About Seinfeld:
Seinfeld stars Jerry Seinfeld as a stand-up comedian whose life in New York City is made even more chaotic by his quirky group of friends who join him in wrestling with life's most perplexing, yet often trivial questions. Often described as "a show about nothing," Seinfeld mines the humor in life's mundane situations like waiting in line, searching for a lost item, or the trials and tribulations of dating. Co-starring are Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Jerry's ex-girlfriend and current platonic pal, Elaine Benes; Jason Alexander as George Costanza, Jerry's neurotic hard-luck best friend; and Michael Richards as Jerry's eccentric neighbor, Kramer.

Elaine Mistakes Her Boyfriend's Background | The Wizard | Seinfeld

You gotta admire how SEINFIELD episodes could turn a tiny issue into a convoluted puzzle for a whole episode.

[Redderer]

I like how when he mentions South Africia, is just makes it more ambiguous.

The waitress won the scene when she said " I'll give you a few minutes to decide" 😂😂😂😂

[SkiKoala]

Loved the waitress

"I'll give you a couple minutes to decide..."

[spiffylogic]

If anyone’s wondering, the actor’s name is Samuel Bliss Cooper, and according to IMDb, he is of Russian and English descent.

"YO YO! Turn it DOWN!" With the added bass in his voice. 😂

On first glance I'd say he's white, but once Jerry gave me the option that he could be black. I just kept seeing features in him that made me think, hey maybe he is black. Such a great casting choice. You really can't tell.

[nathanrose]

“Why would you take me to a Spanish restaurant if I’m black?” That’s gold! 😂

[sashasingh]

Love how they’re like, “so we’re just a couple of white people?” and they both look bitterly disappointed 😅😅

[Glenuig]

This is why the writing of this show was next level. No one could have predicted the punchline would be the boyfriend thinking Elaine was Hispanic :D

[AlexXanderMarketing]

“You know how it is….”
Elaine: “Maaaaybe…”

Absolutely priceless line delivered beyond perfection.

[KeionBrownVicechairOfDUAFC]

The disappointment when they found out they were just regular white people was so iconic 😂😂😂

[classics]

“Why would you take me to a Spanish restaurant because I’m Black?” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[jenniferohjenny]

"Soooo, we're just a couple of white people...soo do u wanna go to THE GAP" still one of my favorite ' SEINFIELD' episodes 😂😂😂😂

[Outstralian]

I always thought Jerry planted the seed of doubt into Elaine's head just to mess with her

[folks]

This episode is very telling. She felt calling the black woman sistah because she thought she was with a black man. Switched up her whole personality. Even put in a different set of lenses to recognize racism.

[LaurennM]

Hahah the disappointment in “so we’re just a couple of white people?” 😂

[DiBaozi]

Darryl gives me nerdy Justin Timberlake vibes.

[trequor]

This isnt the funniest episode of Seinfeld, but it is a masterclass in screenwriting. The way they deploy clues about his ethnicity, then flip them around and around again to confuse the audience while they become more and less sure at the same time... it takes talent!

[jorgenjorgensen]

George was so uncomfortable with the black conversation he tipped without hesitation
