At a restaurant with his parents, George accidentally bumps into a woman who turns out to be a modeling agent. The idea of wearing such an ostentatious shirt while promoting a benefit for the poor outrages Elaine. The next day, Kramer delivers the shirt to Jerry, who realizes that he had inadvertently agreed to wear Leslie’s puffy shirt on The Today Show. Leslie says something in response, but they can’t make out what it is. When Jerry and Elaine have dinner with them, Kramer explains that Leslie is a fashion designer and has designed a new puffy shirt “like the pirates used to wear.” Elaine tells Leslie that Jerry is making an appearance on The Today Show to promote a Goodwill benefit to clothe the poor and homeless. The important parts of the plot are bolded below.Īt the beginning of the episode, Kramer is dating Leslie, a “low-talker” whom everyone struggles to understand due to her quiet speaking voice. Just like research papers, it’s fine for me to borrow information from another source as long as I give credit in the reference.
Due to my laziness this weekend after a long week at clinical, I am going to be citing the plot from Wikipedia. As with most Seinfeld episodes, there are 2-3 plots that occur separately that manage to connect by the end of the episode. While Seinfeld does have an episode with a physical therapist that I would like to discuss in a future post (“The Kiss Hello”), today I wanted to discuss the 66th episode of Seinfeld and considered one of Larry David’s favorite episodes: “The Puffy Shirt”. Seinfeld is an excellent comedy that showcases the awkward scenarios we find ourselves in during life, and showing the negative side of our characteristics in a funny and memorable way. Main character Jerry Seinfeld, a fictionalized version of the actor playing him and a stand-up comic like the real Jerry George Costanza, a fictionalized version of Larry David played by Jason Alexander and a “short, stocky, slow-witted, bald man” Elaine Benes, played by Julia Louis-Dreyfus and an intelligent but sometimes shallow woman and Cosmo Kramer, played by Michael Richards and basically the extreme version of the strangest man you have ever met in your life. Created by Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld, it follows 4 friends (no, not those Friends) in their day to day lives in New York City. Even if you have never seen an episode, you have heard of the show Seinfeld at some point in your life. I am excited to start the new year with this post on one of the funniest sitcoms to ever come to television. Hello everyone! I apologize for my extended absence from writing but I have been busy with a clinical rotation, the holidays, and applying for jobs and residencies.
