Minutes later, the group is hauled away to jail for violating the town’s new “Good Samaritan law,” which basically makes it illegal to do nothing when witnessing a fellow citizen in crisis. Instead of intervening to help the overweight victim (played by late comedian John Pinette), they stand on the sidelines, take a video of the crime on Kramer’s camera, and make fat-shaming jokes about the victim, to boot. While waiting for the plane issue to be fixed, the gang goes into town and ends up witnessing a carjacking. To celebrate, the duo, along with Elaine ( Julia Louis-Dreyfus) and Kramer ( Michael Richards), take the network’s private plane on a trip to Paris of course, they never make it to France.Īfter a Kramer-led mishap, the aircraft is forced to make an emergency landing in the fictional town of Latham, Massachusetts. In “The Finale,” Jerry and George ( Jason Alexander) receive some fantastic news when their sitcom Jerry - which was shelved five years prior - is given the green light by NBC.
#RANKING BEST SEINFELD EPISODES SERIES#
In fact, hear us out, here: the Seinfeld series finale was actually pretty darn great. Now, to celebrate the 22th anniversary of the show’s end, we’re here to say the finale wasn’t all that bad. Comedy fans credit Seinfeld as the start of much of that growth – even as they lament the disappointing way the series wrapped up. In the 20-plus years since “The Finale” aired, the sitcom has evolved in complexity and ambition, and the show’s co-creator, Larry David, has pioneered the cringe-comedy genre with Curb Your Enthusiasm. There was no happy ending here - and television audiences just weren’t having it. But when all was said and done, the finale drew the ire of fans and critics alike. It was one of the most highly anticipated hours of television ever broadcast, attracting a record-breaking 76 million viewers.
