@@laconic151 well how is it faster than saying "Hey Google call...." and I was aware of that but I never use it. I don't ppl everyday. And non of the ppl ik I feel are so important.... that I need them on my speed dial 😂
@@AvecPoesie Gilmore Girls really is fantastic! I realized that I hadn't seen enough of Lauren outside of that role to be able to tell the difference between the actress and the character. So I started watching interviews and other roles.
Seasons 8 and 9 were not written by Larry david, but other people. But I think Jerry co-wrote everything. Jerrys contribution is always underated in the show, he was the main glue
this is something lorelai would do - she would dial a number and rory would ask who she was going to call, and lorelai would say “luke” and rory would say “don’t you have him on speed dial?” and lorelai would say something like “he didn’t let me have a fifth cup of coffee this morning. this completely forbids all speed-dial rights, my friend”
If you take out the mother flirting towards Jerry part, fighting over having the same person in their speed dial is something I can imagine Lorelai Gilmore & her mom doing
Loved that episode! S8E20! And I really love Lauren Graham! But I swear I didn't recognise her in the beginning, it took me some seconds... :( Anyway it was a great episode, very funny and it got Lauren in it, if I got it right it was only 3 years before the start of the Gilmore Girls. 8o
She was only 30 here. I guess the show didn't mind that she was 13 years younger than him in real life. Then again, he also dated Christine Taylor on the show, and she's even younger.
I miss Seinfeld, have to rewatch it. When I watched the episode 2 years ago, it took me some minutes to recognize Lauren. "Oh my God, #1. Seinfeld, you magnificent bastard." :D
Actually, this very phrase was "borrowed" from the 1970 war film "Patton",starring George C. Scott. During the decisive battle of El Guettar,(Tunisia,1943) U. S. troops under Gen. G.Patton,were giving hell to the attacking german tanks(30 of them were destroyed) & infantry.Very excited Patton says: "Rommel, you magnificent bastard, I've read your book!" Seinfeld imitates even Scott's voice tone!
You just gotta love Jerry, he'll do anything to be number 1 in the relationship stakes. Who cares about love, romance and companionship, it's all about being number 1 on the speed dial! Hahaha!!
That takes me back to the MySpace days with everyone’s “Top 8” friends list. I would shift between 1-8 on my GF’s page depending on how the day went. Ah to be 16 again lol
Hey Jerry call poison control yourself you idiot haha. In hindsight I see why and how the last episode ended the way it did on how shallow and horrible Jerry, Elaine, Kramer and George were through out the show, even with these off the wall non plot points all for laughs the last 2 years haha.
nah...watching a 4 minute clip of a 30 minute episode which in itself was inspired by one of the greatest American movie classics ever made & thinking that gives you enough information to arrive at an intelligent & informed opinion? Actually, THAT is what is pretty stupid...
I looked it up she and Lauren Graham only had a 12 year age difference, so they probably were playing like the age difference wasn't huge if they wanted to do a background on the characters lol.
Why does the relationship between Valerie and the Step-Mom relate so closely to Lorelai and Emily in Lauren Graham’s actual TV show Gilmore Girls? Kind of weird.
I gotta hand it to the writers. How they came up with the idea for this skit is creative genius.
The stuff we all get upset about. First world country problems.
This seemed like an entire episode in 4 minutes, 45, seconds.
The story seemed complete. HILARIOUSLY complete! 😀
Then you ain't seen nothing yet 😂 it's the gist but there were still some missing pieces
No other show could make such complete and hilarious comedy off a phone speed dial.
It was the consummate show about nothing.
well cuz no body uses them now...
@@laconic151 well how is it faster than saying "Hey Google call...." and I was aware of that but I never use it. I don't ppl everyday. And non of the ppl ik I feel are so important.... that I need them on my speed dial 😂
@@laconic151 I just tried it, it doesn't work
@@laconic151 Dayum😆
So many great references to "The Graduate", from Valerie's mother getting into Jerry's car and ordering him to "drive!" to her leopard print blouse.
I was wondering if anybody else saw it too.
"Maybe a nicer girl called". Ha, ha too funny!!
0:30 - I was expecting George to say, "Seven? That's the BEST number!"
Good one! That was definitely a missed opportunity.
Lauren Graham is the definition of "aging like fine wine"
mmm...more like milk
@@gaguy1967 mmm -no.
You sound like a Honey boo boo man. Ha ha ha ha ha
@Gordon G Ah yes because men with the balding and the beer bellies age splendidly.
Rather have the step-mom.
@Gordon G Ah, true love, eh?
"wow, poison control?! That's even higher than number one!" lol
That was uncool for Jerry to comment.
lol such a sociopathic reaction
This is one of my favorite bits from this show
@@ethans9447 To be fair who's gonna seriously make time to bring it up when you're trying to contact emergency services
I don't know how official these rankings are.
I've been watching all of Lauren Graham's guest star spots on famous shows. This is one of her better guest spots.
Lauren Graham is such an incredible actress! Gilmore Girls turned me into a true fan. 💖
@@AvecPoesie Gilmore Girls really is fantastic! I realized that I hadn't seen enough of Lauren outside of that role to be able to tell the difference between the actress and the character. So I started watching interviews and other roles.
You know when somethings funny when still makes you laugh a generation after you've already seen it ...
When they cast for certain characters, they always seem to get the perfect actor or actress. They definitely got the right ones here.
Thanks for posting. I get enough of Lauren Graham, such a wonderful talent even in her early acting years!
Who else remembers putting their friends on speed dial with a corded phone before having a cellphone? lol
I love Lauren Graham.
Ranking Jerry on the speed dial...this does seem like something I could imagine Lorelai doing.
Kraig Industers fr tho
Kraig Industers yes lol and Luke being like "I better be #1"
"Cuz like, I'm number 1"
aahahhaha totally!!!!!!!! that would be amazing !!!!!!
And Emily still ragging on her for it
Noooo! You cut the part where Jerry nervously sips the wine and says a meek “mmm it’s good”
That part always cracked me up
Lauren was just too cute in this episode, weird but cute.
"What number did you dial?"
"7"
Brilliant
Now THAT'S a cougar!!!
How Larry and Jerry came up with these scripts is beyond me! Comedy gold!
Larry was no longer running the show for this episode
Seasons 8 and 9 were not written by Larry david, but other people. But I think Jerry co-wrote everything. Jerrys contribution is always underated in the show, he was the main glue
This was a parody of the Graduate.
Seinfeld is a classic show top 5 in American tv history.
Seinfeld's take on The Graduate - very well done.
"My step-mother is violently ill so I hit the button for "Poison Control" and I get you !"
"Whoo isss thisss"
+79unforgiver She committed suicide!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
see what you did there :)
Uncle Leo?
Uncle Leo?
The exact same thing I was thinking!
this is something lorelai would do - she would dial a number and rory would ask who she was going to call, and lorelai would say “luke” and rory would say “don’t you have him on speed dial?” and lorelai would say something like “he didn’t let me have a fifth cup of coffee this morning. this completely forbids all speed-dial rights, my friend”
Yesss great comment, hello fellow Gilmore girls fan. I love that show
Reminds me of the MySpace Top 8!
Lol my ex girlfriend would bitch and moan all the time because she wasn't number 1 and I was 4 on hers
LMFAO Yeah I remember that drama crap 👍
OUTFOXEM hahah yes
They used to sell tshirts with those sayings lol oh man! Good times!!
@@edweer670 lol classic
This is so absurd on so many levels 😂😂😂😂
She was divine in Bad Santa
this is brilliant comedy
My dad was the only one who used speed dials. Most of them were takeout places lol
This brings back memories of how phones used to work. I remember pushing the clicker down to switch lines. Haven't thought about that in a long time.
the idea of making a show over a speed dial ranking makes sienfeld one of a kind. that was gold.
Ok, was EVERYONE on Seinfeld at one point?
Yes
Casting Director was a genius. I'm sure Larry David and Jerry also had "input."
honestly: i think they acted for free in exchange for networking. because they ALL moved on to big paying shows soon after. Like all of them😳😳😳😳
@@lolabrini3758 Great point!!!
Basically yeah
If you take out the mother flirting towards Jerry part, fighting over having the same person in their speed dial is something I can imagine Lorelai Gilmore & her mom doing
Anyone else get the references to The Graduate sprinkled throughout this episode?
Just when I thought I had seen every Seinfeld episode... I must have forgotten this one! 😂
Loved that episode! S8E20! And I really love Lauren Graham! But I swear I didn't recognise her in the beginning, it took me some seconds... :( Anyway it was a great episode, very funny and it got Lauren in it, if I got it right it was only 3 years before the start of the Gilmore Girls. 8o
You can tell Seinfeld’s favorite film is The Graduate.
Lauren Graham should be a flavor at Baskin Robbins.
jerome lmao
+crashintonickdm jerome is jerry's full name
+Kevin White LOL....if your last name is Pish Posh too
@@kevinwhite791 it's still funny because of the contrast between his juvenile nature and her maturity.
Thank you for posting this video ! I reaylly wanted to see this episode.
I like to imagine that after the 'poison control' incident, Jerry just sat there smiling and holding the phone to his ear for like an hour.
lol @ "I feel all dried out inside."
This is one of my favorite bits from this show
ive wanted to watch this episode for like ever! so glad you posted it! i love it!
Thanks 4 posting!!!
Lauren Graham is great to watch work.
I love how this episode becomes like a bad soap opera with the family drama and the dramatic acting.
Lauren Graham is damn cute!
That's why she's on tv....
Truuuuuuuuuu
She was only 30 here. I guess the show didn't mind that she was 13 years younger than him in real life. Then again, he also dated Christine Taylor on the show, and she's even younger.
She was even cuter when she appeared on Newsradio (another NBC sitcom, but was way less popular)
She’s already taken
Awe man, Lauren Graham 😊
She was about 30 at the time 😄
@@sweetlife031 , and she is still hot 🔥
Laura Graham is absolutely STUNNING
Who else would nail the stepmom?
@Kurtis B Fishing Hammer
John Juhasz already did
Me, but I'm in her age bracket. 😏
She's much hotter than her daughter.
WTF is wrong w/Jerry ???
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the Show About Nothing.
Why am I watching it?
Brilliant writing. Somewhat dated due to technology changes. But still, this is why Seinfeld is the greatest.
There is still speed dial.
Lauren Graham, the only reason I put up with Gilmore Girls.
I miss Seinfeld, have to rewatch it. When I watched the episode 2 years ago, it took me some minutes to recognize Lauren. "Oh my God, #1. Seinfeld, you magnificent bastard." :D

I remember those days and kind of phones. Speed dial ranking was a real thing😂😉
1:57-2:00 lol Jerry's delivery is perfect
I remember seeing this episode as a kid and thinking "would this happen in real life?"
It would
RIP (2014) Louan Gideon (Mrs. Hamilton). Damn Cancer!
She was pretty
You just gotta love Jerry, he'll do anything to be number 1 in the relationship stakes.
Who cares about love, romance and companionship, it's all about being number 1 on the speed dial!
Hahaha!!
Louan Gideon, you are so loved & missed.
That hello at the end fucking kills me. Like he knows she hung up and is just doing it for the hell of it.
they made nothing into something lol
"It's pronounced thermometer". Cut out the best line.
Lauren Graham is such a sweet girl !
That takes me back to the MySpace days with everyone’s “Top 8” friends list.
I would shift between 1-8 on my GF’s page depending on how the day went.
Ah to be 16 again lol
That was the best one yet. Speed dial, I forgot about that.
The amount of movie references in Seinfeld is amazing
Lmao Seinfeld predicted MySpace.
this show is awesome
"Jerry... I can't get fired."
No wonder Lorelai took her time to introduce her boyfriends to Rory 😂
The Graduate reference couldn't be stronger.
And Mrs. Hamilton is succumbing to the anti-dessicants that Pennypacker (Kramer) dropped in the salsa at Putumayo (the Peruvian boutique)!
You know, Jerome.
"Jerome"
That last "Hello" though! Hahaha 😂🤣
Hey Jerry call poison control yourself you idiot haha. In hindsight I see why and how the last episode ended the way it did on how shallow and horrible Jerry, Elaine, Kramer and George were through out the show, even with these off the wall non plot points all for laughs the last 2 years haha.
This is a take-off/parody/send up of one of the greatest movies of all time (and one of Jerry Seinfeld's personal favorites): THE GRADUATE.
Really!? I thought it was pretty stupid.
nah...watching a 4 minute clip of a 30 minute episode which in itself was inspired by one of the greatest American movie classics ever made & thinking that gives you enough information to arrive at an intelligent & informed opinion? Actually, THAT is what is pretty stupid...
Nice catch!
Because they're Jewish that's why he likes the Graduate.
This is comedy gold!!!🥇🥇
Suddenly Jerry keeps checking his messages every 2 minutes...
Jerome Seinfeld: A magnificent bastard
The alluring actress who played "Mrs. Hamilton", Louan Gideon, died a few years ago.
Hot step mother
That scene is reminiscent of an uncannily similar scene derived from 'The Graduate'
She was beautiful, she just passed away 4 years ago
Oh yea definitely hot
She died but she did have nice structure
I looked it up she and Lauren Graham only had a 12 year age difference, so they probably were playing like the age difference wasn't huge if they wanted to do a background on the characters lol.
Used to do that ranking in myspace. I miss those days.. it was fun
The inspiration for MySpace
The whole plot of this Seinfeld episode is a reference to The Graduate: I don't think too many people noticed this.
they're all #1 on my speed dial . . .
The hierarchy and ranking of the speed dial, shows just how important you really are in a persons life. Confucius...
Truth is stranger than a Seinfeld episode. We are all speed dialed ranked.
Try and remember a phone number besides your own.
Great flash/hold scene later perfected in "The Mean Girls"
Back in the stone age when there were push button home phones children 😱 LOL
I still have push button home phone. Works fine
@@stagna1959 I’m more paleo-phonic than you: I got a DIAL phone. 😂
It’s weird to see her without Rory, and Rory should be on the top of her list to call (if you watch Gilmore girls you’ll get that 😂)
Seinfeld you magnificent bastard 😂😂😂
Mongolian BBQ😂😂😂
Louan Gideon the actress playing Mrs.Hamilton lives in my hometown, she's a real estate agent now.
Is she still hot?
She died 3 1/2 years ago...
96bobbylou , yes but is she still hot?
Why does the relationship between Valerie and the Step-Mom relate so closely to Lorelai and Emily in Lauren Graham’s actual TV show Gilmore Girls? Kind of weird.
Step mom and Valarie combo ! Giddy up !
You call tell this is a spoof of the “soaps”. Drama!! Well done!
“Maybe a…. nicer girl called.”
TFW you’d cheat on someone in a heartbeat. 🤣
I see where Tom got the idea for MySpace
