Does anybody knows why Seinfeld did not accept to make one more season of his show? I'm sure money wasn't the problem... [Seinfeld has claimed that he wanted to "go out on top". He was done with TV and wanted to venture back into stand-up comedy.] Answered by EmilyGrace

Does anybody knows why Seinfeld did not accept to make one more season of his show? I'm sure money wasn't the problem... [Seinfeld has claimed that he wanted to "go out on top". He was done with TV and wanted to venture back into stand-up comedy.] Answered by EmilyGrace During one episode, Jerry is dating a woman who's name he can't remember, but it rhymes with the name of a part of a woman's body. At the end he yells out the name to her down on the street. What is the name? [The name is Doloris. The body part it rhymes with starts with a "C" and is a bit too private to say here and keep the site clean.] Answered by Garlonuss Is it ever mentioned across the series (clearly or vaguely) why Jerry and Elaine broke up? [Not specifically. There is an earlier episode where they hint that they broke up so that they could remain friends because they were better as friends than as people romantically involved.] Answered by Zwn Annwn I know the pilot was shot and shown in 1989, but were there any other episodes shot and or shown along with the pilot? [No, The Seinfeld Chronicles (the first episode) was filmed and broadcast by itself, and eventually the series was picked up by NBC. Only then was the next episode - "Male Unbonding" - filmed. The next episode to air after the pilot was "The Stakeout", almost a year after the pilot was broadcast.]The Suicide (series 3)
When George and Elaine go to see the psychic, the psychic tells George that she sees a Pauline. George gasps and says that his brother once impregnated a woman named Pauline. Since when does George have a brother? Was this brother shown or mentioned in any other episode? [It was just a case where a script from earlier years contradicts a script from later years,a show we got to know a lot better. They actually really never mention anything that contradicts the fact he had a brother though, it just isn't mentioned.]The Stranded (series 3)
When Jerry and Elaine are at the party, Elaine is talking to a woman who keeps saying she cant find her fiance. Then Elaine, in response to the woman saying, "I cant find my baby," says to her, "maybe the dingo ate your baby." Can anyone explain this phrase? [It's a reference to the 1988 movie "A Cry in the Dark" starring Meryl Streep (who uses an New Zealand/Australian accent, as this movie was based on a true story). Elaine is paraphrasing a line from the movie.] Answered by IngabritzenThe Switch (series 6)
When Jerry and George are discussing how to do the switch (hence the title of the episode) what is the name of the melody that accompanies their conversation and who composed it? [The composer of nearly all the melodies that are heard in the show is Jonathan Wolff. As far as the name of the the melody; little interludes such as this are rarely named because they are not complete songs, just intro's or outtro's that are written to help move the action of the show along.]The Susie (series 8)
Where can I download the background music from George's answering machine? (I know it's the theme from "The Greatest American Hero", but I don't know where I can get the version that is fast and without vocals.).You may also like: Friends | The Simpsons | Titanic | Family Guy | Star Wars
