I haven't seen this one, but it's great. The characters are so familiar you can construct the whole thing perfectly in your head, now I don't really need to see it. Although I can't picture Elaine's apartment. Was that a regular set?
The script is put together like a Swiss watch. Every line fits perfectly in place. Kudos to the craftsmen involved.

- atlanta90210 3y agoMaybe the downloadable text of the script was generated by OCR with minor errors?
- billforsternz 3y agoWas this intended as a reply to me? OCR errors aren't going to broaden the range of sets used!
- code_runner 3y agoI think Elaine had a couple of apartments! Kramer helped her with the car next door once. Anything with puddy. I think the keys episode and of course sponge worthy!!
- PrimeMcFly 3y agoReading the transcript still isn't close to actually seeing the episode. Is this some sort of younger trend, like people who watch 30 minute movie summary videos and then say they don't need to watch the movie?
- billforsternz 3y agoWell I'm 62 but anyway. I mean I know what you're saying but I can hear and see the voices and expressions in my mind's eye perfectly, because the show has a consistent style. When Jerry is struggling with "reservation" and "scalper" I know the facial expressions he'd use. Otherwise it's all about the dialogue so I feel I'm 75% of the way there. It's a long way from Wikipedia's plot summaries for beloved movies; Eg Die Hard 3, the incredible 10 minutes roller coaster slalom through Manhattan is rendered as "McCain and Zeus travel to the Wall Street subway station". Something like that.
