Lol "spoiler alerts" I've watched every seinfeld episode over 30 still love em

Anyway we shouldn't ignore that Seinfeld is undoubtedly one of the best sitcoms ever, and one of the most important television series in history. Due to its specific humor, great characters, and real-life situations that it depicted, the show is still enormously popular even today.🥰🥰🥰✌✌✌

The best ‘show about nothing’ of all time. Actually still the funniest of all time.
Nobody is perfect with these types of errors. I still love it❤️

The scene with Jerry and Detective Bookman had to be assembled in editing because Jerry couldn’t stop breaking character and laughing no matter how many takes they tried, so they had to use the parts that were in character.

The only one I'll gripe about whether it's a 'mistake' is the one with Elaine imagining Jean Paul the runner saying, "I trust Elaine, she is my friend." I always felt like it was just this, her imagining it, not necessarily her recounting in her mind a direct quote. It's the kind of thing that you might imagine and get down about when feeling like you've let someone down.

I caught one not long ago - when Jerry's dad was using his exercise contraption rigged to Kramer's doorknob and it woke Kramer up making him think it was someone trying to break in. Kramer's clock said 5:30 and after a cut to Morty in the hallway and back the clock then said 5:26. But knowing Kramer, he's probably got one of those backwards-moving clocks. Hahaha.

Another inconsistency within the “moving paper”, George has his shirt on when he comes barreling out of the bathroom. When he “goes to the office” he doesn’t just unbutton his shirt, he takes it off all the way baby!

I've watched this series many times and I still watch it to this day. I've never noticed those mistakes before.

Seinfeld such a great and unique sitcom.👍

Another one is the “fungus medicine”. After Jerry steals his gf’s fungal cream and asks Elaine to question her bf about it, he deposits the medicine into her bag. Immediately after he’s near his table where either Kramer or George is sitting and you can see that Jerry is still holding said medicine.

TWIX; How about the fact that George couldn't get his Twix bar from the machine, then the mechanic got the last one (or 2). Yet George's candy line up consisted of all Twix bars!!? Had to be what, half dozen Twix there? Where did George acquire all those Twix?

[abacab]

The peephole episode. Kramer can be seen on his sofa, but when he goes to the door and opens it, there is a wall directly behind him.

To add to #2: I've always found it hilarious that they overdubbed Larry David's voice saying "Sorry!" as a substitute for the extra who smashed Elaine's foot with his cane.

3:35 The briefcase is NOT _closed..._ it's still _open!_ Look carefully and you'll see the top is broken off and set to the side.

It's broken, not closed.

The biggest mistake I caught in Seinfeld was in The Face Painter. George states that he said "[I love you] once, to a dog. He licked himself and left the room." However, over four years earlier, in The Ex-Girlfriend, Jerry asks George if he told his girlfriend he loved her, with George replying "Oh, I had no choice. She squeezed it out of me! She'd tell me she loved me. Alright, at first, I just look at her. I'd go 'Oh, really?' or 'Boy, that's, that's something.' But, eventually you have to come back with 'Well, I love you.' You know, you can only hold out for so long!"

[territalk]

I always noticed that with the vending machine episode.... so funny!... George didn’t have any more money after losing the stuck Twix. Yet in the end, he was able to buy several candy bars to do his blind taste test with the employees.

The irony of WatchMojo leaving a mistake in this video. Referring to the briefcase as a suitcase at 3:52

[Nekotaku_TV]

9:45 Haha, funny how this one is replayed the most. But it's not strange... he just said it around her and we didn't see it, obviously.
