Seldom seen Seinfeld episodes.

I usually try catch reruns of Seinfeld episodes every day and I seem to remember some episodes seem to not get played as much as others. One in particular I remember had scenes at a hospital where George had a great parking space near the front of the hospital. Later in the episode I think that a jumper lands on his car.

Am I imagining this, or are some episodes not shown with as much frequency as others? How exactly is the rerun rotation figured?

Is that the pig-man episode?

I rarely see this one as well.

If the Pigman had a car, he'd give you a ride!

I've seen it a million times myself.

I thought they aired them in order chronologically. But it does seem like some episodes air more than others.

That is the Pigman episode. I've seen it fairly regularly.

The one you WON'T see anymore is the one where Susan gets poisoned by the glue on the envelopes for her and George's wedding invitations... I saw this in the news recently - something about Anthrax etc....

They never show the one where Kramer accidently burns the Puerto Rican flag.

I've always wanted to see the one where George has a laser pointer on his head, but they never show it.

I keep missing the episode where the Mandelbaum family end up in the hospital because they injure their backs pick trying to pick up a television.

They showed that one in Houston about three days ago.

The one that I've only seen once (when it originally aired) is the pilot with no Elaine.

It seems to me they keep showing the same twenty over and over and over and over. They skip large large portions, and never show any of the early episodes.

I only tune in once in a while.. but it always seems to be the same ones Maybe I just have bad luck.

I saw that one when the show first went into syndication, so they did re-air it at least once.

I think they pulled the "Puerto Rico" one, though.

I hope they recant that decision and re-air the Puerto Rican flag day episode.. That was one of the funniest episodes with Jerry, Kramer, and George all taking alternate personas..

Ah yes, I remember now. That's the same episode as the Puerto Rican day parade.

"That's gotta hurt!" - One of the funniest Seinfeld lines ever.

I believe the correct spelling is Dolores , sorry I couldn't let it go. I never did get the part of the female body Dolores is supposed to rhyme with. Anyone?

That was a Lloyd Braun episode. There were a few great Lloyd Braun episodes. The one where he was selling computers in Frank Costanza's garage was another classic.

SERENITY NOW!
