Seinfeld was genius for not turning Jerry and Elaine into a regular sitcom will or won't they couple. They have a much more refreshing dynamic and chemistry
Totally! They basically just have a semi-flirty friendship, and even though they hookup a couple times during the show it never gets into romantic drama
Jerry and Elaine had good chemistry, they might not have gotten back together, but it shows how much of a special couple they were. That’s all I can say.
The show wisely avoided the cliché sitcom ending, because it’s always been about avoiding clichés (“no hugging, no learning”). Which is fine because we don’t need a huge “I got off the plane” moment for Jerry and Elaine. We know well enough that they belong together.
We all know they’re soulmates. They didn’t even have to get together in the finale for us to know that. We know it’ll happen for them someday, on a day we won’t see.
Having had this kinda relationship with an ex, it's hilarious to watch them talk themselves into it, like there's an invisible judgmental third party they're trying to convince it's not a bad idea. And how they keep flailing their arms.
I always thought that if Seinfeld ever came back it would mean Jerry and Elain would have to be married by then. Krammer would live next door along with George in his parent's home down the street.
Damn, I really wish they didn't have a rule against providing an emotional ride cause they were really good at creating scenes that evoke emotions in Seinfeld in the rare times they made an attempt. I'm not one to easily get sentimental over a tv show but that scene in The Deal and the conversation at end of that two part episode where Kramer takes a trip to LA due to a quarrel he had with Jerry over the keys genuinely made me feel something. They were both very understated, a lot was left unsaid, and you basically had to probe inside the mind of the characters in order to understand them. It was good stuff.
That’s what made it so effective, imo. A lot of times sitcom writers would try to hamfist these emotional story arcs and it just felt manipulative. In Seinfeld, it felt more organic and realistic because it felt like it was just *happening* despite the characters.
in the mini-Seinfeld reunion inside of Curb Your Enthusiasm, Jerry is the father of Elaine’s daughter. I think they say its through artificial insemination but it still shows they kinda have a thing for each other.
I was married for 20 years yet didn't have nearly the relationship these 2 did in the long run. Maybe I should've said, "well, that's just grrreat!" when she told me she was leaving
Why do people get married if they're just gonna leave?!?? It's a waste of time, money, love, and company. Luckily for you, she didn't cheat. People proudly do that these days
I used to binge watch How I Met Your Mother when it was on Netflix. I think that show took a lot of queues from Seinfeld because the back and forth relationship between Ted and Robin looked pretty similar to the back and forth relationship between Jerry and Elaine.
I honestly really like the idea of them together but not super monogamously, since that doesn’t seem to work for them. I could see them being just long time romantic friends lol. The way they squabble like schoolyard children is so entertaining 8:26
I agree because the show was “no hugging, no learning” and thus it cleverly avoided more cliché storylines. But we don’t need explicit confirmation that Elaine and Jerry belong together; that fact is obvious enough.
They probably did love each other but more of a brother and sister type of love. I don't think they were in love. They tried a couple times but it never worked out.
They were friends, not a couple.. that’s why the show was so successful. Friends and The Office introduced romance in their writing, completely killed the comedic elements of the shows.
Easily one of the best episodes of the early seasons(The Deal). They had some real duds but this one showed what the show working at 100% could do.(Kramer wasn't even that big of a part yet)
In normal times they would have been married, and stayed married, and had the relationship they do on the show (mature love). But they never did, so they're in some weird limbo state where they still love each other, so they kind of have an ersatz marriage/family but they also can't go back and just get "together."
I have a female best friend and before I met my fiancée we had a Jerry and Elaine relationship which I don’t tell the woman I’m marrying about. Think about it you wouldn’t either
In high school law class we got to go to court for the day. My friend *had a Luigi pez dispenser , after a while he got a little annoying with it but then a lawyer walked in and he looked like Luigi he was even wearing a forest green suit. He got so excited and held it up in the air 😂😂 we got in so much trouble the bailiff almost kicked us out.
That's seriously the last thing any of them want. You got the Seinfeld reunion episodes of Curb Your Enthusiasm instead. That's an amazing way to reboot Seinfeld.
A reboot would ruin the legacy. The great thing about Seinfeld was there was no character growth, but it's silly to expect that 25 yrs later. They're certainly not going to be the same people, so what's tbe point?

Totally agree
The will they or won’t they was invented by cheers and then a bunch of sitcoms followed suit ever since.

Because they never were
You literally just described what they are doing.
“ it’s almost stupid if we didn’t “. Haha. Love them

Yup.

all it means is that that was a good script given to good actors. in real life MISSION IMPOSSIBLE

They were certainly mates in both senses. If they had souls then they may have been soulmates
@@nocomment2468 fair enough. 😂
No soul soulmates or that leaves us with just mates.
Love them together. They are perfect for each other even though they wouldn't admit to each other. Kramer was right
I love the quick back-and-forth dialogue Jerry has with his parents. So funny
The pez dispenser scene = true love
The way Jerry says marry me is so genuine

JLD is an insanely gifted comedic actress. Her technique is jaw-dropping.
Elaine’s technique is why Jerry keeps going for it
@@avb19d6 😂
This show just cannot be improved. Brilliant is an understatement!
You missed the clip from The Abstinence where Elaine hasn't seen the garbage man in a while so she asks Jerry if he's got eleven minutes
11 minutes for what? Which season and episode?
@@jamesndula8717 Season 8
@@jamesndula8717 Watch the episode - I won't spoil the surprise 😉
That was a funny episode.
Well, she was pretty damn upset when Jerry's sensitive side vanished and he wasn't into marrying her anymore...
I love that Jerry isn’t pushy, just logical and actually charming. He sets rules, looks for consent and shares mature feelings.
Ok Dr Phil

I always wanted Jerry and Elaine to get back together at the end of the show. They had such wonderful chemistry.
I did too, but now I'm glad the show ended before this could happen.
This wasn't that kind of show
you missed the point of the show
That would have ruined the whole purpose of Seinfeld. It is supposed to be pure comedy.
@@sreeharivenat8002
Pure comedy would have character development and excess sentiment.
This is more dry humor.

Yeah it implied later on in the show, Jerry and Elaine will get together especially since they have a daughter
I was married for 20 years yet didn't have nearly the relationship these 2 did in the long run. Maybe I should've said, "well, that's just grrreat!" when she told me she was leaving
Or better yet, "oh... Banana!" 😆
Come to think of it, just about any line in here makes for a great response to someone leaving you!! 🤣

I agree with you.
It is possible for a while in my experience, but longterm? No. Gets too complicated.

This is genius. Pure genius.
All right. Lets go. I give you half an hour. Epic one🤣
If it’s not a love like this I don’t want it.
So many funny episodes where to start at Eline Jerry Kramer and Georgia are funny to together 😅😅😅
They probably did love each other but more of a brother and sister type of love. I don't think they were in love. They tried a couple times but it never worked out.

This is gold.
She wasn’t going to say she loved UUUUnited airlines because no one could possibly love United more than Delta
I laugh when people say “George was the real star” Jerry was always #1 on Seinfeld, much love to brilliant characters of this show.
The way Elaine said "I know that look" made my heart skip a bit. Luckily my wife has the same look.
You mean like Jerry's?
The Pez dispenser is hilarious....
I have no idea why these kids couldn't work things out
Of course they were in love.
im def with the sleep part
The anti-couple! 😄

Didn’t Jerry and Elaine use to be in a relationship but then broke up and just became good friends
It seems like they were on and off again.

I like Elaine a lot though.
Jerry & Elaine are like dogs that will sniff and then jump on any legs that enter the room.

What happened to their relationship? I don’t know why they decided to become friends; was that ever explained in the show?
I have a female best friend and before I met my fiancée we had a Jerry and Elaine relationship which I don’t tell the woman I’m marrying about. Think about it you wouldn’t either
