He really was the funniest character on that show. I'm realy surprised he hasn't caught on in anything else.

I never really liked the way they described that show as being about "nothing". It was about four really stupid people. Stupid is funny and that show was hilarious.

BTW was the username "Drake" from the epidode "The Drake" or "Drakes Coffee Cake"? I have always wondered.

The part was well written and Jason Alexander delivered the lines real well ... it was the writers who made the George character that much funnier.

I suppose that is probably usually true. Although he was funny in Duckman too. Maybe he has been lucky to get good writers a couple times.

edit: My handle is actually sort of a contraction of my full name. Usually I get asked if it is for the explorer or the hockey player.

That's surprising. Because Larry David is not funny.

& Kramer was supposed to be Larry David's neighbor, right?

As far as Costanza, I've always liked the line "It's my time to live, baby !!" (From the buffer zone episode.)

"You know, George, the ocean called. They're running out of shrimp."

"Oh yeah, Riley? Well, the jerk store called. They're running out of you!"

"What's the difference? You're their all-time best seller."

Jerry, just remember, it's not a lie if you believe it.

You know I always wanted to pretend I was an architect.

The sea was angry that day, my friends. Like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli.

Hi, my name is George, I'm unemployed and I live with my parents.

When she threw that toupee out the window, it was the best thing that ever happened to me. I feel like my old self again. Neurotic, paranoid, totally inadequate, completely insecure. It's a pleasure.

My father was a quitter, my grandfather was a quitter, I was raised to give up. It's one of the few things I do well.

Believe it or not, George isn't at home. Please leave a message at the beep. I must be out or I'd pick up the phone. Where could I be? Believe it or not, I'm not home.

You've been living a lie? I've been living... like twenty.

She went shopping for some shoes for the wedding, and yada yada yada, I'll see her in six to eight months.

I figured since I was lying about my income for a couple of years, I could afford a fake house in the Hamptons.

I WAS bald.

But I really want to leave my mark this time. Like remember that summer at Dairy Queen when I cooled my feet in the soft serve?

"A donation has been made in your name to the Human Fund"

Look, Jerry let's face it. I've always been handicapped. I'm just now getting the recognition for it.

I just threw away a lifetime of guilt-free sex and floor seats for every sporting event in Madison Square Garden. So please, a little respect. For I am Costanza, Lord of the Idiots.

I was free and clear. I was living the dream. I was stripped to the waist eating a block of cheese the size of a car battery.

I don't have a job, I have no place to go. You're not in the mood? Well you get in the mood!


and finally...

George Costanza : Guys, hitting is not about muscle. It's simple physics. Calculate the velocity, v, in relation to the trajectory, t, in which g, gravity, of course remains a constant. [Hits a home run] It's not complicated.

Derek Jeter: Now, who are you again?

George Costanza : George Costanza, assistant to the traveling secretary.

Bernie Williams: Are you the guy who put us in that Ramada in Milwaukee?

George Costanza : Do you wanna talk about hotels, or do you wanna win some ball games?

Derek Jeter: We won the World Series.

George Costanza : In six games.

"Are you kidding? I love velvet. I would drape myself in velvet if it was sociall acceptable".



"Jerry, A George divided against itself can not stand"

(elaine enters)

"YOU'RE KILLING INDEPENDENT GEORGE"





Frank: Like an animal. Because of her, I have to sit here like an animal! SERENITY NOW! SERENITY NOW!
George: What is that?
Frank: Doctor gave me a relaxation cassette. When my blood pressure gets too high, the man on the tape tells me to say, 'SERENITY NOW!'
George: Are you supposed to yell it?



Frank "Starting tonight, we're having a sales contest. Whoever sells the most computers by the end of the week, gets a water pik"

Estelle (from off screen screams) "You're not giving away the water pik"

Frank "SERENITY NOW, SERENITY NOW"
