15 Seinfeld Episodes Guaranteed To Make You Miss The Show

15. The Pitch/The Ticket

"So, we go into NBC, we tell them we got this idea for a show about nothing? I think you may have something here!" -Jerry The truest example of art imitating life you will ever see on television, George (who was written to be a caricature of Larry David) and Jerry go into NBC and pitch an idea for a new sitcom about... nothing. The actual show, however, lends a hilarious series of hijinks that prevent the show from being picked up including George staring at the cleavage of the network president's niece, George having a meltdown in the network president's office over the whole "nothing" concept, George deciding he's Ted Danson (wow, George can't do anything right, can he?) The show actually did end up getting picked up by the network a few years later, but Jerry and George of course never make it to Los Angeles. Another equally hilarious subplot involves Kramer getting kicked in the head by Crazy Joe DiVola leading to a serious concussion that has rather hilarious side effects, including him only putting his pants on one leg, shaving one side of his face, and randomly blurting out celebrity names. This ailment hits an especially new high in hilarity when he has a court date to exonerate the sleazy Newman from a speeding ticket. Yo-Yo Ma.
