Well, my last post worked, but there's something wrong, Stan. I was trying to post in this thread, but it wouldn't let me. I kept getting "Your post cannot be posted because of sexual content" or something like that. So, i started a new thread in the GENERAL section about Elaine being pregnant and it worked....Weird, wild stuff.

A bird just flew into my big Freak-head!

To Holly: Thanks for mutton!

ELAINE: He took it out.

JERRY: (confused) He what?

ELAINE: He took (blows on her glasses twice to clean them) it out.

JERRY: He took what out?

ELAINE: It.

JERRY: He took It, Out?

ELAINE: Yessiree Bob.

"I'm a walkin' candy apple!"

Maybe the dingo ate your baby!

You can't spare a square???

The way George describes Elaine to an usher at a movie theater "I went in with a pretty woman? You know, kinda short, big wall o'
hair, face like a frying pan?"

Here's to those who wish us well, and those who don't can go to hell!

Does anyone know what type of schnapps unlocks Elaine's 'vault'?

Peach.

He schnapped me.

Maybe I'll go visit my mother. She just bought me some panties and they're all... laid out for me.

Do any pictures of Elaine's (nip exposing)Christmas card exist?

Anyone have Seinfeld Theme party invitation ideas or other ideas to make the party memorable?

What about Seinfeld games?

I have the same birthday as JLD January 13th and our birthday is in 2 days and I would like to have her email to wish her a happy birthday if anyone has it

Here's a thought......BYE BYE!

Gareth:
Are you kidding? Obviously you're entitled to your opinion, and so if you didn't think she was funny, then I'm not going to argue with you. But to describe Julia Louis-Dreyfus's acting as "wooden"...I'm sorry I just find that wholly inaccurate. She's actually quite animated.

One of the things we get to see in Season 4 (which we now have on DVD) is the emergence of Julia as a terrific physical comedienne. She's grossly underrated, which we should expect, having worked in the shadow of one of the all-time greats. But while Michael Richards gets well-deserved credit for all his shtick, Julia gets no credit whatever for hers. It's so much more than the get-out shove.

I especially like the cough/stutter when she lies or says something uncomfortable or embarrassing. I enjoy her facial expressions. Watch the look on her face when Kramer convinces her that Dr. Reston would want to hear how often they "do it." Watch her expression when it begins to dawn on her that Jimmy is the other guy. Look at her face when she opens that bathroom door on the airplane or when she says, "Oh, they've got cookies." And the body English Julia adds to so many of her lines.

So much of what Julia does is so fused with the Elaine character that, unfairly, her shtick almost disappears.

Yes, it took me a while to become an Elaine fan when I first started watching the show, but I appreciate her alot more now. However, to me, and I might get a lot of crap for this, she's still the one I'd miss the least if she wasn't on the show. I do like her character alot more now than I did when I first started watching.
There's only one little part of a scene that still makes me cringe because I find it totally over-done. When she goes to the Andover Shop with Jerry and Craig says he needs Jerry's number on the back of the cheque, then he says to Elaine "and perhaps you can give me your number too"...Her reaction to that as the scene fades out is way too much. She laughs a sort of shy laugh, but it's so over-acted to me and goes on for way too long that it still bothers me every time I see it.
