalog entry: "It's a hot night. The mind races. You think about your knife..."
