you are a fool to include the barber and the merv griffin show in the top 5. They're good episodes but there are many more that fill those two spots: the cheever letters,the opposite, etc. I could go on and on but do I really have to? |

Well, the chioces aren't important.
Look at the bold, underlined, upper-case heading and the neatly numbered listing. It's a nice post. Really very nice and good. |

Back in the good old days, when I used to post, I set up an apparently successful attempt at finding out the people's choice of favorite episode. Check out this link, it's a link to the finals, I did it season by season, just search for "Greatest episode contest" if you want to see them.
Here's the link to the finals....

I'm with Jimmy on this one- that is one HELL of a handsome post although he forgot to capitalize the "o" of The Outing... I'm afraid we'll have to penalize you one stroke for that.

That has to be the absolute worst top 5 I have ever seen in my life. The only one on there worth mentioning is The Contest and I wouldn't rate that but maybe 9th, but the Merv Griffin Show?? damn if it wasn't for Kramer's storyline in that episode that would be one of the worst Seinfeld shows ever made. |

But, do you see how the episodes all get longer as you go down the list? That's what really makes this list work well. It's flowing... Jimmy likes flowing, cascading lists. Thick, lustrous lists are very important to Jimmy.
Who cares about choices? |

Yes Jimmy, flowing cascading lists are really nice and good, but one might wonder if he put the Rogers Roasters as #1 and the Outing as #4 then removed "the" from #5 it would create a kind of a sandwich effect and may appear more symmetrical, do you see what I'm saying? |

But then one has to wonder what would have happened if Tolstoy called the outing "Jerking off...What is it good for???" |

Which gives a whole new meaning to the name "Testic-off". |

Damn, I ruined a perfectly good joke...Not "The Outing"..."The Contest".
Or how about we don't do the show at all...how's that? |
