This is the end.

                                                        This is it.

Well this is it, my last post of the year. It’s been a fun ride writing about a show I watch off and on. I enjoy Seinfeld, but probably not to the extent one would think after writing a 9 week blog about it. It’s a good show with a great cast of characters and many memorable moments. I only got the idea of making a blog about Seinfeld after I was “brainstorming” ideas and a Seinfeld marathon happened to be on.

Will I ever write here again? Odds are I won’t update this blog again unless there’s a need for it. Thanks for reading and good luck.

Favorite Scene

After thinking about it I have finally pinpointed one of my most favorite moments from Seinfeld. During season 5’s The Opposite, Jerry has an interaction with one of the many women he’s seen dating over the series and it ends just like all of his other relationships. But the way it ends is the best part. Take a moment to watch this.

I love it. Jerry has finally decided that everything is eventually going to work out for him in the end and he doesn’t need to dwell on a relationship he knows isn’t going to go anywhere. He just takes it in stride and ends it by walking out of the diner. What’s even better is that he is singing “She’ll be coming around the mountain when she comes” as he leaves meaning he knows its going to happen again.

If you guys have a favorite moment feel free to post it in the comments.

The Red Dot

After being without internet for the past two weeks and without Netflix I have found myself watching the first three seasons of Seinfeld for entertainment. One episode in particular that stood out was season 3’s twelfth episode, The Red Dot.

Airing in 1991, The Red Dot is about how George decides to buy Elaine a gift after she gets him a job at her company during a Christmas party. While out shopping with Jerry they come across a cashmere sweater that is discounted to $85. The catch is a small, hard to see red dot. Being the cheapskate he is George buys the sweater for Elaine hoping she won’t notice.

Spoiler. She notices.

 At first she is thrilled with the gift, but after Kramer points out the red dot she becomes angry with George for buying her broken goods.

Throughout our lives we have all experienced a “red dot” so to speak. Maybe it’s a certain personality quirk that a friend has like constantly chewing with their mouth open. Maybe they’re missing part of their ear and now that it has been pointed out you can never unsee it. Or perhaps you are now realizing that you keep breathing in and out. Since I’ve pointed it out now all you’re going to focus on in the next few minutes is that you’re manually breathing. My bad.

Have any “red dots” about people you know or things you encounter every day?
