Our Commentary
The good OCB is the only thing that is below the level of excellence set by this hilarious episode. One of the tops in my Top 50, The Pick holds a special place in my heart. The opening scene of George and Jerry is simply priceless. It is LD writing at its very best. This episode has so much packed into its 22 minutes, it's as if we are watching four episodes. One: The Pick. Two: The Nip. Three: The Zip. Four: His buttocks are sublime. George is great at the therapist and even better while trying to convince Susan to get back together with him. On a separate note, Season 4 could easily be retitled the season of 2 parters because nearly every episode is a continuation of a previous episode. Overall the episode can be retitled to Mr. David's Opus, his opus magnum that is.Adam - This episode thru 2 siyums did not make my Top 50, but after having to learn what Seinfeld is, I've been reborn, I feel invigorated, and thus I feel like placing it into the hall of fame. Simply a job well done. In other words The Pick is like how Andre Agassi plays tennis: Perfection!! Larry David you are ear delicious (as I cross my arms and enjoy my great line) Beautiful beautiful. That is all I have to say.
