Episode 23: The Face Painter

Episode #109; 6:23


Our Summary

George decides to tell his gal that he loves her, but she answers "Let's get something to eat". Kramer gets into a fight with Barry the monkey, has to say sorry, and finds out that George's gal can't hear out of one ear, so George tries again, and she totally shuts him down with "I heard you the first time". Meanwhile, Jerry gets free tickets to the Devils v. Rangers playoff game, but doesn't give the day after thank you, so he and Kramer must sit with crazy Puddy with paint on their bodies to spell out D-E-V-I-L-S! Puddy paints his face, to which Elaine objects, so he paints his body, as just explained.



Our Commentary

This hilarious episode also nearly makes the Top 50, missing it by about an eighth of a millimeter. Beautiful stuff with Kramer's Stubborn, Stupid, Silly Man, Alec Berg, pretty big Matzoh ball hanging out, Puddy with his and Elaine's "Yeah, that's right", George's "I love you", and Sienna's retort of I heard you the first time, whilst Adam and I go: "Ohhhhhhhhhhhh!", Kramer and Barry, Fred Stoller and Kenny Kramer at the Devils game, El Diablo, Dios Mio, Take a listen:

and a Gary Fogel link complete this hilarious episode. This would be longer, but I gotta take a crap. Overall, excellent episode. Adam - Great episode. The matzoh ball hanging out. Brilliant. George saying I love you twice. Barry the monkey and everything else in between was simply beautiful. I enjoyed myself immensely.
