The Nose Job

I like the bit where Kramer tells her to get a nose job

The first half of the episode is fantastic. George and Jerry discuss and illustrate their superficial personalities.

The second half really drags and fails to deliver the same laughs as the first part.

I really didn't care about Kramer and Elaine's story line.

It feels as if the first half belongs to season 3 and the second to season 2 or 1.

That being said, it is enjoyable episode but not up there with the season 3 standard.

Also, every single one of Jerry's stand up bits is absolute gold.

As a big fan who has watched the series many times, I can categorically state that the chess match between brain-Seinfeld and penis-Seinfeld has to be the absolute worst scene in all of Seinfeld. What were they thinking? Jerry can't act! Don't give him stuff to do by himself! Especially stuff that's not funny in the first place! The scene belongs in some third rate sitcom in the 70s! What is it doing in the best comedy series of all time? Other parts of the episode too suffer from some cheesy direction and dialogue. For example, the intercuts to the elevator don't work, and certain dialogues run a tad too long ("Shut up George" should have ended it; why the "Shut up?" "Yes" "Interesting" that follows?). Seems to me some cast member or someone wrote this one. It's just not right.

That said the main story with the nose job is a little funny. Still, an easy contender for one of the worst Seinfeld episodes.

What a Rhino

March 15th 2023rd.

What is this episode about?: George is superfical about a nose.

Elaine bunks with Audry

Jerry deals with a script reader

Kramer gets a Jacket.

Story and production: A great episode.

Highlight: Kramer being a loud mouth.

Laugh Meter: 9

Villain: George for being Rude to Audrey. By the end, Audrey and Kramer become the villain because Audrey hitches with Kramer at the end. That was rude of them.

Girlfriend Attractiveness level: 10. Audrey was a dime. Jerry's girl was a 7. Red head just turn me on.

What can be learned?: Get a nose job and leave the eh cups alone.

Verdict: Elaine... Shut up. She should have done that for seasons 7 to 9.

Horrible writing. "Is it your contention that Shakespeare was an imposter?" Well the whole book was about how Shakespeare is an Imposter, and after reading the entire book the landlord didn't know?! It's like the Seinfeld writer wasn't even paying attention to what he was writing. And the scene that Jerry and Tawny K. are reading is gibberish, it doesn't even read like a real fake play. The entire episode feels like bad sitcom writing, and is full of camera tricks that are decidedly non-Seinfeld. And it has an 8/10 rating on IMDb? They must be friends of the landlord.
