“I’m Keith Hernandez”

By Tangotiger, 12:38 PM

To me, that was Seinfeld’s best episode.  So many snippets… “back and to the left” (with Kramer), “like a baby” (also with Kramer).  That it’s also a baseball-theme was a bonus.

The other one for me was the dating setup back in year 1 (must have been year 1)… “hue, rosy glow”, “eyebrows?”.  And of course Master of My Domain… “I’m out” (kramer)… “I shave.... not every day” (Elaine/Kramer).

This guy however nominated The Race, which I seem to remember watching only once, maybe twice, and not liking it.  I completely missed the subtext of that episode, which this reviewer highlights for me.

Anyway, feel free to note your favorites… I’m sure there’s another 30 or 50 catch phrases that will pop up before the day is through. “They’re spectacular!”.... “Next!”.... I could go on all day… It’s like Beatles songs really.... I say “I’ll write home every day-ay”, and you’ll be cursing me all day while you have the song stuck in your head.
