Movie Reviews of Seinfeld: Season Three
Movie Review: Groundbreaking, unique, and original...
Summary: 5 Stars
The preeminent show of the 1990's decade, Seinfeld grew from an idea of "a show about nothing" into a sacred pop culture icon - not that there's anything wrong with that.
The show follows the life of comedian Jerry Seinfeld and the exploits of his "short, quirky, bald guy" best friend, George Costanza (Jason Alexander), Jerry's neurotic neighbor Cosmo Kramer (Michael Richards), and Jerry's ex-girlfriend Elaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus). Through the years, they're joined by loveable cast of characters that includes Newman, Uncle Leo, the Soup Nazi, Frank and Estelle Costanza, the Bubble Boy, and countless others.
The third season DVD offers some of the best episodes yet, with classic lines such as "I think it moved" (episode 18) and "These pretzels are making me thirsty" (episode 28). The third season also includes the famous two part episode guest starring Keith Hernandez (episodes 34 & 35), the episode where George has sex with the cleaning woman (episode 29), and the famous pez dispenser show (episode 31).

The DVD Report
Movie Review: These pretzels are makin' me thirsty!
Summary: 5 Stars
Like many other reviewers/fans, I believe that the third season of Seinfeld was definitely a head above the first and second seasons. Of course, there some great shows in those two seasons, but Season 3 is really the time when the show defined itself and started to perfect its elements. They found their comfort zone for plots, jokes and even some experimentation, such as an episode taking place outside the usual realm of location ("The Parking Garage", "The Subway" and "The Limo" all come to mind).
Some of my all-time favorite Seinfeld episode are from this season. I loved "The Parking Garage" because it was able to take such a minimalistic idea and make an entire episode out of it. "The Pen" builds up to a hilarious climax where Elaine gets high off painkillers and Jerry's eyes get discolored from diving, forcing him to awkwardly wear sunglasses to a party. Then of course, the first time I saw "The Limo", I was truly taken by surprise and absolutely had to know how it ended, and what an ending!
There were also some episodes that took unusual elements and made them strangely charming. One example is in "The Dog" where Jerry has to watch a dog while his braindead drunkard owner (who's very funny during his onscreen time!), is at a hospital halfway across the country. "The Subway" is able to construct and execute four totally different plots, one for each of the characters, until all is brought to a head in the Restaurant at the end.
Overall, this collection brings together some of the greatest and most interesting Seinfeld episodes in the show's run. Add to the four discs all the extra features, and this is a purchase worth every last cent. Buy it and spend countless hours enjoying it! Thanks for the time, and peace.
Movie Review: Classic Seinfeld!
Summary: 5 Stars
Whilst we had to wait until the next season (4) for Seinfeld to win an Emmy Season three gave us some classic episodes which should have been at least nominated, such as The Parking Garage, The Limo, The Subway and The Parking Space to name but four. And who can forget everywhere, people at work and wherever else you went the next day reciting "These Pretzels are Making Me Thirsty" from the Alternate Side episode when it first aired.
This DVD set contains all 22 episodes of season 3 as well as the standard features which are on all other season sets, ie Yada, Yada, Yada Comentaries, In the Vault Deleted Scenes, Notes About Nothing and Inside Looks Brief Interviews. Again we the viewers learn interesting stuff from these features such as Jason Alexander explaining during Inside Look of The Pen how he threatened to quit after George being left out of the episode. Whilst there was a lot of great information I was a bit disappointed with the commentary on The Parking Garage as it was just a couple of directors on an ego trip telling us what a great job they did, how the garage looks real and stuff like this. Surely Jerry or someone could have joined them to make it more entertaining. Also included on Season 3 is Kramer vs Kramer where we meet Larry David's inspiration for Kramer his old neighbour Kenny Kramer.
Like all the Seinfeld seasons this is a must own for any fan of comedy. Seinfeld is one of those shows you just watch over and over again eagerly awaiting the lines you know are coming.

Summary: 5 Stars
Although Seinfeld found massive popularity in its later years, it always had a contingent of naysayers who derided the show as being about nothing. Let's not even mention that most TV shows are about nothing and don't have the guts to admit it, but Seinfeld inevitably caught the mood of the times, containing the requisite amounts of jaded cynicism and irony that the 1990s embodied. Seinfeld was a show that probably wouldn't be made today, with networks looking more at bottom line than inspiration, but, in a rare instance of network foresight and courage, NBC stood by the show and watched it become the biggest show ever, surpassing even its "older brother", Cheers. It's too bad NBC didn't learn from their successes, to which their current fourth place status can attest.
The third season was pivotal. Although the show's ratings weren't exactly smashing in the previous two seasons, NBC decided that the show needed more room to grow. This season produced some seminal episodes, like "The Library Cop", "The Pen" and especially "The Parking Garage", which laid down the show's look and feel. By "The Keys", the season's final episode, Seinfeld the show had evolved into what we all remember it as: clever, wacky, and oddly insightful into modern-day life.
Sony really went to town with these DVD sets. Tons of deleted scenes, documentaries, commentaries (voice and text), etc. There's enough material here for even the biggest Seinfeld devotee to learn more. It's a great value, and you know you want it anyway.
Movie Review: Thank GOODNESS !!
Summary: 5 Stars
F i n a l l y the wait is over! Fans of this series, which defined an entire generation and beyond, are breathing a collective sigh of relief that the actors finally got it together and ironed out the bumps to make this DVD release happen. Perfect timing before the holidays!
The writing in this show was ingenious. Jerry and Larry had their entire hands on the pulse of New York City and its inhabitants. From major to minor details, you will find subtle and sometimes outrageous tidbits of life in every show. It's facinating to watch how each episode winds up smoothly connecting each separate story, scene for scene, which unfolds in one laugh after another. This was no ordinary sitcom. For anyone who didn't watch this in the '90''s, now is the time to grab ahold of a classic comedy masterpiece.
Season 1 & 2 are great, but this set, Season 3, is a MUST HAVE, containing memorable classics like The Pez Dispenser, The Boyfriend, The Keys, and The Pen. The extras are fabulously fun to watch, you'll laugh just as hard if not harder at the outtakes and bloopers. The crisp, clean quality of each episode makes our old VHS copies horrible in comparison. For years we suffered through shows in syndication, trying desperately to complete each season with minimal commericial interruption...but alas, our reward -- this is the gift to give yourself, the Faithful Fan, who now can sit back, put your feet up, and enjoy hours of non-stop entertainment, Seinfeld style!
