Well yes, that's how Alton put it.  He was, after all, a man of letters.  Understandably, the Dept. of Defense opted to tell his family he was KIA over the Pacific.  

Edited by Lobo

No.  But he looked very different in later seasons than he did earlier in the series.  

I didn't realize he was based on a real guy that Larry David knew in media.  Well, the name anyway.  

what about Elaine’s old guy?  Owen?  Yankee bean. he could’ve fought the japs. 

Well, we know Owen is 66 years old in the Autumn of 1991.  Making him 16 at the time of the Pearl Harbor Attack.  We could assume he enlists/is drafted two years later in 1943 and does indeed go make trouble for either Japan, or Germany.  

In the United States Navy.  

 

also, I just want to tell Cosmo---thank you for your service.  You never really talked about it and I get it.  But thank you.  I'm glad you don't have a Federal Record.

Nothing funny about that.

Yankee bean, Yankee bean, I like my...yankee...bean.

You know, you got a great 'John Houseman' name. Alec Beeeerg. Did you hand in your assignment, Mr. Beeeerg?

Anyway, I don't need your help.

Oh, don't you? Joke boy? You really think you can manipulate that beautiful young woman like the half-soused nightclub rabble that lap up your inane "observations"?

 

 

Half-soused is great.

Ok more trivia.

What is the name of the manager of the coffee shop?   I believe it's only ever mentioned once.

I was gonna say Dalrymple joined the CG, but it was Greenpeace.

Isn't Larry the cook the manager? It's certainly not Paco!

Look, it's a greasy spoon of a diner but they're not gonna put a guy who consistently lets his pony tail rubber band fall into the soup is not gonna get promoted to manager.  

 

Okay, shit---to Biff's question.  I think it's a trick question.  I remember there was Larry who comes out to threaten Courtney Cox or somebody for bringing in outside condiments to the diner.  Kramer had something to do with it as well.  there was the cashier, who after the main 4, appears in more episodes than anyone else although she's only credited with 1 speaking line or some shit like that by SAG rules.  I remember there was an old Greek Man who takes over the diner at some point later in the series, and he's technically the manager too, and Elaine gets all pissed at him because she thinks he's hiring busty waitresses but turns out they're his daughters.  

So one of those three?  Speaking of that last guy...there's a parody porn video for every damn movie and TV show.  But I'd like to see those Russ Meyer waitresses in a girl-on-girl-on-girl scene with an Elaine look alike set in Monk's diner.  It would fulfill so many of my fantasies.  I'd feel like George having sex, while eating a Reuben and watching TV on a handheld device.

Well I was going for Larry.

And I, for brevity.  

My posts are taking a really long time to post lately, otherwise I think I won the trivia game.  I hit "submit reply" and the box changes colors to grey and then the whole window sits idle for a solid 45 seconds.  

Speaking of Grey.  Sasha apparently did do a Seinfeld parody sketch with another woman and a "kramer" look alike.  Do not recommend.  But then, I had 45 seconds to kill just now.

Can one of the girls look like Jerry?

So you can get all mixed up in a perverse sexual amalgam of some girl and your best friend?

And there will definitely be a scene where the Elaine-lookalike slides her tongue all around him like a snake in the panties her mother laid out for her

Well I, uh, I’m not sure how you pronounce it or anything, but I, uh, I believe it’s ménage à trois?

There will be a 3some scene, yes.  With Buck, Elaine, and the she-Jerry.  

In another scene, we see Elaine lookalike pleasuring herself and loses a bet.  Still another scene, has her date taking IT...OUT.

I'll get the thread back on track so Biff doesn't get in trouble with his wife, or mom, or whoever put the scare in him earlier.

IN-THREAD POLL.  Top 5 answers are on the board.  

What is the most memorable scene on the show in which 'beans' are mentioned?

1.  The Yankee Bean song from Elaine to Owen.

2.  Newman's interview on the Merv Griffin show about generic wax beans.

3.  George and Jerry remarking about their old high school gym teacher's teeth looking like baked beans. 

4.  Jerry and his soon-to-be-ex-girlfriend discussing the tastiness of a plate of beans.

5.  Babu's culinary treat:  Frank & Beans. 

(hint, it's a trick question)

Correct answer:

Don't lie to me, butter bean. We're taking it up a notch.

This is correct.  Anyone selecting Newman's story about taking the labels off of his cans of wax beans....you have officially hit 'rock bottom.'  You should shut down and retool.  

More trivia - my wife and I often try to name all of the fake movies they went to see (or wanted to see) off the top of our heads…

I’ll start:

  • Prognosis Negative
  • Chunnel
  • Rochelle Rochelle
  • Firestorm
  • Blame it on the Rain
  • Ponce de Leon
  • The Muted Heart

Yankee Bean clear cut winner, but Newman’s wax bean story is sneaky good.

Check Mate is what they were trying to see when they all (except Kramer) ended up at Rochelle Rochelle.

Death Blow, Sack Lunch, Cry Cry Again

 

Oh shit. So bummed I forgot about Death Blow and Cry Cry Again.

Also just remembered a few from when Kramer was doing MoviePhone: Brown Eyed Girl and Mountain High, lol

I assumed you left them off because they were mentioned earlier. If not, NO SOUP FOR YOU.

That presupposes I read the thread before I just jump in and post. :D 

Would ‘Agent Zero’ count?  Technically nobody really wanted to go see it, Kramer just made a mistake. 

Yeah it counts.

Nobody wanted to see “Blame it on the Rain” either. 

A few pages back there were a bunch of movie posters for all the movies in the show.  The internet is rife with them.

Why don't you just tell me the name of the movie you'd like to see?

Besides the diner, what’s your favorite Seinfeld-universe restaurant?

I’ll go with Mendy’s.  Great soup.

Definitely not Reggie’s. No big salad there. Such bullshit.
