What's the deal with Seinfeld: Season 6?
“Seinfeld” season 6 continues the show’s forward momentum, somehow, improving upon the previous season’s jokes, compounding the main cast’s hilarious dysfunction and adding new characters into the chaos, among them, audience favorites David Puddy and J. Petermen, played by Patrick Warburton and John O’Hurley, respectively.Season highlights include “The Big Salad,” “The Jimmy,” “The Race” (with more Superman references per minute than any other episode in the series), “The Doorman” (guest-starring Larry Miller), “The Face Painter,” and “The Fusilli Jerry.”Even though the series itself is in syndication – and will probably remain so for all eternity – having the episodes in full, as they were originally broadcast (often, with a few extra scenes, jokes, etc.) and without interruption is the best way to watch these comedy classics.Extras include “Running with the Egg: Making a Seinfeld,” following the airing of an episode from its inception to its broadcast, the usual “notes about nothing,” inside looks, bloopers and behind-the-scenes outtakes, creator and cast audio commentaries, and more.Highly recommended.

More Than Just a Comedy Series
If you're a T.V. Seinfeld fan you will absolutely love the DVD's. The scenes that are cut to insert commercials by syndicators are restored on the high quality DVD versions. I grew up in the United States and had always liked the series from television. I was married while living/working/studying in China in 2002 and bought the DVD's for my wife on our coming to the United States in 2005. She had never seen Seinfeld before and had never been exposed to this style of humor or the slice of American life that the series presents. We have watched the DVD's over and over again and they never fail to make us laugh and lift our spirits when we've had a bad day. We utilize the closed captioning option and it has been a great help for my wife in acquiring an understanding of casual English usage including slang, and idiom. On a more serious note, owning so many seasons and watching the episodes regularly makes you realize the sad truth that much of American life really is focused on the themes of myopic self-interest presented and ridiculed in this series. I sometimes worry that individuals may actually see the series as a validation of their lack of ethics, morals, and connection with the Creator instead of as a revelation and jabbing at today's inappropriate social dynamics; just as the Archie Bunker/All In the Family series did in the 1970's.The DVD sets include great special features from "How It Began" to "Making a Seinfeld Episode", deleted scenes, behind the scenes commentary from cast and creators, never-before-seen standup footage of Jerry, original NBC promotional ads and trailers, outtakes and bloopers, and much, much more. It's obvious that a lot of thought and work went into producing the DVD sets and I can't wait until the remaining seasons come out for sale at Amazon. After all; "Who wouldn't love Jerry?"Episodes included in this set are:Season 6 - The Chaperone, The Big Salad, The Pledge Drive, The Chinese Woman, The Couch, The Gymnast, The Mom & Pop Store, The Soup, the Secretary, The Switch, The Race, The Label Maker, The Scofflaw, The Highlights of 100 (Parts 1 & 2), The Beard, The Kiss Hello, The Doorman, The Jimmy, The Doodle, The Fusilli Jerry, The Diplomat's Club, The Face Painter, The Understudy.

Better Than Miss Manners
What does "Seinfeld" do best? It examines the ways we can protect egos. Think about it: Whenever the fragile human body is at risk, governments and manufacturers spell out the rules. They tell us, for example, to buckle our seat belts; with certain products, we must avoid contact with eyes, refrigerate after opening, and use in a well-ventilated area.We say the ego can be "bruised," but we mean this metaphorically, for an intangible can suffer no physical harm. Egos cannot, say, slip on icy sidewalks. As a result, no one posts guidelines to protect our inner selves, and people are left to wonder, "Did I just hurt that guy's feelings, or should I be the one to take offense?" Luckily, the writers and cast of "Seinfeld" explore the rules that even Miss Manners doesn't address, such as how long to date someone after a night of disappointing sex. Season 6 continues this tradition.Why are we so ignorant about protecting the ego? "Seinfeld" shows that interacting with our fellow humans is like crossing state lines. Just as an activity might be legal in Massachusetts but outlawed in Georgia, one character will find an opinion or action tolerable while another does not. And when belief systems collide, egos get damaged.For example, Elaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) requires people, especially boyfriends, to mirror her views. In "The Couch," she meets a handsome, unpretentious furniture mover but then breaks up with him because he doesn't share her stance on abortion. Her ego cannot risk constant impact with a different conviction. And in "The Face Painter," she almost abandons Puddy (Patrick Warburton), another great male, because in preparation for a hockey playoff game, he dresses as the devil. To date Elaine, Puddy must endure her irrational requirements, like not painting his face. Angering Elaine with beliefs different from her own can be an unpleasant experience, as restaurateur Poppie (Reni Santoni) discovers when Elaine harangues him so badly over his pro-life opinions that he ends up in the hospital.Sometimes the Seinfeld characters know the appropriate behavior, but like reckless drivers ignoring the speed limit, they break the rules anyway, hoping their egos will survive the crash. In "The Gymnast," George (Jason Alexander) spies a nearly pristine eclair in the garbage. The trashcan lid might not warn, "Do not consume contents," but George still knows that he shouldn't eat what's inside. When his girlfriend's mother steps into the kitchen and observes his bad behavior, her gasp is just as panic inducing as the lights of a police cruiser in the rear-view mirror.Getting caught eating garbage deflates George's ego. He looks bad not only to this witness but also to anyone who hears the story, so he tries to rationalize what he's done. He explains to Jerry that the eclair was "above the rim" and "still had the doily," but Jerry--as unsympathetic as a highway patrolman--considers these explanations as lame as "I was just flowing with the traffic." He tickets George with his disapproval. (And the audience's egos feel good, for even if we ate an unhealthy dessert that day, at least ours didn't come from the trash.)Time and time again, "Seinfeld" demonstrates that loss of status can crumple an ego like a distracted driver T-boning another vehicle. One guarantee of status is treating other people with such respect that everyone observing the behavior thinks highly of the well-mannered character. In "The Jimmy," Elaine dates a man after a misunderstanding about his name, not because she finds him interesting or attractive. Likewise, in "The Soup," Jerry agrees to take the annoying Bania (Steve Hytner) to dinner as a thank-you for an Armani suit, not because he enjoys the company of his fellow comedian.On the other hand, when someone points out impolite behavior, the character loses status and scrambles to minimize the damage to his ego. In "The Couch," Kramer (Michael Richards) notes that Jerry should have offered the deliverymen a cold drink. Since furniture movers do not have "Please hydrate" stamped on their coveralls, Jerry obsesses over the unintended offense. He doesn't want either his friend or the deliverymen to think less of him.An even more interesting loss of status occurs in "The Big Salad." George hopes to acquire a little ego boost by treating Elaine to lunch. At the coffee shop, George's girlfriend Julie (Michelle Forbes) grabs the to-go package and then hands it off without noting who had made the actual purchase. When George later tries to get credit, Elaine cannot understand why he needs her thanks, and when Julie learns that George made a big deal about the salad, she is so annoyed that she walks out of his life. But George has hit on a heretofore unarticulated truth: the person who delivers the gift, not the person generous enough to have paid, gets the undeserved glory.Why does neither woman understand George's desire for acknowledgement? Both are attractive, and the many admiring glances they get each day reinforce their egos. Elaine draws attention for being cute and flirty; Julie is big-city beautiful, her confidence and sophistication more smartly coordinated than her clothes. George, on the other hand, is short, pudgy, and bald. He needs acknowledgement for that salad because no one is eyeing his physical appearance with appreciation. So give the poor boy a break, girls, and pump him up a little! If his ego psi drops below 6 percent, he could blow like an underinflated tire.In matters of physical harm, the judicial system will not entertain ignorance of the law as an excuse, for it has collected codes and rules in accessible books. But when intangible egos are at stake, we do not have a set of legally-binding documents that tell us how to behave. Are we wrong to re-gift or even de-gift? Must we kiss hello? When is it okay to date the girlfriend's roommate? Season 6 addresses these and other potentially ego-damaging situations to help educate us all.

SeinfeldはComplete Boxではなく、個別にシーズン買いした方がいい。
SeinfledはBox Setだと再生できないエピソードがあったりと他のレビューに書いていたりするのでお勧めできない。やはり一つのディスクに大量に詰め込みすぎるBox Setだとそういうエラーが起こりやすいよう。個別に好きなSeasonを購入した方がいいと思います。コメンタリーの無駄知識や未公開映像も個別に買えばついてくるので、そちらの方が楽しめます。クレイマーが何回ジェリーの部屋に来たかいちいちカウントするというまさに無駄なことがてんこ盛りのコメンタリーです(笑)。Seinfledは続きものではないので、MASHやチアーズのように途中からみるとわからないということもないと思うので。Season 6はなぜか他のシーズンより価格が中古品は異常に安いのでお買い得です。ただ同然の値段で24エピソードと特典映像付きなのはかなりお買い得!

la meilleure série du monde ?
Seinfeld fut dans les années 90, la plus grande série du monde, celle qui lança le stand up et la sitcom avec une recette éblouissante: des personnages irrésistibles, des dialogues au cordeau et surtout des scénarios d'une intelligence diabolique à chaque fois. le principe est simple, a show about nothing, on part d'un détail de la vie courante, d'une anecdote insignifiante et on tire l'écheveau jusqu'à ce que ça devienne hilarant. et ça l'ai à chaque fois.

"Yada, Yada, Yada"
Seinfeld ist Kult. Die von 1989-1998 produzierte Sitcom nach einer Idee von Larry David und Jerry Seinfeld hat die Zuschauer 9 Staffeln lang begeistert. In den USA war Seinfeld ein Straßenfeger und begeisterte mit tollen Quoten. Bei uns war der Erfolg leider etwas bescheidener. Mit Ausnahmen im Nachmittagsprogramm war es eher schwer die Serie verfolgen zu können.Umso toller ist es sich die DVD Boxen nach Hause holen zu können.Die sechste Season begeistert mit 23 kultigen Folgen die Jerry, George, Elaine und Kramer wieder dabei zeigen wie sie allerlei Blödsinn und Schwachsinn verzapfen und total nichtige Themen bis zum bitteren Ende diskutieren ohne auch nur annähernd einer Lösung nahe zu kommen.Egal ob Jerry ein Date mit einer Miss America Teilnehmerin hat, ein Salat George zur Weissglut bringt, jemand auf Jerrys Couch pinkelt, die Mutter von Georges Freundin ihn dabei erwischt wie er aus dem Müll ist, Kramer sich für einen Tante Emma Laden einsetzt, man sich mit der Frage beschäftigt ob eine Suppe als Essen zählt, Jerry ein tausch misslingt, Jerry an einem Lauf teilnimmt, Elaine versucht einen schwulen Freund zu drehen, Jerry Angst vor einem Poitier hat und Kramer dem Wetten verfällt auf eines kann man sich auch hier verlassen. Vielen zotigen Absurditäten mit vielen vielen Möglichkeiten zum Lachen.Zu den einzelnen Folgen ...DVD 1)Folge 1: Der AnstandswauwauFolge 2: Gemischter SalatFolge 3: Verrückt gewordenFolge 4: Die ChinesinFolge 5: Die neue CouchFolge 6: Die TurnerinDVD 2)Folge 7: Der GebissabdruckFolge 8: Die SuppeFolge 9: Die SekretärinFolge 10: Der ReinfallFolge 11: Der WettlaufFolge 12: Die Super-Bowl-TicketsDVD 3)Folge 13: Vortäuschung falscher TatsachenFolge 14: Highlight of 100 (teil 1 & 2)Folge 15: Die TarnungFolge 16: Das KüsschengebenFolge 17: Der PortierDVD 4)Folge 18: Er heißt JimmyFolge 19: Der KammerjägerFolge 20: Der Fusilli JerryFolge 21: Der DiplomatenclubFolge 22: Ein TeufelskerlFolge 23: Die ZweitbesetzungDas Bonusmaterial kann sich durchaus sehen lassen. Man bekommt, "Der Eier-Lauf: Schaffe einen Seinfeld Teil 1&2", "Entfallene Szenen", "Blick hinter die Kulissen", "Yada Yada Yada (Kommentare)", "Interessante Details", "Nicht, dass hier irgendetwas schiefgelaufen wäre (Outtakes)", "Sein-imitation der große Wettlauf" und "Meister seines Fachs (Exklusives Stand-Up Material)".Hier dürfte wirklich für jeden Geschmack etwas dabei sein. Besonders Interessant sind dabei natürlich die Blicke hinter die Kulissen. Es ist interessant dabei zu sehen wie eine Folge von Seinfeld entsteht.Die DVD Box ist auch nahezu perfekt. Man bekommt die Folgen plus die Extras auf vier DVDs. Die DVDs befinden sich dabei jeweils zu zweit zur hälfte übereinander gestapelt in einer Papp Box. Diese befindet sich nochmals in einem Schubert den man seitlich einfügen kann. Über diesen kommt ein nochmaliger Schubert denn man von unten einfügt. Ganz nach dem Motto doppelt hält besser. Über den Sinn kann man streiten wirken tut es toll.In einem Booklets hat man die Übersicht über alle Folgen sowie den Extras. Man bekommt zu jeder Folge eine kurze Inhaltsangabe sowie die Übersicht auf welcher DVD sich diese befindet.Es gibt so viele lieblose DVD Boxen das es einfach schön ist mal eine zu sehen bei der man sich etwas Gedacht hat und bei der man sich auch Mühe gegeben hat. Das ist hier der Fall und wer von Seinfeld ist muss sich diese kaufen und wer einfach mal eine gute Sitcom sehen will darf auch ruhig zugreifen.
