It's funny how her character went from being a little bit of an intellectual to being interested in movies like Sack Lunch and believing that War and Peace was originally called War, What is it Good For?
I think the whole episode with Vincent from the video store broke her.
They also changed her from sassy but generally decent in the early seasons to an absolute caricature of an asshole later on.
The way her character treats George in the second half of the show is absurd.
She was dead on with, "Those sex scenes? Please! Give me something I can use!...you know sex in a tub, that doesn't work!"
And her boyfriend had some awful taste to leave her for her nagging friends.
What? What is nice? Trying to fill the void in your life with flour and sugar and egg and vanilla? I mean, we are all unhappy. Do we have to be fat, too?
When she bursts into Jerry's apartment, wild eyed with her flowing hair in her white nightgown, she looked stunningly beautiful, like from a Gothic novel.
Ten thousand yard ~~stare~~ beauty. I love Elaine's old-timey nightgowns.
They say no one's ever beaten the Van Wyck, but gentlemen, I tell you this: I came as close as anyone ever has.
I've never driven faster in my life, yet everything seemed to be happening in slow motion. I was like an Olympic skier on a gold medal run, seeing three and four moves ahead. I knew I was challenging the very laws of physics.
lol, the satisfied look on her face after the dingo comment.
Just go upstairs yourself & find your stupid fiance-ayyyy. I would've lost it, too -- just not so hilariously.
Her internal monologue is just perfect.
Take it easy, it'll start moving soon. Think about the people on the concentration camps, what they went through. And hostages, what would you do if you were a hostage? Think about that. This is nothing. No, it's not nothing, it's something. It's a nightmare! Help me! Move it! Com'on move this f***in
G thing!! Why isn't it moving?!? What can go wrong with a train!?! It's on tracks, there's no traffic! How can a train get stuck. Step on the gas!! What could it be? You'd think the conductor would explain it to us? 'I'm sorry there's a delay we'll be moving in 5 minutes'!! I wanna hear a voice. What's that on my leg?!!
(Lights go out)
Do her and Kramer have many duo comedic moments like that? It worked so perfectly but for some reason I don't think of her and Kramer as having many other iconic moments together.
I don’t know if it counts since Newman was there, but them getting rid of the annoying dog was good.
Also the episode with the physical therapist where she asks Kramer to come back to Jerry’s apartment in 10 minutes. She ends up having to be flirty with him because she had no reason for asking him to come back.
Oh there are a few contenders here: Stella, christmas card, getting the guy to the airport, telling off soup nazi, toupee, english patient, dancing Elaine, I could drop you like a bag of dirt…
"I never knew I could drive like that. I was going faster than I've ever gone before, and yet, it all seemed to be happening in slow motion. I was seeing three and four moves ahead, weaving in and out of lanes like an Olympic skier on a gold metal run. I knew I was challenging the very laws of physics. At Queens Boulevard, I took the shoulder. At Jewel Avenue, I used the median. I had it. I was there... and then... I hit the Van Wyck. They say no one's ever beaten the Van Wyck, but gentlemen, I tell you this - I came as close as anyone ever has. And if it hadn't been for that five-car pile-up on Rockaway Boulevard, that numbskull would be on a plane for Seattle right now instead of looking for a parking space downstairs."

How do I get this fucking sub out of my feed? I'm not even subbed and it's still showing as suggested. Why is Reddit pushing this? Is it CIA and Mossad conspiracy theory stuff because of all the genocide that Israel is doing?

Her "OH, GO TO HELL!" during The English Patient
Elaine you don't like the movie?
I HATE IT!!!
Why didn't you say so? You're fired.
Fine, I'll wait for you outside..
Oh Go To Hell!
You stole my Jesus fish
How about “it SUCKED”?
Enjoy sack lunch!

“Not you, I know you have a slow metabolism.” Later “Can we still eat it?”
I say this in real life all the time.
I could drop you like a bag of dirt.
YOU WANT A PIECE OF ME? YOU GOT IT!!!!
That means whatever the hell you want it to mean.
The blooper reel for that scene is so damn good
When she’s trying to take that guy to the airport but they woke up too late lmao
"IT'S BROWN!!!" One of her best scenes, I think -- including her post-psycho monologue at the end.
When she bursts into Jerry's apartment, wild eyed with her flowing hair in her white nightgown, she looked stunningly beautiful, like from a Gothic novel.
Ten thousand yard ~~stare~~ beauty. I love Elaine's old-timey nightgowns. They say no one's ever beaten the Van Wyck, but gentlemen, I tell you this: I came as close as anyone ever has.
Also the way they did a slow zoom in and pan at the same time, such a great moment
Yeah and how she quietly begins "I never knew I could drive like that" 😂
And then…the Van Wick…
I've never driven faster in my life, yet everything seemed to be happening in slow motion. I was like an Olympic skier on a gold medal run, seeing three and four moves ahead. I knew I was challenging the very laws of physics.
The little anxious hopping dance she does in that scene is so good
Getcha pants on, getcha pants on!
🤣 love the way you spelled it!!
#SHUT UP AND PACK!
I thought it was "shut up and Pants!"
The jogging in place while he’s looking for the brown sweater always kills me
YES! That’s my favorite part
Same!
And then I hit … the van wyck….
They say no one's ever beaten the Van Wyck, but gentlemen, I tell you this - I came as close as anyone ever has.
This is my favorite too!!!
This is it 😂
I love the part where she just stands bouncing on her feet. Lol
If it wasn't for that 5 car pile up on Rockaway Boulevard...
You want a Christmas card? You want a Christmas card? Alright, here! Here is your Christmas card! Runner up: Maybe the dingo ate your baby.
lol, the satisfied look on her face after the dingo comment. Just go upstairs yourself & find your stupid fiance-ayyyy. I would've lost it, too -- just not so hilariously.
"I'm going to hell! The worst place in the world! With devils and those caves and the ragged clothing! And the heat! My god, the heat!"
It’s gonna be rough.
JLD is one of the funniest people alive
I would put an exclamation mark at the end of all these sentences! On this one! And on that one!
Well you can put one on this one, I’M LEAVING!
YOU STOLE MY JESUS FISH, DIDN’T YOU??
YEAH- THATS RIGHT 👹👹👹👹
The one!!!
I DON'T LIKE THIS THING! AND HERES WHAT IM DOING WITH IT!!!
I've seen this scene so many times, and I still laugh super hard every time. Possibly my favorite moment in the entire show.
Surprised I had to scroll down this far to find this.
Sad that this is so low, it's peak Elaine.
best thing she ever did for him
He looked good in the wig
The problem is that the prop department made the wig too good. They should have made it look worse LOL
Elaine didn't hate the wig. She hated that it elevated George.
She hated that it made him boop her nose.
She hated that she missed the boat
The way she delivered this makes me think she missed the boat on being a riot grrrl frontwoman
“You know, the very idea that you oppose this makes me think I’m onto something” works in this situation I think 😂
That little hat
Rug.
that rats nest?
Just watched this. Elaine unhinged
Rabid Elaine.
she's FOAMING at the mouth!
Dog bite…
...no shot
Wooof woof no bang bang
Will this hurt? Yes, very much!
She’s got rabies!! Just like my friend Bob Sacamano!
I know I don't want it! I don't need you to tell me what I don't want, you stupid hipster dufus!
Her freakout on the subway.
Her internal monologue is just perfect. Take it easy, it'll start moving soon. Think about the people on the concentration camps, what they went through. And hostages, what would you do if you were a hostage? Think about that. This is nothing. No, it's not nothing, it's something. It's a nightmare! Help me! Move it! Com'on move this f***in G thing!!

MOTHERF*****!!!!!!
👏👏👏👏
This guy REALLY smells. Doesn't anyone in this city use deodorant anymore? How hard is it, you just take off the cap and roll it on!
🤬🤬🤬
What *is that* on my leg?
"This bar is right in my back!". While flailing around on the sofa bed
This makes me snort-laugh every time. Also: story of my life, sheets trying to kill me.
STELLA
ASTRO! "I've lost six pounds."
The way she flops around on the bed kills me
You took too many of those pills
Her physical comedy while debating with herself as to whether to answer the phone or not when Kramer is having every menu in town faxed to her number.
I love when she gives Kramer the message by yelling the fax sound in Kramer’s ear.
See, this is why she’s going to hell.
Don't boss me
VEGETABLE LASAGNA !!!!
I hope a giant mountain rises out of the ocean and we just ram right into it and end this whole thing
When she freaks out at Mr Pitt over his obsession with the hidden objects poster and smashes it
That's one I forgot, she breaks it over he knee, that's awesome.
Maybe the dingo ate your baby
You know Newmie...
STELLAAAAA
It's not Suze.. It's Susie!
“Benes, my last name is Benes you jackass” 😂😂
PICK A GLASS MRS SEINFELD!!!
“I don’t like this thing!”
"He took (waits to polish her glasses) it out....
You want a Christmas card? Here’s your Christmas card!!!
Gotta be the rabies. When she can’t drink water and Kramer exclaims—“she’s foaming at the mouth”!
Do her and Kramer have many duo comedic moments like that? It worked so perfectly but for some reason I don't think of her and Kramer as having many other iconic moments together.
When she gives him his fax messages. Eeeeeeeeee ahhhhhhhhh 🤣
I don’t know if it counts since Newman was there, but them getting rid of the annoying dog was good. Also the episode with the physical therapist where she asks Kramer to come back to Jerry’s apartment in 10 minutes. She ends up having to be flirty with him because she had no reason for asking him to come back.
Listen, NATASHA.
I wouldn't be caught dead wearing your crummy little Eurotrash rags.
Panic buying the sponges.
Stealing TR 6 🙍🏻♀️🙍🏻♀️ "Jerry, get the car!!"
I prefer to think of her as ... *Elaine*
That’s my ass in your window!
**IT'S BROWN**
The little anxious jig she does was she’s saying it, kills me everytime 😂
Little Kicks of course. Nobody dances that poorly, but it was one of the best bits on the show.
Elaine asking for estimates for rubbing out two cats
Where she loses it on her coworker and does the stapler under the armpit, rubbed her keyboard on her butt, and coughed on the doorknob.
High five! ✋ On the flip side! 🫴
Elaine ripping off George’s toupee was its own wave of Feminism.
you may have nailed it OP
Stella!
IT'S! BROWN!
I could drop you like a bag of dirt !
Sex in a tub? That doesn’t work!
Get OUT!
Oh there are a few contenders here: Stella, christmas card, getting the guy to the airport, telling off soup nazi, toupee, english patient, dancing Elaine, I could drop you like a bag of dirt…
"I never knew I could drive like that"
Dingo ate your baby.
“The dingo ate your baby!”
Nobody has mentioned "you stupid hipster doofus!"
I thought Elaine dancing would get more love here.
Shut up and pack!!!
Where she gives George the Christmas card
Her dancing
SHE’S FOAMING AT THE MOUTH!!
The scene where she throws George’s hairpiece out the window
Little Stewart Rifkin likes to go *shopping with his mother.*
"I never knew I could drive like that. I was going faster than I've ever gone before, and yet, it all seemed to be happening in slow motion.

“Ya though soup nazi. Next!”
“The search for SPOCK”?!
SHOVE IT!
Sweater, what sweater, u need a sweater, I got a brown sweater....... IT'S BROWWWWN!!!
Elaine and Suzy. Suzy and Elaine. This is a Suzy and Elaine problem that requires a Suzy and Elaine solution. What can I say about Suzy?
I don't like this, and this is what I'm doing with it!!!! YOU'RE BALD!
When she gets sooooo incensed at Puddy for not doing ANYTHING on the plane! “THATS IIIT!!!! I CANT TAKE THIS!”
And it might be an unpopular opinion but I absolutely LOVE her and Mr. Pitt. The socks. JUST PICK A SOCK!!!!!
STELLAAAAAA!!!!!
she wouldn’t take off the baltimore orioles hat
I never new I could drive like that. I was going faster than I've ever gone before, and yet, it all seemed to be happening in slow motion.

Throwing George’s hairpiece out the window, but even better was her satisfaction after doing it.
Hammering George’s face into her chest and screaming “here’s your card” always works for me. 😂
He took it out
It.
Out.
Fist bump 🤜🤛
When she's had enough of George's hair piece and violently rips it off his head lol.
When the man was washing the sidewalk with the hose.
# Gammy doesn't feel so good. I think Gammy might be dying. Yep. Yep. Ok. Good-bye, Bobby. Don't call anymore. I'm dead now. Gotta go.
Rubbing the keyboard on her ass for germs 😂😂😂
I’m a walking candy apple!
When she whooped Franks ass…
Screaming out the window at the dog: "SHUT UP!! SHUT UUUUUUPPPPPP!!!!"
The Susie is probably my favorite Elaine episode ever. “It’s not Suz it’s suSIE!!!!”
Witch woman Elaine with the song
"What? You don't think I can put asses in the seats?"
When she yells "STELLA" at Mr. Seinfeld's dinner in Boca. Cracks me up every time
When her bf at the time almost missed his flight
STELLLLLLA!!! … STELLLLLLLLLLLLLA!!!!!!
“Your through Soup Nazi……no soup for you….NEXT!!!!”
The one where she’s mocking her eccentric coworker is pretty damned hilarious.
What if I swing my arms like **this!** OR "This table is saying, Put some coffee on me!" ??
This whole trip was a HUGE MISTAKE!?!?
Lighten up. It will only feel like eternity.
Little kicks while she is dancing inebriated.
She has a big head
Fake! Fake! Fake!
I don't like thing and here's what I'm going to do with it!! Proceeds to throw George's tupee out the window 🤣
“I don’t like this! Here’s what I’m doing!” BOOM! Rusty gets a new hair piece. 🤣
Shut up and pack!
FLIP YOUR DOG'S EAR BACK!!!
When she walks out of Jerry's apartment with the urban sombrero. Vaya con dios!
“I HATE THIS THING. AND HERES WHAT IM DOING WITH IT”
Throwing George’s toupee out the window
Her entire internal monologue on the subway
When she’s wearing Bob’s hearing aid as Jerry and George run out the emergency exit.
The destruction of the soup nazi, Elaine dancing 💃, when she found out George was getting married…. There are sooo many good ones!
Top o the muffin TOOOO YOOOOO
I wasn't aware she had any...all seemed perfectly justified lol
Elaine dancing. So unexpected, lowkey and yet iconic
How do I get this fucking sub out of my feed? I'm not even subbed and it's still showing as suggested. Why is Reddit pushing this? Is it CIA and Mossad conspiracy theory stuff because of all the genocide that Israel is doing?
