"My name is George, I am unemployed and live at home with my parents" The greatest pickup line of all time.
i tried it once, got laughed at
it is now because of seinfeld, in the real world they look for a cop.
curt chrisensen. you'd be less of a threat with a library card than a badge.
It'd never work, they want the $$$
Curt Christensen as long as you don’t have any overdue books. Don’t want Bookman coming after you
Jason Alexander was the only one of the main four characters never awarded an Emmy. Ironically, he was probably the most talented actor among the four.
One of the best roles I've ever seen him in was the 1981 slasher horror movie the Burning. He has a full head of hair and the movie is pretty cheesey but got good centerpiece kills.
Bill Oakley ..... That's a travesty !!!
He's a bit smarmy and over acty like .... can't remember her name but we all hate her..
Not probably. He was.
The nominators were biased against Jason Alexander in this case because they didn't find George as likable as the other characters and they thought of George as playing "himself." But they failed to recognize that playing such a character and making him funny is actually more demanding than the roles of the others and Alexander was almost always funny and rarely too pathetic in his "loser" persona.
"If every instinct that you have is wrong, then the opposite must be right" is one of the greatest Seinfeld quotes 😂😂
@@alfa-psi Your mother was a mudder
It's a philosophy I can embrace
i've tried this line and it works. but it's awkward later when they find out my name isn't George.
:-D Ha,ha, a good one!
Well-played, indeed.
Why not just use the line with your real name?
🤣🤣🤣
@@emmaray6215 because he has been burned and is now in Miami trying to find the people who did this to him.
George dates so many good looking women.
MetalmaT that plain jane who died from licking envelopes was no catch.
+Alex 10,000 That's why the producers thought she was "wife material"
Victoria had to be in the top 3.
Susan was a babe.
Remember Christine Miller. He dated her. Then she went on to the Drew Carey Show. I don't remember her character name.
I've tried doing "the opposite" many times. It's hard to stick to, but it's fun while it lasts.
So what were the results? :)
I was at a dance club in the 80's & this real hotie blonde was dancing around next to the rail of a hall way. I was gonna ask her to dance. Which is my normal. I was a athletic skinny balding guy in his early 20's. She saw me walking her way & I was probably 15 feet from her & she locked on to my eyes & started shaking her head no!!! I thought fast & kept walking by her into the mens bathroom. When I came out she smirked at me & said you were gonna ask me to dance (then a little laugh came out) I said what are you talking about I had to use the bathroom hence that is why I am just walking out of the bathroom. Why would I want to ask you to dance. I started to walk off. She ran in front of me & said you want to dance with me. At this point I figured she was testing me. So I said nah I have a beer waiting for me & walked to where my beer was. Well after a few minutes she came over & said how dare I. I said dare I what? Can you just leave me alone. Well a slow song came on & she grabbed my hand & pulled me out to the dance floor wrapping her arms around me & pressing two glorious globes into my chest. I banged her for about a year until she moved across the country.
BBBYpsi. Somehow, I doubt that story
Women are weird that way so it is more than likely true
BBBYpsi Wow that's some hard banging to move her that far! 😜
One of many reasons why George is one of the greatest sitcom characters of all time.
Yes, and still J.A. never got an Emmy.
They should cancel the whole award.
#Emmysohairy...
leafyutube amen. I heard Jason Alexander is in a wheelchair. Yeah, he broke his back carrying Seinfeld for years.
leafyutube Larry.. George is based on Larry.
absolutely agree
I admire George's willingness to change.
It's the Summer of George!
But what did have to lose?
@@04dram04 that doesn't make sense
This was a monumental moment in the show, the paradigm shift if you could call it that, the first time George didn’t lie to a woman, George does the opposite of everything he would normally do, it’s like he opened up the portal to an alternate universe.
Victoria gets George his job with the NY Yankees. I love when George tells the "opposite" to Steinbrenner (voiced by Larry David). "Hire this man!"
BigBadBrad My favorite scene.
Holy shite... thank you for blessing this fact upon me
And sadly, Victoria, appears in a couple of other scenes and is never seen again.
@@iknowyou393 because she probably fucking killed herself
George Steinbrenner... What a character. Larry David is a freaking genius
Love how he chewed Steinbrenner out and his reaction of "HIRE THIS MAN!" Makes me laugh every time
That’s my favorite moment in the series.
"My name is George... I'm unemployed and I live with my parents."
"I'm Victoria. Hi" ^_^ lol
Hilarious
And it led to a job with Yankees.
John Van Hof ... Deedee Pfeiffer. Michelle's cuter sister.
@@JW...-oj5iw yeah I thought that was her. Does a great job also as a fast food waitress in Falling Down
I have used this to pick up chicks it's funny
Because of this George was hired with the Yankees. They quickly became a dynasty.
Yankee fans should eat chicken salad for every meal.
"Yankee fans should eat chicken salad for every meal" --> *and a cup of TEA, heheh!*
I do.... LOL
His slow head turn towards his friends at the end....pinnacle of genius.
Jack Benny (sp?) callback.
It’s almost like he found the most powerful cheat code ever.
"Elaine, bald men, with no jobs, and no money, who live with their parents, don't approach strange women"
@ColoredSpaces
Jason Robinhood since when?
But they eat out everyday? Lol
Haha
It worked!!! Love it.
@@Jgm-gm9wi It looks umemployment benefits are quite good in US . In Estonia it is 189 euros in month ( ca 200 dollars ). Person can hardly pay for electricity and heating and eat the cheapest home cooked meals for that money . But usually people find occasional unofficial work and pay ,about which unemplyoment office does not know . Eating out in diner ( or pub) is quite expensive .Nice stake with potatos + dessert + coffee cost al least 12 euros, if you want a beer too it could be 20 euros . But we dont have to pay enormous tips like in US, usually we tip 10 % of the bill . Some customers dont tip even that and noone is offended .
Good for the tuna
A quote that Andy could use as well
The funny thing is, George being upfront about being unemployed and living with his parents is not a bad idea. Owning who you are and being honest makes you a lot more attractive.
That amount of courage is enticing. It can show such confidence a woman had to see more. Obviously he will need to find work, but with that much blunt honesty and lack of fear… go.
The turn from George at the end is comedy gold. He just looks away like “Wtf this shit actually works? The hell is going on?” And then the transition from that just cracks me up every time
He just tested, with positive results, an amazing idea.
A legendary scene in a legendary episode on the best show ever.This scene also has the smartest lines ever written for any show.
Agreed...they caught lightening in a bottle for sure...
Glen Benton 9
TheJimmy It helped me so much to learn how to speak up. I first saw it when I was 10 and it first aired on TV. It helped me accept myself and speak my truth instead of hiding it away. The first episode I had seen was the shrinkage one but this one made me a fan till the end.
Totally agree!
This and Frasier are my favorites, they're not just for pure laughs, they're witty and insightful funny
30 years later and still a fantastic show
30 years?! Damn man. Damn.
This show is timeless.
@@scathexz Absolutely
it's because he was blunt and straight to the point. he didn't try to hide the fact he has faults. as a woman i would be intrigued by this honesty, i want know more. go on
You officially have won the Internet with your comment.
Victoria was played by Dedee Pfeiffer, Michelle's sister.
i knew i had seen that family resemblance somewhere.
Nice.
I thought she looked familiar, I mainly remember her from playboy
she played in the legendary fastfood scene in falling down.
Huh !
Luckily for George she was also doing the opposite thing.
Hahaha, you said it.
Well the female equivalent would be that she was really 50 years old, overweight and toothless, just pretending to be a smokin hot blonde.
😂
@ And that's what she went with.
Yeah, normally he's not her type, but she overheard that entire conversation and decided to play along.
"If every instinct you have is wrong then the opposite would have to be right" 🖤
My favorite show EVER!! This show helps me a lot with what I’ve been dealing with all depression and anxiety 👍
Omar Cano Leija *Potrillo* Hang in there bud! We’re all in this together
George Costanza : one of the greatest comic characters ever created. Can’t imagine anyone but Jason Alexander in that role. Iconic.
well considering the character is based on Larry David...
@@awakeinsdand you can watch how Larry Davis is acting as George in Curb your enthusiasm
George Constanza is probably one of the best characters ever created.
This is comedy on expert level
Best. Seinfeld. Episode. EVER. The genius here is next-level shit.
There were some good ones.
The Hand Model/low talker
The Roomate switch
The Second spitter/Keith Hernandez
@@jamesanthony5681 The Roomate switch
was 4D chess level shit
@@jamesanthony5681 the episodes' titles as follows:
The Puffy Shirt
The Switch
The Boyfriend
@@saulgoodman5494 Thanks.
Is there a man on the planet that doesn't want to meet a Victoria at least one time in his life?
women are not loveable, they're leaveable. if you go up and do consistently the same to 100 women in a row, one or two will actually go for it
There’s Victoria and then there’s Vicky. BIG difference!
@@calviincalifornia4048 yes and then if you're the kind of guy that asks out 100 women in a row you complete your date by leaving their ravaged corpse in a dumpster
@@calviincalifornia4048 Wow, you seem like someone women are missing out on.
@@calviincalifornia4048 that happens quite often to men, and probably more often to women, who get jaded and just give up. I remember watching an advice show, lady was telling others you don't find a good husband, you make a good husband. The same could be said of a lot of woman, if they're willing and motivated.
This may be the best episode in all of Seinfeld. Certainly the most philosophical!
The kenny rogers episode is up there too!
This episode is even better than The Contest.
The Outing is the best. They make of political correctness
It is my favorite episode.
My favorite for sure.
There used to be a little coffee shop near downtown that served "the Victoria."
It was chicken salad on rye with potato salad and hot tea.
That's gold!!! Do they sell roundtine? ;)
Cuomo and Deblasio probably put them out of business.
@@chewy98ta28 Or maybe, ya know, the pandemic?
@@DaveOJ pandemics dont take away ppls freedom. tyrants do, like trump and cuomo
A restaurant near me actually had a nicely framed print of George's "Timeless Art of Seduction" photo hanging in the Ladies room!
You know it's funny when the extras can't hold their laughter
Who couldn't hold their laughter ? Who are you referring to ?
That’s just the laugh track
Kevin So, a live audience was present during the scenes that consisted of the actors being outside?
@@mohiabro Checkout the waitress with the boy cut after Victoria says hi. She couldn't stay in character and was laughing throughout the entire exchange.
@@themagnoliaproject864 maybe she was in character...wouldn't you laugh if you were a waitress and overheard that bit?
If every instinct you've ever had is wrong then the opposite would have to be right. lol
That look of 'How the hell can this line work with ANY woman?'
Twilight Zone moment...
Gerty
It's because she sees they have similar taste in food by ordering the same lunch, and then intrigued by his confidence...
The Power of Confidence...
Because it’s a fictional show. It’s a common thing in many shows where the plain or ugly guy can somehow date or marry beautiful women.
The reason usually being 1) eye candy 2) if you are gonna hire an actress why not a pretty one?
@@Rushinator1 yeah, like she's out of my league
It's fantasy, and it sells
Rushinator1 you ever watch girls? Or any Amy Schumer movie? It’s the same thing. I think it’s actors want to secretly get to be with a hot person and not get called a creep or shallow!
Man, this show never gets old.
Sweet Jesus, Dedee Pfeiffer was incredibly hot back in the day.
Indeed
"I'm unemployed and live with my parents"
Before 2020: funny and red flag
After 2020: Relatable to millions of both men and women after COVID
@Noah Levine Dummy.
"My name is George. I'm unemployed and I live with my parents." BIG laugh. Comedy Gold.
"I'm Victoria. Hi!" BIGGER laugh. Out of the park.
George my hero. I can so relate to him in certain situations.
Fun Fact: that actress is Deedee Pfeiffer, sister of Catwoman herself, Michelle Pfeiffer.
Victoria is so beautiful. George had nothing to lose & he won! Just the opposite for most guys. Lol
*We should come up with an "Opposite Day" every year, to do everything we never do*
th-cam.com/video/ZcRYnmYJNHc/w-d-xo.html
That's a fantastic idea!
So I will have sex that day. So much sex.
The look that Jason Alexander gives at the end is priceless, where you can almost read his thoughts: "What else might go right by doing the opposite of my inclinations?"
This episode change the show so much...got George hired with the Yankees and will never think of Steinbrener the same way!
That's Dedee Pfeiffer, Michelle's sister.She was in the movie Falling Down.
Whammy Burger
Ahhh Falling Down. What a classic
Another commenter already mentioned this.
@@not-so-smartaleck8987
So it got mentioned again. So what.
Dave G I can see why Michelle is the famous one because that DeeDee is looking very basic
This is Jason Alexander's best episode of the series IMO. Its also my favorite episode about George.
what about the summer of george?
@@arjunrk4573 that was good episode too. However, the Opposite is my favorite cuz things worked his way 4 the first time.
@@ghanasoul there's a video on TH-cam where Larry David tries to play george on set and Jason is teaching him how to do it.
Jerry's been trolling George since they were teenagers and this is the only time it's paid off
This is my life guide now
That's how he landed the Yankee job.
So how did it go with gorgeous Victoria?
+Anur I. The same as it goes for George with all women (except Susan)--nowhere.
STEINBRENNER: Nice to meet you!
GEORGE: Well, I wish I could say the same...
😂
@@not-so-smartaleck8987 How did it end, or do they mention this at all?
The look that George gives when she responds to his pickup line is just priceless - he has found an unknown treasure and the sacred knowledge of all times! Thank you, Jason Alexander, for another extraordinary performance!
This ranks right up there with Saul Goodman getting lucky with a woman because he told her he was Kevin Costner.
Too bad we didn't see George date Victoria for a while. She is one of the characters with the biggest unexplained absence from any other episode.
That line works guys. No joke. I at one time was unemployed and lived with my parents an told a woman that. Yep went out with her.
@@Erixon55 to be fair, your dates weren't on her level
It was probably disarming. Doesn't work all the time though. I did see another guy at a bar once who tried a similar line and the girl turned around and started talking to the guy next to him without even missing a beat.
Not necessarily the 'opposite', but I've followed a similar program and it's making a massive difference.
I need to do the opposite of staying up all night heating junk food during the day and generally being unproductive with my time.
I guess “lil George” got some action! O wait opposite, “BIG GEORGE “!
That's Sheila. She used to work at Whammy Burgers. She served Michael Douglas once. :D
"Falling Down". I love that movie.
Oh yeah good job that's where I've seen her
JabberCT She's a hot MILF now!
Thank God for that.
That’s Dedee Pfeiffer, Michelle’s younger sister.
This is surprisingly true.
"My name is George, I am unemployed and live at home with my parents"
2019: STRANGER DANGER!
Ah, the 90's. Back when a woman casually glanced at you in public, and that was your window to go over and talk to her.
:-) very true!
The mans laugh at the end is so priceless. And all the women in the scene smiling so goofily. Love it.
You are sooooo right. It just adds another level of funny!
Yep one of the few times the laugh track worked well
I love Seinfeld.
i just love the bewildered look on George's face when it actually got a response from her lol
He found a major cheat code.
"Holy crap, it's working. Quick, keep going!"
Yup, that sounds just about right.
that blonde is gorgeous!!!
Jerry purposely sent him off in hopes he'd make a fool of himself. Worst friend ever.
maccajoe.... If you think they're horrible people, you must have a very bleak outlook on life.
Or
Are you a puritan?
ALSO,
That's not why they are arrested. They're arrested because the show was cancelled and no one gave a fuck anymore, so they just decided to end it in the fuckin retarded ass way.
Traye76 Lol, have you ever had friends? Part of the fun is goading them into embarrassing, unusual situations and watching what happens.
Its just the opposite, he's given George confidence by basically telling him based on current situation his has nothing to lose.
I agree with David
Without Jerry it was only an idea, he needed a friend who guided him through his idea :)
Traye76 exactly. They were horrible people. Think of the last episode lol
It's funny how subtle the show can be - Elaine is all dolled up in this clip, but ends up looking like George by the end, and Jerry is wearing virtually the same thing (even Steven)
With the possible exception of the Magic Loogie speech delivered by Jerry, this was by far the best bit in the entire Seinfeld series. It was also the best pick-up line of all time.
Dedee Pfeiffer is gorgeous
Chairman Meow any relation to michelle?
The Swinging Door - yes, Michelle’s younger sister and extremely sweet. Met her on two occasions while I was a waiter, couldn’t be nicer.
alfa-psi when asking the question, I don't think i thought "wow I'm really curious, im just burning inside to know if they're related, man i really really need to know this"
gdoumerc1984 Wow thats pretty cool
Yeah. Her sister is reasonably not unattractive as well.
Absolute class. Great upload, thanks.
That look on his face after she says" I'm Victoria, Hi" is priceless.
Best show EVER
btw...the girl at the counter is Dedee Pfeiffer - Michelle's younger sister.
Prettier sister.
@@jetuberare you doing the opposite thing too😂?
@@Ricardo-gd8wc Opposite thing? I don't know what that is. But based on this clip, I do think that the younger sister is prettier.
*George and Cosmo were the true stars of this show, hands down.*
Dee Dee Phiffer ( Victoria )is absolutely gorgeous SHE has that Lauren Bacall look .
She's better looking than her sister Michelle Phiffer
Yes George! Go for it, mate! Who knows? It might work. Worked for me...
my name is George, I'm unemployed and I live with my parents. The delivery. I absolutely love George Costanza
George: “Jerry, what the fuck is going on here???”
Shit wish it was that easy.
It is when you do the exactly the opposite!
It's so weird. When you don't try, that's when women come of from the woodworks, the moment you put effort, they magically disappear...what gives?
it is
“I think...I think we may be onto something here.” 02:14
Favorite episode. Especially getting hired for the Yankees: “Hire this man!”
Elaine being supportive is so adorable..
I’d watch an entire movie of Jason Alexander doing this. It probably be a bit like ‘Liar Liar’ and ‘Yes Man’ but with the Seinfeld treatment I would still be hilarious
good for the tuna
This is my favourite episode of Seinfeld.
She is a keeper... This is the woman he should ended up getting married to...
I also like the clip where he tells off Steinbrenner. "Hire this man!"
Love how Jerry always plays along. This opposite thing is actually his idea lol.
TH-cam Recommendations:
2014: Nah
2015: Nope
2016: Uh-uh
2017: Not Yet
2018: No Way
2019: Hey, you want to watch this Seinfeld video.
This might be the best episode of the whole damn series. And that's saying a lot because this show was bloody magnificent.
Tied with the marine biologist
pure fucking genius
This is hands down the best Seinfeld episode ever. So many twists and turns, and opposites. George actually gets a few victories. Win one for us "commoners".
He got a Victoria in this scene
Remember, the real world is opposite of Seinfeld world.
George's slow head turn to Jerry and elaine kills.
Elaine’s Hair😫😫
Reminds me of my friend back in high school. He was kinda dorky like me but always had a girlfriend. When I asked his secret, he said “I just keep asking a different one out everyday until one said yes”
Dangle a worm in the water long enough something will bite the it.
I mean, he's right though. Free will is an illusion. Your genetics or limbic system call all the shots. You just think you're having original thoughts, desires, and actions. It's pretty spooky.
"Good for the tuna." great episode,great scene
I clicked on the video because in the thumbnail the woman looked like Natasha Henstridge.
I can relate to George on so many levels lol
Same
