Episode where George decides to do everything opposite of his instincts. Have this episode protected on my DVR
This is also the same episode that George lands the job with the Yankees.
"Why did it all turn out like this for me? I had so much promise. I was personable. I was bright. Oh, maybe not academically speaking, but I was perceptive. I always know when someone's uncomfortable at a party. It all became very clear to me sitting out there today, that every decision I've ever made in my entire life has been wrong. My life is the complete opposite of everything I want it to be. Every instinct I have in every aspect of life, be it something to wear, something to eat... It's often wrong."

Cheers was good. M*A*S*H got really preachy and sappy the last couple of years. Still had some great moments, I just felt like they were always trying to push some message down my throat. Great thing about Seinfeld was the kept the original cast pretty much intact and never really tried to do anything but be funny.
Pretty much all the great ones have already been named, except this one that I always liked...
The Write-Off
Jerry: "So we're going to make the post office pay for my new stereo now?"
Kramer: "It's a write-off for them."
Jerry: "How is it a write-off?"
Kramer: "They just write it off."
Jerry: "Write it off what?"
Kramer: "Jerry, all these big companies, they write off everything."
Jerry: "You don't even know what a write-off is."
Kramer: "Do you?"
Jerry: "No, I don't."
Kramer: "But they do. And they're the ones writing it off."

All this being said, I still say that 'Woody's Wedding' from Cheers are the best episodes of all time, any sitcom.
Seinfeld - The Serenity Now - YouTube
Shouldn't be too surprising, considering my screen name.
"Serenity now, insanity later"

Oh, and Merv Griffin's set and Jerry drugging his girlfriend so he can play with all her classic toys.
Mattel electronic football FTW!

My family was helping me move the other week, I yelled serenity now a lot that day.
