Featured reviews
Being the bizarre season it is, this is a quite normal episode, with just one story line being weird.
Elaine's story is the funniest with Julia on fire. Jerry's story starts kind of slow but picks up when the second Mandelbaum appears. George's story (the weirdest) starts off great, with George trying to be like someone who gets beautiful women to the point he can't notice he is already getting a beautiful woman, but ends pretty forced. Kramer's is the weakest with no real funny scenes.
Two great story lines, one good story line and one bad story line.
