Not that I would say any of those were horrible (maybe the thread should be
Top Ten least favorite Episodes), but I wouldn't quarrel with any of your
choices except for "The Nose Job". Whenever I hear Kramer blurt out, "You
just need a nose job", I fall over laughing.

Sounds good. Here's my list.

1. The Bookstore
2. The Bottle Deposit
3. The Apology
4. The Busboy
5. The Stock Tip
6. The Masseuse
7. The Couch
8. The Finale
9. The Junk Mail
10. The Frogger

10 1/2. The Stranded- ranks as half a bad episode. The party scenes were
great. Everything else was terrible.

I can only think of two really bad shows:

#1 the Finale
#2 The Car Dealership

A lot of Seinfeld shows that I didn't care for right off tend to grow on
me re-watching them. I can see, however, that some on the list weren't
the best but c'mon...not the one with Crazy Joe Davola! I crack up
everytime I see Kramer's reponse to Joe asking him if he's still afraid
of clowns. That expression is priceless!

Yes, Seinfeld has had some weak moments, but you have to admit even the worst
Seinfeld is better then any other so called "situation comedy" on television.
I would watch "The Dealership" any day over the crap they currently show on
NBC(or any other network).

Not me! That one and the very first show just hurt too much to watch. But the
rest of them, even the ones that aren't as great as the rest, are certainly
preferable to anything else out there.

I tried to watch Lateline last night. It has been touted highly and I like Al
Franken. I had to turn it off in mid program. The laugh track sounded like a
moron's convention. Even a bunch of drunks wouldn't have laughed at this
pathetic stuff where they stuck in laughs.

It might have been watchable without the laugh track but with it, it was an
insult to most anoyone's intelligence. The only semi good show I have been
able to find is Drew Carey.

Well, like others have responded, not sure if these are the WORST episodes.
You certainly are entitled to think so of them.
Personally, I liked The Bris ("pigman" storyline [didn't care much for the
Bris storyline though except for George's feinting... :) ]) and well I
could probably find something I liked in all of the episodes you mentioned.
As I'm sure you could too since you seem to be a die-hard Seinfeld fan like
the rest of us.
I assume you are rating these base on overall "show" quality, and in that
case I might agree with all of the choices you made. Very subjective topic
though, wouldn't you agree?

Not crazy. Jerry just taught me to have more discriminating tastes in comedy
shows and those two you mention don't cut it for me.

I have to admit, I was suprised to see these two listed as well.
They wouldn't make my all- time top 10, but they're darn funny episodes.

Both shows had their moments, but on the whole, they were pretty weak,
especially in comparison to Seinfeld usually does.
