The Merv Griffin Show - S9-E6

Trivia: When Kramer is hosting the show and starts getting a little nervous about Jerry's "questionable material" he tells Newman to put on a tape and it starts playing some music while he talks to Jerry. The music that he puts on is the same music they used in the episode "The Pilot (2)" for the "Jerry" pilot.

The Finale (2) - S9-E24

Trivia: In the Seinfeld Finale, Jerry and George have a conversation in the jail cell about the positioning of a button on George's shirt. For those viewers who don't know or don't remember, that is why George asks, 'Haven't we had this conversation before?', because this is the same conversation that started off the series in the very first episode.

Trivia: Frank Costanza's distinctive way of talking was actually the result of Jerry Stiller constantly forgetting his lines.

The Chaperone - S6-E1

Trivia: When Jerry is talking about going on a date with Miss Rhode Island, Kramer says "they're never in contention." He really wasn't exaggerating. At the time of the episode, the highest a Miss Rhode Island contestant placed was 3rd runner-up (1968) and other than that, they never were even in the top 15.

The Muffin Tops - S8-E21

Trivia: Newman's appearance in the episode is an obvious reference to Harvey Keitel's character The Wolf in "Pulp Fiction". Before Newman arrives, Elaine mentions that he "makes problems go away" just like The Wolf. Newman even uses the same "If I'm curt" line.

The Junk Mail - S9-E5

Trivia: At the beginning of the episode we see George on The Couch in Jerry's apartment reading a copy of GQ. On the cover is Marissa Tomei who George has a major crush on and in another episode had a dream sequence involving her in his apartment.

The Secret Code - S7-E7

Trivia: George's secret code is revealed to be Bosco. Earlier in the episode, when he is arguing with Susan about the secrets they keep from each other, he ends the scene by saying "We're out of Bosco."

The Revenge - S2-E7

Trivia: The idea of George returning to work and pretending he didn't really quit was based on a real-life incident. Before co-creating "Seinfeld", Larry David once yelled at a "Saturday Night Live" producer and stormed off the set (he was a sketch writer), only to return the following Monday and act as if it never happened. He actually got away with it.

The Burning - S9-E16

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode, when Puddy is farewelling Elaine on the street, he is standing on the sidewalk and leaning through the driver's window. The following shot when she pulls out quickly, you can see through the windows of the car that Puddy is nowhere to be seen.

Chosen answer: George does mention his brother in the episode "The Parking Space". They actually really never mention anything that contradicts the fact he had a brother though, it just isn't mentioned.
