Trouble Man

I've got a secret to confess. I am a closet fan of the show Seinfeld. At first, I found the show repulsive and spurious. I gave it a chance one day (I was bored), and I began to like it. I confess my secret to some in my camp, and come to find out, they love the show, too!! I think I'm different, because I think the man that makes the show for me is this man:




That's right. George Louis Costanza. There's a funny quirkiness about his character that I find hilarious. The bandwagon folk would have you to believe that it's all about Kramer, but his repetitive antics get a old to me quickly. While Kramer is accidentally making it work time after time, George can't seem to catch a break. He's got Jerry Stiller and Estelle Harris for parents, a rather neurotic inner circle, a fiance' he couldn't stand, an unstable employment history, and an unsettling feeling of where his life ended up.

Throw these ingredients into a pot and stir. Half an hour later, you find yourself on the floor. It's just a shame that by the time I got around to appreciating the show, it was already over (the finale SUCKED!). However, I have about 100 episodes saved to my computer, which I watch faithfully (I need to hook the cable up!). Then, I'd watch a rousing round of Breakfast at Tiffany's, lol. I still do that when I'm watching a movie with someone. Those that watch Seinfeld know what I'm talking about. You put in more George and take out that annoying guitar segue music and you've got a DEDICATED viewer, baby!!
