LAST EPISODE! In the midst of trying to perfect a call to her friend Jill, Elaine gets sentenced to a year in jail for mocking instead of helping a carjacking victim. The series finale of Seinfeld was divisive at best and I have dissected all the reasons why I feel it fell short of the massive expectations back in 1998.

On a personal note, this has been the best creative endeavor of my life - 3 years, 10 months and 3 weeks making 7,800 minutes of content - thank you for listening!!

Hey lovely listeners! Turns out, I need a bit more time to prep for the finale episode! Thanks for your patience and not pulling a Susan and bawling your eyes out.

Elaine ditches the boys in a traffic jam so she can get home and commence her Sunday Weekend Wind Down! Her attempts do not work out, but she does get to make-out for a second under the bleachers. This episode is grand in scale as far as production, but it falls short overall. Only ONE MORE EPISODE TO GO!!

Thanks to Kramer thinking she has a personal fax machine, Elaine is forced to get a new phone number with the dreaded 646 area code. She thinks she solves the problem by getting a dead grandmother's 212 number, but her grandson keeps calling his "Gammy" which leads to a visit from the fire department bashing down Elaine's door. Some of the best JLD moments are in this episode, which always sneaks under the radar for me. Enjoy!

Elaine's sugar craving caused by all the office cake parties leads her to inhale her boss' antique investment. This plot is very silly, but whenever we get to see Elaine's office relationships blow up due to her impatience, it's always a good time! Enjoy!

Elaine drowns her sorrows at a work party by drunkenly making out with a colleague, which could really hurt her associate status! This plot starts out with great promise, but then takes an unfortunate and unfunny turn. JLD gets some fun moments, but the title of "Episode Scene-Stealer" belongs to the brilliant Sonya Eddy for her return as Rebecca DeMornay.

Puddy is religious and thinks Elaine is going to hell. The idea of going to hell doesn't bother her, but Puddy not caring isn't going to fly! This is one of the best storylines for Elaine and JLD gets to flex her comedic muscles in this classic episode!

Elaine dates a man whose race is under scrutiny - is he black, white... Irish? This episode tackles a racial issue in a hilarious way and JLD gets a wide range of comedic moments. This plot is another example of Seinfeld being way ahead of its time. Enjoy!
