    Probably not the first to make this observation, but in the Bookman episode Jerry says he doesn't drink coffee and in the Dog episode they say Jerry doesn't drink caffeine. His most recent show is about drinking coffee. I wonder why they gave Jerry that character trait?

    I think he’s mentioned on Comedians in Cars that coffee drinking is something he adopted after the show and he quickly became pretty obsessed with it.

    RIP but man Howard's parents impressions are a reason I had to take a break a few months back.  Hopefully he lays off that for awhile now lol 

    Yeah, some of that stuff could be mildly entertaining, but there was definitely a stretch where he just went to that well too many times. That became a channel changing cue for me, after a while.

    *door slam - door open - Kramer fall - door slam again

    For all the great physical comedy Kramer’s character was legendary for, I think this 15 seconds might be his best work. I love the spin and fall to the ground at the end. So perfect.

  4. It’s an old tradition where the corp dudes squeeze their nut sack as hard as they can so they can endure a similar pain the football team is experiencing on the field in a tight game.
     

    Yeah. That’s it. That’s the story behind it.

    Holy cow, what was I thinking of?  Did Ebert give it a bad review, maybe?

    I must be confusing it with another big film I enjoyed but the critics hated.  

    Possibly Fight Club. Came out a few years later and was widely panned by critics for being an aggressive, boys club type of movie. Both had crazy reveals toward the end of the movie.

    I don't know how/why he came up with that bizarre accent and speech pattern but it was pretty cool.

    Supposedly, del Toro read the script and saw that he died first and had virtually zero impact on the plot, so he decided to have an outrageous accent so that he stood out in some way. In retrospect, he’s definitely right in that it’s the definition of a nothing part if played totally straight.
